@Lita @shawnyblazes
Wonder about Curls & Potions fermentation time? And also ST'icals?

I may ask. But I guess I should read about the product, it may be listed there.

ETA: Just heard back from Stunna. 3-5 days (on average). They said they got slammed with orders.

@Muse @IDareT'sHair on Stunna Etsy page she does have a Rice Water Milk serum that has been fermented for 4months..

Happy Hair Growing!

4 months?! Ok now they're putting the Yao women to shame with that one, lol! I was eye balling that deep conditioner but it's hard to fork over that kind of money when I know how dirt cheap it is to ferment my own and get great results. Still I cannot wait to hear your experience with 4 month fermentation. I don't think I could safely ferment it on my own for 4 months though let alone cover that smell. Seems like essential oils wouldn't be enough but the reviews for all of the rice water products look great.

As a former WWF/WWE fan I can appreciate this.

My dd cooked rice and decided to save the water for me. How sweet. I took a look at it this morning and it had kind of a film on the surface. I poured it out.

I’m laughing at myself because I used month old booty water but somehow this was a bridge too far!

Bless her heart though. I forgot I never showed her how I do it. So, I’m starting over today.

Ok this one really had me

Ohhh wait you are already using their leave in spray? I just assumed you were making your own when you shared how you used it. Is the rice water in the spray fermented for 4 months too?

 

[Everything Zen]

I just made a batch that had fermented a good 48 hours- alright there’s a smell...
Y’all are some punks

I would say 36 hours is the sweet spot for no smell.

@Muse I use my own DIY as well and I just let mine sit short amount of time....I don’t think the rice water leave in Hair milk is 4 months,just the serum..

Ok, I see.

Stunna sent my tracking. I’m interested to see how this goes for the next three weeks I’m in kinky twists.

Quick question: I've had my RW fermenting since Sunday morning in a cupboard. I just took a peek for the first time and there is some sediment in there. Is this to be expected?

I'm trying to figure out if I should just leave it in there until wash day on the weekend or if I should put it in the fridge until then...or if I should trash it because there shouldn't be any floating bits.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@snoop
What type of "sediment"? I usually rinse mine in Hot Water, pour out and then refill with Hot Water and allow to ferment.

When I remove the funky top on wash day, there is usually a foamy, cloudy/watery looking mixture which I pour.

I don't know what type of "sediment" - there could be? But I do rinse it first.

 

[snoop]

I rinsed my water twice with luke warm tap water, then filled with the same kind of water and let it soak for about 3 hours. Then strained out the rice and put the water in the jar.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@snoop
I've probably had 'similar' but didn't pay too much attention to that. You could always strain it.

Sounds like a plan! Thanks!

I’m looking forward to seeing everyone results.

@IDareT'sHair Do you let yours ferment with the rice still in it?

Oh heyyy I'm all late.But I did a 2 month rice water challenge on my blog. I only used rice water once a week and received a about 2 inches of growth.I did trim so this picture is not representative of my full length. View attachment 444311 I'm also curious to try rice water every day for a week so see if I can get the same benefits. I'm attaching the challenge down below if you want to see how I used the treatment.

I went to the big Chinese grocery store in my area, but had no luck finding the tea seed powder. The customer service lady had never heard of it before. I did see that they had dried flowers in their tea section, like rose buds, chrysanthemum, etc. It got me thinking about possibly boiling rose buds in the water after fermenting it...next time.

@NowIAmNappy I'm trying to find your video where you use the soap nuts and the rice water, but no luck. Please point me in the right direction.

Yeah that was the same thing that happened to me at the Asian market. The lady didn't know what it was and sent me down the aisle with all of the other teas. Of course it wasn't there.

Since you suggested soap nuts as a substitute I started looking into the ayurvedic cleansers. I ordered shikakai first since it's milder and if I need more I'll get some soap nuts (aritha). I have to play around with the amounts and make sure I can get my hair clean without stripping the life out of it. Once I get it down I plan on mixing it with the rice water.
