Oils,Grease,Pomades,Butters,Lotions,Cremes Challenge 2014

Used Darcy's Botanicals Pumpkin Seed Moisturizer on dry hair. My hair was very soft and fluffy. Works great as a leave in for me.
 
I used:

Qhemet Biologics Burdock Root Butter Creme as a leave in

Anabelle's Perfect Blends Pumpkin Spice Hair and Body Butter to seal and

Dax Pomade on edges


I am using grease on my edges as an experiment. I actually have plenty of 'edges'. When I was a kid I tried to cut them off and my Mom was absolutely not cosigning that. :lachen:

In any case, I have been testing petroleum products on my edges. After using mineral oil gel on the edges on my left side I notice a difference in length in as little as a month. My edges on my left side were growing like Rapunzel and it was rather confusing since I did not expect for grease to have that effect. I used Dax Pomade to finger coil my edges and it looks great. The experiments continue. :grin:

I can't do MHM because I am pretty sure you can't use grease if you are doing that. No matter. If it turns out this actually works, it will definitely become part of my regimen.
 
If my goal is to achieve thicker hair, how do I apply JBCO? Is it on the scalp or on the actual hair. (In the past, I have used it to grow in my edges, so I applied it on the scalp, but now I want to thicken up my hair so I'm a little confused as to how to use it)

What do you mean when you say “thicken your hair"?

If you mean increase density (more hair on head) apply JBCO to your scalp like you did for your edges.

If you mean to coat/condition (each hair strand looks thicker) you have several application methods:

1. Apply to slightly damp hair as an overnight prepoo (20 min heat optional)
2. Mix with Ayurvedic or penetrating oils & apply to dry hair as an overnight prepoo (20 min heat optional)
3. Mix with deep conditioner & use heat for 20-30 minutes. Let cool & rinse out.
4. Use on wet clean hair as oil rinse.
5. Mix with leave in conditioner/moisturizer & apply to length.
6. Add 1Tbs to liquid refresher & spray hair daily.
7. Apply a small amount to hair length as sealant.

Hope this helps...Happy Hair Growing:-)

elasta qp is still my ish!!! some days I just need one product. That was today. My hair was dry and frizzy. I slathered on some mango butter, smoothed my edges into a ponytail and went out the door. No spray bottle. No layering. No mixing. No fuss. I'm also happy that I can buy it for less online. I was paying $6.99 at Bed Bath and Beyond when Walmart is selling it for $4.59 (original formula) online. It keeps my hair so soft.
 
APB watermelon leave in on my twists.
I also applied some glean oil in anticipation of take down on Monday I need to start oiling.
 
Jakeala reminds be of Oyin BSP consistency-wise.

I'm tryna' decide if I like a creamy Coffee or a Oil based pomade type Coffee.
