Coffee,Tea,ACV,AVJ & Ayurvedic Challenge 2013

Shedding reduces drastically when soaking vs. rinsing. I know many of you are well aware of this but I just had this "a-ha moment" a few weeks ago. I'm now soaking on dry hair for about 30 minutes before I start my regi. Prior to this a-ha, I was only rinsing the tea through during the regi. I'm loving the soak method much more!

Used this blend as a dc although I didn't plan to wash today I needed to because I felt like I could still smell the neem:nono:

I used the shikakai, reetha, tulsi, amla, eucalyptus, and bhringaraj brew as my first rinse and my hair felt great:yep: I really like that mix and the smell isn't offensive either:look:
Did my usual tea/coffee rinse and a final leave Iin rinse with acv and saa:grin:
 
Wenbev maybe it's just the one thing I can't stomach, but if you do decide to use it please don't visit Canada until you've washed it out :lachen:
 
I'm doing a pre-poo treatment with mahabhringag oil and Dabur Vatika oil. I also spritzed some HTN Follicle Mist on scalp.
 
Ugh... Neem :barf:

However, the best use I found with it so far is to mix it in my dog's shampoo. Swear 'fo God, it kills fleas. I stopped using those flea drops that cost like $50 for 3 pack. Havent had to use flea control in a year.

I follow that shampoo with some strong smelling dog condish cuz... it lingers...Oddly enough my dog likes the taste! :lol:
 
Hello Brewing ladies!! This was my midweek. I misted my hair with spritz, applied olive oil and ceramides and topped with AE hot oil treatment and steamed for 40 minutes. I rinsed and lightly shampooed with SM moisture retention diluted. I then used SSI okree for about 1/2 hour under the dryer on low. I rinsed and applied hemp seed oil to my old lady ends and more olive oil and ceramides to the shaft on top of coffee with Oyin honey hemp for 40 minutes with steam. I rinsed, sprayed with ACV, and sprayed with tea mix. I dried lightly. Used jojoba mix with essential oil to scalp with massage. I applied SD hair milk to hair ,JBCO to ends and HH coconut YUZUlove to seal. Ooh, the ringlets !:look: I am in some type of hair ectasy/gasm under the fan with my baggy on and this bonnet.:blush: I feel so good. I never used to feel this great about hair hygiene and treatments, I just feel splendid.:drunk: Thank you all for your hair friendship and more!!:lol: I appreciate all of everyones support and encouragement! I start orientation for a job next week,so I should be stalking these companies and awaiting BLACK FRIDAY!!! Yes I am shouting!!!:yep:

Doing a CAT tomorrow. Will use coffee, black tea, green tea, mint herb, and hibiscus teas with marshmallow root added. Tea and coffee mix will go on under my DC mixed with coconut milk. I have a nice stash of teas, but now that Fall is making her debut, it's time to turn up with the coffee/tea rinsing and drinking. Will be stocking up on herbs, powders, and teas to make infusions. This brewing routine will be one of my Fall hobbies...fell off over summer.
 
Brewed that Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee for my next wash day. I made my new tea spray of horsetail, catnip, nettles, marshmallow root, hibiscus, rose petals and rose buds, tavo sweet infusion in spring water. They go to the fridge.
 
Doing Henna on Dry/Dirty Hair. (No Indigo)

I'll leave it in about 3 hours and Cowash it out with Hairveda Moist 24/7.

I may do an overnight DC'er with Ynobe Green Tea & Moringa Deep Conditioner.

Rinse in the a.m. and Steam with something else moisturizing.
 
Doing a bentonite clay mask. .. with the clay and the remnants of the refresher tea blend for this week. Will cowash and tea/coffee/oil and acv/saa rinse.
 
IDareT'sHair I am still enjoying it thoroughly:yep: No one who didn't know that I did it noticed the colour. I feel comfortable going for 3 hours next time. I plan to do it every 5 weeks. How often do you do yours?
