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

I pre-poo with egg and evoo, used kc, and dc with humecto. My hair loved this. It is defintely a keeper for me. It's so soft and moisturized.

I just need to find another dc because kc is too exspensive to be using it more then once a week.
 
I just wanted to stop by this thread after not posting for many months, Im so proud that there is FINALLY a challenge using methods that focus on pure hard work and consistency (the way I had to do it), as opposed to magic potions/vitamins, etc. My hat is off to all of you ladies and I wish you all long, beautiful flowing hair.

After two weeks of braids, I finally did some Dcing. I am in the dryer as I type. I think my hair is enjoying the moisture I am giving it now.

Whoa! You are doing it Mandy! Go ahead!:yep:

I DC'd with Miss Keys 10 en 1. With a heating cap for 30 min, then let it sit for a couple of hours. I used the Denman brush to detangle in the shower and now its like butter. I love that Denman but the amount of hair that comes out sure does scare me :ohwell:

i am currently prepooing with this old bottle of pantene R&N intensive moisturizing conditioner...i know i will shampoo after this but i am still contemplating whether i want to break out the hood dryer for a DC with kenra mc & heat. it would be a welcome treat since i had these cornrows in for about 2 weeks but its soooo hot!

still going back and forth between rollersetting, banding then flatironing, or just doing good old two strand twists. UGH i wish i were still stuck in a style rut.

update: i didnt DC with the kenra cause i ended up spending an hour and a half under the dryer with my magnetic rollers in. yay, my first rollerset!

...you guys probably wont see me for a week now, cause i am ENJOYING my hair...lol

Too sweet:grin: Thank you, thank you. The compliments mean a lot to me.
 
Washed tonight with Alma and Shikakai tea, been DCing for the past hour with my Sedal Ceramidas treatment concoction mixed with Joico moisture condish, a pinch of salt and Vatika oil without heat. My plan is to rinse this out use a little Posity control, roller set and airdry.
 
I deep conditioned today with Biolage Fortifying Conditioner mixed with some SAA, Biolage conditioning balm and fortetherapie cera repair treatment. The mixture is still in my hair and I'm about to wash it out right now. I'll see how it turned out.

ETA: Okay my hair turned out just okay but I think it's because I am 9 weeks post relaxer and it's still dry, and my new gorwth is pretty thick right now so I think I will relax it Monday of next week when I am at 10 weeks post. My hair still feels pretty dry though so I'll concentrate on keeping it moisturized daily, slide in about 2 additional deep conditioning treatments and clarify it 3 days before the actual relaxer.

I will be self-relaxing with Design Essentials regular lye because it doesn't give me bone-straight results which I'm trying to avoid in any case. This will be my 3rd self-relaxer since I started this hair growing journey and I'm still excited about doing it.

Thank you so much babygurl for stopping by. Your hair really does look awesome and do I see that your hard work has certainly paid off:yep:.
 
Okay I DC/Pre Poo with AO Blue Green Algae Hair Mask - washed with Nexxus Therappe shampoo then used AO GPB (left on for about 3 minutes) - This is 1st time I did this combination and my hair is has a lot of body/volume.

I have relaxed 3b or 3c hair that is very fine. I rollerset my hair with Lottabody. I dilute it a light sky blue and sometimes I just set my hair with plain water and use smaller rollers

When I get this picture thingee down - I will post a pic :drunk:

Okay, I need to update my deep conditioning for the weekend...cause I wound up doing all weekend...

*rewind*

Friday, overnight conditioned with Elucence MB with Cocosta, Vatika, Coconut and Palm Oils.

Rinsed out and airdried.

Saturday, overnight conditioned with Banana Brulee, Pantene R&N Mask and Aveda Brilliant, topped off with cocosta and monoi oil mix on ends.

Sunday, rinsed out. Did two minutes with AVEDA Damage Remedy. Then had to have another session with just Pantene R&N Mask, NTM DDC and HE Dangerously Straight.

8 weeks post hair feels so much better after Sunday's final session. Leaving alone until Friday entering the 9 week mark...
 
i've been really slacking on my deep conditioning lately

i had lost a lot of moisture and had problems retaining it.
dry, brittle hair...blaaaaaah

i did a dc with kenra mc (mixed with castor oil and Nature's Baby Vanilla-Tangerine Conditioner & Detangler - which i diluted with water before)

and then i rinsed and added a little more of the conditioner mix in sections and i'm sort of "baggying" it in right now...i'll leave this in.

my hair felt really good after rinsing...and hopefully after it's dry it'll still feel good.

i've gotten really lazy about this stuff

i'm going to put some twists in my hair
 
Sorry i have not been posting....but i have been DCing but only 1x a week....however im back to 2x a week starting tonight....just DCed w/ pantene R/N mask for 1 hour w/ plastic cap.

Okay sqzbly1969. Do you have a fotki that we can view instead?
 
Forgot to check in - I deep conditioned on Friday with Creme of Nature conditioner. I didnt like it as much as the ORS olive oil paks. My hair felt dry afte ward. Had to do a conditioning wash yesterday.
I'm seven weeks post relaxer and about to start braiding up. Usually I get box braids with human hair. But I am going to try some cornrows for about a month - with synthetic hair. I'm concerned that the dc effect will be minimal if my hair is protected with the synthetic hair which isnt as forgiving or absorbant as human hair.
anybody with synthetic hair extensions that dc?
 
I deep conditioned my hair last night with H20 Moisture conditioner and my hair was a bit dry and it came out nice followed up with ORS oilive oil leave in and air dry.
 
Dc'd overnight on dry hair with Pantene RN mask, covered w/ oil this morning added Loreal vive color treated mask to ends(they look a little parched). Will rinse soon. Im going to attempt to do my own kinky twist today:ohwell: wish me luck

Hmmm, I don't think this is a good idea if the extension is a weave. If it is braids then the answer is yes you can DC with them. Just use diluted poo and conditioner to saturate the hair okay? Sorry to hear about the CON conditioner. My hair loves that conditioner.
