Spring/Summer Cowash Challenge 2010

Just co-washed with TRESemme Moisture Rich. My hair isn't feeling anything right now. This condish used to be a staple but now it's not. I'm gonna put it away and try some of my other conditioners. I was trying to use one at a time but I'm gonna keep trying stuff in my stash until I find something that works......so sad!

IT IS 11:15 AM ON SATURDAY, MARCH 20, 2010--THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING! I WILL NOT BE ADDING ANYONE ELSE TO THIS LIST. I THINK I FORGOT 1-2 NAMES SO I AM GOING BACK TO THE ORIGINAL THREAD SO I CAN ENSURE THAT EVERYONE WHO JOINED IS ON HERE.




ADD mEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

I will be cowashing with Aussie Moist 2-3 times a week

Adding Kinky curly or eco styler in my hair

baggying ends at night (combing only in the shower)

I'm excited:grin:
 
I've been cowashing away! :)

I've cowashed daily since my BC (April 5, 2010). I have it down to a science now and I love my staple products. It's cut down on my PJism! And I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE VS So Sexy Nourish Condish as my leave in!
 
Cowashed Sun with Honey Hemp Conditioner and Mon & today with Jasmine's Shea Butter Rinse.

I will not be doing my usual daily cowashes for a while. I just got some extension braids and don't them looking all frizzed out too soon but I will update whenever I do.
 
Cowashed yesterday with Avocado Condish. Don't know what I'm going to use today. Going to use some Castile Soap to cleanse first.
 
I know I keep coming in here and saying that I'm happy with the progress that my hair is making but I always feel like my hair shoots out of my head when I'm cowashing (and exercising) daily. I hope to keep this up until at least November and want to be pretty close to BSL by then. I have about 3.5 inches to go.
 
Will co-wash on Friday with Nutrine Garlic Conditioner *apres relaxer* Will use this as a co-washer up until about 4 weeks post.:yep:
 
I cowashed this morning with the last of my WEN Lavender Cleansing Conditioner. My scalp feels really clean right now.
 
Cowashed with TJ's Nourish Spa. I've noticed this lays my hair down pretty well to the point where I don't really need to use a scarf.
 
i haven't been on here in a lil bit, but have been doing my program regularly just the same.

i have to admit, co washing also helps me to feel like protective styling, which is a good thing because if i had to think of not only co washing but also getting my hair cute all these times during the week, i might go batty, bald, or both!

instead, going from the co wash, then directly into protective styling (i baggy bun) makes sense and makes it easy to stay away from the heat styling too.

besides, the humity would only ruin whatever i burned with the heat, anyway, so it's all good!

i'm so grateful to you ladies for showing me all these great techiniques and for showing me how to have hair like i've never had before!

many blessings to you all!
 
I've realized despite my pj ways I've done a great job picking my staples :yep:. My hair loves all of my cowash condishes. Hopefully that will remain the same once I bc.
 
I cowashed yesterday morning with tresemme moisture rich. It performed a bit better than last time but it still wasn't as great as it used to be. Unfortunately, I have about 5/6 of the bottle left so it'll be a long time before I finish it up and move on to the next product.
 
i just realized that i've never posted a pic on here, lol!
i know how much that helped me when i first came aboard lhcf, so i'm gonna work at remembering to do that for others, too (i'm subscribed to so many threads, i forget...)
i'd see those pictures of before and after and just hope it could be like that for me, too, although i was always convinced that we in our family had "bad hair", so i really didn't believe my hair could grow.
instead, you ladies are proving the elders in my family wrong, because with the practices here (and i cannot vouch for co washing enough as it has revolutionized the overall condition, helath and vitality of my hair, not to mention its length), i am amazed at how much and in how many ways my hair is constantly changing for the better!
thanks ladies!

everything under the line is thanks to this site in general and co washing in particular!
 
I co-washed w/ patene nature fusion mixed w/ elasta qp intense conditioner & I like this combination. This the second time I did this & it left my hair soft & moisturized.
 
Cowashed this morning with DB's Pumpkin Conditioner. My first official wash n go as a natural is a hit :grin: with me & everyone else.
 
I have been cowashing about everyday with tressemme flawless curls but the other day I prepoo'd with a bottle of infusium 23 condish I found under my sink and then cowashed with TFC and it was AMAZING! I don't know why it got regulated to the land of stuff I dislike (under my sink) Now I may have to find it again and buy more.
