The Cellophane and Clear Rinse Thread

I put my clear on dry hair then sat under my steamer for about 25 minutes. I then shampoo, and did a DC with a mix of different conditoners and squeezed some more of the clear into the mix and went back under the steamer.
Curls with rollers just pulled out.

Love it!! Do you notice that the color is richer? From the Brunette color? I have both the brown and clear and want to boost my dark color.

:lachen::lachen:I was like, "should i post this...because we will go crazy!" :lachen::lachen:I was lookign for these alter ego drops that makes your scalp feel soooooo minty and came across that. I was like, "hot dayum...why did I see this?" I am goin to wait a few though....it's $30. Lil pricey when I know what I can get with the CS. LOL!
 
Ooooo...looks LOVELY!!!!!

Question about the 3 hours - did you go under the dryer at all? Why 3 hours?

didn't go under the dryer. The instructions only call for leaving it in for a short time, but I was doing stuff around the house and just left it in.

Your hair looks great JLove. I am also interested in what you did after rinsing to get that look? Specific products and tools, be detailed. It looks like you have a fresh relaxer and I know your natural.

Thanks. After I rinsed I applied Giovanni leave-in, sealed with Amla Gold, put my hair in 3 big braids, let it air dry a bit, unbraided one at a time, added a bit of Sabino Moisture block, blowdryed. Continued and then flat-ironed. Used a small amount of Amla Gold again. That's it. I haven't applied any products to my hair since Monday. It's still shiny and swinging:yep:

Tools: T3 feather weight blowdryer and T3 medium duality flat-iron

i got the john frieda and jazzings. used JF last night and will use it up and if i dont see any more shine, i will try the jazzings. my hair smells really good. i have it in a ponytail and i dont see any bling but its just the 1st application.
 
Last night I mixed Sebastian Colourshines Brilliant Brown with Nexxus Humectress and the color didn't take like it did when I did the processes separately. I'm mad!

I just started using those drops this week. It's definitely will become a staple of mine. Another good scalp treatment is the cinnamon and rosemary oil...wow, it feels so good.
