[alove15]

-Continue my version of the cg method(no wash and goes, just twist/braid outs)
-Consistently take my msm
-Up my water intake! Eat less processed and more whole.
-m&s daily, dc 1-2x a week
-Overcome cg method induced hand in hair syndrome
-Continue the summer no heat challenge w/o using any passes
-Hopefully reach bsl by the end of the month

Whimsy, what will you be using to dye your hair black?

For me, I am thinking:
-clay wash and deep condition weekly
-keep hair stretched: flexi rods and twists
-reach BSL
-buy a banana clip and start doing styles with it
-maybe dye black.

Thanks! I had been looking up indigo, but it seems so messy and complicated. I'm not on that advanced stuff yet.

I only use clay sporadically. This past weekend I finally finished the jar I've had since 2009. I was iffy about it during the cold months bc I had a hard time washing it out before my shower turns cold, but I realized several things after doing more research:
- was doing it wrong (or making it more difficult for myself) by making it a super thick consistency. My hair turned out great last weekend, and I think it has to do with the fact that I had it VERY watered down, much like that Terresentials mud wash.

- was letting it dry in my hair turns out that's just asking for trouble. I now wear a shower cap to keep it wet for the 20-30 mins I let it sit.

I love it, actually. My scalp gets gunky from my workouts, and I find that shampoo isn't cutting it to remove the sand-like layer that ends up on the scalperplexed
Bentonite clay does a FANTASTIC job at helping me remove everything, while keeping the hair soft. Think I'll make it my shampoo for the summer and play around with different variations of ingredients for it. HTH!

I'm in senegalese braids but--
1. M&S daily
2.massage daily
3. cowash 2-3x weekly
4. DC weekly

 

[MrsJaiDiva]

Contine using modified CG Method - I rinse out the conditioner, and gel it.
Continue taking vits regularly, and add back in the biotin
Add a clarifying cowash to reggie since I'm using cones again.
Add an Ayuvedic DC every 2 weeks
Either find a better gel, or do a better job putting it in
Keep on doing what I'm doing...cause it's working!

 

[faithVA]

My hair goals:
- trim my ends
- complete 6 weeks of cg method
