Conditioner Only Method- Day 2

Saturday I used Garnier Moisture Works. Same method as before.

The verdict: A little bit more curl def, but this conditioner dried a lil' crunchy. I still had major shrinkage. I don't think I'm making this my go to hair style any time soon.

Conditioner-Only Method-3 Day Challenge

Day 1: I said I was going to give this a try, and I'm a woman of my word. However, the skepticism is still lingering.

Last night I pre-poo'd with honey and olive oil (3 TB of each). This morning I co washed with HE Hello Hydration, then detangled. I shingled my hair with Naked Naturals conditioner, re-activated the product under the shower stream, then shook the excess water from my hair. I plopped with a t-shirt for about 20 minutes. My hair was still damp, but not dripping, and my hair absorbed all the conditioner.

I took the kiddies to the zoo, and my fro shrinkage was massive. To top it off, I had NO curl definition, just some nice clumping. It was just a plain 'ol fro, nothing special. I'm posting this at 9:13 pm and my hair feels great, it's soft, but my ends are tangled and I'll probably have some knots in the morning.

Maybe it's the conditioner. It's only day one. Needless to say I did not get the results I was looking for. Tomorrow I'll try the Garnier. Keep your fingers crossed.

Tresses a la Teri

Everybody's doing it.

It's all over YouTube.

You don't know? Haven't you heard?

It's the Conditioner Only method, and after much skepticism, and extensive research ( read YouTube watching), I'm deciding to give it a try.






This hair craze was started by Teri over at tightlycurly.com. Check out the site for all the details.

Why the skepticism, you ask? Because all the recommended conditioners contained silicones. Tressemme, Aussie and Herbal Essences were the most popular products. I thought that was a Curly Girl no-no. Then I thought about it. You're co-washing your hair daily, rinsing away the conditioner and eliminating any chance of -cone build-up.

I have to say I'm jealous of the results that YouTube Curlies are getting with this method, search "conditioner only method". I'm using NaturallyNike's technique.

I'm doing a 3-day challenge to see which conditioner gives the best results- curl definition, minimal shrinkage, 2nd day hair, crunch-free lol! I will post pics. Yeah! I'll be using
