I'm picking up my package from the post office this evening. I really need to do a protein treatment. I haven't done a protein treatment on my hair since 2010. I have so many strands of hair with holes all alone the hair strand 
. I'm going to do the mud wash first then do my protein treatment this weekend. I may even steam my hair (haven't done that either in close to a year). I'll post my results.
I purchased the big bottle of the lemon one, and two 8-ounce bottles - one lavender and one cool mint. I'm going to use the lemon one first. I'm going to do a sugar scalp scrub then the mud wash.

Use the Lemon today. I placed my hair in about 8 twists. I cleaned my scalp with ACV (forgot to dilute it; thank God nothing bad happened). I immediately rinse the ACV from my hair throughly. Next, I took a small amount of mud and raked it through the length of my hair and apply a small amount to my scalp and rub it in.
Wash the mud out in the shower and detangle. Out of habit I put my shea mixture in some of my twists. But I stopped because I wanted to see if my hair will still be moisturized without any added product.
Ladies, my hair doesn't feel heavy and the parts not moisturized feels moistruized! Also it was very easy to detangle my hair and I love how my curls POP!
I absolutely love this product. I'm going to go ahead and do the detox. I still have the Ovation Cell therapy I'm using, so I may either sell it or finish using it up, since there is only like 20% or less left in the bottle.
But I'm definitely giving away/selling my shampoos and conditioners. I finally found a staple product!!

I love this mud shampoo very much, I did not do the detox I just washed my hair with it and continued as i always have done and eventually my hair was very clean and healthy and its worth the money to me, i will continue to the use the product and if I wanted deep conditioning, I just leave the mud on my hair longer. nothing beats the detangling. Wow its wonderful. I haven't combed my hair in months. Terresentials is a keeper

I haven't given up on this yet. I love what it does for my scalp and how strong my hair feels. I'm going to do a DC after I use the mud wash and see if I like it better that way. I get my hair done at the salon, so I'll probably take the mud with me. I'm sure they'll think I'm crazy, but so what.
I'm starting to wonder if my scalp hates creamy type of shampoos and conditioners. Normally my salp is always irritated. This is the first time I haven't DC'd in a long time an did not use use a creamy type of shampoo and my scalp feels better than it has ever felt.

^^^ yes Im also a bit curious^^^
maybe she posted in the wrong thread, because terressentials isnt creamy
ANYHOO
I wore my hair in a twistout today, from the twists I had in on Sunday which a sealed with I think sweet alsmod oil. I rubbed some SSI coco creme leave in just before I undid.
hair is soft and moisturized, and holds the curl well, considering I didnt use a product to "set" it.
I can only see my hair improving. I was looking at Naptural85s hair and it also has inmproved with time using the mud wash, much less frizzy and more shiny.
we dont have similar hair texture but I can only expect (or hope) that my hair will also improve to be less frizzy and more shiny

hay Skiggle i didnt get the sultry spice, only left coast lemon and cool mint, both scents Im not too fond of, the LCL smells like dishwashing liquid and cool mint smells like colgate toothpaste, but they both work well and I like the tingle and sinus clreaing benefits of the cool mint lol
terresentials needs to get some bakery scents
what does the sultry spice smell like?

I have no idea! I'm getting mine off a swapboard. I just don't want to smell like a pumpkin pie, lol. Hope it works out! Will update.

That was a typo. Meant to say that I wanted to try a dc with it, not use it as a dc. I love that my scalp isn't itching, so I'm not giving up on it just yet.
I get my hair done at the salon, so I might take this in as my shampoo.

Since my terressentials wasn't here yesterday, I made my own mud wash. I think I will keep tweaking my recipe. It turned out pretty good. I used 1/2 cup of bentonite clay, 2 tablespoons of almond, sesame, rose hip and vanilla oil. I added a couple of drops of sweet orange essential oil. I added enough aloe vera juice to mimic the same consistency of terressentials. I used my stick blender. It turned out pretty well. I still like terressentials better for now. I think when I am done tweaking my recipe I will probably start making it as needed. I had everything here at home.

^^^ the base ingredients of the terressential mud washes are Organic aloe vera juice, clay minerals (bentonite clay), organic extracts linden flower, nettle, chamomile and shavegrass (horsetail), so I guess its not difficult to replicate, just to get the right ratios
the only herb I didnt know is the linden flower and I just looked it up, its mucilaginous and I guess thats what gives the great slip, maybe one could substitute marshmallow or slippery elm

I use to use henna, before Terressentials, and I use V05 strawberries and cream moisture milk conditioner to co-wash with. They cost about $1 and can help to get the gritty henna out.

hmmm maybe I will get some Hair Veda moistpro (is that the name) its pretty cheap, not vo5 cheap but hay.

I don't really use a conditioner to wash my henna out. I just rinse until the water is runs clear. Then I take a small amount of my fave cheapie White Rain and work it through each section...I do this for "SMELL" purposes only. I just don't like the constant after smell of barnyard hay that henna leaves me with!

I wash with terressentials first then henna. I then just rinse with water because it rinses easily. Then I DC with my regular conditioner.
I use morrocco method henna and they recommend filling a sink with water, placing a little oil in it and rinsing in the water. I did it once but didn't find it necessary.

Im sure the softness will come in time, are you doing the detox?
it wasnt util abt wash 8 or maybe 9 (day 3 of the detox) that the spoftness stayed for me.
In fact my ends were a bit parched the first 2 days, with just adding a leave in and light oil, and I was getting a bit antsy because I am just getting my bushy breaky ends under control.now they are doing pretty well
hontesly it only gets better each time you wash. In fact the 60 minute wash really turned things around for me during the detox. I would do 1 wash with diluted mud @ 1 tbs mud to 3 tbs water, then a 60 min wash with undiluted mud (put on a plastic cap and let the mud sit for 60 mins)
