Do you use condishioner daily to moisturize?

Do you wash 2-3x per week?

Do you use oils daily?

Do you spritz with water or glycerin and or both daily?

How many products do you ise daily and how often ?

I am trying to get away from the conditioner and oils daily. I exercise 2x per week and I use a raw shea butter soap bar 2xper week with frankincence and myrrh. I then just use the same mix (without the soap of course) daily with a spritz of water and that is only to get my hair from being flat.

My hair seems fine no problems I don't comb or brush that is all I do. I want to get away from so much stuff, gel/kcc, conditioners, oil and all of that.

It seems my hair needs washing more often when I use all of that other stuff and it does not smell good. I love to have nice smelling hair. The raw shea butter frankincense and myrrh levae my hair smell so good.

PS I am 4a


Thanks in advance..

JW but why are you trying to get away from all the yummy oils and condishes?

Do you use condishioner daily to moisturize? I use Lustrasilk SBMC mixed with aloe vera gel as a leave in.

Do you wash 2-3x per week? I use to shampoo 2-3 days a week and my hair was a mess. Now I cowash 2-4 times a week and shampoo once every week and a half or as needed.

Do you use oils daily? Nope

Do you spritz with water or glycerin and or both daily? No

How many products do you use daily and how often ? My typical shower reggie: Cowash, condition with a different conditioner, do the leave in I mentioned and im done :)
ETA: And if im gunna shampoo I prepoo with whatever I have laying around beforehand.
 
I am having a really bad allegic reation and trying to cut back. I am allergic to everythingit seem like.

I am trying to stay with product that are natural. My face has broken out from oils running when I sweat. (It is so hot hear in nc) plus with exercise.

UGH! girl i feel you there. I just recently realized that my hair and hair products have been breaking me out in these terrible teeny tiny pimples all over my face. Now im more careful (sleep with hair up, washing face more often etc) and they have pretty much completely gone away (in 2 weeks)

Having a towel/washcloth with you when you workout is good to dab on your hairline before the sweat reaches your face. I keep a pack of tissues in purse for the same reason while im out and about cuz VA has been hot as hell!!

I am transitioning....can I answer? I plan to keep the same regimen when I am natural as well since my new growth has taken a liking to it.

Do you use condishioner daily to moisturize? No I use diluted Vo5 to moisturize after I wash or every 3 days.

Do you wash 2-3x per week? I used to wash twice a week but I've cut down to once a week. If I only wash once a week, then I'll moisturize my hair the day that would've been my second wash.

Do you use oils daily? No I use a mix of raw shea butter, coconut oil, castor oil, sunflower oil, and evoo on the days I moisturize my hair.

Do you spritz with water or glycerin and or both daily? I used to spritz with water daily but I've realized my hair stays moisturized when I only apply products twice a week.

Do you use condishioner daily to moisturize?

No. When wearing my hair out, I use S Curl and only on wash day. The days after and before my next wash, there's no need to re-moisturize as S Curl lasts me for days when I baggy at night.

Do you wash 2-3x per week?

Yes; 2x per week.

Do you use oils daily?

No, I don't use them at all.

Do you spritz with water or glycerin and or both daily?

No, I use S Curl and not daily. I decided to leave the making of moisturizers to those who've been doing it for years.

How many products do you ise daily and how often ?
When wearing my hair out, I use S Curl and not daily. Only on wash day. Anymore would be overkill since my hair stays moisturized for days. When wearing braids (as I am now) or twists, I don't use any products at all in my hair.

i have been having the same problems, with this ORS Olive Oil Lotion i'm using. it even makes my forehead itch. this stuff has got to go. also, even though glycerin is GREAT on my hair, its horrible on my skin. its got to go too cuz i'm not tryin to have an ugly arse forehead with pretty hair. :ohwell: i have sensitive skin and Qhemet seems to be pretty mild. i didn't have any breakouts with this stuff. ♥

are you using glycerin from the BS? If so maybe try using vegetable glycerin from a health food store. I use and it is awesome. I'm not "greasy" like the kind from the BS eiher, lol. Just a thought.
 
Do you use condishioner daily to moisturize? yes sometimes. I condition my hair at least 4-5times a week. And I also apply extra oil after wash out conditioners.

Do you wash 2-3x per week? Yes and No! I prepoo with a herbal shampoo and then I wash with a moisturizing shampoo. I do this with a deep conditioner at least once a week.

Do you use oils daily? Yes. Shea Butter Oil, Olive Oil, Tea Tree Oil, and African Oil. I also use Care Free Curl Activator, and S-Curl products to moisturize.

Do you spritz with water or glycerin and or both daily? No. Never tried this before.

How many products do you ise daily and how often ? I use about 2-3 items daily. Sometimes I may deep condition without washing and sometimes I wash and use a leave in conditioner. I use gel sometimes. I think my hair looks great being as though that i am trying different things.
 
Do you use condishioner daily to moisturize?

nope, i use a moisture mix/spray daily. daily product application would lead to build up for my scalp ... ask me how i know :grin::nono::look::grin: ... so daily spraying is usually it for me ... but i'll add, if i feel my hair needs it, i'll follow with a creamy leave-in/oil -- but usually the spray is enough. you gotta learn to listen to your hair.
this works for me because i'm usually in twists or braids, protective styles that hold moisture better than loose hair. my hair's happiest when it's clumped in some form or another.
when i wear straight styles, obviously i can't spray it (which is another reason why i don't wear them very often or long:drunk::spinning::grin:) so i use oil -- coconut, olive, melted shea (you'll use less, so it goes on lighter), avocado, or castor mixed with something lighter.

Do you wash 2-3x per week?

i co-wash once a week -- keeps me from going through my products too fast as well :grin: also on the weekend i have the time to do it right (dc/no-poo/layer products) & not have to rush through anything. it's a process.

Do you use oils daily?

no & yes ... daily moisture mix, now commonly known as da juice ... is still primarily water/glycerin, but my mix usually has like a teaspoon of oil in it per bottle ... i just make sure to shake it a 'lil before i spray.

Do you spritz with water or glycerin and or both daily?

yes both, water/veggie glycerin mix

How many products do you use daily and how often
one daily mixed spray
dc/co-wash/seal once a week, but i hydrate/spray my hair daily, like a luscious, flowering plant :grin::look::perplexed:grin:
 
Do you use condishioner daily to moisturize?
No. I actually dont moisturize daily.
Do you wash 2-3x per week?
It depends. If i am doing daily workouts in the morning that week, im cowashing daily. If not, im in a twist or braidout and wash every 2 to 3 days.
Do you use oils daily?
No. I seal with shea butter on wash day, so i dont have to seal or moisturize daily.
Do you spritz with water or glycerin and or both daily?
No.
How many products do you ise daily and how often ?
On non wash days, none except a little shea butter to tame flyaways and the like. On wash days, i apply either a moisturizer or HEHH and seal with shealoe or my shea butter whipped with olive oil. I might apply a clear gel then, but not always.
I am trying to get away from the conditioner and oils daily. I exercise 2x per week and I use a raw shea butter soap bar 2xper week with frankincence and myrrh. I then just use the same mix (without the soap of course) daily with a spritz of water and that is only to get my hair from being flat.

You might try leaving in a not so smelly condish and sealing with your shea butter. Im a 4a too, and this is often times enough to hydrate, and define, my kinks and coils.

Answers above-hth!
