I found the new topic,yayyyyyyyyyyy , Hey Aggie, ladies I have been so busy the past couple weeks, but I still been DC, just checking in with you ladies, my next DC I will use Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special Conditioner.
I haven't tried it yet, but I believe Nexxus Emergencee is similar and so is Remedee I think.I will just finish up the small bottle that I have and not finish buy this stuff anymore. So what is equal to the 2 step minus the stickiness?
I relaxed my hair with silk elements regular lye then used aphogee 2 min before neutralizing. Then I DC'd with a mix of GVP conditioning balm, shea butter cholesterol, coconut oil and olive oil. Here are my results...

Well I had my hair done today and the stylist used Alter Ego Garlic treatment for 20 minutes under the dryer. It was just OK. I really like taking care of my own hair now.
When I saw the other thread was closed I freaked out. I'm so glad this one is a continuation. Aggie, thanks so much for starting a new thread.
So anyway I bought an aloe vera leaf today at the bodega. I brought it home and chopped it up. Why does it stink like armpit? LOL I have a bottle of aloe vera juice and gel, but I wanted to do it old school and just buy the real plant. I mixed it up with my La Plancha conditioner, grapeseed oil, sheabutter, Burt's Bees deep conditioner, and I mixed it up in the blender because I didn't like the booger consistency. It came out whipped and it felt really good in my hair. I left it on my hair for one hour and I'm under the dryer right now trying to get my rollerset hair done. I'm going to take out the rollers and leave it in a ponytail. I really liked how my rollerset came out last week when I didn't use the flatiron. I'll snap a picture tomorrow if its worthy of posting.
I'm so ready to DC my hair but I just relaxed on Saturday. Is it too soon?

, This is too funny BM and you're quite welcomed. By the way, that baby in your siggy is just too cute. What exactly was on her mind anyway?
Applied MT to dry hair with my ayurvedic oil, left for 5 hours while I slept after a night at work, rinsed out and co-washed. I need a moisture DC next time....
ETA: So good to see you around Aggie, hope you're having a fab time away!
I have small individual braids (not micros but darn-well near; I hate taking them down- uggh!). Has anyone tried DC with braids in? Did you notice a difference from doing the DC?
I deep conditioned with MoroccanOil Intense Hydrating Mask. I had it in for about 6 hours. It left my hair soft, smooth and managable. This is going to be a staple deep treatment for me.
While I need more deep conditioners like a need a hole in my head, I was reading about this one just yesterday. I think I may have to give it a try. This challenge needs to last a long time, so I can use all of the deep conditioners and hair masks I've purchased.
The good thing is, I'm having a great time deep conditioning my hair and alternate between steam and under the dryer. Tonight I had work to do, so I'm using the Alterna Seasilk with a plastic cap and a hat to generate heat.
