Sloww down there Choc, thats quite a mix, :lol:


Have you gone swimming lately with shea and aloe?

I did water aerobics this morning and used last of shealoe on my skin today. Shealoe is excellent in my hair and has to be washed out with a clarifier or the buildup is immediate. I find that oil rinses (coconut, coconut hibiscus, sunflower, hemp) also provide excellent protection against chlorine, wash out with conditioner, less buildup.

I used the juice mix and hemp oil on 8.9.2010 before I braided hair and 3 days later, after being in pool, 2 rain storms, fishing with a Gilligan hat on my head in 95 degrees ... my hair is moisturized, tangle free. I'm not giving up my shealoe because its immediate protection for hair and skin, just rub it in, no refrigeration necessary. The hemp oil has a shorter shelf life but gave a good performance for a spoonful of oil. I'm gonna ride dat pony http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVMKQP0K3a0 and see what it can do :lachen::lachen:

havent checked in since sign up but im still juicing it with Hawaiian 14 :)
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

Uh oh! I think I stumbled on the HG for my hair. I was trying to figure out a juice/detangling combo to mix in one bottle that would meet the TSA size specs. So I got an empty conditioner bottle and added about a half and half mixture of Luster's Right on Curl and Skala Aloe Leave in.

I condition washed with the little hotel condish this morning, towel dried, shook up my mix and applied it to my hair. I put a little Hollywood Beauty "olive oil" on top and my hair feels GREAT!

I am juicing the heck out of these braids. I wash & DC once a week and I juice every day x2

Oh so if you wash and DC once a week do you find that you have a lot of build up since you are juicin 2x a day?

Are you in natural braids or extensions?

box braids or cornrolls?

Any transitioners getting moisture overload from s curl? My relaxed hair was okay, but my natural hair felt mushy from s curl. When i washed my hair my natural hair was stretching way too much in my opinion. It resulted in a long careful detangling session. I've switched to hawaiian silky 14 in 1. It seems better.

I had that problem too when i was transitioning. But weather you are transitioning/natural/relaxed you have to make sure you are giving your hair a good moisture/protein balance other wise your hair will turn to mush with too much moisture, or turn to straw with too much protein. Its like yen vs yang. Everything must have a balance.

How I balance my moisture protein:
Protein Co-wash: Mega Tek OR Aubrey Organics GBP
Moisture Co-wash: Suave Almond & Shea butter conditioner (staple product)

I do a protein AND moisture co-wash on the same day, first protein then moisture. I have less shedding and very balanced hair.

I also use Aphogee spray leave-in conditioner (has protein in it) Followed by S-curl for moisture. Then i bun and go!

The switch to HS14n1 was a good one. It has protein in it I think and I've had no problems AT ALL with too much moisture. I don't have to do extra protein treatments it's a one stop shop. I've never tried anything else so I can't compare sorry. But just to post again here are the ingredients!

Water, Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Mineral Oil, PEG-47 Lanolin, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearalkonium Chloride, Polysorbate-60, Triethanolamine, Acetimide AME, Hydrolized Vegetable Protein, Stearyl Alcohol, Propylparaben, Methylparaben, Menthol, Panthenol DL, Jojoba Oil, Anjelica Root Extract, Articum Lappa Root Extract, Chamomilla Recutita Extract, Symphytum Officinale Leaf Extract, Mistletoe Extract, Nettle Extract, Oatmeal Extract, Rosemary Leaf Extract, Sage Leaf Extract, Nasturtium Officinale Extract, Methylchloroisothiazolinone, Methylisothizolinone, Fragrance

My new growth and relaxed hair LOVES this!

Let your SOUL GLOW!

Still using my Scurl, CHI keratin and oils.... my sister bought this spray hair gel from Garnier Fructis.... I used it today... last night I co washed, put my hair in a ponytail, made two twist and used a flexi rod to hold the twist. Then I woke in the morning and used the above with the gel and it seems cool.... However, I should have twisted tighter and made five twist instead of two to define the curls..... ill try again tomorrow.

Getting some StaSofFro from the grocery store to replace my Donna Marie Moisture Mist since it will run out soon. Trying to see if I can use it as a cheap alternative in the meantime until I am ready to buy some more DM in a bulk order.

Stasofro had too much glycerin for my hair liking and the smell was really strong.u
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

juiced with cfcg (although this is not my fav juicing prod) and applied a little HE LTR, baggy'd for a few hours, sealed and now I'm ready for bed. GN LHCF
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

Back to juicing after I had my Curl Fro installed yesterday.

that sounds yummy .. Do you melt the shea butter and mix it with aloe? Does it ever solidify?
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

Hi ladies!!! I haven't posted in awhile:look:. Been trying to take my mind off of hair. My hair is braided up (my own hair) and wig as my protective style. I'm still using HS 14 in 1 every morning after my cowash!
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

Ok so.... dumb question.
What is everyone going to do when it gets cooler outside (unless you live in a humid area)?
I know I can't use glycerin when it gets cooler here. Does having your hair under a wig qualify as a humid environment? Lol.
 
Re: Part 2 of The Jheri Juice Challengeee!!!! Want retention?? Well Come on in!!!! ;-

juiced and waiting for my hair to air dry lol
