May 9,10,11..What Are YOUR Weekend Hair Plans??

So how do u apply the coffee grounds? Are these "used" coffee grounds? Do they rinse out well? Is the purpose to cut shedding? I'm interested to try this.

I blended used grounds from my k-cup into my prepoo treatment. I always mix my prepoo in the magic bullet even before the addition of coffee grounds.

I applied the prepoo in 4 sections, starting with my scalp first and used the coffee granules to scrub my scalp and lightly exfoliate. Then I applied the mixture to my length and ends, steamed with hand held steamer and twisting each section.

Ummm, they rinse out okay. But that's only because I rinse my hair at least four times during the wash process, once after each step. If some one only wishes to rinse once or twice I wouldn't use coffee grounds.

My purpose of using grounds instead of coffee was:

1. To exfoliate my scalp.
2. Decrease shedding
3. Not to add an additional step to my process, rather combine it with my prepoo which sits in my hair longest.
4. Smooth my ends...Since coffee grounds are slightly acidic, they really helped to smooth my cuticle and I felt this smoothing effect throughout my entire wash process. I never keep up with doing ACV rinses and the coffee seemed to do better job.
5. Color deposit...again added to my prepoo so I could reap the benefits of having it stay in overnight and enhance the color of my hair by depositing rich chocolate tones.
6. I didn't want to use coffee, because I do not like to wet my hair during the prepoo process other than with the use of steam. Too much wetness makes my hair difficult to detangle. Therefore I like to stick to oils, with a little conditioner.

Take always for next time...

1. Only use one k-cup. I used two.
2. Grind the grounds up alone before adding other products

This was a GREAT BREAKDOWN.

THANK U!
 
I put my natural oasis sulfur mix on my scalp and am baggying as we speak. Will wash tonight or tomorrow. I will detangle, pre-poo, wash and do a komaza protein treatment, condition with my usual staples giovanni/aubreys.
 
Washing and DC today, there are no rollers at my mom's house so I'm not sure whether to air dry or flat iron and try to put in some pin curls.
 
Soooo I'm too busy/lazy/tired to do henna..I'm going to freeze my henna and use it whenever. I forgot about Mother's day and I need to be done by Sunday..
I finished taking down my twists last night with Donna marie detangling conditioner and shea butter
Applied vatika oil and pineappled then went to sleep
Washed twice with Donna Marie Shampoo
Deep Condition with Claudie's Renew for an hour
Deep Condition with Kizuri Cocoa for hours
Twist with Oyin Hair Dew, Shea butter, Darcy's Pumpkin
my hair was a bit tangled taking down my twists this week. Maybe I'll braid it before I twist
 
Thank you IDareT'sHair! This reached out to me because I don't have any children but as a teacher I've pretty much adopted one of my students this year by being there for his financial needs.

Anyway, my weekend hair plans?

Moisturize my marleys. I'm going to wash them with a stocking cap next weekend.

We need more teachers like you NaturallyATLPCH. Thank you for all you do!

Happy Mothers Day ladies!

Co-cleanse: HV Amala Cream
DC with steam: HV Sitri mixed with evoo and honey
Flexi rod set: used really big flexis. Not going for curl. Just giving my hair a boost of heat.
 
Yesterday I washed x2 with Macadamia natural oil poo, aphogee 2 mins for 2 mins. Then DC'd with Bee mine Beautiful DC for 2+hrs today I moisturized with as I am butter cream and braided my hair up hoping to keep them in for at least 3-4 weeks

I got the washing and conditioning part done, now I'm in bed with a towel on my head procrastinating.

It is not that pretty. My hair laughs hysterically at even flat irons. Though, admittedly I do not go above 230 degrees out of fear of heat damage. I will dig out a picture though, so give me a couple days.

How long can you keep henna in the freezer? I did a henna gloss and I placed half in the freezer. This was my first time freezing it.
 
Ever start doing something to your hair and laziness kicks in halfway thru the process?

I'm sitting here with henna that has been on my head for 12 hrs :look:. I planned to indigo after...ugh. I also need to cook.

And I just wanna stay in bed and chill today :sad:.
 
I'm actually excited hubby made no plans. I get to just chill, WASH this hair, and be left the heck alone.
|DETANGLE| giovanni ultra moist
|SHAMPOO| (scalp only) giovanni smooth as silk
|CONDITION| giovanni smooth as silk, also my leave in.
|MOISTURIZE| camille rose moisture milk
|GEL| mop top curly custard

Will twist for a twist out.
 
I didn't have time to wash, so I just threw it into an updo with a headband and called it a day.
Tomorrow I will clarify, deep condition, and twist with SM Super Fruit Complex Lotion/oil and cheap hair gel.
 
Washed and then DC's with a SheaMoisture Masque. My hair is now drying in large twists with Qhemet Biologics Amla & Olive Heavy Creme.

Girl please waist length natural 4 type flat iron hair can do no wrong in my eyes. I am sure it looked beautiful. But 230 degrees though? Lol. You must retain a lot of volume and body. I will patiently wait, lol.

Here are the pics. Don't laugh at me though, you can see in the pics that I don't know how to use a flatiron and it looks more like an amateur blow out :lol:.
