I'm DC'ing with Praital Silk Worm on dry hair without heat for a few hours. I've been DC'ing at least twice a week and my hair is loving it. I haven't been using heat but I've been Dc'ing for several hours. I hope I'm getting the same benefit.

lennet93, I would recommend alternating some of your DCs with heat for added benefit. They don't necessarily have be very long, about 30 minutes would be perfect with a little heat.

this is the first time i've used it as it is a new addition to the carols daughter collection. im going to wash it out now and i will tell you how it turns out. what i can say is that over a year ago before i found this site i used he smoothies before they were new and improved and i didnt like it. it was like shea butter so it was really hard to spread and back then i didnt have a hooded drier so that could have been it too.

 

[MzWill]

DC'd Monday (heat 30 min) & Saturday (no heat 2 hrs) with J/A/S/O/N sea kelp, honeyquat & castor oil. Can't wait til my shipment arrives this week so I can try AO HSR

 

[MzWill]

Week One: January 4-January 10: Hey everybody Im just checking in. Last week I deep conditon my hair on sunday and friday. I was supposed to do it on wednesday but I missed it due to personal issues but I still made it twice a week yey! I really like this challenge and my hair is thanking me for it. Already my hair has stop breaking so much so that is a huge plus. This evening I will be deep conditioning my hair with UBH conditioner for 30 minutes under the hood dryer.

Hi everyone. I dc'd twice this week. Once, I wrapped and let air dry and the second one I did on ednesday, I let roller set air dry. I wish I knew where my charger was for my camera I would show some pics. Anyways. I have the metalic rollers and Had them in from when I went to bed on Wednesday night/morning until I felt like taking them out on Friday since I was going to go out. Well I did not go out until today for church, so I had my head wrapped in a silk scarf and combed it a little this morning. ell when my mom came home from work, she asked if I had done a perm the other day, but I said, "No mommy, I just washed it and dc'." She really likes the results. Well my next dc is on Tuesday to prep for a job interview on Thursday.

I also have a question for anyone who can answer this. I am going for a perm/relaxer on Saturday with a dc, rinse, and trim (already deducted an inch from my starting point in pic b/c my hair dresser was on vacation). How long do you wait after a relaxer to do you next dc?

Hey ladies,

I'm checking in for the week. I deep conditioned this morning for an hour with ORS Replenishing conditioner while I cooked breakfast. My next conditioning treatment will be on Wednesday. I will be using this method I found on youtube. I pretty sure she is a member here because I remember viewing her flat iron method and earrings on her fotki. Plus this looks like a bunch of LHCF deep conditioning methods rolled up in one. I never thought about using an applicator brush to apply my conditioner. This would really help getting to that natural hair in the middle. I'm always worried that I'm not getting enough conditioner on that hair beacuse it's semms so thick. I thought I would share. See you guys next week. Good look and have a blessed week.

BTW: Sorry if someone posted this already. I haven't read through the whole thread.

Give it at least 3 or 4 days afterwards. Your hair will still be in it's neutralizing state during this time but you will be able to wash and DC after 3 days for sure to avoid your hair reverting.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are clarifying your hair after you deep condition it? If you are, this backward and all you're doing is removing the wonderful moisturizing benefits and effects of your DC treatment by clarifying it afterwards. I would clarify before the DC, okay?

 

[bluwatersoul]

DC yesterday with ORS replenishing, honey and coconut oil for two hours doing chores. rinsed and followed up with scalp rub of MT and bhingraj oil; put ends cream and cocasta on my hair and let air dry.

okay, thanks
I usually just try to clean the scalp with a little baking soda paste, not my hair
