Did a tea rinse with: oolong, fenugreek, burdock, rooibos, and black tea. Also added some peppermint oil, my scalp feels soo good. I forgot to update this thread with my experience of the naturally amari fenugreek mask. I don't think it's for me. My hair felt nice after rinsing but those seeds were the devil trying to get out :nono: Will probably end up giving the mask to a friend. I'll be sticking to fenugreek tea.

I agree 100%!! I meant to update this thread and the fenugreek thread. My first mask from NA was really nice and easy to rinse out.. I'm not sure if she used the powder or not but it rinsed out very easy. She didn't package my first order well and the jar leaked some of the mask out (lid cracked). Tye mailed me a replacement jar with my order of two hair gels.

Issue: I paid $5.35 for shipping when I placed my order for the hair gels no big deal. When I went to the post office I had to pay $6.20 for shipping fees due. I emailed her a pic of my receipt and box marked shipping fees due. Tye said she would look into it. I didn't receive a update from her so a week later I asked her about the shipping. She apologized for the delay but didn't offer a refund. Her answer was the post office raised their shipping fees and she wasn't aware. I would never pay $11.55 for shipping. Back to the mask.. The second mask was hard to rinse out. I'm not just saying that because of the shipping issues. I make better masks than the second one that I received. Basically, I have no plans to ever purchase from NA again.

Have you ladies considered the Methi Set from Hairveda? I can't speak on the efficacy of it ,because I have not used it yet, but the Step 1 looks like a normal DC mask. There's no seeds or anything. I'm thinking it's infused with the fenugreek/methi seeds and/or tea, but it's nice and smooth.

I'll go bump a thread about it.

Thank you!! I will read the thread and check out HV site. :) I appreciate your recommendation.
 
MileHighDiva I keep forgetting about the HV methi set! Thank you for reminding me. Adding it to my list of things to get from her mother's day sale :yep:

MayaNatural $11.55?! That's insane. At this point I cant say I will ever place another order either. I like her hemp butter a lot, but I hate paying shipping for only 1 thing unless its a must have. She could have at least added some fragrance to the mask for all the hassle :lol:
 
My Blueberry Leaf Tea Rinse went very well. *Next Wash Day I'll Consider a Pot of:

Catnip
Burdock Root
Saw Palmetto
Green
Red Roobis
Rosemary
Fenugreek
Sage
Hibiscus
Moringa

*Been only steeping 1 (one) Tea at a time lately instead of doing Combos(Kitchen Sink Blends).

I bought some Costa Rica Dark Roast Coffee that I will start using for my Coffee Rinses.
 
Today, I nourished and stimulated my scalp with vatika garlic growth mask then DCer with AO Island Naturals the first 5 inches where my real hair is for 15 min Tomorrow, I will pour ginger and rooibos tea on it and massage. Besides the powders, seems like I can do my regular tea and DC routine with these twists installed.
 
Babygrowth

I like them ALL.:lick:

The Sweet Coconut, the Herbal Hair Dressing, the Green Tea, the Ayurvedic Butter w/Mustard Seed.

The Tea Spritz and the Ayurvedic Oil.

The only thing I wasn't 'wild' about was the Chai Tea one. :rolleyes:

Something in that irritated my Scalp, so I swapped it.

She use to have a Healthy Hair Growth Balm that I loved.:lick: I rarely see it listed, but when it is I jump on it.

Last time, I bought the Family Size Jar of the Herbal Hair Dressing.

I'd like to have the Family Size of the Sweet Coconut.:lick:

I have the set but haven't used it yet. I thought step 1 was a protein conditioner and step 2 was a moisturizing conditioner. I know the jars are a nice size. I will probably end up selling my set on the exchange board.
 
I'm going to try this Nzuri Herbal Hair Wash Powder I've had sitting under my sink for a few months. Never tried washing with powders before...hope its not a traumatizing experience lol. Plan to do an overnight oil treatment prior to.

Sent from my Speak & Spell using LHCF

No I'm not going to use them. I don't need protein that often. I would have that jar for 5 years :nono: That is a waste. I already have enough other protein I'm not using. Not sure what I was thinking about when I bought it.

That sounds nice. Let me know how you like it.
 
Will use catnip today for the first time. Actually drinking a cup right now because I read it's good for stress. It doesn't taste bad since I added honey and lemon to it...pretty good actually. I will do a HOT with evco, DC with SM purification mask, then final rinse with the catnip that I will let sit for about 20 mins. I'm praying for good results.

IMHO it's also the best tea for period pains. Mixed with red raspberry leaf it makes an easy transition to menstruation. For 25 years, it's never let me down when I remember to drink it consistently.

What are the herbs in this @so1913? Just don't make it too thick. Powders seems to work better and rinse better a little on the runnier side. Oil pre-poos are always nice.
 
Shampooed with Natural Oasis tea blend. DCd with herbal conditioner. Baggying with the tea blend now as a setting lotion before putting in my curlformers.
 
Hi Ladies I've been so busy studying and taking my Praxis exam to teach that my hair hasn't seen a good ayurvedic treatment. At least it's been moisturized with Wen and coconut oil daily and tucked away in a wig for two weeks. Yesterday I took out my fenugreek and shikakai and today my hair gets the super treatment it deserves. I love how you ladies are so dedicated. I am too and I'm loving taking this journey with you. Added more hair tonics to my daily intake for optimal results.

Anyone have a tried and true recipe for a hair treatment that thickens? I've lost some thickness due to relaxing and I'm doing everything to get it back and keep it in newgrowth.
