My hair gets mushy quickly if I steam every week, and also if I deep condition for a long time. If I use too much conditioner on my hair, my hair feels weak. My hair does great with 5-10 minutes of conditioning.
@almond eyes When you were spritzing were you drenching your hair? Do you think the temperature of the sprizt also played a role (opening your cuticles daily with warm water, plus steaming, maybe hot water washes as well...)?

I would spritz with a lot of warm water and then baggy for ten minutes. I would not use hot or cold water on a daily basis spritzing or through the shower. I would also not recommend daily moisturizing and sealing or baggying daily. Fine hair cannot be over manipulated.
Baggying makes your hair mushy and weak. Wouldn't recommend it to anyone. People only do it for softness not knowing having super soft hair like that isn't good. Just like hard rough hair.
Yes I discovered that a long time ago as well. After baggying for a week my hair would stretch and then snap off. So much breakage! So then i try overnight dc to try and repair and give it some strength...it was so weird because it seemed detangled & nice but it was sooo crispy when it dried.
I quit all that and just moisturize every 3 or 4 days now. Leave in & pomade after washing. My hair thrives with this regimen.
