I've used the Aphogee 2 step and that worked well you have to follow up with a good moisture DC. You can get the small packs for cheap or the 4oz for like $7.

I've also used the Mendex and that worked well as a moderate protein.

ITA with the others about protective styling, less heat and manipulation.
 
Morning Ladies.

About to go wash out that moisture prepoo. It was a lil messier than I would have liked. I'm going to have to clean the oil off the floor and sink. I used the last of my ceramide HOT oil as my oil of choice and Vatika oil as my coconut oil.

Will poo with my diluted black african soap, then use the Aphogee 2 step. Still need to figure out what I'll DC with.

Vonnie are you using a spray bottle? I don't mean those cutesy ones that come in different colors but those little travel ones where you press down on the top. I put the aloe vera juice and oil in one and keep it refridgerated. Then I take it out like the night before or the day of because the oil is all hard and separated from the juice. Sitting it out always it to soften and you can shake it up and mix the two again. Then I use vatika frosting to coat. I find this less messy, if at all. I know you have more hair than me but hopefully this helps.

I thought about doing it this way but wasn't sure if I'd get the same results since it was my first time. I need to go buy a second spray bottle to make up a batch in and not have to worry about it.

I loved the results!!! my hair was soooooo soft and had a nice shine too it. Definitely will be doing this weekly or so. I did sit under the heat cap with it for like an hour.
 
Thanks ladies I just called her with your suggestions. I will also gift her a bottle of AO HSR conditioner as well as the GBP as that will help with moisture. Coincidentally another friend bought HSR conditioner but did not like it so gave me 3/4 of a bottle so it practically evens out in the end :yep:

I am going to try the spray bottle next time for my aloe vera pre-poo treatment as I just want my hair damp. I will add a little bit of the yangu oil again. I will then apply organic VCO and leave overnight and shampoo with black soap the following evening.

Do you think it is okay to do this before using henna?

Glad you were able to help your friend out.

@bolded- I did this today before Aphogee 2 step which is a hard protein treatment and haven't seen any problems so far. I still have DC in my hair but my hair feels wonderful.

The only minor snag I had was that my hair was still oily so it took more Aphogee then before but I got the same if not better results. I don't think I would have washed again and know I won't in the future. Good luck! Post your results..please!
 
Hey ladies, those of you that roller set what size rollers are you using? I know Charz, Mkd, and Vonnie have APL-MSL hair so the rollers are bigger. I ask because I was watching you tubes rollersetting and dominican blowout and although some of the client hair were shorter the gray roller seams to be the go to. I know my rollers are to small red/black and maybe I'm not getting enough strength to make it straight without flatironing is my goal.

I have the large burgundy/magenta ones. I just can't get them tight enough using the clips. When I do buy more I'm going to get either mesh or the snap ones in a large size. I think next fall winter I'm going to rollerset as my PS of choice.
 
I'm prepooing now with aogpb. Later I will wash and use aphogee 2 min for 2 mins and then dc overnight with aohsr. Do you guys use a plastic cap to pre poo?
 
@Ltown

I use the gray and purple ones. The bigger they are the more length your rollerset will show.

That what I thought because it was ok but frizzy.

Vonnie, years ago I knew how to use the wire mesh but now hot mess:lol: I want to do like Charz rollerset more but knowing that I will have to not work out for 2 days to get a good couple of days. I'm head sweater:nono:
I'm off to buy some bigger rollers.
 
Ltown I use bigger rollers in the magnetic style but I can't get those tight enough for my roots to be straight so I have abandoned them and gone back to my mesh rollers. I get better results with mesh.
 
so i just smoothed my hair back with some AV pur whipped gelly and went about my day. i am so loving this bun. and it stays so moist for a few days. after i used the milkshake i topped it off with jojoba hemp balm and then sunshine. so that moisture is really sealed in there lol.
 
I finished a Mozeke Advocado Cleansing Cream. I have one back up. My hair loves this stuff. It may just be the avocado because I remember my hair liking Bee Mine's Avocado Conditioner too.
 
Evening Hair-Divas!:grin:

Just got finished doing my HTN regi. Got things tied up for the night.

Hmp.:rolleyes:

I forgot the P.O. was closed today because of the holiday.:sad:
 
Just yesterday, I thought of you and thought that it had been a while since you visited :yep:

OT: That deoderant was too strong almost burned a hole in my armpit :look: I have just made a milder version and instead of 100% bicarbonate of soda, I reduced it to about 60% and added 40% cornstarch. I added organic VCO, shea butter and black seed oil (I have so much of this oil to use up) Love the consistency and will test it out tomorrow
 
So I still haven't finished my wash day. I'll twist it up soon. Just not in the mood.

My mom text me and said she had mad a pot of gumbo so I had to go over there and get some. I've had the Itis since which isn't help motivate me.

I stopped by Sally's and got another TT (only had 2 in black), a spray bottle 16oz, and a travel size container for my next trip. I had 15% off, a sally's card, plus a $1 off the bottle, and the travel bottle was on sale. Not bad I thought.
 
I only finished up the CG Babassu DC today. Probably won't finish up anything for a few weeks.

I used the MHC Olive you to DC. I like it tho its thin/watery. Going to compare it to Komaza Olive DC. Their ingredients are very similar...the prices not so much.
 
@Vonnieluvs08

I've been in the 'mood' to buy a little something myself. :ohwell:

Hmp. Don't need another TT.:perplexed

Oh Wait.....I did buy that Bone Comb Saturday.

I looked 'briefly' at Cathy Howse UBH Products....has anybody tried????:look:
 
Hey Robot, where you been busy with school?

I just finish doing my hair prepoo with aloevera/wgo, poo with healthy plus it made my hair soft, dc with wdt. Use MHC aloevera leave done with that, seal with ceramides oil mix and bun. I got to lazy to rollerset.
 
We got some snow this morning but it wasn't too much. Maybe 4 inches. But the roads were very slippery. I was sliding all over.

I think when I get home, I'll cowash with some MoistPRO, do a quick 10 minutes with BFH and sit under the dryer for an hour. Then knock out. I might see if I can toss in a quick HV pH rinse in there somewhere.
