Coffee,Tea,ACV,AVJ,Ayurvedic&Powders Challenge 2014

Wash day!

Currently baggying with amla/fenugreek oil.

Then powder wash. Yes, there will be shikakai in it *shudders*. Will just be sure the water doesnt drip in my eyes again. :look: I will also include a load of fenugreek powder (not cooking it or anything), amla, and tulsi.

TOR-Tea & Oil Rinse (with ceramides) under moisture DC. Tea = oolong, burdock, nettle, lemongrass (NEW!)

DC = Indigo (fattens my strands) mixed in AO Island Naturals for an hour w/heat cap for 15min.

Final Tea & ACV Rinse. Tea = red rooibos and bamboo.
 
I DC'ed overnight with a mixture of amla and Brahmi powder mix with some conditioner. i did not like the mix as it was runny but truth be told my hair felt strong and it was easy to detangle when i rinsed the mixture out of my hair today. Ayuverdic powders are the truth ladies

Thank you for providing us with this Excellent Review:yep:
 
Forgot to do my Tea Rinse (after Cleansing my Hair with HH Dark Honey Rinse).

So, I will do my Tea Rinse after I rinse this Protein Rx I will do it under my Steam Rx.
 
Now I gotta think of a way to do my Coffee Rinse? Maybe right before my ACV (final rinse).

I'll all thrown off now.:spinning:

And I had it all planned out so perfectly!:sad:
 
So as much as I love my ayurvedic powder blends. I also love my Keracare. I've been eyeing the Cream Cleanse because it has the powders in it. Anyone tried it? How were the results?
 
Thanks Ms. T! Now that ya'll twisted my arm on this catnip, I'm adding it to my vitacost order. :look:

I would love to join this challenge! I was in this challenge 2012 and I love acv and henna. I fell off the tea rinses but would love to incorporate them again. I'm taking out my crochet braids this week and plan on using all these Ayurvedic powders I stopped using as well. I'll post when I do my first treatment this week. I'm on page 13 of this thread and will read the whole thing for new ideas!
 
*Under dc herbal rinse
Rose petals
Hibiscus flowers
Nettle root c/s
*Final herbal rinse
Rooibos
Marshmallow root
Rosehips
Catnip
Thyme
Fenugreek seed
Saw palmetto
Also used the under dc herbal water to mix my mud wash recipe
Used shikakai, neem, and Amla in the wash.

My last wash I was experiencing too much shedding for my liking. So last night I sprayed my roots with fenugreek tea, DC twice (once with protein, once with a moisturizing conditioner).

My hair is seriously soft and guess what... The shedding stopped immediately because of the fenugreek tea spritz.

Fenugreek is my new staple, use it every wash day.

Tea spray under protein dc, then sprayed again under moisturizing dc, and will spray again under leave in before blow drying.
 
I've got henna in:yep: Today is fenugreek Sunday so I'll likely do a fenugreek treatment after (even though I don't normally dc after).
 
Pulled out: Catnip for next wash day.:yep:

But I've been toying around with the idea of steeping a Marshmallow Root/Burdock Root Combo.:grin:
 
I missed my herbal cleanse this weekend because I went to the Salon. Got a good deep conditioning and rollerset. Everyone commented on how nice my hair looked before it was shampooed. That was definitely my nightly coconut oil massage and Vatika & Wen moisturizing and sealing. The next three weeks my hair belongs to me for pastes and deep conditions. I feel so good about letting Ayurveda methods dominate my regimen for long healthy hair.
 
Steeping tea (Moringa, Burdock Root, Nettle, Rooibos, Fenugreek, Peppermint, and Marshmallow Root) for this weeks co-wash.

Those were nice compliments (coming from a Salon).

They usually want to tell you "what you need"

Good Job!:up:

That's so true! I started coming back there again because I got exactly what I wanted for me relaxer...gently texlaxed roots. He didn't try and convince me to bone straight my hair or anything. He applied it and sent me to shampoo it out. I love him. I never should've left a few years ago.
