sitting under my steamer now. it's been three (four?) weeks and it's just okay. it's been a few days and so far, my qhemet hasn't been amazing either. :( people have been raving about it, so i was sure it'd help my dry hair. my hair was super crunchy yesterday too, it hasn't been like that in a while.

ive noticed that i cant mix the heavy cream with other products or it will be crunch city. what leave in are you using under your moisturizer? i know some people use their moisturizer by itself but i have to use a leave in first.
 
got 5 minutes before i rinse this stuff out :look: hope it looks nice(the color) once i rinse. which doesnt matter since its going to be in twists anyway lol.
i know ive said this before but i am really going to try to keep my hair in twists until the warmer months.

thanks for this, che. the night before i used the balm under the heavy cream, bc that's what i read that someone else tried, so that could be why.

but other than that, i've just been using the heavy cream by itself. maybe i should layer it over my jasmine's leave-in? thanks for the tip - i will try tonight. do you let your leave-in sit for a few minutes before layering, or just do it right after?

Hiya :)

They do not have BF sales in the UK. To be honest, I do not need anything right now apart from Bentonite Clay. I have enough oils and conditioners to last me for a few months so I am good for now. I would love to find some good conditioner bases here in the UK to test out.

robot. the balm is a sealant, so you would wanna put that over a water based moisturizer. I would use the AOHC after washing and airdrying.

i don't airdry without a moisturizer - i'm scared. :lol: as soon as i rinse my hair, i moisturize then let it just dry that way. putting anything on my dry hair just gives me a huge frizz ball.

but i see what you mean now - balm as a sealant. i guess the HC isn't considered water-based, since it's the third ingredient?

so i need still need to find a good water-based moisturizer. drat. i wanted the aohc to be my end-all be-all. :lol:

thanks. i'm gonna try it tonight with the leave-in, then just work with it over the week.

i dont wait for the leave in to sink in. i just go right ahead and layer them.
i hope the jasmines leave in works well with it. the only leave in i can use with the heavy cream is the kbb milk.
 
ok so i rinsed the henna. i used up my vo5 passion fruit conditioner, MHC sofias thick and healthy conditioner and my darcys deep conditioner. that damn sofia conditioner made my hair so tangled urgggg so thats why i used the darcys. i wasnt going to repurchase the darcys but i might have to because i like the way it detangles, softens, and leaves a little oil on my hair. im going to need that oil this winter.
sofia can get gone lol. i dont think i will try any more MHC conditioners besides the ones i already have. and of those only the honey, olive you and horsetail will be a repurchase.

anyway i have my hair in a towel now drying a little before i apply my leave in.

when i first rinsed my hair looked a pretty wine color but we will see once its dry and in a few days. i am so in love with henna.
 
I'm taking out my braids and twists to wash my hair, they have been in for exactly 2 weeks. I will finish a bottle of VO5 conditioner tonight.

WOW! Good to know about the Sophia's Thick DC'er:perplexed

Yeah it will take 2-3 days before you end up with your Final Henna Stain.:yep:
 
ok i just got finished dividing my hair into 4 sections. i used giovanni drect which i forgot how thick this stuff was. then i added coconut confidence. i am about to twist now with pur whipped gelly. my hair is already so shiny and soft.
i dont remember if the local store sells darcys deep conditioner but it will be a repurchase.

This is the one in the Jar Correct? And Not the Pumpkin Seed? I can't wait until you repurchase so you can let me know if it still has/had Chunks....:nono:
 
yes its the one in the jar. lol @chunks. the chunks dissipated in my hands so i never worried about them.
 
I am running low on oils, so this week I will pick up some EVOO and EVCO.

How exactly do I do a HOT? What are the benefits of it? As you can see I am a lax natural and I don't want to burn myself.
 
Hey, ladies. I'm here at work, of course. I wish I was home doing my hair. I don't think I'll make it until Wednesday. I'll try though. I am dying to do a wash.

Some people heat their's up in the Microwave, (not too hot) but when I was doing it I put it on, on dry (unwashed) hair and put on a plastic cap and my Heat Cap for about 30-45 minutes and then Co-washed or 'Poo'ed out. I got this method from both Americka and Shay72.

As redecouvert said, it eliminates tangles, dry hair, adds shine & manageability etc.....she was referring to an Oil Rinse, but I got the same benefits with the HOT.

i think you warm the oil in a bowel filled with water and then apply to dry hair. you can then add a plastic cap and wrap in a warm towel. make sure the oil isnt too hot and keep in mind ive never done a HOT lol.
