*~~MARCH 2012 HIT OR MISS~~*

Hit: Using Trader Joe's Tingle Treat Conditioner to co-wash.

It leaves my hair soft, detangled and clean! Plus, it's super cheap and can be found on the ground!

[InBloom]

[13StepsAhead]

So uh...how does that go? Very curious....

I just mix my DCer in a bowl with Agave nectar (I don't measure, just pour). I typically leave the DCer in overnight and My hair is very soft after I rinse. If you are worried about sticky buildup it has not happened to me.

Kind of like adding honey? I may give this a try. I've got some leftover Agave nectar that I wasn't sure what I'd do with.

Still building my regimen and experimenting. So far:

Hit: ORS replenishing for DC <~~ went to Walgreens and bought every bottle they had on the shelf
chi silk infusion for heat (which i do VERY minimally)
coconut and castor oil for sealing

MAJOR HIT: Ayurvedic cowashes 2-3 x week. This is the best thing ever! makes stretching a breeze!!! I had to experiment some, but finally hit on mixing 1 tsp each of amla, brahmi and bringhaj with HE LTR condish and grapeseed oil. Leave on for 1-3 hours and cowash out with HE LTR. OMG, hair so soft and no tangles at all. And moisture for days!!!!

tea rinses (my hair tangles horribly with these)

Heavy haeavy heavy HIT:

KERASTASE MASQUE SUBSTANTIF - WOW!

I only used literally the size of a quarter on my hiar today and it was wonderful as I was putting it on and as I washed it 10 minutes later. This is definitely a staple.

It says it's moisture for mature hair but I think mature can also be older hair on anyone, especailly the hair ends. I flat ironed it and my hair is manageable and very bouncy even though it's quite short. I love it.

Revisited hit:
Castor Oil- I used this while I was transitioning and my hair was doing great, then I found all these other oils and butters and never went back. Recently I went back and I'm wondering why I ever abandoned it because my hair has never been more soft and moisturized.
