Re: **2014 Ceramides Challenge**

Is Hemp oil the same as hempseed oil? I purchased hemp oil from whole foods in the refrigerated section. Wondering if I got the right thing.

JazziLady! Yes, they are the same oils. You have the right thing.

Re: **2014 Ceramides Challenge**

Not much of an update this time around. Sealed with Africa's Best Herbal Oil. Also used a blend of castor oil with soybean oil and grapeseed oil. I'm using it more for the purpose of thickening than for the ceramide benefits. I also found out that my favorite DC, Silk Elements MegaSilk Moisture Treatment, was listed as a ceramide DC in last year's ceramide challenge. Deep conditioned with this last night. I use this once a week.

New scalp oil mix: grapeseed, jojoba, hemp seed, broccoli, peppermint, tea tree, and clary sage.

Re: **2014 Ceramides Challenge**

I have been wearing big cornrows for about 2 weeks. When I was putting them in my hair was wet and I put on Giovanni Smooth as Silk Deeper Moisturizer conditioner and sealed with a mix of rosemary, jojoba, castor, and coconut oils. Daily I have been spraying the part that hangs down with Shea Moisture Yucca and Baobab Thickening Moisture Mist and putting on either the Giovanni conditioner or Treseme Moisture Rich conditioner and sealing with the same oil mix I used to braid it up or the one with wheatgerm, jojoba, grapeseed and rosemary oils.

 

[Babygrowth]

Using Oyin BSP. I forgot it has soybean oil, and hemp oil in it

 

[MayaNatural]

Re: **2014 Ceramides Challenge**

Smoothing Loreal Everstrong Sulfate Free overnight hair repair treatment Bio-Ceramide Complex (@ my local lot store for $1.99/ 3.4 oz bottle...WINNING) few times a week along the base of my braids (my hair LOVE IT!) I have been in a set of DIY yarn braids since 1/4/14 (exactly four weeks ago)... Using my DIY braid spray each day and ACV wash and DC the lenght of my braids (3 inches from base of braid) prior to wash day... I have redone my nape (four braids) and my temple braid at each side (my braids are large by braiding standard) when I was two weeks post. I will redo my whole perimeter at the end of Feb/early March... In late may I will remove all braids one by one and replace them with Marley twists... I prefer to wear my Marley twists in Ninja Buns but it is TOO cold for that nonsense right now... I do NOT manipulate my yarn braids into fancy intricate styles as I want to ALWAYS maintain my edges and such... My hair has gone from almost 6 inches (BC 10/27/14) to 8 inches (2/1/14)... Not much for some but I'LL TAKE IT!!!
