People are using a lot of different recipes, so they will share what is working for them.
If you are using rhassoul, I use 1 cup of water 6 to 8 tbsp of clay, 1/2 tsp of oil and 1/8 tsp of ACV.

I would have held out for the 25% though

Make sure your condish leans on the moisturizing rather than the protein side though
Do come back and tell us how your hair liked it!

Just watched dubaidee's clay washing vid. If only! She makes it look so easy. I'm realizing I have a whole lot of hair on my head.

Has anyone (low porosity ladies in particular) had any issues with dryness or breakage? What I've noticed is my hair is less bushy. I both like it and am nervous about it.
My stretched hair is just shy of my shoulders, so the hang time is nice now, however I can see this being not to attractive when it finally grows past apl. Any observations? Ideas?

I ordered on the 28th using the discount code, standard shipping. I got my notice on the 6th and my clay arrived today. Yours should be here this week since you did two-day.

On the contrary my hair is so hydrated that I experience less and less dryness and therefore the potential for breaking with each session. My hair is still somewhat bushy but that's usually for 2nd day or more hair. And I rather like it

I should have DC-ed after the clarify step. I didn't, big mistake! Very tangly, kinda stiff. I think my clay mix needs modification. Right now I'm using water, honey and a little ACV. I have some aloe Vera juice and I think that will be in my next recipe. I'm doing a braid out after today's session. Trust me, a new MHM session will happen Wednesday or Thursday at the latest.

Why did you choose not to DC after clarifying? Did you clarify and then the clay step?

This is 2nd day hair. After clay+conditioner, leave-in, A quarter size of curl activator and gel.
I got my gel application process down! It's all done in the shower. I rake the gel through my hair as if i'm wrapping my hair into a doobie...then I shake it out and curls magically appear!
Did I say MHM is the best concept EVER today??
Well let me tell all the lurkers with super dry hair 
MHM is the best process i've come across to keep my nappy, kinky, fragile, fine hair happy! Go on you know you wanna try it!

I co-sign on butters n bars rhassoul clay being much better than the bulkapothecary one. I normally mix my clay with ACV however this time I used the butters n bars rhassoul clay and the clay was reacting with the ACV so after I took the top off my applicator bottle a lot of the clay squirted out. Whenever I mix ACV with the bulkapothecary one nothing happens, so im assuming the clay is bad because it should react when mixed with ACV. I'm gonna call them and see if I can get a refund because I spend about $40 on it.
Anyways my curls are hanging more and my hair feels a lot better. Thank you all who suggested using the Butters n Bars rhassoul.

Detangling my hair. I want to kill myself.

My hair is definitely more hydrated. My hair has come so far that I met it dry with no product and don't go into a panic. This weekend I did it twice and after it dried put some oil on it and twisted it up. My twist out was still soft. Never could have done that before.
I still get breakage but that's due to an issue pre mhm and my hair is also color treated. But the breakage decreases each month. I'm retaining more than I have in the past two years.

So do I but maybe not as much as you. I followed her method of separating the strands, which she shows on Instagram, my arms were so tired and I think it took me an hour
Hopefully it pays off.

Finally did my clay. I used my recipe on the left and DubaiDees on the right to compare. They both worked about the same. The left front side of my hair really frizzed up though. Next wash I will flip sides to see if there is an issue with my left side or if DubaiDees recipe works better for my hair.
I really diluted my kckt. I'm wondering if I can water it down like her flax seed gel and spray it on. I will put that on my to do list.

What's in the SM masque? All clays and claylike substances are not created equally.
What's in your bentonite mix that may be leaving your hair feeling coated?
Today's process will be a clay DC, leave-in and a styler...bought new gel yesterday. I couldn't stop myself!!
I'll be back with pics from various stages of my process. Oh and I did get that job I interviewd for. I was conflicted for about 2 seconds...the 1st thought i had when they told me i got the job was "How in the heck am I supposed to MHM with a full time position?"

If you are just starting with the bentonite, your hair can feel coated up to the 1st, 5 to 7 washes while it removes build up from the hair. If you are still in the early stages, keep your clay mix simple with small amounts of honey and oil to allow the clay to detox your hair.
You are free to use the SM but it's not a replacement for clay because it has more butters in it than clay.

I can't remember what you were trying to do. If you did the shampoo clarify you were supposed to do a CLCT after that. Why did you clarify? I can't remember.
