    Default I think I lost it :)

    It's been sometime since I last did a deep conditioning on my hair.

    I utilize either olive oil or coconut oil, both work flawlessly for me.

    I have a few days off work (3rd shift). Before I went to bed that morning of my last day, I clarified my hair, oiled up heavily with coconut, throw on the shower cap and went to bed.

    I woke up some 9 hours later and decided to leave it in overnight for a total of 21 hours of oiling

    I normally shampoo but decided to cowash heavily. It only took once and I'm glad I did. My hair being thick and unruly that it is, it shines like mad, very soft and controlable. I'll stick with this routine for awhile and see how it goes.

    Sorry no pics till it gets long

    Yea, I'm glad I did it. I think though from now on, I'll oil overnight only. Next time I'll try olive oil and see what kinda results I get. My hair does love it though.

    That method works great for me too but I just do overnight with the oiling. CO gets the oil out beautifully.
