Remix 3: SSK-Free Wash and Go
Posted 08-06-2012 at 11:29 PM by DarkJoy
So the last week I've been working on Try 3. I think three might be the charm!
What wasnt working before: Leave-In Conditioner. This process has told me that my hair not only hates shampoos, but hates to have conditioner left in. Honestly, I had been having great progress with my hair without LI. I totally forgot about it, to be honest. Then reading and getting advice on LIs for the WNG styles led me back to it. And a regular problem I'd been having re-occurred--DRYNESS. I thought it was my hair, but it wasn't! I've tried Giovanni, SM, and various other brands since being natural and now I know. Leave the LIs out of my hair! The teas seem to work great as a LI. Nuff said!
Products after cowashing and condish:
That's it! No SSKs! And my hair is not greasy AND it doesn't get crunchy dry. The curls pop too.
By day 3 it needs a refresh so I either start over or put a little SM curl enhancing smoothie and spray with tea. That's it!
Woohoo!

- Home made coco butter/shea/mango/pumpkin butter
- Flax seed gel (lots of it)
