Cleve_gryl,
I go to the salon. I forgot the name of the last relaxer she used but I think it was Influence. I will be sure to ask on Thursday and let you know. That was the first time she used that one on me but before that she used Design.

I might be sitting next to you on that MTG bandwagon.

Do any of my 3 ladies use Alma oil? I saw this at the Indian grocery last night, but was afraid to get it not only because I've heard its funky but it may be heavy. Anyone?

Hey girlie!! Someone from NE Ohio!! You in the AK??

I actually have a couple different textures in my hair too. The top is like 3b, then underneath (nape) is almost 2c, then I have a nice little patch in the middle which I feel is 5D, but its more like 4A...so with all that I still can't find the correct mix of products

Without giving it all away (you know the bad lurkers) I am near Geauga Lake about five minutes away and near that new Kohl's/Walmart area.

Hey try going to India Grocers on W. 130 street. It is in the Yellow pages under Grocers. They have a good selection. You can get Almondol from there...I find it to be good stuff, it is coconut oil based.

I used it before shampooing before, and I could still smell it after. So... haven't tried it since.
It didn't leave my hair greasy or heavy though, it as just the smell. I woudln't recommend it for everyday use though. Only pre-shampoo.

Dionne31,
I had the hardest time trying to determine my own so I know what you are going thru! Do a google search on Andre's Hair type or typing and you will find a lot of descriptions to help you determine yours.

HTH

 

[Miss*Tress]

Amla oil is great for pre-poo or mixed with cassia. It's probably good mixed with henna too, but I haven't tried it yet.

Do you have any pics of your natural hair or your new growth (didn't see any in fotki)? I don't know if you're relaxed or not but if you are you will need a few inches of new growth to determine what your hair type is.

Thanks for responding
I don't have any pictures of my new growth ( I just relaxed about 3 weeks ago) I will be certain to take pictures & come back then. Thanks

Ok 3's, how often are you all washing your hair in a week? I wash once a week.

 

[Cichelle]

I cowash every day (or every other day) and I am currently using shampoo about once a week.

 

[RainbowCurls]

I typically shampoo once a week and CO wash every 1-3 days (depending on the weather). I shampoo more if I'm trying to get rid of colour.

 

[DDTexlaxed]

I wash w. shampoo 2-3xs a month. The rest, I daily wash w. conditioner. My texlaxed hair loves water, just as my natural hair did. I just use HH hello hydration and use MNT cond as a leave in and go. I can wear it curly or I can put it in a pony to air dry.

Hey ladies im a 3b/3c i was wondering if cassia is good for adding thickness and strengthening the hair...or what are some things i can do to acheive this.. my hair is dyed jet black so i dont want to use henna cuz i dont wanna risk gettin some red..I also tried castor oil after sealing in moisture but it is way heavy for my hair and makes it gummy for daily use
