Im in, but I have a question. Does glycerin dry anyones elses hair out in the colder months? Mine was VERY dry, I had to switch up my regimen. Was I doing something wrong? Or should I use less?

For some people they can use the juice all year round without any problems, and for others it may not work as well in the colder months. It all depends on the climate you live in and your hairs personal preference,

Chelz, its so hot that I sometimes go to pool 2x a day. Thanks so much for pulling my coat about shea butter. I have been experimenting and once you get a nice coat of shea butter on your hair, it does a jennifer holiday on yo' head "And I am telling you I'm not going". Shealoe be on that chlorine like "Incoming! prepare to repell boarders!"

yeah, I was crazy enough to sit on bottom of pool with afro puff (TOTAL SUBMERSION) and left the pool with moisturized hair, no tangles, no dreds. I got enough of my sample batch of shealoe to scrape through the weekend then I need to make enough to last through early October. I will see how well this plays with the juice. you know S Curl trying to claim he was all up in there

S curl: I wuz there for you, girl! Shealoe aint everything, I wuz on the front line!

So do you mix your shea butter with aloe vera juice? :eyebrows2 I might have to try your shealoe mix if I happen to go swimming in the fall

Lol no those kinds of gels wont smooth your edges flat, they will define the wave/curl pattern in your hair while giving the wave/curl pattern a little hold...so basically its more for bringing out your texture

Alright, I think I get it now, thanks . Is the Ecostyler supposed to be a freeze type of gel, do you know? Or is it just the same as CFC's one? I had already bought the CFC gel before I saw Ecostyler in another shop, but I thought it best just to try one at a time.

Checking in. I was using S-Curl as my juice, but it was making my hair kinda greasy and sticky at the same time. Plus I didn't like the ingredients in it. Now I'm using water, glycerin and aloe vera as my juice. I just used it today and my NG is nice, soft, and moisturized so far. It helped to flatten my hair into a bun, too.

I have found a vegetable glycerin recipe that my hair LOVES!! I'm so glad too b/c I can use it as a daily spritz to fingercomb and go. It's 1/3 c. aloe vera gel, 1/3 c. vegetable glycerin, 6 oz rose water (from Whole Foods), and several drops of rosemary oil. Keeps my hair moisturized all day on its own. I was even able to decrease my baggying. When I do baggy (twice a week), I still use my trusty S-Curl, Amla & Olive & seal w/coconut oil.

Looks like the "juice" and I will have a long-lasting relationship! LOL

So do you mix your shea butter with aloe vera juice? :eyebrows2 I might have to try your shealoe mix if I happen to go swimming in the fall

I mixed shea butter, coconut oil and aloe vera gel (FOTE). I had a small amount of left over refined shea butter in a plastic tub and mixed it with same amount aloe vera gel and half amount coconut oil. I hope to get the proportions correct and get some unrefined shea butter soon. My shealoe goes on easily but the sucka goes straight up soldier when it hits water.

I'm having my au naturel weekend: clarified with baking soda rinse, coconut oil rinse, final acv rinse, aloe vera juice (food grade)to moisturize. Tonight I sprayed hair with distilled water before braiding and the water ran off my head. that aloe vera and coconut took poor Waterboy down like they wuz Spartans http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHxIssSROjk&videos=8-ib7-yDvmk

Ole S Curl still talking smack so I got a few spritz in ... oh oh, felt a trickle on left side. Aloe & Cokie only letting the GlycerinGurlz in tonight ... oh well, Ise JUICED

Which ecostyler gel are you referring to? Cause everyone says that the olive oil one makes your curls pop, so yeah

Checking in, I'm still juicin'

But...I don't know what anyone's talking about when it comes to curl definition because if anything, CFCG makes my hair too soft to be defined. I've started using CHI Keratin Mist under the CFCG, but I don't know how much that will help.

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

i've been adding aloe vera to my s-curl, but sometimes the stuff feels really heavy on my head.

i cowash daily, so it's not too much of a problem, but does anybody have any issues with buildup using this product?

bt, it's got a cone in it, but i forget if that one is water soluble, so if anybody knows if it is or not, that would be a great help! thanks!

My hair was well juiced and in a very simple style yesterday. I'm still using the rest of my WN. I combined it with the scarf method so I had waves making people seasick. Got compliments from both men and women but there is something about when an attractive man notices your hair and comments...
The juice is here to stay. Live by the juice, die by the juice. Thanks to Adora for starting all this and Chelz for cracking the whip!

Can Roux porosity control also be added to the morning juice as a leave in?
What about as a pre poo?

I've checked a few places and didnt see Roux porosity control. Any suggestions on where I can try or do I need to order on line?

Would Henna be a good protein treatment? If not can anyone suggest some good brands? Seems like the longer I'm on the board the more there is that I don't know yet.


Where would one find clear rinses?

I tried calrifying a week ago (bad move) and my hair has been a mess every since
I did a henna a few days ago. it helped but it's still not acting right.

Try a good moisturizing DC. Especially since you did a henna treatment which isn't a protein, but behaves like one. If you have overly porous hair it can take some time to get it back in order

Sally's and most BSS carry Roux products. I would recommend using it as directed first and see how that goes. Clear rinses are found @ most BSS and places like CVS and Rite-Aid. Adore and John freida and Elasta QP are some brands that I like.


Still juicin' with tha S-curl
