Hey! I wanna join! Hope it's not too late! My hair has been breaking a lot more than I would like it to. So I'm cutting my heat usage to only using the hood dryer on medium heat at home for DCing twice a month and the hood dryer at the salon for rollersets twice a month. All other DCs will be overnight or for at least an hour with no heat. Tonight I mixed up a lil bit of everything so I can get rid of it faster (and experiment with new stuff!) and left it in for abt 45 mins with low heat. My current conditioners are not quite doing it for me right now. I'm excited!

Hey Welcome to DDDC kupenda :) It's far from late, join at any time. Part 3 is just getting warmed up :yep:


I would like to DC today, with ORS replenishing.
 
To rid myself of products, I will be doing the following this week....
1) identifying all product stash items
2) selling/swapping those I don't use/need/want
3) cataloging all items that I keep
4) making wash/DC schedule to use up the products I keep
 
can you put me back on the list? I still maintained DC'ng every week but didn't really check in as frequently as I should have in part 1 &2. I DC'ed this past Sat with SE Mega Moisture DC with Mozeke Avocado moisturizer. Will DC either tomorrow or Thursday with the same concoction.
 
Dc'ing under the dryer now with Jasmine's Avocado Silk. It smells sooooooo delicious. :grin:
 
Mixed up an ayurvedic paste using amla, henna and cassia powders. Liquids were ayurvedic tea, aloe vera juice, honey, vegetable glycerin and coconut oil. I rinsed the paste out with water and my hair was strong but not dry. I co-washed and detangled with shower comb, used a diluted acv final rinse. I applied rice bran/tea tree oil to edges and crown and distributed oil through out hair using denman brush. I applied some Nexxus conditioner to edges and crown and distributed conditioner through out hair using denman brush. Braid hair to dry.
 
Hi myhair84 :wave: welcome back :yep:

Sooooo I didn't DC yesterday because of the rain :look: but I am determined to do it today. Light protein tx with Joico K-pak reconstuctor on relaxed hair, DC with ORS replenishing.
 
DC'ing now with:
Aloe vera gel
Burts bees pre shampoo treatment (although I plan to co wash)
Giovanni deeper moisture con
avocado and wheat germ oil
no heat - using a cap and will be going for a walk so total duration about an hour.
 
I am soo in, please add me. DC once a week no problem. This gives me a chance to obssess over mym hair again.
 
DC, w/ Tiiava Naturals Coffee and Cupuacu Deep Moisturising Conditioner(1st time using this) then applied their Green green t leave-n, sealed w/Enso Naturals Moss n Marshmallow Root Serum :)

I did a test run DC. I parted my bangs in five sections and applied a different conditioner to each section. I wanted to try them out at the same time. I used:
Nexxus Humectress
CHI Deep Brilliance moisture
HE HH
Baba de Caracol (sp?)
Elasta QP Intense something or other

On the rest of my hair I used v05 moisture milks mixed with grapeseed oil and jojoba oil. I put on a cap and got under the dryer for 45 minutes. Results: let's just say that I will definitely be picking up some humectress when I go out today. The baba snail stuff smells ok but it didn't really wash away. It just turned nasty. Everything else was mediocre.

I love DCing :)

I need to use up alot of regular condish that i have ie VO5. If i add oils, say, Hot Six or Olive Oil to it, will it then be classed as Deep Conditioner?

I'm joining!!!

I'll DC weekly, with....whatever I have in the cabinets/drawers/closets.
I need to use it all up.

I'll either do an overnight DC or one with heat for 1/2 hour on freshly washed hair.
 
Dced last night with jasmine's hibiscus dc again. I used heat this time but I did it before my shampoo so I wouldn't get in and out of the shower. Definitely prefer dcing after I've cleaned my hair.
 
I am so thrilled with Tiiava Naturals Coffee and Cupuacu Deep Moisturising Conditioner and their green -t leave-n, that it had me skipping with joy, my four year old son was like mom I like your hair let me touch it!!!! this stuff is ph balanced awesome awesome ingredients.. skip skip skip skip.....

So i pre Deep Conditioned with VO5 Moisture mixed with Almond Oil and Aloe Vera Juice. I then co-washed with a clarifying condish to avoid too much build up and then conditioned with Aussie 3 min Miracle mixed with Almond oil. I then set in large braids to air dry.

I think i dc'd twice but my hair feels great.

Yay! Welcome Whimsy :yay:
 
Put some Bear Fruit Hair Ginger Macadamia Conditioner on dry hair and will leave it on for a few hours before I get under the dryer for 30 or so minutes. :grin:

I have high hopes for this, because it softened my hair immediately upon contact and the ingredients are yummeh. :lick:
