I was wondering this myself. Just using a little bit of this as a final rinse wreaked havoc with my hair. I tried to use it just as often as I did my acv rinses and that was :nono:.

I'm really sorry to hear that. :(
I personally love PC, but it really is such a hit or miss product. It just doesn't get along with some folks' hair, and for others, it's wonderful.

I can't imagine DCing with it though, and I've read reports that leaving it on too long will jack your head up.

The first wash day after a relaxer, I'll leave it on for ten minutes and then follow with a cold rinse. But normally, I'll only let it sit anywhere from 30 seconds - 2 minutes.
 
Have henna in my hair right now. Will DC with Sitrinillah and AOHSR. Trying to use up the AOHSR will not repurchase. I found the Sitrinillah under some other things and it was almost empty so I mixed them with some HOT oil (mostly EVOO and EVCO). Will DC with and without heat for some unknown period of time. I will twist it up for the week since I work.
 
I'm still hanging in there.

I'm prepooing with V05 Passion Fruit Smoothie. I'll detangle after 20 minutes ago and put my hair in loose twists for a wash w/ Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar (Chagrin Valley). Then I'll DC for about 30 minutes with Yes to Carrots. I've never used it before, so hopefully it'll be a delightful experience. :lick: Afterwards I'll do a tea & ACV rinse, apply leave-in, moisturize, seal, & twist.

Hmmm. I need to henna this week. ...maybe Friday.
 
I'm still keeping up with my DCs. I'd straightened my hair last week and had a bunch of cones in it, so I washed with ORS Creamy Aloe, then DCd with Shescentit Tea Tree & Grapefruit mixed with garlic oil and Amla oil under my steamer for 20 minutes. My mother commented on how quickly my hair shrunk back down to nothingness :grin:! Good--no heat damage!
 
Washed with Profectiv MegaGrowth and DC w/Suave Radiant Brunette on Friday. My hair was really soft and shiny. Tonight I deep conditioned with LeKair Cholesterol conditioner under the dryer for an hr. then co-washed with Suave Radiant Brunette, cool blow dry and twist for twist-out.
 
npryncess--Did you change your screen name? I don't have you listed as a challenger but I will go add you now.
 
Did my 1st post relaxer DC. Used Burt's Bees Avocado pre-poo treatment, Aquage Sea Extend (protein) then 30 min under the dryer with Moisture Velvet.

I got a half gallon when I went to DR recently lol. BUT the first time I tried it (when I fell in love), it was from this website:

DC'd last night on dry hair w/ Phytojojoba, Motions Moisture Plus (trying to use up), EVOO, and honey under the heating cap for 30min, then around the house for about 2 hours. Wonderful feeling.

I wanted to try the DC on dry hair then shampoo, which turned out ok, but it just didn't feel right shampooing after that wonderful DC. I tried to keep it to my scalp, and was too paranoid to do a second lather, which I am accustomed to doing. Followed up w/ a rinse of Hello Hydration, then Porosity Control.

My hair feels great. Though, I'll stick to Shampooing first, hopping out of the shower to DC, then hopping back in to finish up.

I used Silicon Mix Leave-in and Infusium 23 Leave-in, air dried overnight, then put some Joico Color Intense Shine Serum (I forgot what it's called).

Again, hair feels great. I think it's the EVOO and Honey.

Also, this is probably the first time that I used only moisture DCs. I've been sort of addicted to protein, and I'm trying to see what will happen if I do moisture only every so often.
 
Did a Fantasia IC Reconstructor for a few minutes and I'm currently DCing with Silk Elements Megasilk Olive Moisturizing Treatment.
