Now experiencing Co-Washing...

Co-Washing: using your Conditioner in place of Shampoo

I wake up late today, I was not in a very happy mood from yesterday. I start my Morning by saying my mantra to keep me focused and to encourage myself. I decide to co-wash this morning after i reached into my hair to SCRATCH! My hair was so dry and poofy, it was just down right sad. I guess my hair was feeling the way I was feeling too. So, I started the co-washing process, blindly reaching for the VO5 moisture milk and the bottle felt heavy, it shouldn't. I open my eyes to see that it's my clarifier :(

I did not want to Clairify, I wanted to Co-wash!  So I rinse my hair without agitation and proceed with the right  stuff, my conditioner. Lesson: Don't have all your products in the shower like I do.

Loved my Co-wash this morning since its hot here, 102 daily to be exact. I can do the Co-Washes in the morning so see how my hair likes it. I can say that it felt instant moisture because of the water mostly but when I rinsed and applied my Roux Porosity Control and co-washed again, did a detangle in the water and conditioner, it felt Abfab! (Absolutely Fabulous). I will pick up the co-washing more and shampooing less this month, it felt so great to have that instant moisture this morning and I am happy to report that I didn't have that much comb-out from the process.My hair felt so smooth and slippery. I loved that feeling, it didn't feel coated to me unlike when I dry Deep Condition.

I ended my Co-wash with moisturizing and sealing and I got ready for work and drove away. I will be 10 weeks post on July 12th. I'm considering going another week but we will see how it goes next week when I update with the Co-Washes, Pictures next time I promise.

Until then Happy hair Adventures
