I am a newbie who is also stretching for the first time. I've done some searches here and based on what I've read I've made a few purchases. I bought 100% aloe vera juice and dispenser to moisturize my new growth. From what I've read its pretty good. I also invested in some Vatika by HairVeda, coconut oil and jojoba oil. The general tip that everyone gave on most of the threads I read for stretching was to moisturize, moisturize, moisturize.....

Can some elaborate on the benefits of oil co-washes as well???

oil washes help to add slip to your hair
to aid in ease of detangling

i'm sure there's more to it that others can add!

I like to condition wash with cheap conditioners, Suave, VO5, Sammy, Pantene, Dove, Herbal Essenes.

 

[Prose Princess]

Aussie Moist is the only one I've used so far for cowashing, but it's pretty awesome! I've also purchased TRESemme Remoisturize because I read some ladies' raves on it, but I've yet to try it. The ingredients look pretty yummy tho.

I like VO5 MoistureMilks. It really helps to tame that NG along with Mizani Thermasmooth conditioner. Of all the conditioners I have these two are my winners. I buy over and over and over again.

Thanks Mrs R... how long are u stretching for?

I'm trying to make it through Spring and Summer. I started out saying only 12 weeks, but now that I'm almost there, I'm feeling like 18-24 weeks. We'll see how I feel about the state of my hair at 18 weeks, if I'm still ok then I'm going keep pushing through August.

How long are you going???

-Aussie Moist - I buy this in the big pump bottle
-Suave Humectant-again, I purchase the large bottles. The new formula isn't too bad either, which is rare!

-Tresemme Smooth & Silky-Staple!
-Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship (LTR)
-Herbal Essences Totally Twisted
-Herbal Essences None Of Your Frizzness
-White Rain Tropical Coconut (WRTC)-Only the original. It's thicker and has better ingredients than the newer fancy bottles.

I also use and love:

Giovanni Smooth As Silk Conditioner
V05 Champagne Kiss
V05 Sun Ripened Raspberry
Hairveda Moist 24/7
Hairveda Moist ConditionPro
Pantene Nature Fusion Smooth Vitality
HE Hello Hydration-haven't used in a while though
V05 Pomegranate
GVP Conditioning Balm

That's all I can think of right now...

Giovanni tea tree hands down... or even Elucence if you can afford it.
I can really tell the difference between using conditioners with cones in them and drug store conditioners compared to using conditioners with no cones. My hair just has a different feel to it. You can also get a liter size of Giovanni tea tree for $12.99 at massagewarehouse.com
