Porosity Control Challenge!

Def in! I will be using ACV as my final rinse on wash days (1x/week) and mixing PC w/my cheapie condish on co-wash days (1x/week)...
 
COUNT ME IN! Yay my first challenge!!
I just washed my hair last night and used the PC con after DC'ing with heat. I will continue with this and possible use an ACV rinse after my next wash (I wash twice a week). I loved the results and my hair is STILL soft! I'm so happy, I was beginning to think there was no hope for my hair! I have the PC poo so I'll use that as my second poo after my Nioxin. Tiffers, I'm going to try your wet bun under my wig also.
 
I would love to join this challenge. I use PC and i love it. I'll be using it as a final rinse after dc'ing. I may venture into mixing it with my DC but for now i'll use as a final rinse.
 
Please count me in. This will be my first challenge ever! I'm so excited. :grin:

I plan to use PC twice a week. Once for a normal DC/wash and another with my co-wash conditioner.
 
Count me in!

I have the ayurvedic shampoo bar. I haven't used it yet.

I have the ayurvedic butter. The smell is not that fantastic cause you know how those powders do. I like the consistency. A little bit goes a long way too. Sometimes I use it as a prepoo or as my hair grease (yes I love hair grease).

I am in love with the coconut hair butter. It's light and has a whipped consistency. I use this as a prepoo or as my hair grease. A little bit goes a long way.

As I said in a previous post I also love the acv bar. When I saw it I thought it was such a great idea. I learned of the products through a product pusher's post. I clicked on her blog and it was over.
 
Heeeeeyy Tiffers! I do this all the time already so I might as well join in. I'm a PC Princess too!
-I wash 2ce a week
-DC every time
-Always follow with PC (unless I use something else that specifically addresses porosity)
 
Over here! Pick me :meme: I want to join :grin:

-Which will you be using, PC or ACV?
I'll be using just ACV until my RPC gets here in the mail

-How often will you be using PC/ACV?
I'll be using them on my wash day 1x a week​


-How will you be using PC/ACV?
Well today I'm going to experiment with it by using it after I shampoo, leaving it in and DCing on top of that, got the idea from this post:​

After I get my PC in the mail, I'll be using that after my DC​

I've done final ACV rinses in the past and they left my hair smelling like ACV. I was only using 1 tbsp of ACV to 2 cups of water :ohwell:​

Okay, you got me really wanting the acv bar and butters!!!!!

Does the acv bar give you the same effect as acv?

IDK much about FSP, does it have a low pH? I think it does, but I'm not sure. As long as it has a low pH, you sure can use it in place of PC :yep:

Thanks Tiffers. FSP has a pH of 2.5. I have used it before with good results so I will use that since I have a lot left. I will purchase PC too just to try it out so I can see which one I like best.

-Which will you be using, PC or ACV?
I going to use PC and FSP

-How often will you be using PC/ACV?
Once a week

-How will you be using PC/ACV?

WOW ! I have Nexxus Ensure as well. And you're right it has 3.0 ph Balance.

If it does the same thing as the PC, I will consider using this as well or at least alternate between the two. I also have that French Perm Stabilzer and was wondering about it too?:yep:

Do you really think PC is that good!? Maybe I need to go my research or something because people rave about this and I ignore it because I'm trying to focus on me and my hair and not jump on any bandwagons.... but if everyone's doing it, and you are too (i love your hair) then I should perhaps take the plunge and alternate products.

Girl, you better go pick up some PC and Get In this Challenge. It is going to totally take your Hair to the Next Level. It is going to help your Hair be able to Retain Moisture and it will correct any issues you might have with Porosity.

So, yes, you need to read up on it and see if this is something that you might want to incorporate into your Regimen.

Trust, You will love what it does to your hair. I use it weekly after DC with Heat.

Come On ! Go pick you up a Bottle and get started.:grin:

Yes. I had been doing acv rinses for quite a bit before moving on to the bar and it was like I hadn't changed a thing. I was ready to quit the rinses bc that smell just gets up my nose. So this worked perfectly. Even with the rinses my hair felt a little coated so no different than the bar but as I said before the cold water shot at the end helps with that for me.
 
Tiffers.........girl you musta read my mind because after you recommended this to me last night on the Rollersetting challenge and I read some threads I'm like I gotta get me some of this here PC.

I will be picking some up today from Sally's and Imma look for some Fermodyl 619 as well. So COUNT ME IN!!!!!

1. ORS Olive Oil Replenishing Conditioner to my ends only during 30 min of cardio
2. Cowashed with Aussie Deeeep Moisture Conditioner
3. PC to entire head for 5 minutes then rinsed
4. Moisture, sealed with JBCO and placed in a loose hair clip to dry.

My hair feels great!

PC for 5/10minutes

I'll do this twice a week.
