Do you find that your hair gets dry when you use it in winter?

Yes. Which is why I tend to stay away. However I’ve been wig wearing this fall so my hair isn’t out in the air. Every time I take the wigcap off it’s lush. I think my head heat and the wig are working to keep the moisture contained.Do you find that your hair gets dry when you use it in winter?

I would agree! Whenever I go out or to work, I put on a scarf and then my baker boy hat over that. I wear it from door to door. My hair stays moist, warm and protected. Go juice!
It keeps my hair sleek and slick looking. Yes, I feel it helps me retain length. My hair is crunchy, dry and hard in its natural state. With curl activator, my hair is soft and moist. I used to use Stay Sof Fro. It is very thin and light. I changed over toe Scurl when I saw this girl at work who had fuzzy, dry looking hair like I have, then the next day, sleek looking wet hair. I asked her what she used, and the rest is history.
How long have you been using it?
Yes yes and yes to all of this ^^^ @scarcity21Ok I can relate. This is how I use it. I apply after I wash my hair, put 5-7 flat twists in, let air-dry. Once dry, I untwist and apply again on dry hair and retwist. Once dry the 2nd time, my hair feels so soft and moisturized and this feeling can last 2weeks!
^ This is my favorite jherri juice by far @bolded. I just can't find it on the ground here in the Bahamas so I get the CFCG or Luster's SCurl.Lustrasilks curl max moisturizer is my go to jheri juice. I later it under my gel for my wash n goes and use it to revive dry curls around day 3 or 4.
I use Blue Magic Grease to seal in the juice and detangle, then plait my hair up until the next moisturizing session a week or two later. I gatta say, it is the perfect pre-poo tooHow are you ladies using the S-Curl to detangle? @IDareT'sHair @I Am So Blessed
How do you guys keep your hair from frizzing? I've been making my own spray and as soon as I spray it on my jumbo twists they frizz like crazy. My hair was so soft, though (1 glycerine: 2 water). With 1 glycerine: 3 water my hair frizzes on contact.
I was sealing with castor oil on my ends which I think contributed to locking in ther moisture but I really can't stand the greasy feeling on my hands when I need to touch my hair.
Any suggestions?
Have you tried shea butter? I don't use s-curl, but I find it works great for holding when applying to damp hair over a moisturizer.
I'm not a fan of shea (it left my hair feeling hard). I joined the shea butter group for all of a week in hopes to love it, but didn't. I haven't tried it with the glycerine, but I'm going to give it a go. Thanks for the suggestion!
If you start one @Kells, I'm in...Tag me if you do. My hair loves the Jherri juiceSooooooo, I just bought a 32-oz bottle of S-Curl, because I’d read this thread earlier today.
I used to use the juice sporadically over the years.
Anytime I used it, my hair was very moisturized, I just hadn’t been consistent enough with it.
A 2K-XIX (‘19) Juice Challenge shoooole’ would be nice, OP...
Can you spray it in your hands then apply it to your hair? My hair is frizz central, so sometimes I apply it that way. Then if you do use it, you are definitely gonna have to pin it down at least until it “dries”I've been playing around with making my own glycerine spray. The lower content (1 glycerine : 3 water) doesn't do much for my fair. A bit higher than that and my hair feels wonderful!!! The drawbacks are: 1. The glycerine makes my twists frizzy if I spray it in my twists, 2. The shrinkage it causes is fierce! I detangled my hair today but because it was partially loose, it shrunk back up and tangled up in itself. I've got to detangle again this weekend.
How does everyone use their spray and how often?

*first reaction* Heck no!Do you find that your hair gets dry when you use it in winter?
*first reaction* Heck no!
My hair is extra moisturized all year round no matter the weather. Right now my hair is still moist from five days ago.
You're talking about curl activator right? If yes, then yeah what I said above.
Haha ok, glycerin has never disappointed even when it was 5 degrees outside.Girl, you're funny. Yes to any glycerine-based spray.
