?Question? - I'm about to prepoo with Honey for the first time...

[Je Ne Sais Quoi]

And I need you to please advise exactly how much to use and how I use it. I was thinking of adding the honey to my cheapie conditioner and letting it sit for like an hour. Does that sound right? How much honey do I add? Will it be difficult for me to rinse out the conditioner and honey?

Bre-Bre, I have used honey 2 times with great success in adding moisture to my hair.
I put about a tablespoon, maybe more in a container, mixed it with hot water to dissolve the honey, then added a moisturizing conditioner to it and mixed it up. I'm contemplating doing it a third time today. This will be a part of my regular routine from now on.

My hair was tangled, hard, and matted; I did not like it at all. But like I said, it may have been the brand- I just used the brand my mom had in the cabinet.

I have DC'd with honey before. I used a ORS pack, a tablespoon of honey, and about 2 tablespoons of EVOO. Heated it up in the microwave for about 30 secs. It is a good combo. From what I have read most folx use about a tablespoon of honey.

Yeah a tbls should do it When using honey a little goes a long way and you don't really need to over do it to get amazing results. Let us know how it goes!

I use two squirts ... I think thats about a tablespoon ...Then I use double that amount in oil ( coconut or soy oil)

I believe I got this recipe from www.motowngirl.com - I heated 2 or 3 tbsps of honey in the microwave - long enough for it to be a runny consistency vs. thick. I then mixed it w/a quarter cup of olive oil. I worked it in my hair really well, put on a plastic cap & left it overnight. It would definitely give me nice sheen. I never had any issues w/washing it out. The only reason why I stopped doing it was b/c I started doing the Ayurvedic overnight pre-poos. HTH...
