Add me to the challenge Aggie I just recently got sprung on AO Honeysuckle Rose. I saw my curlies for the first time in a long time
Will do honey and welcome to the challenge. Good luck and don't forget to incorporate some type of protein conditioner in your regimen when needed, okay?
I'd love to join this challenge. I plan to deep con 3x a week (Sun, Wed, Fri) with hairveda products. So far my hair is LOVING it.
count me in!!!! I recently cut my hair really short. To start over
I'm DC'ing with Praital Silk Worm on dry hair without heat for a few hours. I've been DC'ing at least twice a week and my hair is loving it. I haven't been using heat but I've been Dc'ing for several hours. I hope I'm getting the same benefit.
im deep conditioning right now on dry hair with carols daughter black vanilla smoothie for a couple of hours after this i will shampoo with tui shampoo nd then deep condition with heat for 30 minutes with ORS replenishing pak.
lennet93, I would recommend alternating some of your DCs with heat for added benefit. They don't necessarily have be very long, about 30 minutes would be perfect with a little heat.
this is the first time i've used it as it is a new addition to the carols daughter collection. im going to wash it out now and i will tell you how it turns out. what i can say is that over a year ago before i found this site i used he smoothies before they were new and improved and i didnt like it. it was like shea butter so it was really hard to spread and back then i didnt have a hooded drier so that could have been it too.chebaby, how is the bolded working for your hair and are you natural or relaxed?
Thank you for having me on this site and in this challenge im excited. I will check this out. I paid 22.00 for the one I have here, but it seems like really good stuff.
Welcome to LHCF, Wanny! Was the $22 for an AO product? If so, waaaay too much get on over to vitacost quick!!!!
Hi everyone. I dc'd twice this week. Once, I wrapped and let air dry and the second one I did on ednesday, I let roller set air dry. I wish I knew where my charger was for my camera I would show some pics. Anyways. I have the metalic rollers and Had them in from when I went to bed on Wednesday night/morning until I felt like taking them out on Friday since I was going to go out. Well I did not go out until today for church, so I had my head wrapped in a silk scarf and combed it a little this morning. ell when my mom came home from work, she asked if I had done a perm the other day, but I said, "No mommy, I just washed it and dc'." She really likes the results. Well my next dc is on Tuesday to prep for a job interview on Thursday. I like this right here.
I also have a question for anyone who can answer this. I am going for a perm/relaxer on Saturday with a dc, rinse, and trim (already deducted an inch from my starting point in pic b/c my hair dresser was on vacation). How long do you wait after a relaxer to do you next dc?
I am doing a "shortcut" prepoo/DC right now.
Using evoo, coconut oil, and ORS mayo
Next, a clarifying cowash (baking soda), leave-in, and Vaseline to seal
Correct me if I'm wrong, but are clarifying your hair after you deep condition it? If you are, this backward and all you're doing is removing the wonderful moisturizing benefits and effects of your DC treatment by clarifying it afterwards. I would clarify before the DC, okay?
