I don’t prepoo with heat.... HOWEVER I’ll prepoo someone else’s hair with heat if they’re low porosity.
I’ll prepoo to finger detangle in one step. Prior to June I was prepooing with aloe vera leaves & henna sooq cocoveda oil.
In June I prepoo’d with Belle Bar Cairo. Currently I’m in box braids for the next 2-3 weeks and I’ll be prepoo’ing with Cairo {+ Aloe & cocoveda if im in the mood}

Pre poo'd with coconut oil and honey tonight.
I rubbed the coconut on my dry hair first. Then added honey. I put a dollop in one hand, wet the other hand, rubbed together, and massaged through my hair. Put on a plastic cap, wrapped a towel on my head and let sit for an hour.
Loved it! My hair was so soft when I rinsed it out. Followed with a WEN cowash and airdrying now.

Have you ever something tried something like a light oil and vinegar... let it soak in to detangle...

When I’m organised I’ll pre poo overnight, I get very nice results doing this. Or sometimes I will pre poo in the morning and keep it in my hair all day while I’m at work. The hair isn’t dripping with oil, it just looks like I thoroughly moisturised.
Lately though I’ve just been pre pooing for a couple of hours, I still get good results.
I like to use Philip Kingsley Extreme Elasticizer or Mane Choice Halo. I will sometimes couple this up with an oil mix or Amla oil.

Recently I have been doing a scalp treatment with Heritage Rosewater Vinegar spray under a plastic cap for 30 minutes or overnight (if I have a nasty flare up of eczema).
When I go to blow out my hair I will also pre-poo with with Alikay Naturals Avocado Cream Moisture Repairing Mask.

I think you may be referencing the thread, "Do you need a moisture drenched pre-poo?" The link is below.

Reviewing that moisture drenched chicoro prepoo thread, mine is basically that. I'm sure I read that thread in the past and came to my current routine:
Divide into 8 sections, and twist removing shed hair. Dampen hair with tea mix (usually 1/2 AVJ + what ever tea/mix im brewing currently hibiscus/amla) . Then coat hair with olive oil, and sometimes use a scalp oil like NJoy's oil and get under a heating cap for a while. +/- If I'm feeling fancy I add conditioner and dc with heat or overnight. Same with scalp massage.
My last wash day I skipped the pre-poo step. It was a no go. Never again, I have to prepoo. I spent so much time detangling in the shower with my rinse out conditioner it felt like more manipulation and eventually hair lost.
