Delightfully Delicious DC Challenge 2011 (Part 3)

[tiffers]

I put Jessicurl WDT on dry hair and left it in for a few hours. Don't feel like getting under the dryer or washing it out, so I'll just let my hair dry and pretend this was an extreme leave-in.

 

[cutenss]

I'm in too. I have not been DC in a minute, due to life, moving, etc. Anywhoo, this TX heat is killing my tresses. I am DC overnight with some Elasta QP Soy Oyl Deep Conditioner. This is my first time trying it. I used the shampoo. It was OK. I guess 'cause I am not a big shampoo person. The only shampoo I like is the ORS Aloe Shampoo. I may take it back and just get another tub of the DC.

I have a Huetiful steamer.

 

[halee_J]

Hey welcome back cutenss I feel you on the ORS shampoo its like my HG shampoo

tiffers lemme know how your "extreme leave-in" goes

 

[cutenss]

Hi halee_J I have not been on the hair side in a minute. Thats probably why my hair is showing her I have not been giving her the attention, that she is use too. Thanks for adding me

 

[Nix08]

I need to think up a yummy concoction for this weekend. I think the starring role will go to Aubrey Organics GPB

ETA
Ok so the DDDC will be the following on dry hair under the steamer for about 30 minutes.
Aloe vera Gel
Silk Amino Acids
AO GPB
Giovanni 50:50 balanced hair remoisturizer
Avocado & Wheat germ oil
I liked adding another during the cool down phase last week so I'll do it again and add Giovanni Deeper moisture.

Steaming this bad boy concoction in right now...think I'll add aveda during the cool down instead... I don't really like the smell of it so I'm going to use it up quick

 

[Shay72]

Will steam with amla followed by a steam with Claudie's Protein Conditioner.Not sure what moisturizing dc I will be using.

 

[missjones]

Why have I been ignoring this thread for so long?

I usually DC once a week with ORS Replenishing Conditioner or Organics Olive Oil DC. I put a conditioning cap on and then put a wave cap on over it. I leave that on for at least an hour.

Well ladies....I moved to another city in the last week, so I only have had time for co-washing. Today I plan to get back on track, will DC with Alter Ego Garlic condish after co-washing with BFH Cotton Marshmallow Cleansing Condish.

 

[Shay72]

I decided I will use Step 2 (moisturizing condish) of Hairveda's Methi Sativa. I have like 2-3 bottles of Step 2 and 1 jar of Step 1. This drives me crazy.

 

[Lanea87]

I cant wait imma DC on Wednesday with Amla and Brahmi using it in a paste....I will be back later to say how!

 

[tiffers]

Just put Nature's Gate Hemp Conditioner on dry hair and will leave it on for a few hours... might even forgo washing it out.

 

[Xaragua]

I am going to DC overnight with my SSI Banana brulee mix with EEVO.

 

[gigi2011]

Steamed for 30 mins with Silicon Mix Bamboo and honey. Felt good going on and rinsing out

 

[tiffers]

So I got bored and decided to rinse out the Nature's Gate (it was pretty nice and moisturizng ) and shampoo with Roux Moisturiizing Shampoo.

I'm now sitting here with L'anza Healing Moisture Kukui Nut Conditioner and I'll keep it on overnight. I loooove how this stuff smells. It was fantastic when I was relaxed, so I'm curious as to how my hair will react to it now.

 

[Aireen]

halee_J, I think since I only condition for 15 minutes that I'm violating the rules of the challenge so I should be removed, sadly.

 

[halee_J]

Aireen, so that's the longest you condition for now? How often do you do it? I wish my hair could be conditioned in 15 mins.

 

[YoursTrulyRE]

What brand steamers are you ladies using?

I have a Huetiful. It's okay except it doesn't get the back of my hair well when I face forward so I do 20 min facing forward and 20 min facing the back. When I get more room I am going to order a full size steamer and sell or give away my Huetiful.

 

[tiffers]

^^^ Where did you get your steamer? I'm gonna be buying one this coming week and wanna shop around.

 

[Lanea87]

Ladies do you know if Amla or Brahmi can be saved after mixed for a DC?

 

[kupenda]

Doing a ten minute DC with my aphogee 2 min under the dryer. Gonna rinse and follow with at least 45 minutes of my silk elements under the dryer and then let it cool. Add some grapeseed an jojoba oil, then DC without heat for awhile longer. I haven't seen any split ends, but I have noticed breakage in my crown area so it looks like I'll be upping the DCing!

Dc'd Saturday for 2 hours w/ AOHSR.

Aireen, so that's the longest you condition for now? How often do you do it? I wish my hair could be conditioned in 15 mins.

Once a week, halee_J... I don't even have to do it that long... my hair is usually conditioned in 10 minutes or 7. Depending on the directions, my hair doesn't feel any softer leaving it on for extra time. I just leave it in that long because I can do other things in the shower like exfoliate, clean brushes and bath gloves, etc.

YoursTrulyRE - Mine is similiar I tilt my head forward slightly and that works out. It's not uncomfy for my neck and the steam reaches my nape.
