Coffee,Tea,ACV,AVJ & Ayurvedic Challenge 2013

[DarkJoy]

@Saludable84 I use a mix of tea/coffee and coconut milk together as a rinse under my conditioner when I'm cowashing (it would probably be just as yummy under a DC). What tea's are you using? I do not use black tea...I use pretty much all other teas but not black tea, it makes my hair feel hard.
The acv, I use as a final rinse, with a splash of acv to about 8-10 ounces of water...just enough to have the color change and have a hint of smell.
And to answer your question...if I don't have coffee or tea on hand I won't wash my hair

Wow Nix08 you go hard! But so do I. A DC is not the same without tea!

I can only use herbs. No coffee, black or green teas as they make my hair hard too.like you, my Acv is small dilution too. About half a teaspoon to 16 oz water or tea. Does the trick..

Dag all this talk. Is it wash day yet?!

My tea is already steeped and on chill awaiting my regi later today. Every tea steeping session, I plan to grab something different but I always opt for my tried & true. Perhaps I will venture outside the norm after my TU. I don't need any issues up in this ng right now.

 

[Jobwright]

Rinsing with black, peppermint and Rooibos tea this morning.

 

[DarkJoy]

I Indigo'd 2 days ago. However, it was quite stinky so am gonna do an Ayurvedic wash day right now using my regular powders. This time, I'm mixing the powders with a 'growth blend' tea of all fresh:

spearmint, ginger, garlic (stinky too!), burdock, nettle

I'll then put the softening teas under my garlic DC for extra oompf:

Red Rooibos, oolong

ACV rinse.

 

[mshoneyfly]

I rinsed out my hendigo after 2 hours at 4am bc it was too runny AND stinky. It still gave me decent color though. My hair is a little too dark for my liking and most of my dark red from the henna, hibiscus, coco powder is gone. :Oh Well:
At least my grays are covered. I wont be using indigo again unless I want jet black!

I have been spraying my hair with saw palmetto and lavender to moisturize. Also sealing with avg and HBCO. My hair loves it

I need to brew a tea mix for wednesday when I wash. Might do a Shikakai cowash. Also plan to mix up a nice DC with Ayurvedic powders to follow. I cant wait!

 

[Lita]

Sprirz with Soultincals wrappers delight,HH macademia soft butter,Lace Naturals Ayurvedic oil on my scalp & sealed with Lace Naturals on my ends..

Happy Hair Growing!

I am surprised tsa didn't pull me aside for questioning. I had so many foil bags and teas full of hennas and powders it was pitiful.

I am too lazy today to do any rinsing or anything. Maybe Thursday.

I can't see any mentions on my IPhone. PM me if it is a must see. Allons y

I checked a box of hair products full of conditioners too! Too much hair in this household for travel sized containers.

DarkJoy...Oh what a role model and pusha you are!! That tea sounds yummy! I went to an orientation session this morning for the upcoming semester. They had a continental breakfast with Tazo herbal infusions...calm with rose petals, Lotus, Wild Orange with licorice ...I had been to Tim Horton's already. Be prayerful!

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@DarkJoy

Gurl....we know how she Roll

Shooooooot...I'm wondering if she scored some of that lotus...i mean if it accidentally 'fell' into her bag and how it might make the hair feel .

 

[Saludable84]

I can't wait to do my coffee rinse. Oh man, I want to wash just to use it again!

Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together

 

[felic1]
