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

Haven't been checking in lately :( sorry!!
I dc'ed yesterday after relaxing with Lustrasilk Shea+Shea butter+Hempseed Butter+Camellia Seed+Castor+Coconut..it was good :D
lol i've been dc'ing with only Lustrasilk for like the past month..
 
Its getting cold where I am. Even with DC 2x/week and wearing a half wig my hair is not as moisturized as it used to be:ohwell:

Maybe THAT's what's going on with my hair!! It has been just - drier than usual, and I was thinking it was because I was slacking a bit on the DC's (but I only skipped TWO!), but the change in weather/loosing the humidity in the air could be it, too. Hrrrrrrrrrm.

You have any plans on how you are going to deal with it, cutiebe?
 
IM IN JUST CO WASHED WITH VO5 GREEN TEA CLARIFYING COND. FOLLOWED BY KENRA MOISTURE COND. MIXED WITH COCONUT OIL AND HONEYAIR DRIED WITH GIOVANNI TWIST OUT W/ALOE WATER SEALED WITH CASTOR
 
ok i am going to re join this challenge. i mean i was still deep conditioning every week but i have been flat ironing my hair once a week for the last month and have since (today lol) decided to go back to co washing. so basically i will co wash everyday like i used to. i will deep condition overnight once a week and deep condition with heat once a week. sometimes i will use oils instead of conditioners. i will do this until november 1 (hope i make it). and then its back to deep conditioning once a week and flat ironing.
 
DC-ing tonight with Pantene R/N hair mask mixed with Lustrasilk shea butter cholesterol. About to wash it out right now and head for bed shortly afterwards.
 
who is still using dominican deep conditioners?

I am using the Alter Ego Garlic treatment and Salerm 21 Wheat germ mask. I like the AE galric treatment better. The Salerm mask does not smell too good to me and it isn't thick either. I will not be re-purchasing it. I have had the Miss Key 10 in 1 and I gave it to my sister because my hair didn't like it. It gave my hair absolutely no slip:nono:.
 
I'm giving my hair the goodgood today - clarifying and cleaning with a baking soda/ayurvedic mix, then I'm going to DC with steam. :lick: I haven't decided what all I'm going to put in the DC - hibiscus, honey, Elasta QP, TJ's Replenish, some honeyquat, a touch of SAA........ I kinda want to put an oil in it for some reason - anyone ever DC with castor oil?

Dang, I should have gotten some ghee when I was at the suk. :lol:
 
Dc-ed again and used my beloved Mizani Moisturefuse. I haven't used this conditioner in a long time and I can't believe how good it felt on my hair:lick:, I mean totally yummy it was. Of course, I did clarify/chelate my hair first with some Mizani Phormula-7 shampoo.

DC with castor oil? Hmmm, no I can't say that I have JK.In fact, that thought never even crossed my mind. Perhaps you should consider doing a hot oil treatment with it though. Heck I might even do that myself, it actually sounds like a good idea:yep:.
 
I have been a bit too busy and too lazy this week, but I finally DCed today. I used Keracare Humecto, under the dryer for about 1hr.
 
I dc'd last night with SitriNillah. Lovely.


I am tempted to try some of hairveda products. Can someone tell me what is their best deep conditioner please? I think it will be a toss up between hairveda and Godflower's products although I may try a little of each as long as they are sulfate-free and more on the natural care side.

Yep.... it makes your hair feel really soft and look really shiny.
 
DCed today with Phytospecific Nutrition Mask for 1 hour with a shower cap as I had breakfast and started my day. I received 2 free sample packs and this is my first time using it. Mixed the pack with Aura conditioner as a base. My hair feels soft but strong.
 
Deep conditioned on Friday with a mix of BBD stretch and Nadia Fortifying mask for 1hr. My hair felt good but I needed to follow up with my SE Olive Moisturizing mask for detangling. My hair came out really nice.
 
DC'd with Silk Elements Olive Moisturizing Treatment. So far, I am unimpressed. I'll see after my braids dry but it's nothing like the original that I love.
 
got a relaxer at the hairdresser... she used jane carter conditioner. it came out really shiny and nice. oh my gosh and she used this serum on it from jane carter. i don't remember the exact name but it made my hair super shiny. love it.
 
Pre-pooed with Aphogee 2 minute keratin treatment on my hair for a little added strength and some BT on my scalp for stimulaltion, followed by conditioning without heat with some WEN tea tree cleansing conditioner which is still on my hair right now for about 30 minutes I think. This is really tingling my scalp and I actually like the feeling.

BY the way ladies, it's my birthday today

Happy Birthday Aggie. Hope you have a wonderful day and many many many more to come!!
 
I've been forgeting to keep updating in here. Anyways... Getting ready to slap on some QH Cholesterol on my dry hair for about an hour. Will not be shampooing til next week. I had a lil problem with too much protein so I've switched to low protein high moisture products. It's made a HUGE difference!!! I always thought I was just a shedder, but low and behold my shedding has almost stopped. I DC with NTM Daily Deep Cond. and with QH Cholesterol and my hair has really thanked me. Anyways...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AGGIE!!! :birthday2 :dance7:
