I cowash twice weekly on Tuesday and Thursday

I am currently cowashing with Oyin Honey Hemp, Tresemme Avocado (sp), AOHSR, and my
other conditioners that do not come to mind

I expect moisture hair and greater length retention

I occasionally use SM moisture retention and black soap for shampoo on the weekend. I put it in a nozzle bottle(either one) and use maybe a tablespoonful and fill the rest of the 12 ounce container with water and shake.

I am having great results with cowashing!

I'm definitely still in. Cowashed last night with tresemme naturals condish. the original formula. I'm going to be said if I cant find anymore of this. This cheap condish is amazing for my hair.

 

[beans4reezy]

I didn't have much last time around (too much tangling) , the constant cowashing made my hair suffer a bit. I will be lurking though, as I'm sure I did something wrong...

 

[Diva_Esq]

I seriously wasn't impressed with what is said to be the original formula that has been recently brought back. I will give it one more try before concluding #fail. Many stores have the non-original formula and looks like I may need to clean the racks because my hair loves that stuff.
