Iman conditioner... My PJ-itis is acting up again.

Sometimes I'll make a paste out of 1-2 TBS of lotus powder and hot water. I'll mix it with a creamy protein conditioner. It works like neutral Hennalucent on my hair (slightly less kink and bulk for a few weeks). I like the idea that lotus powder is all natural. It's easier to rinse out, too.

Auntybe, I've used in the past, but it made my hair smell to loud like lotus flowers and I couldn't stand that. As far as how it made my hair feel - I have no clue. It didn't feel any different to me.

Thanks ladies!

Sassy:

If you get the Iman Conditioner. The directions recommend you comb it through the hair. I do it from roots to ends. gives me nice waves and curls.

Nita:

I think I will try it this weekend to brace myself for the smell.

It does smell very loud. Kind of like old lady perfume. I liked it, though!

It didn't seem to linger in my hair, thoguh... The people at Mailboxes, Etc. were all wondering what was in the highly fragranced box! They had to put it the back room because it was aggravating one the employees allergies.

(I got the lotus powder that Henna Joy sells on her site everydayhenna.com.)
