Spring/Summer Cowash Challenge 2010

[ingenious_mind]

Is it too late to join this challenge??? For the past few weeks I have been co-washing everyday. Before that I was co-washing 2x a week I've been using, nourish spa, tea tree tingle conditioner, or a V05 moisture milks. I also deep condition once a week with either lutrasilk mango shea butter or ORS conditioner.

Have you noticed a difference in moisture or growth since you started co-washing daily?

How is the wen lavendar? I was going to give it to my mom because she always obsesses about volume and i think this is what this wen product is for. I always use the sweet almond mint and fig. But I'd like some volume for when I wear my hair curly. Does it actually give you volume is basically my ?. Sorry for the round aboutness.

I honestly am not sure. I usually wear my hair in a bun or 2 pigtails to airdry. So I am not sure if i get volume or not.

Co-washed with suave humectant yesterday, pulled my hair back and put on my scarf and went to bed. My hair came out nice and flat this morning and I'm bunning as usual.

 

[youwillrise]

are any of you using giovanni smooth as silk conditioner for your condition washes?

i just ordered some (i know, i said i wasnt ordering anything else lol) but it was $5.17 at iherb.com and i couldnt pass it up because i usually see it for close to $8 at the vitamin shoppe and other places...so i decided to try it.

giovanni is another brand i've been avoiding trying for all these years. i figure for $5, i'd give it a shot.

Well, I think this has to be the best challenge out there! I finished my aerobics class tonight and felt like running a couple of miles, walked back to my CHU and grabbed Herbal Essence Hydralicious Featherweight and co washed!!! So far, third co-wash this week and I'm loving it!! I've decided to co-wash on Mon, Wed and on Sat I'm going to finish using up my hennas/amlas/cassia's by doing glosses. Once I finish using those up, that Sat will turn into a co-wash day!

I'm feeling so good about this challenge, that I've decided to start training for a half marathon! i'm going to use this challenge to help with my training, so by the time this one ends, I would have met my half marathon goal as well!!
Wish me lucK ladies!!!!

Found V05 moisture milks today - 1st time ever seeing it in the UK. I bought the Strawberries and Cream and I can't remember the other one right now.

I'll try them out soon.

cowashed today w/ a mix of AM and Giovanni Tea Tree Triple Treat...my hair feels GREAT!

 

[bellebebe]

Please please please add my name to the list!! Puh-leez!!!! Co-wash is all I do. 3/week.

 

[naturalepiphany]

Checking in I cowashed this morning. Lately I've been cowashing at least twice a week with VO5 conditioner for my roots and aussie moist on the length (using this up so I can go back to my Tresseme Flawless Curls). The Aussie moist is okay, my hair stays soft but it really does the same thing Tresseme does for my hair.

 

[chrisanddonniesmommy]

Checking in. After I dc (which I'm doing now under my hood dryer), I will co-wash using VO5 Passionfruit Smoothie.

After rollersetting my hair last weekend, I think I'm going to cut my cowashes down to once a week for a little while. Even though it's only been 3 days, I'm loving the ease of stretched hair. I even detangled today on my dry hair!! It was so easy . All I did was apply Cantu leave-in to half of my hair at a time, adding more to the ends, and brushed through with my paddle brush. I got through my hair with no problem and my shed hair was a little less that it is when I detangle on wet hair .

I will be Co-Washing Friday after Self-Relaxing with Nutrine Garlic Conditioner (to 'help' ward off any potential shedding) from the relaxing process. I will Co-Wash with the Nutrine this right after neutralizing.

And will Follow up with Lamurr Bone Marrow DC Treatment under Steamer.

 

[vainღ♥♡jane]

i can't wait to cowash tomorrow. i'm gonna be using HE HH. i know i've said its not all that great, but its not horrible either, and i'm not a pj so i use whatever i got til its gone. ♥

 

[chelleypie810]

Cowashed today w/ wen sweet almond mint. DC'd with aubrey organics honeysuckle rose.

 

[Black Hoya Chick]

^^that puff is too cute!

i am not sure how i feel about this new leave-in. i AM gonna finish it though. at the worst, i will just have to cowash daily. its a good thing, i just have a lot of hair (and its still growing) so its getting tedious

 

[equestrian]

I've now concluded HE Hello Hydration was just "ok". I still don't know why I didn't repeat my purchase of the Garnier Triple nutrition cream conditioner.
That stuff is amazing, my hair dried so soft whereas with HH it dries into a poof ball. I guess because HH was getting so much hype and I figured it would knock garnier out of the park. I have to get more, plus I need to try the 3 minute dryness undo.

 

[vainღ♥♡jane]

i cowashed with HE HH and put my hair in another puff.

i'm glad this bottle of HH is almost gone cuz i'm ready to move on. ♥

 

[~NanCeBoTwin~]

cowashed today, with AM and the Giovanni Tea Tree Triple Treat (I'm really loving this Giovanni)

 

[yora88]

I got my hair relaxed today and guess what? There was no need for a trim! I have to contribute this to my daily cowashing and applying deep conditioner relaxer style. This will make it 8+ weeks without a trim.

Yesterday I conditioned washed with Joico Moisture Recovery & Aussie 3 min Deep Conditioner ...my hair smells great and feels great.

 

[cch24]

Co-rinsed again this morning. I love Tresemme Naturals for cowashing/rinsing but it's not the best as a leave-in. Tomorrow is wash day, and I'm going to try Bee-Mine Hair Milk and Curly Butter to bun, and leave that bun in until Sunday.

 

[Diva_Esq]

Yay!

I will be co-washing 4-7x per week with HE TT, HE LTR, YTC, or Bedhead Moisture Maniac!

Cowashed today with HE LTR and left Moisture Maniac in for my wet bun.

 

[chebaby]

i co washed today with mozeke moisturizing conditioner and styled my hair with CD hair milk and vatika frosting.
tomorrow i plan on co washing with aussie moist and maybe a little giovanni xtreme protein.

 

[Shadiyah]

cowashed with Vo5 silky and mixed chicks deep cond

 

[Vonnieluvs08]

Cowashed all last week with YTC!! It did well for detangling and as a leave-in especially combined with KBB hair milk. Glad to be back from vacation to rotate product usage.

 

[Vonnieluvs08]

Yesterday I cowashed with Tresemme Naturals condish. It had a nice scent and detangled well. DC with Sitrinillah/MT/AOGPB. I used my curl formers so won't cowash again until next tuesday/wednesday.
