Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-)

Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

In another thread, someone stated -- "I would avoid products containing glycerin as it acts as an humectant and might cause your hair to dry and frizz up in the heat." I live in FL and it's definitely hot and humid. What's your take on this?

I've heard the opposite, that products containing glycerin work better in warmer weather. I think this is one of those situations where what works for one person may not work for another. All I know is my hair loves it. :grin:

I'm out of town and I'm cheating on my s-curl. I couldn't find anything except that right on activator/moisturizer. It made my hair very soft and moist, but if the stickiness isn't gone by morning, I won't continue using it.

I used aohc which has glycerin to do my flat twist along w/ oil & olive oil eco styling gel to see if I could have a define low frizz twist out. I will post if it makes my hair really frizzy in this new york humid heat wave.

Is anyone 'baggying nightly or frequently' with the Jheri Juice method of retention? How is that working for you?

I whole head baggy nightly and it's going so-so. My hair is damp by morning but not soaked and feels soft and moisturized. I style my hair in a bun, put on my satin scarf while I dress and by the time I arrive to work, my roots and length of my hair is dry although the bun is still a bit damp. The bun usually dries before my day is done. The part where my pontail holder is doesn't usually dry but I try to air it out at night before starting the process all over again -- moisturize (juice)/seal, baggy. Where I'm struggling is that my hair feels moisturized all day while at work but by nightfall when it's time to take the bun down, it's like all the moisture has been pulled out the part that was bunned and it feels thirsty for more moisture. The roots and length of my hair remains soft and moisturized. Anyone have suggestions to keep the part bunned equally as moisturized?

Just bought a new 32oz bottle of Scurl...I use it morning and night and anytime in between but I'm hoping that I can stretch this one out until the end of the Sept....we shall see. I killed the last one quickly.


ya know why "you killed the last bottle so quickly"?!

cuz ya got so much hair!!!:lachen::grin:

isn't it wonderful to go through stuff that used to last at least half a year in just a matter of weeks? well, that's growth for ya!:yep:

LOL!! It sure is wonderful! I am willing to pay $10 for the 32oz of Scurl whenever I need to because it's a hair-saver. I can't believe that I went so long without even knowing about this stuff!

:lachen: Dang Platinum got enough juice to last til the end of time, :endworld:


Hows the natural fro doing? :grin:

:lol:

Girl, I'm loving my natural hair.:love: I just wish I would have committed to become natural when I joined LHCF, there's no telling how much progress I would have had by now.:ohwell:
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

Today I juiced with my baggy and I am hiding my hair under a wig - my hair is ultra moisturized and feels amazing. I can't wait to see what retention I will receive from this method!
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

Still juicing with BRX Braid Spray.
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

Is it too late to join? I had a recent setback :nono:. I need this challenge to get back on track.
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

:thud: Well why not??? A certain hairstyle or something? :nervous2:
Yes and no. I tried a deep conditioner that rattled my curls and I have yet to find something as good a CFCG sans the copious amounts of protein. I've been looking but nothing yet. And most recently I put heat to my hair and it's all straight now which is a change from my usual wet and go's. It's nice to know the length (Still SL approaching APL and about 5-6 inches from BSL) when it's stretched.
Also, I got a new job and my curls in my opinion are uniform enough nor long enough to be just worn out. My edges are kind of a mess when curly. I just really like going with out the curls but I know that I can get em back. And I was sick of wiggin it.

I haven't read anything. I'm about 33 pages behind. I got a new job a few weeks ago and I ain't been able to get on the internet at work. Ain't that about a blip. Baby afrikurl and I are still juicing with Long aid and the homemade spritz. I just put in interlocks, AKA crochet braid on sunday and I love them, I spray the home made juice on my hair every night
Dorry worry chelz I will get you some pitchas.

Have you ever tries slicking your edges back or wearing a nice headband to keep them down? And what oher juices have you tried, maybe you can try some of those natural products that have glycerin,:yep:
