Re: CONDITIONER JUNKIES.... GIVE US YOUR FAV FOR COWASHING, DC, LEAVE-IN, DETANGLING,

Hey MrsJaiDiva can you be a bit more specific about how you make this? What is AVJ and what are ceramide oils? How much of each ingredient do you use? Thanks!

AOWC = Aubrey Organics White Camelia
AVJ = Aloe Vera Juice
The ceramide oils I use are Hemp, and Wheatgerm. The rundown on ceramides can be found here: http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=591205. I love them...they've done wonders for my hair, especially with my heavy protein use.

I don't measure for the spray bottle....I just sort of sight guide it. About 1/4 to 1/2 of an Inch of product, and then the rest is all water. If taken to adding 1/4 teaspoon of ylang ylang now, for smell as well as for hair health. The contents don't blend, so you have to shake it right before spraying. HTH!!
 
Co-wash: hairvitalize balsam and protien
Deep conditioner: profectiv mega growth
Leave in: motions spray leave in(daily); after wash leave in: still searchin so for now it hairvitalize balsam and protien
Detangling: motions spray leave in
Protien: Organics hair mayonnaise

Conditioning: Renpure My Pretty Hair Is Parched, Aubrey Organics White Camelia (this conditioner is The Truth & The Way!) , Aussie Moist

Deep conditioning: Silicon Mix mixed with Aussie 3min Miracle, AOWC, Crece Pelo

Protein: Mega Tek Mix , Aphogee 2 minute

Other purposes (state how you use it): Using that bottle of Treseme that everyone in the house's hair hates as a shave lotion. It's a big bottle, so I should be hairless till I'm in my 80's...

Re: CONDITIONER JUNKIES.... GIVE US YOUR FAV FOR COWASHING, DC, LEAVE-IN, DETANGLING,

Co-washing: Various VO5 conditioners

Deep conditioning: I've added oils to VO5 and it worked really well so it's my favorite in terms of efficacy and price

Leave-in: Just Natural Skincare Detangler but I wanted to use something more accessible on the ground... haven't found one yet but haven't needed it either

Detangling: Just Natural Skincare Detangler

Protein: I've been adding hydrolyzed proteins to conditioners to make protein conditioners but I've found that Irish moss, coconut water and coconut cream as a homemade conditioner make my hair strong but very soft also.

Other purposes (state how you use it):

For the 10% of time I don't have my hair straight or blown out, I give my hair a break by wearing a moisturized afro. I do it with Aussie Moist conditioner, grease, and water. Ya'll, when I tell you how much slip and moisture I have with those two mixes! It's a dream!
