I DC every Wednesday and Saturday and cowash it out.. thats it.

Co-washed Tuesday with HE LTR conditioner. Hair responded pretty well. I think I'm gonna stick to cowashing once a week until the weather gets a little warmer here in Houston.

Cowashed this morning with Suave Coconut and Pantene Curls, rinsing all of the condish out. I must say products do matter. My naked hair is nowhere near as soft as it is when I use SSI condishes . I added some leave-in and it's okay, but nothing to write home about.

CW'd Thurs with Redken All Soft con, rinsed and bunned it up using Redken Heavy Cream and jheri curl juice.

Last nite poo'd with Aveda shampoo for blond hair and DC'd with heat with Aveda Damage Remedy. It's still in right now . I have on a plastic bag, a scarf and a hat and am about to go for a 30 minute walk. When I get back I'll shower and rinse it out, then rollerset. I probably won't cowash again for a few days.

Hi everyone. This is my very first post and I would love to join this challenge. The last year and a half I have been natural but did not take care of my hair so yesterday my husband shaved my head bald for me. I am so happy to be starting all over from scratch.

I plan to co wash daily alternating between my conditioners until they are completely gone:

Suave Naturals Fresh Berry Smoothie (almost gone)

Suave Naturals Tropical Coconut

Creme Of Nature Chamomile & Comfrey (Trying to use up)

Sunsilk Therma Shine (Trying to use up)

Elasta QP Intense

Count Me IN!!
I currently co-wash weekly but i plan on doing the following...

Pre-poo with EVOO
Co-Wash with Aussie Moist
DC with Pantene restoratives mask(1hr heated/3+hours without heat)
use a dime sized amount of aussie moist as leave-in along with evoo on ends and a little Aloe Vera Gel

(i also plan on clarifying with ACV and Baking Soda bi-weekly but that may change to weekly..depends on what my hair likes)

then I intend on going on about my bidnazz

[OhSoOthentik]

Just checking in. I co-wash at least every other day and then add S-Curl for moisture. I baggy while sleeping. Its going good for now.

 

[Summer79]

I did a prepoo (pre cowash) with Vatika oil, then cowashed with my trusty Suave humectant which I never rinse out 100%, and sealed that in with a little Vatika and some Oyin Burnt Sugar Pomade. It's got my other fav oil in it, castor oil, plus I LOVE the smell!

 

[Jade Feria]

Man, sometimes I feel like I want to cowash my hair every day! I love cowashes!!

I picked up a bottle of Renpure Moisturizing Conditioner. I want to use it now!! My hair is still pretty soft from last night's DC. I'll wait until tomorrow LOL

 

[~NanCeBoTwin~]

Cowashed today using V05 Kiwi Lime....then V05 Free Me Fressia from the MM line. I had to get that setting lotion out of my hair from the ponytail rollerset I did yesterday. My hair felt horrible to the touch.

 

[NappyDesma]

Ran 3.5 miles tonight, braided about 12 plaits and co- washed with giovanni direct leave in. So far so good. I wanted to use it up along with my gariner sleek and shine. I have so much conditioner that I brought with me and bought since I've been here!
I'll post my results tomorrow and maybe a pic.

Cowashed with MC Biotin Conditioner and HE LTR. I love cowashing. My HE LTR makes me feel like I'm doing an HE commercial. :eyebrows2

 

[LaFemmeNaturelle]

Just co-washed with Vo5 Free Me Fresia followed by HE Hydralicious Reconditioning. Left some in and my hair is airdrying sooo nicely!

 

[Shadiyah]

I am only starting out with co-washing 2-3 times this week but once it gets hot I will be doing it everyday.
I have been using wen fig; mixed chicks deep cond

I can't wait to go back to the store. I wanted shescentit banana bree but they are closed. anyone know why?

 

[Scorpiocutie]

Co washed yesterday and today using Suave Tropical Coconut.

 

[Jade Feria]

I cowashed with Renpure Organics Moisturizing Shampoo. IT SMELLS SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!! I know I saw people saying it smelled good, but I wasn't expecting this orgasmirificness of a scent!

Then I did a final rinse with PC, put a little HE LTR leave-in on my ends and Organix Coconut Milk Anti-Breakage serum through out my hair. Even with those delicious-smelling products, my hair still smells like Renpure.

I put my hair in 2 buns to airdry and I keep tossing my head around just to catch a whiff of the smell. OMG I'm still ing!!

 

[Firstborn2]

Love Cowashing the weather was perfect for it today, I think will do it everyday if the weather stays like this...

Co-rinsed with Tresemme Naturals.

Cowashed with Dove conditioner. Applied breakage defense mask to hair immediately after. I must say that the breakage defense mask has stopped ALL breakage and shedding. It's amazing. After I use up all of my Dove conditioners I plan on cowashing with Panetene Relaxed and Natural conditioner.
