Will oil hair with EVOO mixed with vitamin E oil and a few drops of tea tree oil. Cover hair with plastic cap for a few hours and follow with conditioner wash.

Technically not in this challenge, but just wanted to share, if there's an oil challenge after the 30th I'm in. I infused an assortment of oils in an assortment of herbs. Mainly trying to clear my dresser...too many products. I've done nothing to my hair this month, why I have them all is beyond me. I hope this will get me on track, since it took so much effort.


Oils:
—Africa's Best Ultimate Herbal
—Keo Karpin
—Almond
—Castor

Powders/Herbs/Misc:
—Horsetail
—Nettle Leaf
—Fenugreek
—Shikakai
—Ginger
—Tea Masala (I was curious...)

I don't expect anything, but am happy to finally be rid of those bottles of useless things.

Plan:
—Oil nightly
—Clarify Monthly
—Cowash in between as needed

I'll use my nape for measurement....it's really a sad reality. It was 5.5" in november and now....it's 5.25" It's growing backwards. This setback may be due to a number of things, including an unsteady diet, lack of exercise, lack of sun, lack of sleep, lack of a regimen...etc. etc. I've really set myself up for this, but the weird thing is that the rest of my hair is growing quite fabulously. But what's the point if I'm going to be uber preoccupied with the nape :nono:

For anyone who's interested, I'll post a start pic when I redo these current braids/or remove them this weekend. I'll post an update pic the weekend of May 20th.

ETA: Infused Oil Starting Pic & Blog Entry

Also...*sheepish* my hair's not growing backwards, but I may certainly be growing dumber. :look:

Hey Ladies, Decided to Self-Relax today. I used Coconut Oil and some Pure Keratin Oil on my Previously Relaxed Hair.

I added a squirt or 2 of Shea Butter Oil into my Relaxer (MBB Sensitive Scalp No-Lye).

I applied Pure Argan with my Leave In and will probably Sealed after moisturizing with HV Avosoya Oil.

Used Quite a bit of Oils today.

@IDareT'sHair - So how did the relaxing go? Good, I'm sure...What did you use??

@Brownie518

It went okay:perplexed I don't think my smoothing was good as it coulda' been.

I used MBB Sensitive Scalp No-Lye. Mid-Protein w/Joico KPak, Co-washed with Nutrine Garlic and Moist 24/7.

Neutralized, Chelated, Acidified. WHEW!:grin: (Not in that Order, of course)

Sat under dryer with AE Garlic. Then I Steamed with KBB Luscious Locs.:yep:

I used up my Njoi Sweet Coconut Pomade. I have 1 Back Up of this.

Today I've been using HV's Vatika Frosting.

I'll use about 1/2 Jar and stick it back in the Refridge.:look:

I love using this after Relaxing for some reason. I find it very soothing to my Hair/Scalp.:lick:

I pulled out my She Scent It Marshmallow Hair Cream. For My Oils I'll being using SSI Cocosta Oil and/or HV Avosoya Oil, JBCO.

Did an oil rinse with sweet almond oil yesterday after dcing and before detangling. Doing a HOT right now with sweet almond oil. Will rinse then cowash. I feel and see the difference when oil rinsing. My hair is really soft, easier to detangle, and great curl definition. This combined with my weekly ayurvedic pastes are a real benefit to my hair.

This challenge is supposed to be helping me use up oils,but I keep buying new ones.:look:. My newest conquest is Anita Grant's organic sapote castor hair oil.*slow pervert drools*
This oil is amazing!! No other way to put it! I have used it as a HOT and to seal. I love it sooooo much. We have a local supplier of Anita Grant in my city now,so I'm in trouble. I have already planned when I'm going back there to get another one.:ohwell:

PinkPebbles, I really need to stop. Lmao! Seriously,I'm going to have to mix the good stuff with the mediocre until I finish them. I have blown through every oil that I raved about in here,and the so-so ones are still sitting there staring at me accusingly. :nono:. I pick up good ones,like "oooh,this will be good for the oil challenge." I have to use up the sucky ones! Lol.
