Are some of you not shampooing or otherwise washing out the conditioner? Just rinsing?

Sorry MissT didn't see you there. I usually just cowash, but when it's time to poo I do it after rinsing the conditioner.

I tried this yesterday and I love it!!!! My hair was a dry mess because I'm 10 weeks post and I've been wearing wash~gos. So yesterday I wanted my hair to be cute for my nephew's birthday party. I put some Silicon Mix in my dry hair and put on my conditioner heat cap for 30 minutes. I rinsed my hair out and my hair was like butter!!!! I was so happy, it was so easy to comb out my hair.

Thanks Sareca!!!!

 

[halee_J]

Tried this with Miss Key 10 en 1......WOW! Thanks so much for the tip Sareca!!!

I read this whole thread and what I'm understanding is that..

put conditioner on dry hair, put on a plastic cap, towel and sit under the dryer for about 20-30 minutes.

next, you poo and then condition again.

Questions:

1. How long do the condition after the poo is suppose to stay on your hair?
2. What step would you incorporate Oil Rinse in the above?
3. How does Oil rinse affect relaxed hair?

TIA

1. As long as you want, but I only do a few minutes (2-4 minutes).
2. I DC dry hair w/ heat, rinse, (poo if desired), apply oil, rinse with warm water, apply conditioner, rinse with cool water.
3. Seems like folks that airdry have better success than folks that rollerset. It also seems that naturals and texlaxers have better curl definition from oil rinses.

I did a heavy protein treatment and I had a little breakage afterward. I tried this and it worked like a charm! Thanks Sareca! You're the best!

Thanks Sareca,

I actually tried this today after and my hair was very soft and I didn't loose hair like I used to. I am doing a rollerset (letting it dry overnight) from feeling the texture as it is drying, i can tell it is a winner. Thanks.

Sacrea
I love ya girl, Hair loved it.

Thanks

 

[Serenity_Peace]

I'm almost 16 weeks post-relaxer and need something to tame this NG. I can't wait to try this for my weekly DC treatment.

 

[sareca]

@ Angie, CDW and dreamer, glad it's working for ya'll. I just finished doing mine with Aveda brilliant and I keep petting my head. It's so soft.

@ SP, let us know how it goes.

Has anyone tried this after exercising the day before?

I normally exercise on Fridays and wanted to try this Saturday morning.

I was wondering if it's bad to do this seeing that my hair is dry but there is probably still sweat in it from the day before.... They say sweat is bad for the hair...

Any thoughts?

Thanks

I dont think it would be bad because a lot of people who work out a lot still dont wash/condition any more than usual (maybe 1-2 times a week). I usually go in the sauna after I workout and I plan on starting to deep condition my dry hair while Im in there. It definitely beats me going in there and sitting with naked hair because that is drying by itself. Im gonna use whatever conditioner, a plastic cap, and a moist towel on my head for 20 to 30 minutes. Then Ill shower and wash it or Ill just go home and finish my routine because I live right down the street. Of course Id take the shower cap and towel off first

 

[mkstar826]

i have to try this. I think I may have put condish on dry hair before but not w/ a cap and heat. I gotta try the oil rinse too...

 

[sareca]

I'm guessing people say sweat is bad because it's salty and can be drying, but I've DC'd my sweaty hair without consequence.

Looking to see if weekly washers have used this method succesfully.

 

[FindingMe]

thanks for posting...that in and out of the shower discourages me a lot of times from DCing the way I should...how did I not know this? I use OJON Res Treat every week.... THanks again!!!

I have been doing this for years now. It is essential to my hair.

Thanks for breaking it down cause I didn't have time to read the whole thread. I'm gonna give this a try this weekend.

I have been doing this for the past month, and I have noticed a big change, but then you know how you over analyze stuff?

I started to think I am doing more harm than good DC'ing on dry hair with a weeks worth of product in my hair.

Your hair is gorgeous- it seems like it has served you well

Thanks! It has been a life and hair saver!

 

[PhonyBaloney500]

Bump! Anyone still doing this?

 

[MrsSmitty77]

Great post OP, I do this all the time and my hair loves it! I love it too because it does save me alot of time.

 

[Mahalialee4]

Totally on the money, Sareca. I use this method most often with protein treatments. My hair just sucks it up when it's dry, so I get a much more effective treatment. I can really feel the effects! I honestly haven't noticed as much as a difference with moisturizing conditioners, but deep protein conditioners...wow! Even the cheapies work well.

I totally agree. It does work beautifully. With or without heat. And without getting in and out of a shower. Life really needs to be simplified! I try to 'uncomplicate' my regime as much as possible. I do this with LeKair Cholesterol as well.

 

[The Princess]

Yeah I do this all the time as well. Its the only DC method that I use.

 

[sharifeh]

I did this yesterday with silicon mix !! It definitely seems like a winner! I hate jumping in and out of the shower.

 

[Jalen's Mom]

I DC on dry hair with my steamer, and it saves me so much time. I love this method, and I will never go back to DCing on wet hair. My hair is doing really well after a setback, and I think part of the reason is this method.

 

[sparklebh]

This is the only way I DC and my hair loves it. Dry is the way to go and it's so much of a time saver. I also do my protein dc on dry hair.
