Coffee,Tea,ACV,AVJ & Ayurvedic Challenge 2013

Thanks @divachyk for the info on the coconut milk. I came in here to say how it's ABSOLUTELY going to be an ongoing part of my regimen:yep: I rinsed with it last night and my hair felt amazing...going forward though I'll use it when I use protein because it is that moisturizing! My hair felt good but almost too moisturized. I steamed with it last time and I find the rinse to be easier to do and just as effective so that will be my method of choice. OK so its coconut milk for 2013. (I don't like coconut oil in my hair so hopefully this is a good way to get some of that coconut goodness in:yep:).

ETA: It's also amazing on the new growth:yep:

Ok Nix08 so what are you're steps now? I want to try it a variety of ways with also coffee, tea and avj. I'm still trying to figure out the best way to incorporate all of them and not miss out on each ones individual awesomeness?
 
Hi Babygrowth:wave: I'm a throw everything but the kitchen sink in, kinda girl:look: I tried it under my DC with tea and I think it was Millcreek biotin conditioner under steam the first time and it felt good. My newgrowth felt softer/more manageable. It was hard for me to apply since I applied on dry hair and I didn't want to get in the shower to apply it. This time I included it with my rinse. So I used about 1 ounce of coconut milk, 2 ounces of coffee and 3 ounces of tea. After getting my hair wet I poured that over my head, massaged it in (and you feel the creaminess of the milk), squeezed out the excess, then applied a small pump of oil and then AOHSR. I let that sit while I showered and rinsed it all out. I just remembered, it felt so good rinsing out that I forgot about my leave in tea/avj final rinse until I saw the bottle.

That's why I don't always like trying new things...if it's good then how can I not use it often:look: I'm trying to make this a treat but I don't know it takes nothing to pour a little milk in with my coffee and tea:grin:

:wave: Thanks! Lol @ everything but the kitchen sink! I definitely need more moisture in my regimen! I like that it almost made you forget about your tea/avj final rinse! So I think I will try your mix of coco milk, tea, and coffee as well as try it as a prepoo. I got to make the tea/avj work so maybe only use my most moisturizing teas with it for a final leave in. Since I brew Njois rinse with 6oz of water I will use 3oz with the coco milk rinse and 3oz for the avj final rinse! Whew! Man this is a lot of configuring :lol:!

Ya but that's what makes it extra fun right:giggle:
 
@IDareT'sHair I've added it to my rinse out blend which I'm brewing now overnight.


Used coconut milk again tonight...with my coffee and tea mid wash rinse. Tea/avj for my final leave in rinse. And the last of my amla/bhringaraj and rose petal tea during my very quick DC.

Dc my bang today,for 1hr KB-coffee con mask..Rinsed bang with espresso cream,Marshmellow leave-in,tutti fruitti moisturizer,sealed HH black coffee..Bang feels super..I didn't seal my bang with any oil,because HH black coffee has plenty,wanted to see how it would do on its own.

*I'm still on bed rest,was told can't wash my entire head till,next week.
I did rub HH black coffee all over my scalp..


Happy Hair Growing!

Hey ladies! Has anyone ever tried Njoi's ayurvedic henna gloss? I'm thinking of taking the plunge and trying it out for my first henna/ayurvedic experience (figured i'd kill two birds with one stone :-))

After this vatika pre-poo, I'm going to use a runnier mix of shikakai and amla to cleanse and follow with an oolong rinse and follow with a AO DC this time. Wondering if I should give the ACV rinse a try....
 
Ooooo! I changed it all up since I posted! lol. I made the shikakai and thought to add some black henna to keep these greys well hidden...

THEN I said well, now's a good a time as any to try that goat's milk powder. So I put it a teaspoon of that. Waiting an hour for it to cure. Gonna walk the dog while I wait and as my head pre-poos (added Jasmine oil to that too!)..

DarkJoy Goat Milk Powder is one of my favorites..Such a smooth rinse & the added moisture/protein it gives is incredible...I like egg & yogurt powder too..

*Cant wait to hear your results.
