I've been using a fenugreek oil for the last 6 months which I adore but does anyone use fenugreek seeds soaked in water as part of their wash day routine? So the past month I've been soaking the seeds overnight in water and then using that water as part of shampoo process. Last time I tried to blend the seeds but that was a no go when it came time to rinse. I'm wondering if anyone else is using fenugreek water in their regimen.

i was at my natural grocer/herb store today and saw they had fenugreek seed powder. maybe that might work better for you. i did see whole foods has fenugreek in their bulk section, but it was the seed.

Maybe I'll try that and just use the fenugreek seeds to make the oil. I'll keep you posted.

I did my first henna/indigo gloss today. My hair does feel stronger and softer. I am liking how my hair feels for sure. But the smell of that henna... Let’s just say, thank God for essential oils.

So for those doing rice water rinses, what benefits have you been seeing? Have you noticed accelerated growth?

 

[snoop]

I completed an onion juice rinse on Thursday. I haven't been keeping up with them the way that I should. I think rice water is the only thing that I have left to try. After that, I want to go back to keeping my routine super simple.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Today:
Horsetail Tea Rinse
Cantu ACV Rinse

*Made some Rice Water. Doubtful if I use it.

 

[sexypebbly]

Used green and fenugreek tea under my dc.

 

[Ltown]

used green tea aphoghee spray.

 

[NowIAmNappy]

Finally did a henna treatment overnight on Monday. I deep conditioned in the morning and detangled and my hair immediately stopped breaking. I knew I was due for my henna treatment. I wont wait that long next time.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Took my Tea out of the Freezer for Saturday.

It's either Horsetail or Rosemary (not sure which, but either will be great).

@snoop
Thank you for reminding me to get back on this!

I used it last week (after I read your post) and again today. I use it under my DC'er. I rinse with it and put my DC on top.

I like the way my Hair responds to it, although it stanks. I can't say accelerated growth or anything, because I'm using it under my DC'ers, but I can say, I like the way my hair responds to it.

Will continue to use it weekly throughout the summer. I bought a big bag of it for that purpose, so I might as well use it.

I also bought a Pre-Made DC'er from someone on ETSY, that I haven't tried yet.

 

[sexypebbly]

Used raw aloe on my scalp. Used liquid gold's amla and fenugreek dc.

Sounds

I kept it in for somewhere between 45 and 60 minutes, then followed up with a honey wash. Hair and scalp were so clean and nice. My hair wasn't stripped either.

@snoop
Is the Honey Wash something you created or is it Oyin's Honey Wash?
