    Default Just for kicks: What have you done for your hair so far today?

    My boss is out, so I let my 5 day dirty hair go an extra day. I brushed, then coated it in coconut oil from the ears down, bunned, and am wearing a scarf over the top. (Added bonus: my hair is finally long enough to bun without bits sicking out, so it feels extra protected at the moment.)

    Tonight after my workout I'll be clarifying and deep conditioning with Tresseme Naturals for the first time. Plus my favorite shower activity...a scalp massage.

    Your turn!

    I combed it all out, which is sort of rare for me. I put gel in it, which didn't do anything, as usual. Then I bunned and forked it. After working out I'll wash it with AOHR and probably sock bun it. Then I will feel like royalty.

    I'm trying to see if I can make it one week without washing my hair,
    so far it's been 4 days.
    I had to sprinkle a little baby powder into it to degrease it a bit, and then brushed the powder out.
    Now I'm wondering how many more days I can make it, or if I will wash before the 7 days are up.
    It may be that I'm going to end up needing to wash my hair at least twice a week.

    I put a tiny gloss of shea butter on my ends this morning, and ran a couple drops of bpal's "rapunzel" oil scent through my hair.

    I've tried to make it a week with little success, so twice/week is what I do too. So far so good. Dry shampoo gets me to day 5 though. I just discovered Klorane, if you're interested in a recommendation. (Baby powder is great, I just find it hard to blend with my dark hair.)

    Today I massaged Argan oil into the roots and rubbed amla darbur oil in through the ends. Hubbie massaging the scalp before bed and a hundred devoted brushstrokes after capoeira tonight!

    Washed, conditioned, put leave-in. Combed. Left down for a few minutes, then put up in a french twist held w/a pen. Took it down maybe half an hour ago to let it finish drying. Right now, it's held in a low pony with a scrunchie.

    I have been considering cutting up to waist lately :O It is currently just above TB, b/c I keep trimming it...
    2a/b / M/C / ii. Low porosity.

    I did a scalp massage with castor oil, put olive oil on the ends, let it sit for a few hours, and washed as usual. I don't think I got all the oil out, which is a first.

    Yeah, the baby powder looks a tad strange.
    Thanks for the recommendation
