Delightfully Delicious DC Challenge 2011 (Part 4)

Currently Dcing with Joico Moisture Recovery Balm under heat for 20min in preparation for rollerset and flat iron (getting a small trim 1 inch or less)
 
Did a scalp pre-poo with tumeric and tea-tree oil, felt pretty good. Shampooed and did a light protein tx with a mix of Alfaparf rigen and a teensy bit ofJoico K-pak,now Dcing with ORS replenishing mixed with a little clear rinse :yep:

So my hair feels really, really soft, much softer than usual. Hella soft, like I let it air-dry with absolutely nothing in it and its still soft. Hmmmm what did I do different? I used my usual poo, proteins and DC so that can't be it. I added clear rinse to my DC last week and I didn't get this result, so that's not it either. I think it was something in the pre-poo, I'm thinking the tea-tree oil; I keep reading that people say it makes their hair soft. I'm going to do that pre-poo again next week and see what happens.
 
I dced and my hair feels soft and pretty moisturized. Yesterday I applied a minut amount of ORS replenishing sealed with argan oil and put my hair up. Today I washed with Joico chelating shampoo, then put aphogee 2 min on my ends, rinsed, then applied a combination of humecto on the length/roots and humective on the ends/dryer areas. I put on a cap and intended on using heat, but just left it on for an hour. Rinsed and am now ponytail rollersetting. I think I will do this twice a week. :yep: I will cross my fingers for improvements.
 
DCed on Tuesday under my steamer after a 2 week hiatus due to travelling for work. I used a mix of DPR 11+, Wheat Germ oil and AtOne Reconstructor. 30 minutes later and my hair felt buttery soft, even after rinsing out.

I am dearly in need of a good moisturising leave-in though.
 
DC with JBCO protein conditioner for 20 min, and then aloe Vera moisturizing conditioner added aloe vera gel for 30 min both under a plastic cap and steamed towel.

Steamed for 30 mins with La Bomba Deep Treatment w/splash of honey. It's been in my stash for quite sometime, it's an alright conditioner. Enough for me to use up instead of throwing away which was my first thought, won't rebuy though. :ohwell:
 
Protein DC on dry hair with SD Shea What and AOGPB.
Moisture DC with Enso Cacao Curl DC + BFH Green Tea Avocado + hempseed oil.
 
Dc'd overnight last night with Shea Moisture Anti Breakage Masque

Shay72 - how is this for you? I was going to try it this morning but changed my mind. I'll have to use it this week. :yep: I ended up DCing with Avocado & Silk and the last little bit of SD Vanilla Silk.

I liked it alot. It's one of those products where I instantly knew ShayShay :giggle: would love it. I could tell the difference that day but this is one where I definately need to follow up with a moisturizing conditioner (which I never do) or just find the right one to cowash with. I felt my hair was a bit dry. I did it overnight so it may be different if you only did yours for an hour or so. I remember the same thing happened with SSI's Fortifying Masque and I just had to find the right combo.
 
DC'ed overnight and at the gym with Kerastase Oleo Relax + Coconut Oil. Can someone please PM me a hair steamer recommendation?
 
I didn't have time to do jack.....Im having to cram for exam over here but while reading Im sitting here rubbing my hair and oh goodness ,too dry. I quickly split it into some fat twists and slapped some suave almond and shea, a lil aphogee balancing moisturizer on my ends and some roux porosity control conditioner on my roots. Threw on two plastic caps and sitting under dryer. The last time I detangled I did it while still in the shower and put on grease and combed out while still in the shower. Saves a lot of damn time keeping this stuff wet while detangling this stuff lol
 
DC'd under the steamer with AO RM, 3 vitamin E capsules, Avocado and wheat germ oil added AO Island Naturals during cool down.
 
I did my usual yesterday --- I did a clarifying wash before slapping on AOHSR and Aussie Moist. Left that on for 30 min, then put my hair in 4 pig tails, sealed with EVCO/shea butter and sat under a cool dryer for 40 min.

My hair is in the best condition I can remember. My new simpler reggie may be the ticket!
 
Hi all i am new to the forum but would love to be apart of this challehnge. Today i will DC with ORS replenishing pack..... I think still deciding.:yep:
 
I didn't check in on Friday but I DC'd with my oil mix on my scalp and put Vatika frosting on the length of my hair for 2 1/2 hours (the last 20 mins w/ heat)
Then I put Aphogee 2 Min Reconst. on my hair and I sat under the dryer for 6 or 7 mins
Then DC with AOHSR mixed with DB Pumpkin Seed Condish and peppermint oil for 3 hours (the last 20 mins was with heat)
 
I need something to remind me to DC every week (I never remember lol) so I'm in. (: I just dc'd yesterday with some Ramoni Triple Silk and a few drops of almond oil. I used my heat cap for about 30-40 mins or so. My perpetually dry hair felt really soft after. Hopefully I'll get into the habit of deep conditioning every Sunday. :grin:
 
Finally repurchased all of my favorite conditioners! I should be steaming sometime this week with what I have left of my AOHSR.
 
This week I DC'ed with a couple of My Honey Child's condish (experimenting with adding my oil mix and without it...of course I like it better with my mix)

A couple of nights ago I used the Honey Hair Mask (with and without my oil mix) and the Organic Shea Butter Hair Paste (with and without my oil mix). I divided my hair in for section for the experiment.

I found the HHM to be a little more moisturizng (I will probably use after protein and henna treatments) and the OSBHP made my hair feel really strong (maybe do to the avj and kelp powder). Oh yeah I did add a splash of avj to the HHM. I like both but nothing too WOWing! I will keep working with new concoctions until I get it right!!! :yep:
 
I finally got my hands on elasta qp soy oyl conditioner and treatment. I prepood with the conditioner and my hair felt like butta with no heat. I tried the treatment and it is way too thick. The results left me underwhelmed. Im thinkiing of using the conditioner as a dc and the treatment as a prepoo instead.
