Several people have used Catnip in their hair with great results. It is mainly used as a conditioner alternative. But the “side affects” are: reduced split ends (after a while of use there are almost no splits), increased hair thickness, increased hair quantity (in some), and better hair quality all around. It also leaves a little [...]

Conditioner Only – Week 9
Last week I talked about how I thought my scalp condition had started to come back. Well now I’m sure it has. My scalp is red, has flakes, and is really itchy. I didn’t take a second shower last week to give my scalp some time off. I’m not sure if all conditioners are the problem, [...]

Conditioner Only – Week 8
I realized that I didn’t do my second post last week. But it was pretty much the same as the first one, so it’s no big deal.
This week:
Routine: Put lots of Pantene’s Beautiful Lengths ‘dish on my dry hair and let that sit for 20 minutes, then got in the shower and rinsed it out. [...]

Routine: I put Pantene’s Beautiful Lengths ‘dish on my dry hair, left it on for 20 minutes then got in the shower and rinsed it out. I then put on a second, [...]

Conditioner Only – Week 6 – part 2
Routine: Loaded my dry hair down with Pantene Beautiful Lengths ‘dish. Left it on for an hour (which I didn’t plan to do, but it just happened that way), then I got in the shower and rinsed it out.

Conditioner Only – Week 5 – part 2
Routine: Put lots of Pantene (Texturizing) ’dish on my dry hair, left it on for an hour, then got in the shower and rinsed it out. Then I applied a Pantene product called Time-Renewal Replenishing Mask to the “tassels” of my hair, left it on for 5+ minutes (which is recommended) and then rinsed it out.
Results: Nice [...]

Conditioner Only – Week 5
I colored my hair yesterday for the first time in 6+ months. But before I colored I did a Baking Soda wash to make sure I got my hair totally clean. I’ve found that if your hair isn’t clean (and conditioner free) the color doesn’t stick as well. Which makes sense when you think about [...]

Conditioner Only – Week 4
I didn’t take a shower on sunday, but took it last night (monday) in stead.
Routine: Left the ‘dish on my hair for over 2 hours. I didn’t plan to do it that way, but that’s the way it happened. I didn’t do a second application, so it was just rinsing out the first one.
Results: My hair [...]

Conditioner Only – Week 3 – part 2
Routine: Put a bunch of Mane & Tail (M&T) on my hair, left it on for an hour, then rinsed it out. Applied a second application and rinsed that out.
Results: Really soft, silky hair! My hair is a slight (and I do mean slight) bit fly-away but it’s not that bad. My hair still doesn’t [...]

Conditioner Only – Week 2 – part 2

Conditioner Only – Week 2
Routine: Put a large amount of ‘dish on my hair for 45 minutes, then jumped in the shower and rinsed it out and did another application. I massaged that application around for a minute or two, then rinsed that out.
Results: The bulk of my hair is pretty soft, but the ends are still dry. I [...]
