Coffee,Tea,ACV,AVJ & Ayurvedic Challenge 2013

Ok, so between the rose tea experiments and the rosewater, my hair is telling me to stop with the roses already :lol: even the rosewater makes it feel a little dry after a while.

Back to the same 'ole tea spritz tonight!
 
@DarkJoy

I bought those Rose Petals because of you.:lol:....:blush:

Maybe I should mix them with my Blue Malva, Calendua & Hibiscus Flowers.

How were you using the dried Rose Petals?

I got a really nice Loose Blend from @curlyhersheygirl. Maybe I'll put a few in that blend.

*I don't want 'dry':nono:
 
Ohh nooo IDareT'sHair! I think as a leave in it's too drying for *me*. However if used during or before the washing process it is a nice addition. But remember, I have fine and porous hair so it might work better for coarser stranded ladies. Still testing it out on my DD's course hair. :look:
 
I'd also like to add, it kept me from getting sick ALL WINTER. Not even a damn sniffle.

Rose petals are better to drink--remember one cup is equivalent in Vitamin C to 80 oranges!! So that is rather acidic for the hair

Thank you for those Great Tips!:huggle:

I will keep all of them in mind whenever I decide to use them.

I may try them in a flower bomb with the Loose Blue Malva, Calendua, Hibiscis and Chamomile and maybe sprinkle a few in that blend I got from Ms. Curly.

I will proceed with Caution.:yep:
 
My Peppermint Tea Rinse was very Cooling. This will make a nice Rinse for Summer.

It will make a Great Tea Rinse on the Hot Days Ahead.:grin:
 
I'm joining! :grin:

Bought some rooibos tea to experiment with and used it today under my DC. I haven't even rinsed it out yet, and I'm in love. :love5:

I have now made it my life's mission to buy every tea in the world. :lol:

So far my stash just consists of rooibos tea, HH Jar of Joe, HH Black Coffee and Marie Dean Coffee & Kokum dc. I see lots of teas in my immediate future *goes to etsy and fills my cart*
 
Washing my hurr tonight. I'm brewing Oolong, hibiscus, and burdock tea for tonight. I might throw in some coffee from this morning if there is any leftovers.
 
Forgot to brew tea for yesterday but I did seal with jar of joe. I'm going to stop the avj spritzes. I need to mix it with something moisturizing or else it dries my hair out.
 
I did a cassia, amla gloss last night to get back some of my texture. The henna, done 1 week after my texturizer made my fine hair bone straight. I added some clove powder, olive oil, jojoba oil and honey. It was really runny but it felt so good going into my scalp. There were a lot of tiny rocks too but I managed to get them all out.

I did follow with shea moisture masque with heat but my hair still felt dry. I finally got the softness back using the moisture retention poo and restorative conditioner. Overall I love the results!! Cant wait to do my next treatment.

I have half a day of housework ahead so it's the perfect day for the following routine:

Henna. Wish I had some hibiscus to make it darker, but whatever. I love how my hair loves it.

After henna, it's tea time w/oolong, burdock and nettle and ceramide oils (sunflower and grapeseed) under DC. If she is feel stiff-ish the DC will be AO blue camomile. If she still feels too soft, I will use Aphogee 2min.

After DCing, I will follow-up with an ACV rinse.

I have been afraid to do a protein right after ayurvedic powder treatments. I usually wait till the following week. How did this session go? Did you end up using a protein or moisture dc?

Now lets see if I can remember what I put in my tea for steaming with last night. I just pick up whatever is nearest to hand.

Hmm! Hibiscus, Oolong, rose petals, burdock root, a little marshmallow root, nettles, and that's all I think. I'll update you if i remember any more.
 
Today I will be using IPN tealightful hair quencher under my MD coffee DC and then a final acv rinse with hairveda...
 
I have been spraying my braids and scalp twice daily and sealing with olive oil for a week and a half now. I truly hope this cuts the shedding down tremendously so when I take these braids out, I don't have any problems. My spray consists of 1 cup of water with 1 Oolong tea bag, a heaping tsp of nettle, marshmallow and burdock. I just added 1 black tea blag to my spray for this weekend. Hope this works!!! It was perfect for under my DC when my hair was loose...
 
Okay so If Im gonna tea rinse, I have to watch it with the protein in my other products for that wash. Do y'all find that to be the case?

Do your poos, conditioners and leave-ins have protein when you're using tea as a final rinse?

What products do you suggest for use with a tea rinse?

Sprayed my hair down with Soultanicals Hair Sorrell. :lick: This is truly, hands down, the best spray moisturizer I've ever used. Complete awesomesauce.
