MHM Hangout

[hairtimes5]

Pics before installing my mini twists and then after. It took me about 8-10hrs in a course of 2days. I used shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie and Giovanni gel as my styler. I primarily used the gel for the front.

Very pretty, I'm jealous. Although my strands are medium to coarse in some areas, my hair isn't real dense to my mini twists look real scalpy.

While I was in Target today I picked up the Tresemme' Perfectly (un) Done conditioner. I can't wait to try it out tomorrow, it seems very promising as a cw and maybe leavein though I love me some kckt.

I have two and a half giant bottles of the other Tresemme formulas so I can't right now but the PJ in me wants to try the undone so badly. It's been below zero here so I haven't been able to do my daily co-wash so I've had a fro for the better part of the week and today I tried a puff which was somewhat successful. I am getting movement when I shake my head when my hair is fully dry, I'm getting excited. I wish I could say I have something picture worthy. Cleansed with Tresemme and BS, Currently DC-ing overnight with my new love Herbal Blends and will clay in the AM.

Girl don't I know but the price tag pulled me in, Lol. I literally have Tresemme bottles everywhere; in the kitchen for quick access for mixing, in the bathroom in the shower, on the counter for styling and some stored underneath the vanity...and now this one sitting on my nightstand. I've gone conditioner insane but my hair thanks me.

As for you, if you're getting movement on dry hair then you're definitely in a good place. I need to order some of that Herbal blends. I'm closing on a house in a few weeks that I'm representing both the buyer and seller so I'm going shopping for conditioner, gel and clays!

The other day my daughter and I were in the self-checkout line at the grocery store when I asked why was she using so many bags? Her response: don't you need them for our hair? My response: my girl!

I'm sick. SO had it last weekend; this week is my turn. I hadn't washed my hair in a little over a week and I didn't have it in me to do the full MHM thing, so I just prepooed with VO5 Clarifying cond and cowashed with some kinda mask. My coils were popping (even SO noticed and he don't notice ish), but I no longer see any forward momentum in my bang area. I see I'ma have to get back on my grind.

Where are we buying our clay these days, ladies? I'm almost out.

I get my clay from a natural food market.

I order mine through Amazon. I need reorder some bentonite soon.

I buy mine from New Directions Aromatics...2.2 lbs of rhassoul for 8 bucks (its on sale!) 2 lbs usually lasts me a whole year but with this new regi we'll see!

This digging hands into my hair thing is starting to get annoying. I don't know what you've been doing with your hands all day. You can't just attack my hair without permission. Whoosah!

KiWiStyle That daughter of yours is something...a girl after my own heart...LOL! About the hair care and thrifty to boot...awesome.

 

[Cattypus1]

DC-ed overnight and then some in the morning because I had to shovel snow--gazebo crashed under the weight of the snow and freezing rain so I got a little heat going from the workout...LOL. Got my clay on...rhassoul with honey, ACV and very warm water. I use the last of my mixture on my face so I'm getting a facial too

This is a pic of my hair immediately after rinsing the clay. I have to say the I am pleased. MHM may not be for everyone. It may take lots of time and experimentation while you're learning what works and what doesn't. Through it all no matter which products I've used or how many styling or conditioning failures I've had the one constant is that I am retaining...zero breakage! This is the HG of the method for me and the main reason I will stick with it. I just had to share that.

Oh boy, I hope that wasn't an expensive problem. I love clay facials, I think I'll get one in today when I do my regimen.

I don't really know if I'm there or not. I know that my hair is a thousand times better than before I started MHM back in November. I'm not really sure what MH looks or feels like on my hair. I love this HJ.

Very nice curls and definition.

Look up DanaBNatural on YouTube, she's reach MH and her hair is very similar to ours. Her hair in the beginning looks very similar to mine when I started.

How long do you leave your clay on?

I learned something else today. My hair need both the clarify and clay steps for maximum penetration of the moisture in steps 2&4.

Do we actually have a link to where the tresemme Perfectly undone has in fact been approved by msdeekay or pinkcube? I was about to use it when my inner voice said, STOP!

ETA: my inner voice should have said read first...nevermind, I compared the labels.

This is why I do it - NO BREAKAGE. I am a 3c with total definition but I need it to reduce tangles and breakage. I am glad to have someone else say it, i know that people are getting tired of hearing me say it.

So I've stopped using baking soda and now use Castile soap mixed with conditioner. I love the results. No scalp itching at all even when I DC overnight. I just order the trader joe's conditioner and will be using this for step 1 going forward. I've been doing some research and some people have been mixing Castile soap with coconut milk for step 1. Interesting. Thoughts?

My thoughts are to make sure you aren't coconut or protein sensitive before using coconut milk in anything.

You are probably fine to do this. As KiWiStyle said though, this option isnt good for low porosity hair.

Today I had it on about 45 minutes but usually I'll do an hour or so.

Uh uh, girl, say it! I so wanted to hurry out of the TWA stage and I didn't realize that MHM would help get me there. I have always thought that I was a slow grower until MHM. I'm a 4-something, maybe a-b. I don't think I'm a c but maybe MHM has me fooled.

Yassss!! Since discovering this method my hair has been growing like weeds. I'm also 4a/b. This reggie has helped me ALOT with retention & understanding my hair.
