@Saludable84 Can you post your pic of Heavying Seal for @beautyaddict1913

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Just heavy sealed my hair for the night and by the looks of it, I may not have to again until another 3 days or so. I'll see though. I did use my MHC Sophia's Grease to seal with tonight and I have to say - I like it.
My hair is murst!

@Aggie

I couldn't help it. It's exactly how some of my people speak here in the Bahamas and it just cracks me up every time I hear it

 

[Aggie]

What does heavy sealing look like? I'm not familiar with that term? Is that root to ends?

It is very wet and creamy looking. @Saludable84 has a very nice pic of her heavy sealed hair. I hope she still has it and can post it up for us again.

@beautyaddict1913

It's heavy-Layering of Liquids, Butters, Cremes Oil like @Aggie said.

Sealing in and Locking down that Moisture.

I think there is a thread?

@beautyaddict1913 Heavy sealing = perfect pampering for your hair - especially if you're not wearing an 'out' style.

Last night, I did an overnight castor oil treatment after spritzing NW21. Today, I applied SSI Seyani Butter and NW21 on damp hair. I say I'm going to twist my hair tomorrow, but who knows.

I'm trying up upload two pictures but the forum won't let me be great. Anyway, the picture above was from the early spring when the weather was still changing and dry. I have to really heavy seal then. It is summer now, so I don't have to go too crazy and it's lighter, but I still use a leave in, cream, moisturizer, butter and grease (or gel if the occasion calls for it).

Since doing this, I still have to dust, but I get hardly any ssks doing heavy sealing. My ends in particular stay in good shape. I get paddy dreads from too much moisture, but it's not to bad if I keep my protein in check.

Thank you!! After you seal like this what do you do next? Do you take it down the next morning. Like how does it dry? Or do you wear a wig? Sorry I'm so questionative lol. I'm trying to get a new regimen going.

 

[beautyaddict1913]

I just oiled my scalp with strong roots pimento oil. I'm doing an HOT with HTN growth oil. I'm still believing in the power of ceramide oils lol. My hair is so soft and detangled right now and I ain't put nary comb to it yet. When I get done using up this oil I'm going to start on the Hairveda Avosoya.

My heavy sealing routine is 'lighter'- I'll use a leave-in cream, butter, and castor oil. I have to wear a wig or bun/updo if I heavy seal.

Thanks to @nysister for recommending the Olde Jamaica Black Castor pomade. I have been using it and I like the dye that is in it because it makes my hair look darker. I looked at the ingredients and saw that it has beeswax in it. I used beeswax years ago and man, that stuff attracts dirt like no other. My hair would begin to stink after 3 days or so. With this in mind, I will just be shampooing every night with a very gentle cleansing shampoo bar. I'm trying to get out of the twa phase so I will be using the pomade everyday and shampooing at night everyday until Spring.

I normally do that in a Saturday afternoon and wear my scarf covered again with a bonnet. Or a slap cap. Most of it absorbs and dries by Monday, and then I just bun.

If it's too much, just go lighter with your products, but I have a lot and thick hair, and this works especially well in the winter.

[Sharpened]

I had to do an emergency oil rinse with my Castor Mix this morning.

 

[NaturallyATLPCH]

Last night I used APB's Cupuacu Hair Lotion. Man I forgot how good this stuff is!

 

[Aggie]

Because I washed and DCed yesterday, last night it was on with the heavy sealing. I finally pulled out my MHC Sophia's Grease as my final step. It feels so good, I tell ya! I slept with a plastic cap, wig cap and satin cap on to prevent my pillow from getting greasy. This morning, I am wigging it for the rest of the week.

Thank you! I will be adding it to my winter reg! My hair suffers in winter

That stuff is excellent. I'm leaving mine back until winter.

[Beany]

I'm in a PS for the next 3 weeks so I will be using calendula oil (calendula petals infused in EVOO with some EOs) mixed with NW21 spray on my scalp/hair. Might throw in some yerba spray in there too.

@Beany
Is this your Homemade Blend? (Sounds Goodt)

@Beany

It is homemade. I have A HUGE bag of calendula petals. My goodness I had no idea that bag was gonna be that big when I ordered. I can send some to you if you'd like. That goes for anybody in this thread; I seriously I have more than I could ever use smh. The petals are from mountain rose herbs.

I'm using calendula because it is soothing and I don't want any problems with that NW21.

Here's a link: https://www.naturallycurly.com/curlreading/home/this-is-what-your-scalp-craves-dont-deprive-it/ You could also Google "calendula for scalp"


Ms. T you could also do rinses with the petals.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@Beany


Thank You so much Sis.

I have some.

I may try to 'produce' something similar. I've been using my Petals for Rinses.

Thanks for the Link.

ETA: I get it about NW21. I can only use it a short while, before I have to take a break.

I've been using the NW21 on and off since the spring and haven't had any issues, but I'm just overly cautious because of some of the experiences I read about (yours included).

 

[Saludable84]

Used MHC Buttery Soy and Sophia's Hair Grease.

@Beany
Yeah for some reason I can only use it for short periods of time.
After a while, it makes my scalp 'tender'
So, that's when I put it away and start using something else.
