Did my first DC on dry hair last night and I really like the results. I used Sitrinilih (sp?) I applied more than I would have on damp hair because I didn't feel like my strands were adequately coated. My other issue was trying to part and apply to dry, knotted hair. I did learn that once you put the cap on and let your body temp heat up the condish it definitely softened up my hair and coated my hair. Well use less next time. Rinsed and cowashed with KBB deep condish, applied leave-ins, sealed and twisted.

Just checking in. Have been keeping up with my deep conditioning. Since my hair is at the moment braided I only deep condition once a week.

DCd on dry hair with Aubrey Organics Honeysuckle Rose with heat (30 min.) after my henna and indigo 2-step process.
My hair was a little dry because I only used a tablespoon of oil in my henna paste. I needed the extra conditioning to soften my hair.
It worked wonderfully and my hair is strong, soft and the jet-blackest I've ever gotten it too!

I must have lost my mind!!! Tried to convince myself that my hair was okay with Pantene RN shampoo (only been using it to wash combs). Mind you, I haven't used shampoo in 1 1/2 yrs. Why was my hair hard, and tangled even after shampooing in sections?
Ne'va again!!!
To fix the problem I'm DC'ing overnight with a mixture of ORS rep. pac, Ojon ultra hydra., 1T castor oil, 1T honey. In the morning I'll detangle, and use AOHSR as a CO.
ETA: The overnight DC'ing worked just fine, and all is back to normal.

I'm always fascinated by how our hair responds to different product products. At least when it's a conditioner, it's easily fixable.

Since my hair is also braided with extensions, I have decided to only DC every 2-3 weeks. My braids need to last a little longer since I pay so much money for them to be installed

I get so lazy sometimes JN and end up doing the single step but I know thta the 2 step henna/indigo treatment yeild the best results for me.

I was a bit shocked. My expectation was that it would be a little dry, but not that it would just flip out on me.
My thought was that I might try to add shampoo back into my reggi, but I seriously don't think that's the right move for me. After I've use up all the R&N for cleansing my scarfs, combs, and denman, (have to keep the budget tight) then I'm going to try a natural shampoo. If that doesn't work I'll give up and stick with conditiioner, and cleansing conditioner.I think the thing that I'm trying to avoid is spending a lot of money on cleansing conditioner. They are wonderful, and my hair absolutely loves them. However, they cost a lot more than shampoo.

Indeed. I washed my hair again (2 lathers) and the gumminess was gone. I've given the product several chances to act right. I'd actually used half the bottle! But I just can't take it anymore. Its no more moisturizing than any other conditioner I have and the gumminess is just too weird.

Just a heads up but...It's weired how natural poos makes the hair feel a little stripped but I still like them because I mix them with a little evoo before adding to my hair to avoid the stripping feeling and also once I use a DC, it returns to normal silky soft hair.

Hey Aggie!
I've never done a single step the entire 2 1/2 years of using henna and indigo. Again, I realized I was being too stingy with my indigo (I don't have a lot of hair and didn't think I needed so much, but I do!)

The single step doesn't really do anything for my hair either. I have to return to doing the 2 step henna treatments as I do get much better results from them.
