UUGGH! MY hair was so dull and lifeless-goodbye CG method!

[DDTexlaxed]

I decided to go off the CG method. I shampooed w. Pantene's R&N. I brushed this thru the curls and let it sit 5 minutes. Whike it sat, I doctored up my ORS conditioner. Honey, MSM powder, and the mango and lime island oil. the oil did nothing for my hair, but it kawoweed my conditioner! I just added the conditioner in shingled form and let it stay in my hair. My curls look so nice and revived, I almost don't want to rinse it out. I even had the nerve to put the mango and lime leave in too. I'll rinse it out this time because I shingled alot of conditioner in, but has anyone used a conditioner like the ORS one used it as a leave in? I wish I had a camera to show u how good it looks now as to how it looked before. Your advice is always welcomed and appreciated!:notworthy

Which conditioners were you using?

The ORS mayo. Sorry if I forgot to add that. I decided that i won't be washing this out. I'll rinse my hair in the AM and and a lil of the mix. it looks so moisturized.

Ah... that might've been the problem. I think for this routine you're supposed to use lighter, silicone-free conditioners. If you were using ORS...that might've been too heavy. If you ever decided to try again. Maybe go with the lighter conditioners...like VO5, Suave or White rain. I was thinking about trying this method now that the weather is getting warmer. I'm sorry CG didn't work out for you...but I'm glad you're happy with your hair now!

I agree with ThursdayGirl, if you use something heavy your hair will just feel coated, heavy, and generally unpleasant....

Sorry I confused you. I was using the Suave and V05 conditioners before and my hair looked dull and dry. When I doctored up the ORS conditioner it looked soo moisturized. I don't know what's going on w my hair. I think I have scab hair too, so that may also be part of the problem.
