My hair has always responed better to oils. For now I either use Organics Carrot Tea-Tree Oil or Wonder 8 in the spray bottle. But I would like to try a mixture of Peanut Oil & Olive Oil to see how it does, seeing peanut oil has been getting such rave reviews.
Hairlove---I use my oil formulation to oil my ends every night, then I cover the ends with a plastic bag. This helps to lock the moisturize in like crazy....

Okay, you got me.
How do you cover your ends only w/the plastic bag? Give me the full story.

Hey Sengschick::::I knew it sounded a bit strange....
At night before going to bed,,,I comb my hair neatly into a ponytail....I apply a light to a moderate amount of oil to my ends, the length of my ponytail, and the sides of my hair....I then insert the full length of my ponytail into a plastic conditioning cap and then wrap the cap in a circular motion around the length of the ponytail until I cannot wrap it anymore. Now the cap is clearly securing the full ponytail...I then secure the cap around the ponytail with two ponytail holders.....I then tie a large silk around the rest of my head and go to bed. When I take my hair out in the morning, it is so soft and moisturized...Unbelievable....I hope this makes sense to you.

Thanks Sherry!!! I've read it 3 times now.
I think I've got the concept, but I have one last question. Do you let the ponytail hang w/baggie attached or you wrap the length around the base, making more of a bun?
I see why this would work so well. Now I'm trying to figure out how to make this work in my life.....

[/ QUOTE ]i am thinking, sengschick, that you can oil your hair and sleep with a conditioning cap covering your whole head. I find the plastic cap helps the hair to capture moisture after it has been oiled......it's the same concept of the baggie method....My sister oils her hair, then covers her whole head with a plastic cap and then secures it with a silk scarf. It may sound like a lot, but her hair always looks fresh and moisturized in the a.m...........

This is interesting. I would like to try this for my ends. SherryLove, wouldn't wearing a plastic cap over the oiled relaxed hair result in it reverting from the trapped moisture? Especially with the bag over the whole head?
Do you re-oil all of your hair in the morning also or just before going to bed?

As I mentioned in another thread, my Keracare Essential Oils came today. I does smell heavenly (very light smell) and the oils are light. It also has Castor oil in it.

this could be true, but i was under the impression that sengschick's hair is in braids. My sis' hair is in braids....I just oil my hair before going to bed. It's never reverted in the a.m.....I did try it one time with the whole bag covering my hair while wearing a ponytail, and my hair did not revert....it was just mad moisturized.....I believe it also depends on your relaxer because my hair does not frizz or draw up with Phytorelaxer....
I just rollerset my hair and used a mixture of sweet almond, avocado, and jojoba oil and my hair came out so soft and shiny. I'm loving this combination!
