MISS:
cowashing then adding serum: this was horrible. i don't know where i read this, but i remembered that some people put a serum or oil over their conditioner after cowashing to avoid ssks. well i had serum so i tried it. DISGUSTING! i don't think the conditioner and serum got along AT ALL. it made the conditioner ball up into nasty little white beads. it kinda looked like flour and water being mixed. it was super gross. so i had to rinse it out. i will never do that again lol. maybe next time i'll just try oil. ♥

HIT: Lustrasilk Shea Butter Cholesterol Plus + Avocado oil
Last month I said it was mediocre.. I just needed to clarify last time. Its nice, its a keeper, and I'll repurchase. I will add glycine to it too (maybe).
EDIT: I have to add.... that Lustrasilk is actually really really good (after adding avocado oil). I'm so in love!
Miss: Victoria secret So sexy Volume, not worth $12 will not repurchase.

Hollywood Beauty Castor Oil & Olive Oil treatments.
Going back to my little portable bonnet hair dryer. Love that thing.
On the fence:
*Tea rinsing. I'm not sure what it's supposed to be doing. Did seem to make my hair a slightly darker color (good thing). Used regular black tea that I've been trying to use up.
*Staying away from red hair dye. I'm a recovering hair dye junkie, but the temptation is so strong!
Miss:
*My braid out technique. Haven't quite mastered it yet. Some of the hair is defined crinkles and some of it. . well, is not.
*Organic Root Stimulater Olive Oil foaming wrap mousse. I'm pretty sure it's drying my hair out.
erplexed
*People telling me they like my real hair more then they like my wigs. Now I feel all pressured to give up my protective style. Why won't they let my polyester hair be great?!?

IK. I thought about "Bunning" but of course it would be a Phony-Bun. So, in order to keep my hair totally un-manipulated, I am opting for the wig.
With the Bun, I had to keep everything slicked/tied down. I had to Clarify more (because I was using gels, serums etc.... to keep Edges in place etc......
If I can make it through the 'heat' I will attempt to keep Wiggin' It.
