i do it once a week. now, it's working fine. i used to dc about twice a week because of my high porosity hair that just didnt hold onto moisture and would just be dry 2 seconds after dc'ing or moisturizing...now that i have a pretty good hold on knowing what works for me as far as keeping moisture goes, i don't feel like i need to do it as often.

Can we define deep conditioning before I answer?
Does that mean using a product labled as "deep conditioner," or does it mean letting your product sit for some certain amount of time maybe with heat or steam and then rinsing? Maybe it means a combination of the two.

Once weekly. After my mthly protein tx twice for that week then back to once weekly. I also found products that helps keep moisture in...this has been my struggle but now my hair is in a happy place!

Once or twice a week. More often, it's once a week. But I love experimenting with products and doing treatments, so if I try something that makes my hair angry, I deep condition right afterwards to apologize.
Also, heat styling, protein, or henna treatments get deep conditioning right before and afterwards.

Once a week or every time I use shampoo. If I cowash then it's more like every 2 or 3 weeks. I get lazy OK?

I was going to ask the same thing kinda.
I lazy DC every wash day (Sunday). I apply my conditioner, put on a plastic cap, a Bonnet and a scarf and let my body heat warm up my hair for about 30 minutes. It works I swear lol. I loathe sitting under a dry.
I guess there's also the thought of "what qualifies as a deep conditioner?" because I use all my conditioners like this whether it says deep conditioner on the label or not.

Ogoma krissyhair I would label deep conditioning as a conditioner labeled as such or an intense mask, where you would use heat or steam for at least 15 minutes.

I guess you could any conditioner just as long as your using some form of heat or leaving it overnight.

I only do this once a week. From start to finish it probably takes me like 2-3 hours. How do you guys find time to DC so often

Ugh I'm so bad at keeping up with deep conditioning, so I'd probably say once a month. I'm cowashing now so I don't lose a lot of moisture.

Whenever I feel like it, which usually means almost never.
