I shampoo'd and DC'd my kinky twists yesterday with Creme of Nature argan oil intensive conditioning treatment for 30 minutes under dryer on cool setting.
 
Steaming in AO HSR for a second time today. I think I've had this DC in for about 2 hours; but only steamed for an hour or so.
 
I'm dc right now with some wen fig & coconut oil. With my schedule think I may only dc once per week :(

DCing on dry hair with an oil mix and Silk Dreams Moisture Cream. Using the body heat I'm generating on the treadmill
 
I dc'd tonight with ORS Hair Mayonnaise mixed with peppermint oil & CoCasta Shikakai Oil. I let it sit for 30 mins while I did stuff around the house. My hair felt so strong and healthy afterwards! Nice start to freshly trimmed hair.

I used AO Swimmers conditioner as a deep conditioner today. Hair is feeling wonderful and strong. It is the vegan alternative to AO GPB but it did not leave my hair as soft as GPB, it was more on the stronger side to me but in a good way.

There must have been 7-10 hairs in my comb after detangling. Then again, it could have been because of the black tea with added caffeine that was in my hair under the AO Swimmer's conditioner.
 
My hair stylist friend got me a really good hook up on Matrix Biolage Ultra-Hydrating Balm. Will be using it for my next DC hopefully on Friday or Saturday. I would tonight, but I'm at my parent's house and my klutzy self left all of my styling necessities at my apartment. :( Can't wait to try it out.

@princesskaha Hi! The first time I made it-
1 cup hibiscus powder
5 drops brahmi oil
4 teaspoons marshmallow root powder
2 teaspoons fennel powder
I mixed it up by adding water,little by little/so it would disolve nicely.After
1 cup plain Greek yogurt/Mixed together..Let sit for 10min so it could stiffen up a bit/but not to much..Applied with a plastic cap 45min...

Or you can add Hibiscus powder & Brahmi powder with your fav lite con/to make it a heavy pre poo or Dc...I use it that way too...

*Keep us posted...

Thanks so much for this recipe I will sure be trying it out...do you notice that ayurvedic herbs change your curl pattern? I have been using fenugreek,amla, brahmi and shikakai once a week since January 1st, and I think my hair is getting straighter. I have done some research and nobody seems to associate ayurvedic herbs with changing curl patterns...any thoughts?
 
I soaked my hair in my mix of amla, brahmi, jbco, and garlic oil overnight. Did a prepoo under the dryer with the last corner of my Motions CPR and put on some MD Vanilla Repair to fill in. Washed, then DC'd with CD Black Vanilla Smoothie for an hour with some heat.

princesskaha Hi! Yes, when I was using henna paste on a regular,I started to lose my curl pattern, my hair became stronger/thicker but I was losing my natural curl pattern...I started mixing Amala/Brahmi/lilttle egg powders with cond,every week & my curl patten returned in about months time.....I stick with hibiscus, Brahmi,fennel & marshmallow root...With no problems...I do this 2xs month...

*Try to limit your use to every other week or once a month & see what happens...Keep us posted...

Why, thank you! at least now I know I'm not going crazy :lol:! I haven't started using hibiscus or marshmallow root yet but if I do as you suggest, and limit my use of the herbs do you think I will see any benefits? To be honest, I still can't say for sure if I'm gaining anything as such: I don't think my hair is any thicker than before the herbs and it's definitely not darker either (as I was told amla would make my hair darker)but I wanted to give it an opportunity to work before I cast my verdict so what do you think?
 
I wasn't able to post before cuz the site was acting funny :ohwell:

Tuesday I Dc'd with CJ Argan and olive for 1hr under a conditioning cap and today I DC'd with SSI avocado for 1hr also under a conditioning cap
 
Currently dcing with alter ego on roots and keracare intensive something on length

Happy Birthday IDareT'sHair!!

I was going to wash and deep condition, until I learned that the hot water heater is broken. Hopefully the repairman can fix it tomorrow and it won't need to be replaced. Oy vey!
