Dc'd for a few hours with Jasmine's Avocado Silk. I liked it much better this time around. :yep:
 
Good morning ladies! Last nite I DCed with a mix of things cuz I want to try some new conditioners but I can't buy any new ones until I run out (SO made me promise) so I used up all of my Aussie 3 minute with a bit of Elasta QPs intense fortifying conditioner. I added a smudge of aphogee 2 minute, a lil v05 moisture milk, plus some oils( grapeseed, castor, kemi, jojoba, vatika frosting, and a smidge of canola) from my oil mix. I did all of this after shampooing with Elasta QPs shampoo for relaxed hair. My hair was greasy but it looked dry so I went ahead and washed. The paranoid chick in me mixed a lil oil into the shampoo cuz I was afraid I would be left with dry hair. I'm really excited to try hairvedas green conditioner. It made my hair super soft when I tested it on a small section of dirty hair. May have to order more...

Shay72 How'd you like the HairAmbrosia dc? *looks at cart and licks lips* :lick:

I'm so torn. I don't know whether to get the HairAmbrosia stuff or a steamer. Dh gave me a limit-- can't get both. Boooo! *flips him off*
 
Saturday is wash day so Imma wash with Crème of Nature Professional Detangling- Conditioning Shampoo, apply the Nexxus Emergencee, rinse out then DC with Giovanni Smooth as Silk Deeper Moisture Conditioner with some Coconut Oil. While still wet apply my LI's and do my braids for my braid out and keep it moving until Wednesday the nxt DC day!
 
just checking in. I will DC with Tiiva Naturals and maybe some castor oil. I am really seeing the good effects of deep conditioning every week. Time will tell at the end of the year when I do a length check (if I remember; I usually don't keep up with those things).
 
Dc'ing right now with Enso's Curl Recovery Deep Conditioning Treatment. :lick:

I like it. Not in love though. Will give it another 1-2 tries. I would get the steamer :yep:.
 
Hey Ladies...

I was just wondering if it was necessary to sit under a dryer when doing a protein deep condition ( a light one such as ORS mayo or replenishing pak), or can I use my steamer like I would with my moisturizing deep conditioners/slap a plastic cap on and leave it in for a few hours?

I both my protein treatments and moisture DC's without heat. Just slap on a plastic cap and do chores around the house :yep:

I steam everything :giggle:--moisturizing dcs, protein dcs, oils, ayurvedic pastes, clays....
 
@halee_J The Elasta QP Ultra Hydrating Conditioner is okay. Nothing to really write home about. It may be one of those "cumulative" type products. It does come in a big tub, like Eco Styler gel. I think it is more of a protein type, than a moisturizing type. Even though both protein and mositurizer is relayed on the jar. I am just going to make sure I follow up with a moisturizing leave in.

I hope that made sense. Since it is on sale at Sallys this month for $5.99, you should give it a try. You can always take it back. That is what I did with the matching shampoo and conditioner.

I did purchase today the Elasta QP Creme Conditioning Shampoo because of all the raves it has gotten here. I let you know how that goes, since our hair only likes the ORS Aloe shampoo.

I hope that review made since :spinning: Sorry I didn't mean to write you a novel :lol:
 
cutenss Thanks! :) I love detailed reviews :yep: Maybe, maybe I'll try it...I hated DPR-11 so much :barf: I'm scared of trying another EQP DC :nono: Girl I used to :heart: eqp products (except dpr-11) so much before they did this big overhaul with the forumla change. The old formula creme condtioning poo was my holy grail! and it smelled like orange creamsicles :lick: :lol: But since they added in all those oils into the shampoo, like avocado and coconut, which my hair HATES it has just been :nono: You should try it though. If you're good with those oils, you'll probably like it. The formula is basically the same just with oils added.
 
@halee_J I have never been an Elasta lover. I hated that mango butter :down: but of course being on this board (pj)...anyhoo, I am hoping I like the shampoo. I bought it from a BSS store, as opposed to Sallys. So "no refund/no exchange" going on here. After this, if I don't like it, I am sticking to my ORS and WEN cleansing. I had been doing the DC overnight. I wonder it would turn out different if I steam? I will try that next time and review it that way :yep:

Lol! thnx!! I hate the dryer and that has been keeping me from doing my protein treatments (bad bad i know :nono:)...bc i thought it was a must....but good to know I don't have to sit under the torture machine :blush:
 
I was planning to DC tomorrow but I think I will take the day to be productive with other household chores instead. Just depends on how I feel tomorrow. I'll DC on Thurs if Sun is a no go.
 
I DCed my braids for an hour with the Elasta QP Intense Fortifying Conditioner. It smelled like bananas. I can't wait to try it on my hair.
 
I need to DC! or cowash. Or something! I haven't had water on my scalp in three days almost. And I forgot to wrap up my hair to sleep last night. NG has my hair sticking uplike a lions mane. I think I'll DC with my new green conditioner from hairveda mixed with a lil grapeseed and jojoba oil when I get home
