Delightfully Delicious DC Challenge 2011 (Part 4)

I've been sucking at this challenge. I missed last week DCing because I've been having multiple fall weddings happening, so when I get home (usually after 2 AM) I just pass out...lol I barely wrap my scarf on my head. I'm back on the DC grind this weekend though.
 
Hello Ladies,
Preconditioned with Shea Moisture Restorative conditioner, shampooed twice once with Aphogee for damaged hair and once with Keracare Humecto then deep conditioned with ORS replenishing pack 30 minutes without heat 15 minutes with hooded dryer . After rinisng DC followed lightly with Roots of Nature Strengthening Oil Moisturizer on ends and scalp. Leave in Conditioner Shea Moisture Thickening Hair Milk and Roller set with Lottabody Olive Oil Setting Lotion. I am new to this so if you have suggestions let me know. After seeing this it seems like it was too much.. What you think?

Washed with Moisturizing poo, conditon with Joico Intense Hydration for 3 mins, then followed up with Kenra MC for 5 mins while in the shower. my hair is so soft and moisturized, even after blowdrying.
 
I'll be dc'ing overnight with Marie Dean's Olive & Wheat Berry Intense Protein Deep Conditioner :lick: :grin:
 
Thanks for adding me to this one, halee_J.

I've been DCing consistently every week (even though technological difficulties sometimes keep me from posting here). I have low porosity hair that thrives with DCs.

I DCed on Sunday after a wash. Cowashed today and am finishing my DC (TJ's Nourish and AO WC) part: 30 minutes under the dryer now before going to bed. I'm going to rinse it out in the morning and wet bun.

Hey Brownsilk8, the only thing that I think may have been a bit much would be the shampoo, Aphogee shampoos are pretty harsh in my opinion, unless you have buildup, and even then you'd use that once every few weeks. For weekly use, I think the humecto shampoo is much more gentle :yep:
 
Not DCing today. I am very happy but also feel very foolish. Here's the deal:
I bought a sample of Nexxus Humectress after reading great reviews about it. And I was so stingy with it that after I finished the bottle I scratched it off my list, thinking it didn't work for me. This past weekend I was craving a moisturizing DCer, so I went to target and saw the Therappe/Humectress for B1G1 free. That prompted me to give it another shot. So I bought the set, which was on clearance. And got a small sample size. I mixed it with my new lover DPR 11 and some other goodies. And this time I wasn't stingy. Mannnnnnnn...what was the old me thinking?!?!?! My hair feels great!!! I feel like I can go a week on this softness. My braidout was a mess, but the hair wasn't tangled at the ends and it doesn't sound crunchy. I can reach my scalp through all this new growth! I wanna cry!!! I have found my staple conditioner and DC!!!!!

I tried it for the first time this morning so I could get my order together for Silk Dreams. I cowashed with it. I :love: it. My hair was very moisturized and my definition was amazing so I figured I would try it again tonight as an overnight dc.

Ok. I know I was just in here yesterday, buuut I'm back!

I DCed with a mix of different conditioners. I didn't mix them in a cup, but slapped them all on my head. Let's see... Aussie Moist, TJ's Nourish, Joico Moisture Recovery, and Joico K-Pak (I added it at the end for kicks). But WOW! My hair is super soft, and my curls are poppin. I really loved the Joico Conditioning Balm, but then I ran out. Now it looks like the K-Pak may be what my hair needed today.

I'm glad I'm in this challenge so that I can keep track of the hits and misses! :yep:

Now I'm almost done airdrying and will braid it up for the night!
 
im new to the lhcf and this is my first challenge. really need this one my hair started getting dry and i am not retaining length :nono: im gonna use coconut milk and/or avocado as a deep conditioner cuz it seems store bought gives me no results.
 
Yesterday, I used Aphogee 2 min reconstructor, a black tea rinse, and DC with AE garlic conditioner and Keracare Humecto for 30 minutes.
 
Delightfully Delicious Deep Conditioning Challenge 2011 (Pt.IV)



:thewave:





Last call!!! This is the final installment of a deep conditioning challenge running until Dec 31st 2011. Cooler temperatures are upon us, which means dry air and thirsty hair, so let's go into fall/winter well hydrated, fending off slipts and breakage. For more details on the benefits of DCing, and a comprehensive list of deep conditioners, see DDDC PART 1. You can also check out DDDC PART 2 and DDDC PART 3.





Challenge Rules :)

1. Deep condition at least once per week, on wet or dry hair. If you are wearing braids or weaves, once per 10-14 days is fine.

2. Shampooing is not required.

3. Deep condition using your method of choice: Heat cap, hooded dryer, steamer, hot towels or no heat.

4. You must DC for a minimum of 30 minutes.

5. Come check in at least once a week to update the team on how it's going for you. Also, it would be helpful if we know what you are using as your deep conditioners of choice. This helps to inform the newbies in that we'll know if they are using the correct conditioners for their hair in an effort to avoid protein/moisture overload.

6. Let us know what kind of results you are getting from a conditioner as well, whether you liked it or not and why.

FEEL FREE TO JOIN AT ANYTIME! COME ON IN AND LET'S DC!!

:grin::grin::grin::grin:

I will join! I will post my stats this weekend on my wash/DC day!
