GROW YOUR HAIR LONG WITH DEEP CONDITIONING CHALLENGE 2008 - PART 2

Cuzin Aggie has inspired me to step up the conditioning to 2x a week for the summer - I just put it as a recurring item on my Outlook to remind myself to do it...

*sigh*

*looking at Aggie's hair*

*double sigh*

*just slapped myself to snap out of it*

Don't make me put you across my knee:grin:. Go in your room and do as are told young lady......and no more lip from you:lachen:.
 
I relaxed over the weekend and gave myself a protein treatment as well as a dc with Redken heavy cream. My hair seems to be taking to dcing 2x per week very well. My hair looks and feels great.
 
Okay tonight I henna/indigo-ed my hair for 2 and a half hours with some left-over henna I had in the fridge and mixed with some of my left-over ayurveda co-wash - recipe found in my fotki. I co-washed with VO5 conditioner and now I am dc-ing overnight with mizani moisturefuse conditioner. My hair is still super soft:lick:. I'll wash out the DC tomorrow.
 
I think I should join this one since I do it anyway.

Tonight I CW'd with Aggie's ayurvedic recipe (minus the hisbiscus powder) and now I am sitting under the dryer DC'ing for 45 min with Queen Helene Cholesterol mixed with 2 tsp of honey and 1 tsp of coconut milk. So far, my hair seem pretty strong. I'll have a better idea of how it's doing once it's dry.
 
So.

:ohwell:










*I'm sorry cuz, I'm in a bitter hair mood*

I'm playin!

:lol:

That's nice baby girl...get ya condish on tonight..
while you review at school assignments :look:


:rolleyes::lachen: Man, My hair drank that ish up! I might do it again on Friday.
Man, I haven't looked at any of my school work. I just go to class, think about my hair, answer a question everynow and then to look "engaged" and go back to hair thoughts :lol:
 
Dc'ed on Monday with my aloe concoction. My hair feels very strong. I used a CON product called KISII to do my roller set my hair is so moisturized. I used to used it but I stopped because of the protein. When I checked the type of protein it turned out to be wheat protein. Which is good right? Correct me if I err. Next DC will be on friday.

Gymfreak--- I hear ya on those hair thoughts.:lachen:
 
on my second DC of the week!

mannn my mom and i went through the closet shelf where we keep our hair products and i knew we were PJs but DANG. after we threw away all the petrolatum-based stuff and the relaxer maintenance potions we STILL had all this stuff. it warrants an album in my fotki. back on topic though, i found all these little hot oil treatment vials...and one of the ingredients is wheat protein! now i don't know how well it will work being that it's made by suave and all but i am testing it out right now along with my cholesterol under my hood dryer until the clock hits 2.

so instead of keeping the cholesterol/hot oil in for an hour i left it in about 2.5 hours with heat for maybe the first 45 mins...omg i don't know what happened but i found SO many short relaxed ends in my denman (and on my fingers) when i detangled. the other day when i DC'd i watched my pile of hair like a hawk and it was mostly shed hairs, so i hope this can be easily corrected.
 
Checking in..
Saturday, I DC'd overnight with NTM Deep Conditioner mixed with warm honey, castor oil, and sweet almond oil.

Last night I DC'd with ORS Hair Mayo mixed with egg, safflower oil, and a ORS Peplenishing pak for an hour. Followed with NTM Deep Conditioner (with honey, castor oil, safflower oil) with NTM Mask on my ends for 30 minutes. My hair is still slightly damp, but it feels stronger but still soft. Will probably just do a moisturizing deep conditioner on my next DC.
 
I'm going to DC tonight while I'm working out, and rinse it out once I take my shower.

I don't think I'm going to DC this weekend though, cuz I'm going to be out of town. Though, I could be real special, and DC on the 8 hour trip back home :lachen: I dont' know - I'd hate to be stuck in the car with a drippy DC, and no shower to be found - that might be a bad idea. :lol: I'll most likely DC when I get home on Sunday, or on Monday, since I'll have the day off....
 
Gonna wash conditioner wash with suave coconut(rinse off 100%), acv rinse, then deep condition with Pantene Relaxed & Natural mixed with castor oil, coconut oil, and honey for like 3 hours.

wooooOO!!! :yep:

I hope the Pantene does me good...sometimes it results in greasy hair but sometimes my hair is nice & soft!

ETA: Ijust did the cowash..i might not be able to do this deep conditioning thing multiple times a week....

I want to join, if it's not too late... but can I if I am going to be getting braids? Also is ORS hair mayo a DC?


Hi mshottienelson, it's not too late to join and yes you can with braids. ORS mayo can also be used as a DC but because it's considered a mild protein conditioner, I would recommend that you incorporate a more water-based deep conditioner as a DC. See earlier in this thread for a few suggestions. BTWE, welcome to the challenge.

Yes you are right.

I presume you are using some garlic oil pre-poo, garlic poo, conditioner or treatment as a form of remedy, am I right?
 
I DC last night with coconut oil, nature's gate aloe vera moisturzing conditioner and jason's biotin conditioner:lick:
 
I'm DC'ng now with Phyto Organics, I"ll probably leave in all night, rinse and airdry in the morning.
