[MilkChocolateOne]

My scalp was on fire had to do an emergency scalp detox with mud. I think it was the indigo....before I thought it would itch because maybe I was allergic, did some reading and used it again this weekend with better quality powder and at first it didn't itch. Today (sigh) it was on fire!!

So long story short the purpose of my post...my hair line was still agitated after the detox so I put a little jojoba oil on it and whew, it feels much better! I also oil rinsed heavily to combat the dryness from the indigo with my Bekura apple & sorghum that's been diluted with EVOO and Grapeseed oil.

I gotta figure this indigo thing out...off to the henna thread later today.

You might have to stop using indigo. I experienced severe itching and irritation from indigo. At first my reactions were mild and got increasingly worse with each use.

here are some links. Other people have had the same experience.

Thanks MilkChocolateOne I think you're right. I was just sitting here thinking I can't do this to myself again and it's not worth it.

Ms. Charm:

Yaaassss! You must pick up several jars of Black & Bossie.

It would be a shame to be so close and not snatch up a few.

Thank you both for your review(s) of the Sunny Isle Pomade. *most appreciated*

MileHighDiva Buttery Soy doesn't have much of a smell. It plays well with other scented products. It has a similar consistency to SD Mocha Silk I feel...soft, just a little more gooey though. I haven't tried the others. Was never interested.

Please remind me my dear friends to never, never, never wear a puff without properly moisturizing and sealing in nyc 18 degree weather. HOLY BREAKAGE!!!!
I should have know that I can spray this on my hair and go out with my hair unprotected.
I have never seen my hair do this, even at the beginning of my journey when I didn't know what I was doing.
So Wednesday morning, I used APB Ayurvedic cream and MHC buttery soy, put it in an bun and left it alone all day Wednesday. This was the most traumatic M/s session. I had hair everywhere: the sink, my shirt, my hands. I had to clean hair off of my hands after each section. I usually only check my hands at the end to see how much broken piece I have.
Thursday evening I spritz with some water and moisturize with APB Ayurvedic cream. The breakage was less than half what it was the day before, so we re on the right track. I will do a deep conditioner today to keep on top of this breakage.
Now I don't know if I should still flat iron on Wednesday as planned.
