Sometimes, I’ll even shampoo my hair in the shower, then rinse the conditioner out in the kitchen sink later!

Wash hair.... turn off shower, put in Aphogee in tub.... step out onto shower rug (that is covered by towell), stand up and apply blow dryer w/funnel to length of hair (because i dont have a hooded drier)..... after hair has hardened, hop back in shower and rinse out, condition with Aphogee moisturizing conditioner for a few minutes, then put in my own conditioner concoction. Step out of shower (put on robe this time), put on plastic cap, chill for about 20 minutes doing housework, get back in shower, rinse out hair, moisturize and bun. It's a hassle, and a lot of hopping in and out of shower, but still better than washing in the sink!

In terms of protein treatments.... yeah, it is kind of annoying, all the hopping back and forth. But I do it, because like i said, too many tangles otherwise. I kind of just minimize the work by remaining naked and dripping wet the entire time.
*I really need to invest in a good hooded drier.*
. It's weird because I can get my hair cleaner in the sink or at least it feels like I can. I like to really scrub and it takes a while so I'd rather the shower water not be running that whole time. I think i'll keep doing like I did last time and just rinse out my conditioner in the shower and do everything else in the sink. This seemed to work out very well.

! If I'm doing my special treatments, I don't like to get in and out of the shower all the time, esp. now that it's getting colder, and I'm trying to do cold rinses. For ex. I may do a pre-poo treatment, shampoo in the shower, bathe, and then get out to section hair for the conditioner. At this point, I prefer to put on clothes, and then rinse my hair in the sink. NOTE: My sink also has a SPRAYER so it's like being in the shower. The water does not collect in the sink, but goes down the drain.
Not to mention that icky feeling of that conditioner on my body when I rinse it out of my hair. Bending over the tub is so much easier for me (I've gotten used to it) and I don't worry about the tangles. My hair hardly ever gets tangled during a wash anymore.
) and i still don't know why. i always wanted to be 'normal' and wash it in the shower like everyone else! the second i moved out i headed straight for the shower!
that's what i was thinking. i didn't know that washing one's hair in the sink was so frowned upon. it's my hair that i am washing. besdies i don't want to have to get naked everytime that i want to wash or cond. my hair.Whichever is most convenient, really.
