DC'd last night with ORS hair replenishing condish...not so good. So had to put AO Rosa Mosqueta on top. Helped, but feel it would have been better w/o the ORS.

Will DC with it again on Sunday.

[tiffers]

Arian Have you tried Silk Dreams Vanilla Silk or Camille Rose SOYlicious and Jansyn Moisture Max conditioners? Phenomenal moisture and softness.

 

[sckri23]

Are all the conditioners mentioned DCs or are they just good conditioners that you use to DC?

Cause I been lookin for DCs that actually say DC or treatment.
