You're right. People use regular conditioners as leave ins all the time.
Last week I steamed with QB's MTCG and it absorbed so well into my hair I didn't want to rinse. I think I will try it.

like what's the benefit of washing out the DC and just going to add a leave in conditioner anyway?

I think I'm done growing my hair and protective styling. My hair is too long. I can't imagine it being longer than SL shrunken. I am tempted to chop some of it off. When I get my hair dyed in June I am getting a 2-3 inch trim.

I'm wearing my hair out everyday.

Charz, and curlyhersheygirl, imo some dc don't have the same ingredient that leave in do. I always use leave in that have detangling ingredients so that why I use them. But you both are right.
 
Ltown I detangle with a bulk conditioner before I DC, so when I have the DC in my hair it's already detangled. I think imma just DC with Qhemet's AOHC and just leave it in my hair.

Thought about it a minute but will wait until they reformulate the hair fortifying masque.
 
So last night when I logged off of here i was exhausted and thought I would take a 20 minute nap before rinsing out the KBB condish. Well I didn't wake up until 5:45 am lol. I rinsed the condish out and my hair dried very quickly, so I figured out thats what made my hair dry, not the EVOO. The KBB has silk protein so that could be it. My hair likes the SM Smoothie and it has silk protein so idk why the silk in the KBB bothered me. I had to baggy about 20 mins with OHHB, then I applied kbb milk and MHC grease to seal and slicked my hair into a hair zing. Sooo disappointed about the KBB condish. Tonight is wash night so I will be letting yall know what I end up doing. My hair appt is in the morning and i will post pics to show yall when its done!
 
Y'all be careful with your online charges. I was a victim to fraudulant credit card purchases. Bank of America is investigating the charges.

My tummy hurts...stress.
 
I cowashed with Suave WCB, Used the Shea Moisture milk as a leave in and used the smoothie over it. Yanno, just to try it out. I love the smell.:lick:

@IDareT'sHair If you managed that T, it would be amazing.
@Charz you could increase your stake (you could throw in a 55 inch TV for T if she succeeded don't worry I think you are safe) :look:



@chebaby - what is about neem extract that you do not like. Can you smell the neem. I have some neem oil and it stinks :nono: I literally had it for over a year before I dared to use it. I treat it as if it was an essential oil and literally just add a few drop to 500ml of body oil. Someone posted on NP the other day that it smelt like a pig farm :lachen:
Click to expand...
no, its nothing "wrong" with the oil or extract. its just one of those things for some reason i dont really like. i have a few products with neem in it but i dont use them often. when it comes to oils and herbs im very particular.
im not that fond of peppermint oil either but i would use it over neem.
 
hey ladies
today i purchased:
mhc hair grease (thanx beautyaddict, that stuff smells good and i love the texture)
darcys deep conditioner
curl hair towel(now i can throw away my old one. i think 2 comes in this pack but not sure)
heat cap
cj curl fix hair treatment(im going to use this to co wash tomorrow and as a leave in on my wash and go)

i hope the curl fix works great as a leave in because i really want to wear a wash and go tomorrow.

sunday when i do my braid out with the dew and dcc im going to seal my ends with mhc grease. i love the texture. it melts instantly and i can tell its gonna give great shine.
 
oh and if i end up loving mhc grease im gonna start using that instead of bsp because bsp is $4 more and they are the same size.

Good Morning,

I'm good on the no buy for hair products, I got some JOICO at TJ max, and Elasta foam wrap yesterday. I still have my HV coming but that was already paid for:look:

I will be selling my Karhisma henna and indigo so whomever not on a no buy it will go on the exchange.

@mkd, I used the Donna Marie curly creme and it works fine this morning but my hair wasn't completely dry so it end up frizzy but that technique not the creme. See yall I'm learning,:grin: I didn't diffuse it dry.

I'm sure I can use anything now that I have a technique down(diffuser) my braidout worked with qhem and CD so I may revisit some others that I have in my stash like shea moisture since it local and the ingredient are good for me.

im glad you are learning your hair:yep:

i wanna do this no buy with yall:look: i know i said aint no way i would even try but i really want to now. plus, theres nothing else i want so if now isnt the best time i dont know when will be:lachen:
 
I wonder how long a jar of QB CTDG would last me to detangle with? Hmmm.

I would love to just use one line of productsssss

when i was doing braids every week for about a month i would use what seemed like a ton of CTDG to detangle when taking the braids down. after that month it was like i didnt even put a dent in the jar so i think itll last a long time.
then again that was a year ago so my hair was much shorter.
 
Hello Lovelies ......:wave:

I'm under the dryer with Paul Brown Hawaii Resurrect Reconstructor w/Lipids & Kukui Nut Oil. I forgot how much I loved this reconstructor.:blush:

Will finish it up, but won't repurchase.:yep:

I just Co-Cleansed with BFH. Used up 1 Yarrow and Started on Cotton Marshmallow.:lick:

Will do a Protein Rx w/HTN and Steam with HV Sitrinillah. I could possibly use up the HTN and the Sitrinillah (we'll see...they're close).

Will dry, Moisturize & Seal with Hydratherma Naturals.:yep:
