Spinoff: Anyone use poo 2x or more per week?

[Esq.2B]

If so, what kind of poo?

 

[hottestdiva19]

I shampoo twice a week with CON (green and white bottle).

How many times do you lather?

Have you had any issues with it drying out your hair?

 

[hottestdiva19]

I lather twice. Three times if I need more slip or moisture.

 

[Cleve_gryl]

I poo twice a week. On Tuesday with Aveda DR, then on Saturday with Redken All Soft. I DC after every wash with the matching conditioners.

 

[healthynhappy]

I shampoo everyday with Herbal Essence's Long Term Relationship. My hair has never been this healthy!

I also blow dry with my tourmaline dryer on med heat after letting most of it air dry while I get dressed.

I also curl it just about everyday with either my Chi or Sedu. I use my Chi when I want a really straight style. But I use the Sedu on 200 because its very low heat and allows me to keep the fullness of my hair without the heat damage.

I am 14 weeks post and with shampooing everyday, my natural hair has never been this soft and manageable. I am shooting for 18 weeks now. I've never gone beyond 10 weeks before.

But the LTR and the Aussie Leave In spray has literally transformed my hair into total softness!

 

[moonglowdiva]

CON green label. 1 lather.

 

[Tiffchelle22]

I poo three times a week with HE LTR. I only lather once, and I try to make sure I concentrate on shampooing my scalp and not the hair. I follow with the HE LTR conditioner and leave-in. I usually prepoo with amla and coconut oil. I do not experience any problems with dryness. I tried cowashing, and it just didn't seem to work for me, so I use shampoo every time I wash.

 

[tasty0619]

i shampoo every 2-3 days, i use CON green label and i only lather once, and follow that with the DC of my choice

 

[Nola Darling]

If I wet my hair more than once per week I'll use only conditioner the other times. I just switched to a natural poo so maybe this will change.

 

[ravenmerlita]

I shampoo everyday or every other but I've been trying to reduce to 2-3 times per week. I alternate shampoos depending on how I'm going to do my hair after. But usually Grow Shampoo, Kerastase Bain Satin 3 or Kerastase Oleo-Relax.

 

[noemi]

I poo every 2-3 days with CON green or Elasta QP creme conditioning poo. I always follow with a DC, once a week with a protein next with a moisturizing conditioner.

 

[Mook's hair]

I voted no because I do not do this anymore but I wanted to share my past experience.

When I was in college I worked at a Mexican restaurant and came home each night smelling like greasy fajita onions. I washed & conditioned my relaxed hair after every shift because I couldn't walk around smelling like that.

I did experience rapid growth and healthy hair. I was using Cream of Nature Shampoo (red label) and Shenique silk reforming complex conditioner- which is now discontinued. I'm very sad that they no longer make that conditioner.

 

[Esq.2B]

Okay, this is good. I just started washing my hair every 3 to 4 days. I'm using CON green. So far, so good.

I also DC after each wash and I pre-poo before each wash. I was concerned that it might dry my hair out. Since it didn't cause any adversa affects I guess I'll continue to do this unless I see signs of otherwise.

Thanks ladies.


Oh and Mook, how often do you wash now? Why didn't you continue to wash everyday since your hair benefited from it?

 

[Caramela]

I shampoo about 3x a week (I lather twice). I shampoo with CON... that stuff!!

 

[Tee]

I shampoo about 3x a week (I lather twice). I shampoo with CON... that stuff!!

I use to shampoo 2x a week. Now, I only shampoo once a week.
*I co-wash 2 or 3 times during the week also.

 

[tiffers]

I shampoo twice a week with NTM and I always dc after. I lather twice because I pre poo with oil, so I wanna make sure I don't have any oily residue. I also only lather my scalp, and squeeze the shampoo lather down the length of my hair to prevent tangles

 

[tiffers]

OT- hottestdiva, you look fierce in your siggy pic! I love red hair too

 

[janeemat]

Yes, I poo 2x per wk. 1 lather. I use Aveda Color Conserve, Aveda Damage Remedy or Mizani Botanifying poo.

 

[LivingDoll]

I poo every 2-3 days with CON green or Elasta QP creme conditioning poo. I always follow with a DC, once a week with a protein next with a moisturizing conditioner.

I do the same thing but I DC with heat. Also, the strongest protein condish I can use is ORS Replenishing or Hair Mayo. I also use Roux Porosity Control for 30 seconds after rinsing the DC out.

ETA: I lather 1x unless I've been heavy handed with products.

I don't have a straight answer for that question.

I try to do some kind of clarifying every other week because I can see that many of my conditioners and moisturizers have some cones and and some even have mineral oil. But I'm not strict with that because I have 50 weeks of new growth and I am struggling with moisture balance and these days poos are too drying for the jungle atop my head.

I co wash multiple times throughout the week especially when I'm in cornrows (which lately is all the time)

I have a lot of products right now and I need to use up some of this stuff before I buy more stuff. But I"m looking to purchase a good DC that has no cones and no mineral oil.

 

[Cichelle]

I shampoo 2-3 times a week, about every third day. I use a shampoo bar. My other favorite shampoo is Aveda Sap Moss, though I hear they may be discontinuing it.

 

[LovelyLionessa]

I usually shampoo 2x a week. I use diluted shampoo and lather only once. CON and Organix are my staple brands.

 

[SkeeWeeTPie]

I shampoo everyday with Herbal Essence's Long Term Relationship. My hair has never been this healthy!

Me, too! Either HR LTR, or Sunsilk Hydra TLC. I wash, condition, and then use the respective leave-in conditioner and put it some sort of protective style. My hair loves it.

 

[IrisDaVirus]

I shampoo at least twice a week with the Aussie Moist shampoo. I follow up with the matching conditioner.

 

[Diva_Esq]

Usually twice a week when wet bunning with Motions Neutralizing 1x, and Yes To Carrots, HE HH or Garnier Fructis Length and Strength the other time. I also cowash daily when wet bunning.

During my dry regimen, only once a week.

 

[longhairlover]

I wash 2x or 3x's a week depending on buildup.

Never any dryness, I use in rotation Mizani's shampoos later 2x or 3x's follow up with the matching conditioner and rollerset.

 

[lovenharmony]

2x a week with Allafia enriching shampoo. It has no sulfates

 

[MarieB]

Twice a week with Organixx Coconut Milk, the rest of the time HairOne or co-wash with VO5 Moisture Milk or whatev condish I feel like testing.

 

[halee_J]

2x a week with ORS creamy aloe.
