@Ltown - I'll do what I usually do...I'll mix some of it but first I'll try it on its own, see how it does solo.

Brownie, I still have walnut left and a little of all the oils common mistake for a PJ don't know what she got.

Hmph, I make that 'common mistake' all the time, too! All this stuff I got in here...I've been dying to try that Walnut oil, though.

yes, that sesame seed oil is the business!!!

i'm so glad i read about it on here, because i'd never really considered it before....just like with the mustard seed oil.

and i can get them both locally and inexpensively at the indian stores! what a blessing!

well, last night's oil rinses, cw'es, and oil washes got my indigo out very very well.

i bagged overnight and had damp hair this morning and unlike most mornings when it would dry to be crispy, it dried soft and supple.

AMAZING given the fact that i did a henna and an indigo! i've heard so many complain of the dryness, i expected it to be crispy, like usual, so i'm very relieved to find how well these oils work.

the more i implement them into my entire haircare system, the better my hair feels!

hhj ladies and thanks again for all the helpful advice!

grow Yes,I love Sesame seed oil on the roots & length..But,mostly applied to my roots (excellent at providing scalp health) also,has great detangleing abilities...(HELPS WITH SHEDDING)

*The + side I can find it locally too


Happy Hair Growing!

Lita, thanks!

it's good for shedding, too?!

there's yet another tidbit i didn't get the first time! (i only got the part about it helping detangle and given the chunkiness of henna/indigo, knew i needed detangling assistance)

so now i have yet another good reason to keep it in the rotation!

why didn't i get that before....hmmm....it's like my brain can only abosrb a certain amount of new information at a time.

thank goodness we repeat things ladies because all this new information takes a while to sink in!

oh, and a few pages back, i gotta also congratulate and thank op for putting up pics of natural hair pre oil rinsing and after 1 month of oil rinsing!!!

those pics speak thousands of words! .....and yes, her curl definition, especially on the ends, became much more pronounced!

beautiful results!!!!

(has me wondering....now exactly how many oil rinses was she doing a week?)

hhj ladies!

Grow that was a big topic in ceramides thread. Oil is not a protein but nuts are protein in their original shape so some make mistaken that for oils being protein.

Hey yall, havent checked in for a while, and I wanted to update since I tweaked my regimen a bit and added new products. This evening I did a clarifying ACV/water rinse, and this was my first time doing that EVER. My hair loved it! Hair felt so clean and my curls were more defined, without applying shampoo! (Usually I apply diluted shampoo to my scalp and hair, but this time only applied to scalp to cleanse away all the oil/sulfur).

Followed up the ACV rinse with Roux Porosity Control (gr8 results), Nexxus Phyto Organics Babassu Mud Hair Revitalizing Trtmnt (protein), Shea Moisture Deep Trtmnt Mask (moisture), then left in a cheapie--White Rain Cuke/Melon Cond. This was my first time leaving in a conditioner and not rinsing it out...and I like the results! (I got the cue to try this from CelinaStarr, who is my hair inspiration)! I was going to do an oil rinse after the left in cheapie cond, but I like to add my oils after my leave-in creams so the creams can penetrate first, and the oils are to seal them in.

I applied my MTG oil mix to my scalp, as well as Megatek, and massaged in. Then, applied hemp seed, Shikakai, Amla, and Hot 6 oils to hair after leave-in creams were in (yep, all of em, cuz my hair loves oil). Combed thru (very little hair shed/lost in detangling), gelled back into wet bun, and thas it. This will be my regimen weekly for everything except the Roux. I will do Roux every other week to once a month, and alternate doing oil rinses every other week.

So far I've been using grape seed, hemp seed, Hot 6 Oil, and ayurvedic oils...but I'm waiting on an order of sweet almond, avocado, jojoba, and safflower oils. The PJ is surely creeping back up after being suppressed forcefully for the past 4 years! I was doing good...[sigh]

I co washed with Oyin honey hemp condish. My hair felt good,so I didn't use a moisturizer until later that night. I'm taking these durn three quarters head full of braids down too.

JerriBlank

I don't.erplexed (at bolded) But it's prolly still on the Mountain Rose Herbs website. I think Olive Oil was the base in it tho'. I loved it.

Glad to know you can pick it up at Whole Foods. Once I determine what I'm keeping (as far as Oils) I may pick this one up again.

I can tell when I love something, I use it up fast. Like my Grape Seed, Avacado and Hemp Seed oils (which I've never replaced)

I've been using castor oil to heal the scalp and it's working fast but it's sticky to the hair. I infuse some nettle/horsetail in coconut,evoo and avacodo oil on monday will start using that soon.

Brownie518, Olivado Omega Plus.The ingredients are only cold pressed olive,avocado,and flaxseed oils though. You can probably make that. . I know I wouldn't get the measurements right,so I just buy it.
