Any other day and that FedEx guy would have been here before I got out of the shower, but no, on the day I'm waiting on my steamer, he doesn't show before I have to go to work.

Under the steamer as I type. Going for about 35 mins with AE energizing, castor oil, panthenol and a cheaper conditioner to bulk the mixture out.

My NG is making my weekly wash very tiring, even with the help of the steamer

I'm steaming with creme of nature argan oil intensive conditioning treatment.

Steaming right now with Hairveda's Sitrinillah a few drops of peppermint and rosemary oil. Heavenly.

Overdue for a steaming. Been trying to get one in but it's always something. Steaming in the morning with homemade DC. No exceptions!

I am so happy to have another steamer! This pro model is divine.

I'm back in the challenge, steaming in AO HSR. I'm going to add JBCO to my hair line and ends to increase the steaming loveliness.

Getting a steamer for my birthday!! Definitely in for phase II of the challenge.

1. How often you will steam? I will try to steam once a week
2. What method are you using to steam? A steamer, not sure if it'll be lcl or huetiful, it's a surprise!
3. What products will you steam with? I want to use up my stash but I'm afraid they won't give me the full effect of steaming so I am not sure yet. Maybe AO, I here great things about it and I can get it from a store around here.

I have a few questions for you ladies though

1. Is it okay to steam with my hair in minibraids or should I take them out? (I was thinking I may take them out, steam really well and reinstall them)

2. Does anyone ever "steam in" their leave in conditioner to help it penetrate better?

I'm really hoping this steamer will be the turning point to my super dry and fine 4b strands and help me with some retention, moisture, and split ends

**minibraids are on my natural hair btw

Steamed for 30 minutes after misting hair with Aloe Vera Juice + EVOO.

Steamed today with BASK Yam Nectar. I think this is the best conditioner I have used so far.

 

[Oceanfox]

Steamed just now with Joico MR balm, castor oil and panthenol for about 40 mins

 

[CurliDiva]

Ok, my steamer is leaking water!

I going to buy some duct tape and seal that sucker up lol

 

[Rozlewis]

Steaming right now with Hairveda's Sitrinillah on one side and Bee Mine Bee-U-TI-Ful on the other side. Trying to use up my stash. I have heard such good things about Bee Mine and had not tried it even though it was in my stash. I have high expectations for this DC.

The steamer I got for my birthday just got here today! I am so joining this challenge!

I will be steaming at least 1x per week.
I will be using my LCL steamer.
I'll be steaming with whatever DC's I have on hand. I went on a "natural hair shopping spree" for my birthday. Right now I have Naturelle Grow's Mango Coconut Water, Orange Hibiscus, & Slippery Elm. I also have B.A.S.K YAM Nectar & Vanilla Whiskey Repair Mask.

My old stand-by will be Giovanni SAS mixed with oil.

I'm really hoping to undo some of the damage done by pregnancy hormones & general neglect.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Steaming today with: Ori Organics Restorative Treatment Masque *discontinued*

 

[Rozlewis]

Steaming right now for 30 mins. with Mizani Fulfyl, Peppermint, and Rosemary Oil.

Happy steaming!!

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

Steamed for 1hr with DB's pumpkin conditioner.

 

[Nichelle_jb]

I did a hot oil treatment (prepoo) with coconut oil under the steamer for 20 minutes. Later, I steamed for 30 minutes with the last of my It's Perfectly Natural Mustard Seed & Red Palm Oil deep conditioner. I really liked it. It's a shame based upon her poor customer I won't be purchasing from her again.

Finally ordered my new steamer yesterday...

I absolutely LOVE reading about all the different conditioners and oils everyone is steaming with.

Question...is steaming still beneficial for normal porosity hair?
