Edges update...I LOVE Castor oil and Molasses!!!

[itismehmmkay]

I put castor oil in all my DCs and my spritz mix. I oil my whole scalp with CO twice a week and do my edges daily. I do a molasses treatment once a week- The molasses has just made my new growth on my hairline way stronger and added to it's thickness.

My hair was brownish in September, i had an ombre thing going on. IRL my hair is looking as close to jet black than it ever has, the only thing that changed in my reggie was the addition of molasses

I make my molasses mix by mixing 50% blackstrap molasses; 25% aussie 3 min and 25% castor oil. I warm up for no more than 20 secs and immediately distribute through my hair in sections. i then wrap with cling film and sit under the drier for 30-45 mins... I rinse with cold water and my hair is instantly super moisturised, strong and shiny I do this once a week and if it's windy or dry out, I'll co-wash with it mixed into my tresemme Naturals whenever needed

I've plan to add JBCO to my grease, but I need I need to get on this molasses. I may start by just adding molasses and castor oil to my DC...25% vs 75% conditioner. Just to see what's up.

Cause how does it feel OP? It's not sticky?

I found some molasses in my cupboard so I let it be known that that is now for my hair. I was met with erplexed faces but I'm sure they are used to it by now

On it's own it is sticky but mixed with stuff, it's cool

nice job!

i have been using castor oil but i may step it up now.

how do you apply it to your scalp, with an applicator?

Sounds like a great treatment .....

Are you applying the DC to wet/damp hair after cleansing?

I noticed you said you rinse with cool water so I am assuming it's not a pre-poo, right?

 

[bgsix]

I need to step up my jbco game seriously! Great job op!

@lesedi
Are you still doing this? Are doing this as a DC treatment? Or, a pre-poo?
