I have already started CW once a week, since its still cool outside. I usually CW with AO White Camilla Ultra Smoothing Conditioner. I spray my hair throughout the week with Mane N' Tail Detangler and use a little Trader Joe's Nourish Spa and seal with Oyin Burnt Sugar Pomade My hair stays moist and lovely. I braid my hair in two braids every night and sleep with a satin scarf. I only comb my hair when I CW...throughout the week I use my fingers to smooth my hair. Comes out so nice.

Also, I've been only bunning my hair.

I want to try this. What is a good natural conditioner to co-wash with?

Love Aubrey Organics conditioners and especially Trader Joe's Nourish Spa

I'm in. I cowash several times a week anyway because I work out 5 days a week.

It can be quite addicting . I'm loving seeing these newly bc'd ladies in here .

I am becoming addicted to co-washing LOL. Now I get anxious if I go a day without it. And cowash twice the following day.

 

[LadyRaider]

I want to give it a try! Afraid I won't be able to keep my hair neat for work, though!

 

[B_Phlyy]

I'm in. I will probably be co washing at night since I can turn up the heat in my house when I get out the shower (because walking outside with wet her in mid-March Chicago weather is not the business). I will probably switch to morning washing when it gets warmer.

I'm currently deployed, and I love co-washing!!! I only co-wash once a week. Is co- washing more frequently better? Healthier? Makes your hair grow faster? It's real dry out here, so if co-washing more than once a week is better, please let me know girlfriends!!!!

 

[equestrian]

Ever since I've been co-washing I haven't been able to track down one split end.

BUMP

 

[motherpopcorn562]

Did my first co-wash this morn. I used Trader Joes Tee Tree Tingle and finally got my hair to lay down for a bun . I will be cowashing 2x a week.

[OhSoOthentik]

I'm in!!! I co wash 4-7x a week anyway. I use V05 for co washes and I DC once per week.

You can lay down you edges by using a scarf for 15 or so minutes.

My hair thrives from cowashing. My hair feels soft, moisturized, and is shiny. The more I do it the better.

 

[joy2day]

Hi Shay, I'm in too... been co-washing once a week lately... this is a relatively new concept for me, but it seems that my hair really likes it! I'm using VO5 or Suave during the warmer months.

 

[Prinncipality]

I'm in! Sign me up. Last week I began cowashing for the first time since summer ended and I can feel the addiction creeping back. This is just what I need. LOL.

I'm in!!!!

I first discovered that the wonders of cowashing were not just some sort of myth when we travelled to Africa in December. It was soooo hot, so I cowashed my baby's hair every other day with Aubery Organics HSR- she has a LOT of hair!!!!!When we got back her hair felt sooooo good. Then I stopped because it was winter here and immediately felt less nice. I was shocked. She has hair in the 2s and 3s. For my 4a hair, co washing does wonders too, although I have only ever tried 2x a week, since my hair is so short after my BC that I've been mostly in protective styles. I just discovered the wonders of Herbal Essences Hello Hydration

 

[morehairplease]

Thanks for this challenge Shay72! Definately count me in!

 

[Platinum]

I'm ready for this challenge! I cowash almost everyday in the Spring and Summer. Now that I'm almost 11 months post and in the APL, I think cowashing will really help with my growth and retention.

 

[Black Hoya Chick]

i'm in. summer/spring i get cowash fever! lol. by the time the summer hits I have been known to cowash daily. i am currently using garnier triple nutrition conditioner. so far my hair loves it. its thick and thin enough at the same time.

i don't know if its necessary but here is my starting length (taken yesterday):

spring is almost here!!!!
