Gee, how did I miss this tag? I was wondering what happened to the Cowash challenge. Anyhoo, I cowashed this morning with Suave Tropical Coconut drenched in evoo. It was much much better than without the oil added.

Just cowashed with VO5 passion fruit smoothie

 

[Aggie]

I did a kalpi tone cowash this morning and I still like this powder. Too bad they don't make it anymore. I only have a few of them left and will be sad when they're all done.

Cowashed with: Shea Moisture Purification Hair Masque

Wow,
I never thought to use that product as a cowash! I must try it!

 

[silenttullip]

cowashed Friday with Hair One olive oil. Scalp feels much better and oh were my curls popping.

 

[Aggie]

Cowashed this morning with Tresemme Naturals Radiant Volume Conditioner. I really like this conditioner but my oh my, it's so expensive as a cowash conditioner for me. Never the less, I may repurchase it as it seems to detangle my hair pretty good as well.

Hey ladies,

I have been slipping on the weekly cowashing for the last 2 weeks. Dealing with finals for the last two weeks and they are getting the best of me. Anyways, I will be finish with school in 1 week and will graduate with my masters degree in 2 weeks.

I am trying to get back on schedule this week. I still do my weekly wash but my hair is missing my cowash. I notice when I wash it on the weekend there are more tangles. I think the shed hair gets caught up in the hair and causes the tangles. This has never been a problem before so I attribute it to not cowashing.

Does anyone notice this when they don't cowash? Or what issues do you have when you skip your cowashing?

 

[silenttullip]

Rozlewis congrats, proud of you

yes I notice tangled sheds when I don't cowash and more ssks

 

[g.lo]

Cowashed tonight with jessicurl Shea something!

Me too! I had a lot of tangles and some breakage yesterday because I skipped a cowash session... being lazy... never again...

Just came from a conditioner haul which I enjoyed a bit too much. I purchased about five bottles of VO5 moisture milks, a bottle of Suave black raspberry and white tea, and a big bottle of Suave humectant. Im getting ready to cowash with one of these bottles of deliciousness now

 

[BGT]

I clarified with Suave and co-washed with As I Am coconut co-wash. Then I did a treatment with V05 peach condish, Aussie 3 minute miracle, olive oil and coconut oil. Mixed it all together and microwaved it for 30 seconds, applied it section by section and covered with a cap. Rinsed after 15 minutes. I lost no hair in the detangling process and my hair feels like butter.

 

[kennylee2013]

I used VO5 and I put vatika coconut oil in it. My hair thanked me lol.
