2012 DC Challenge Part III (July 1st- Sept 30th)

[mschristine]

I wanna join!!! I DC once a week with ORS Replenishing Conditioner. After I finish this bottle, I'm going start rotating between Giovanni 50/50 and AOGPB(?). I'm prepooing right now with my coconut, castor, jojoba oil mix, afterwards, I'll shampoo with suave professionals almond and Shea butter moisturizing shampoo and DC with ORS replenishing conditioner for a few hours without heat

 

[Leslie_C]

Yesterday I prepood with EVCO/honey mix, washed, and did an Aphoghee 2 minute keratin tx followed by 45 min DC under my heat cap with One N Only Argan Oil Mask. Then I put my hair in twists and hope to keep these for a week or so.

Yes! It's been a staple for me for such a long time

 

[Lanea87]

So yesterday around 5:30 am I did a dry DC on my ponytail length again with this packet of Ion Effective Treatment I had hanging around since last year came free at Sallys during a card renewal or something. Anyway, who would have thought that little packet would be so great! I just rinsed it out then applied HE HH for 10 minutes to my whole head and cowashef. Talk about a soft and strong moisturized hair! I'm supposed to be using up my stash not falling in love with new products to add to it, I need the full size bottle now.

Add it to the wish list, dont you go out buying stuff LOL.

 

[Lanea87]

I am about to start the wash session, about to apply EVCO/WGO/JBCO to my scalp and leave it on overnight. See you ladies in the morning!

halee_J me and ORS Replenishing mask are married by common law, but the relationship got a little stale and my eyes were wandering. I started to think the grass may be greener on the other side. I was sadly mistaken and havent found anything that beats it, or at least anything available on the ground. We are reconciling and about to renew our vows and go on a second honeymonon. I dont know why I was led astray from my old faithful, when I was relaxed/texlaxed using that conditioner only, my hair grew the longest its ever been as an adult. I just restocked my liter bottle and will alternate with my other stash until I use i up, but this will be my main conditioner. It gives the perfect combo of strength and softness. I will ever doubt its abilities again lol.

Tomorrows wash/DC day yaaay I get to try out a new DC. Im still not sure which one but I got time

Have you tried any of the new DCs ORS put out? I'm thinking about trying the hair repair with the Banana in it or the new masque they have out

LMBO because this 15% off Sallys coupon is calling my name.

Note to self: use coupon on new nail polish and nail stuff only. Lol

 

[halee_J]

Leslie_C lol you two having reconciled, I'm glad he took you back I just wish they would maybe change the scent, I've grown tired of that faint psuedo-orangey scent. Lemme not talk too hard 'cause they might change the scent and the formulation while the're at it, you know how these companies do

 

[halee_J]

healthy2008 Is the hair repair one in the packets? I've been eyeing the hair repair for a minute now, that is leona2025's baby I haven't seen it in stores or online. I'm afraid to try it though, in case I fall in love and can't restock when I need to. I can't deal with that emotional turmoil! As for the masque, yeah I may pick that one up soon, like today

Yeah, that's the one. I want to try it but I'm not sure if my Sallys carry it. Last time i was in there, I was on a mission to get some new relaxer brushes and didn't pay attention to anything else.

 

[JulietWhiskey]

DCing tomorrow on dry hair with heat for 30 minutes using Doo Gro Mega Thick Reconstructor, agave nectar and EVOO. Will apply some Nature's Gate Aloe Condish and let my hair airdry in 4 sections overnight...

On Sunday, I'll DC on dry hair with heat for 30 minutes using a mixture of Giovanni Nutrafix, Nature's Gate Aloe Condish, agave nectar and EVOO.

After I detangle and rinse, I'll apply some Nature's Gate Aloe Condish throughout my hair (especially on the ends), seal HEAVILY with Blue Magic Coconut Oil Grease on the ends and on the elastic, put my hair in bun, slick down the front with EcoStyler Olive Oil Gel and wear a scarf to "set" the waves.

Nothing special! Brief enough...?

BUT having said that, my hair is fairly soft and takes moisture very well, and as such, only products like SD Vanilla Silk will produce any discernible affect.

The product is light weight and lightly scented. AND very yellow!

Considering the product fell short of the 4oz container (compared to BASK 4 oz samples which fill up the entire jar and, side by side weight comparisons, also weigh more) and the absence of any wow factor, this product goes in the "never again" bin.

We'll see if it lives up to its claim of reducing shedding....

halee_J Yes that is my baby. I've been feeling like a crack head hunting in every bss asking if they have and when will they be getting in another shipment. I have about 10 packs right now and I can squeeze 2 uses out of each pack. I think I've found a place to get it regularly. I cleaned this bss out and when I went back they had already restocked. I'm going to check to see today.

I haven't tried the new mask. I want to, but ORS did me dirty and NEVER sent out my samples or responded to my second email. I love their Aloe shampoo too. They are making it really hard for me to stay with them.

 

[Lanea87]

I am about to start the wash session, about to apply EVCO/WGO/JBCO to my scalp and leave it on overnight. See you ladies in the morning!

After my wash I applied Nexxus Emergencee for 15 mins under heating cap
DCed with a mixture of ApHogee 2 min, Aussie 3 Min, and WGO.

See you ladies nxt Friday!

ZebraPrintLover Yes it has a strong banana smell, but once you rinse it out it's only light, but you can smell it still. My leave-ins can over power the scent.

I DC every week religiously although I want to try and start shooting for 2x a week starting next Wednesday.

During my most recent vacay, I had the luxury of DCing every other day and my hair was SOOOO happy! And while I don't do a protein treatment often, I think I may begin doing them about every 4-6 weeks since my hair is fine and prone to breakage.

 

[afrochique]

Washed my hair and DCd with ORS Hair Mayo. Rinsed and used HE HH for 10 min.

Oh just asking cause I seen you did one and about to do another, I though you were hitting them every other day or something.

Ain't nobody got time for all that !

Usually, I just use the Nutrafix and be done with it but since the Doo Gro Mega Thick has keratin and I would consider it to be a moderate protein treatment, I want to follow it up with something more moisturizing to keep it balanced...

 

[Brownie518]

DC'd with Black Vanilla Smoothie. I finished that 16oz and had to use a little Vanilla Repair to make up.

I picked up a packet of that Banana ORS Hair Repair cuz ya'll keep talking about it.

I have an 8 ounce of this Product, so thanks for the review. Good to know.

And you're right, it is very Mustard-y Yellow.

 

[Hairroots]

Just DC'ed with Macadamia Natural Oil Deep Repair Masque. Best ever! My hair combed out like spreading butter on bread.
