well I christened my new steamer last night .... and I cant believe I went this long without one !!!!!!
I clarified, did a aphogee 2 min light protein, then DCd with HV sitrinillah under the steamer for 30 mins. Sitrinillah normally works well for me but with the steamer it was just fabulous. !!!
I also gave myself a facial for the last 10 mins of my steam

bajandoc86 my girl di ting ah seh one !!!!!!
yep and Ive made a nice lil nook in the living room for it, set up so I can watch TV or be on my lappy while I use it.
my kitty isnt too pleased with the lil gurgling noise it makes sometimes, which provided some comical moments .... but he'll get used to it soon.
I wasnt able to make it to MegaMart but I got some deionized water (which is like distilled water) at the gas station. Im looking for a gallon sized bottle though, should be more economical.

Steamed today with Zuresh Conditioner. I think I did a better job steaming. Didn't put in too much water and didn't have the hood up too high. Next time still need to lower it a bit. I put the conditioner in and twisted and pinned my twists to the top of my head.
Going to use the Zuresh again next week. Think I am going to have to give it a couple of tries to really see how I like it. I want to compare steaming with the Zuresh with doing an oil rinse and then steaming.

Didn't get my AOWC but decided to purchase a sample of Komaza Oilve oil mask. I mud washed steamed with AOGPB and am now steaming with Komaza olive oil mask. I don't like the texture to much its like a butter. I love creamy conditioners. Lets see how it goes....

I will steam again this weekend with my DC mix of AOHR, Shea Butter, EVCO, Aloe Vera, & Honey.....

I'd like to join! I'm actually due for a steam today.1. How often you will steam - Once a week (or week and a half)
2. What steamer you are using - Huetiful
3. What products you steam with - AO WC, might try some other oil based conditioner also.
4. When will you start - Starting today!
There may be a few exceptions, for example if I put back in my chunky yarn twists then I will miss a week or so of steaming.
My steaming regimen consists of detangling with Aussie Moist and a wide tooth comb. Then I shampoo with Dr. Bronner's Castile Soap diluted with water (1:3). After that, I don't condition. I get out of the shower, put the AO WC on each section and sit under the steamer for one regular session facing forward and half a session facing backwards. (The hood doesn't get the nape area well.)
I'm excited!!
AO WC = Aubrey Organics White Camellia Conditioner

SimJam If you can't get distilled water, you can boil the water and use that in place of the distilled water.

TopShelf I rebraid every 4 weeks. I shampoo, tea rinse and DC with my braids in. I just dilute the shampoo and dc in water and use a spray bottle. I don't want too much build up at the base of the braids, hence why I use shampoo instead of cowash. When I have single braids with extensions I only rebraid the edges at the 4 week mark.
