MHM Hangout

So do you dc at all with her regimen?

No there is no conditioner in this regimen. She says that the purpose of conditioner was to counter the effects of shampoo. Since we aren't shampooing there isn't any need to use conditioner. The clay will provide the necessary conditioning. If you are high porosity she recommends following the clay with an ACV or AVJ spritz.

I did actually find your post with the link, thank you. I have a little bit of leftover clay from my last washday, it's gonna be a watery mix. Watching the mail for my BnB package. Snowed-in here, campus is already closed for tomorrow so I'm going mini modified MHM tomorrow...mini because I think my clay might be too weak or watery, we shall see.

Are you in MD? My campus was closed today. I did the whole regimen including the cherry lola treatment. I forgot how long the whole regimen was.

If I try this and it works I'm going to be mad about the money I just spent restocking my NG Herbal blends :ohwell:

I definitely feel you on that :lol: I'm not throwing anything anyway :nono: I'm holding onto everything just in case I find a way to include them in my regi.

If it does work, just think how long the conditioners will last you now if you just use them every now and then :look:
 
What gel is everyone using? I ran out of everything at the same time. I'm using aloe Vera gel but I need to order some clay and gel. Can anyone give me advice? Picture is from dry hair today. The aloe Vera gel has no hold at all.

Nope, got people there but I'm in KY...we got a foot of snow last night! I did the modified version with the clay wash and gel only. I'm not dry yet but so far I really like this because of the very reason you mentioned-time.

I use Hello Curly which is now called Sweet Soul Magic. I love it. I try other gels but I always come back to this one.

We got a foot today, thanks for sending it our way lol. I have to continue reading everyone's entries. I need a modified version. But I haven't reached max hydration yet.

Does everyone do their hair in sections? Since my hair is short I just rub everything one. I don't section.

Hey ladies -
I'm going to start hanging out with you guys. I tried MHM again this time using approved product and in order and I am in LOVE!

OMG, my hair can out soooo soft and so defined.
Ok, back story - I usually wear wash n go's but this cold dry winter had been doing a number on hair. It's so dry and the frizz is uncontrollable. I've been wearing puffs mainly because I couldn't get more than 1 day hair out of my wng. I'm 1.5 year post relaxer BC'd to an inch of hair. (I trimmed a least 2 inches off thus far SSKs are the devil!)

Last night I washed with ACV
DC with baking soda and Tresseme naturals
DC with French clay mixed with coconut milk
AVJ as my moisturizer (I'm low-po so I hope this doesn't mess me up)
Styled with olive and flaxseed gel.

My hair looked and felt amazing as I styled. I don't like flaxseed gel so next time I'll use my faithful CM Curl Maker and going to get some hello curly (now sweat soul magic).
I plan on doing the method Wed's & Sunday.

Here's a pic of my results - YEEEESSS!

I use Kinky-Curly Curling Custard or Camille Rose Curl Maker
They both have challenges but the camille rose plays better with all of my leave-ins and the gel cast is not as hard as KCCC

BUT KCCC gives me better definition.

I refuse to try anything else until on of these is gone

I was using kccc but wanted to try something else. I was styling my hair for a while and got tired of it. I think I'll have to try Camilla.

Oh I am glad you are using this one because I did not want to go out on a limb and get screwed.

So a while back I used to love UFD curl magic or something and then they reformulated it was crap...but I heard hello curly had taken over UFD original recipe so I meant to try it but never did...so then I heard hello curly changed to sweet soul magic and UFD is back

Whew I feel like I said a mouthful but bottom line is sweet soul magic the same as hello curly or a little different?

Go for it plus you can get it at target so if you hate it just return it

You're welcome...I wasn't really sending it your way but I wanted it out of here! :)
I am doing sections and detangling as I go with everything except the cleanse step. I don't do sections then and I do minimal detangling.
 
Forgive me for being slow on the uptake. Am I correct in believing that Lo po ladies can skip the bs step and the DC step and go straight to clay and then leave in and styler? I am sorry it is this is obvious to everyone else, I just want to be right.

If you are talking about the new method, yes. You go straight to clay. Skip the leave-in and go straight to styler.

It's not clear to most people. This is a big shift from the beginning.
 
I'm going to the store to get my bananas and plantains for my CLCT next weekend. I was supposed to buy them last week to give them enough time to ripen but with the weather I procrastinated. Now I don't think I have enough time to let them ripen. I'm going to research to see if there is a way that I can force them to ripen. I may have to just throw them in the oven on low to force them to break down.

Sweet soul magic is the same as hello curly which is the same as the original UFD.
 
[USER said:
aharri23;21202695[/USER]]I didn't like it all, my hair was crunchy. Luckily I was able to scrunch it out with olive oil. I'll try again later, but for now I'm gonna keep using Sweet Soul Magic

Did you do DubaiDee's version of 1 tbsp in 1 cup of water and boil for 10? Or another recipe? I'm going to try it next week. If it doesn't work I will just stick with the CR Aloe.

Mine took about 6 days to ripen. I left them out in the kitchen

Yep I did! I didn't have a stocking/panty hose to strain it so I used a regular strainer and it was very thin so im not sure if that messed up my results. I also added a bit of argan oil and agave to it
