Is it better to cowash with a thin conditioner or thick? The only time me that I tried cowashing, I used Nexxus Therapy, which left my hair feeling soft, but not clean.

@faithVA
thanks for the mention, girl
This is an awesome idea for a thread. Count me in!!
MUST ANSWER THE FOLLOWING 10 QUESTIONS
1) State of hair (relaxed, natural, etc.) transitioning from relaxed to texturized...currently wearing waist length yarn braids
2) Current hair length: SL
3) Ultimate hair length: BSL
4) Year end hair goal (length, density, softness factor, ends maintenance etc): keeping the protein/moisture balance in check, retaining lush healthy ends which will give me more length!!
5) Method you will be using to cleanse your hair and scalp while retaining moisture: co-wash, co-cleanse and I want to try a mud wash using Nap84's recipe
6) Number of times per week you will do this: 1-2 times week or whenever I need added moisture
7) Products and/or ingredients you will be using: neem and tulsi poo bar while still in braids, followed by a diluted deep conditioner (not sure of dc product yet). After braids, co-cleansing with Wen Fig and Wen 613 as I will be at least 17 weeks post by then. Co-wash with VO5, ORS replenish conditioner, Shea Moisture sulfate-free poos. Excited to try this Nubian Heritage Hemp & Tamanu co-wash and Tresemmee split remedy conditioner
8) Anything you will be doing just prior or after (deep conditioning, hot oil, ayurvedic treatment, oil rinsing etc): prepoo with garlic oil and Hair Trigger, henna twice a month before cowashing, DCing after each co-wash or co-cleanse, co-washing a few days after fenugreek and henna deep treatments as needed. Will try tea rinsing as a final rinse after co-washing/cleansing
9) Frequency of traditional shampoo use: bi-weekly
10) List shampoo: neem and tulsi poo bar, nupur shikakai poo bar, ORS creamy aloe poo, Profectiv mega growth stimulating poo
ETA: Sorry Ogoma, I thought faithVA started the thread

Here's a link to a blog I found where the owner uses a lot of herbs and clays to clean her hair. She's a 4c natural.
