Im dcing right now and i detangled with the aowc mix,:look: why does it smell so bad. The comb slid through my hair but it smells strong, like everytime i open the jar it smells stronger and stronger. Why couldn't aubrey make an unscented conditoner.:nono:

ITA! The first time I smelled the AOHSR it reminded of a lotion from the 70s. :look:

I'm looking forward to it too :yep:. I'm addicted to dcing. I think its the support and everyone working towards the same goal that makes it exciting.

I Think The High Point for Me is going to be Sticking with the Same DC until it is finished. :look:

I cannot wait to continue this practice throughout 2010. (Instead of my infamous switching DC's week to week).

Thanks to you, I have been doing this now anyway. But I think this was the "Tweak" I needed in my current Practices/Regimen.:yep:

Implementing this practice definitely has me "Intrigued":look:
 
thats something Im working on myself!

ok i just pre pood for 30 minutes with LUSH's retread conditioner. im about to rinse it out with black soap and then deep condition with this mix:
AO HSR, AO WC, AO RM, jbco, honey, evoo, jojoba oil, wheat germ oil and a vial of phyto huile d'ales.
i will report back witha review of the retread and condtioner mix. but right now i can say tht the retread is a very wet condtioner and it makes my hair look like i shingled. so far i love it.

i am pre pooing my moms hair with the phyto oil and tomorrow she is going to deep condtion with the rest of my mix.

Imma Do Better with this and Use Up some things instead of skipping all around.

Imma just stay focused on using 1 DC at a Time until it's gone. And then I can really evaluate it and see the long term effects it had on my hair.:yep:
 
I've never had a DC like the Sitrinillah. I don't know if it's because of the lactic acid, or because of how thick it is, but my curls are so loose. :perplexed I look like a 3B. They're pretty.
 
how do you use your sitrinillah? I used it last week and felt :ohwell: about it. I want to be WOW'ed but it. I want to do cartwheels like I do with VF!

this is my first "real" time using it. i applied it like a shingle. it's really easy to use a lot of this too.
 
robot did the sitrinilla leave white bits all over your hair? thats what it did to me.

im under my heat cap with the mix on my hair.

shingling is what naturals do to define curls. you take a small section of hair and smooth product over it. i apply my DC's this way to make sure i cover my roots.

I just did that tonight with that stankin aubrey's:look:. I did each section like that, detangled and then cliped up with duck clips.
 
So I bought mizani thermasmooth the other day. I used it today and my hair feels good. It smoothed out my 9 week new growth and my hair feel nice! This is a keeper. I am stretching for 3 more weeks so I will be able to use it till then.
 
I was getting bored so after I pre-pooed with VF for a few hrs, I washed my hair with Jasmine's shampoo and conditioned it with MHC conditioner. Now Im DC'ing with sitrinillah under the dryer.

ladies, this is my first time washing my hair myself in 3 years!!! I depended on salons to do my hair and it caused me sooo many setbacks and so much frustration...even a few tears on some occasions. I wont do that to myself ever again.

of course I'll post a pic after I use my maxiglide!
 
review time:

i loved the retread condtioner by lush. it will be a repurchase next year. i feel like it gave my hair more strength than moisture but i liked it.

my deep conditioning mix was amazing. but then again i dont think you can go wrong with adding oils and honey to a condtioner.

anita grant whipped butter. so far i do not like this butter. and im gonna go out and say its the cupuacu butter my hair doesnt like. remember a while back my hair hated a cupuacu condtioner. any way so far i dont see anything special about this stuff. it makes the hair shiny but i dont see too much moisture. i put my hair in six braids using this to make it easier to put my hair in smaller braids tomorrow. i will see how my hair feels then. what i will say about this product is that it makes my curls tiiigggghhhhtttt and defined. but thats an issue if youre tryna detangle.
 
I think i want to be a heat straightened natural:look:. I don't know, i don't want to kill the colochas but im thinking about it. I miss doing buns and ponytails. I can do a pony but its all shrunk up:lachen:. Something for me to think about next year.

I rinsed out my dc and braided my hair with tw mix and shea butter. I used jbco on my scalp and edges.
 
La, I'm in Upstate NY and its not snowing here yet, thank goodness! They are still calling for 5-8 inches but we'll see.

I didn't use anything this week, let alone USE UP. I was sick all week so I didn't get to do my Wednesday routine. I'll have to do it tomorrow, I guess. I'm gonna use my SSI Avocado conditioner again. I have been layin here with Cocasta all over my hair for the longest.

I really need to get that heat cap...
 
really? im in NYC and even though its snowing lightly, its adding up!!!!! they just plowed the streets and it looks like they didnt do a darn thing. Im happy that I did all of my errands today because Im not leaving this house until.....Tuesday!
