I Think I've Finally Nailed My Regimen!!!

[Nice & Wavy]

I am too excited now....I've finally nailed it!!!

Ayuveda is #1 in my book. I can't believe the turn around my hair has made, as far as moisture and overall health. My hair has been growing nicely before I began, but now....it has taken off on a new level.

Ayuveda to me is a KISS. I do use OCT/MT when I wear my hair curly, but I haven't this winter because I don't want to have my hair wet at all. I found that I had more problems with it curly in the winter than straight.(my ends suffer) So, I rollerset my hair and then flat iron every two weeks. The results are fantabulous!!!

On Saturday, I used for the first time Shikakiki to wash my hair. I didn't use just water to make the paste, I used Amla Gold and HairVeda Moisture 24/7 in the mix. Not only was the paste smooth, but smelled good too!

I put it on dry hair and let it sit for about 6 minutes. I then rinsed it out and used a little more conditioner to make sure the powder all rinsed out better. I then used my shampoo bar (I absolutely love this) lathered, then rinsed. My hair was nice to the touch...not stripped at all.

I then used the HairVeda Strinilliah DC Mask (sp) for the first time. I applied it to my hair section at a time, from root to ends. It went on smooth and it smelled really nice.

I then did a SamanthaJones special steamer....chile, that was the best! Thanks, girl...you are sooooooooo smart

I sat under the dryer for about 1 1/2 hours and then rinsed. My hair was tangle free and moist, moist, moist. I then used a little Moisture 24/7 and massaged it throughout my hair for about 2 minutes and rinsed. My hair was happy, happy!

I used a little Amla Gold, and HairVeda Whipped Ends to my hair, massaged it in and proceeded to rollerset. After my hair dried I removed the rollers, applied Chi Silk Infusion (I'm not giving this up...) and flat ironed with my beloved Maxiglide (the best).

My hair is swingin' and dancin' today. I've got about 15 compliments so far about how my hair has grown immensely and how thick it is. They are asking for the secrets, ya'll.....

I'm so happy that I have finally found the best products for my hair. No more store brand for me...well, except Aveda (I can't get enough of it) or AO HSR and GPB (awesome products).

I toss my hat to those who came up with these products and ideas....the best eva!!

Thanks for the info. Is there any other info online? If yes, could you post a link? Pretty please.

I've gotten all my important info from this thread: http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=183305&highlight=vatika

There are others as well...but this is the thread that put me on the right track

Also, I'm now using HaiVeda: www.hairveda.com by our very own Billy Jay!

ETA: I purchase the Vatika Oil, Amla Gold and Shikakki (sp) from an Indian supermarket near my home. I can't find some others I need (Bhrami and Brhinginani (sp)) so I have to order it online.

That's awesome that you've found what works for you! And your hair is lovely!

I have one question though...I thought the whipped cream said not to use it when doing a heat style? Did you not notice any ill effects?

Thanks, so is your hair...lovely!

It does say that and I did not have any ill effect at all. I'm sure that if you put it on section, by section and flat iron, the results may not be great, but...I just used a little and massaged it throughout my hair and ends and my hair is fabulous!

I felt the same way when I discovered Ayurveda:heart2: and HairVeda .

You are welcome!

I get my shampoo bar from here: www.mehandi.com They are pretty expensive, but FOR ME it's worth every dollar ($12.00)

There are other places to get them from, but I'm not sure where. Hopefully others will chime in as to where they get theirs from.

HTH

I still like my OCT, but I'm slowing moving over to natural products, and Ayurveda has proven to be the best for my hair.

Your hair is gorgeous, as usual. I am thrilled that you finally found something that works!!

 

[Serenity_Peace]

Think I will go ahead and purchase the Methi treatment from Hairveda. It's finally available and I need a little protein to get me through this stretch.

girl, and your hair is showing it!

it looks SOOO good!

Thanks, SP. I will never give up my OCT/MT. That stuff has kept the hair on my head...it really has given me great hair health and strength.

Think I will go ahead and purchase the Methi treatment from Hairveda. It's finally available and I need a little protein to get me through this stretch.

Let us know how you like it. I love MT for protein for my natural strands when needed.

Congrats girlie. I can't wait to start on D's hair. Q

 

[guyanesesista]

Good for you. Your hair is fab. I've been avoiding the ayureda train for the longest and now you make me wanna jump on it even more. I'e been trying to use up my products but they're just not working for me. I wanna try ayerveda so bad but I'm too broke to buy more products too.

Thanks, sis. I know you will see a difference in her hair soon

Thank you so much. I avoided it for the longest and I could kick myself for not starting this sooner.

Ayurveda is the cheapest you can get...much better than conventional products. You will not regret it
