applying shampoo before water, eh?.... helps oil rinse out better,
eh?... i'll have to give that a try. thanks for the tip! oh, and
speaking of coconut, you can actually use coconut milk as a delicious
conditioning treatment for your hair, and adding honey to your
conditioner adds shine and softness to your hair. (don't worry, it's
easy to rinse out if you use less honey than conditioner 60/40
ratio. also, mix it in your hand, not the bottle as it will separate
and not work out very well. also, i think Avalon (also available in
natural stores) shampoo and conditioners are best because they are
70% organic and free of harmful sodium-, and sulfur-everythings.
hope this helps.
p.s. my chemical dyes were "renowned", too. i used to only go to
aveda so that i could dye my hair 'healthily' ha. henna's the way to
go for me.
: I have naturally thick hair, but hold on... let me tell you what
: happened when I started using chemical dyes (good 'renowned'
: brands). Each time I washed my hair after a dye job, it used to
fall
: out in... aaaarghhh I can't even use the word. Using coconut oil
: perhaps helped me through.
: But when I switched back to using henna ( thanks to this site that
: gave me ways to achieve the colour I wanted),not only did my hair
get
: back its former texture, but also no more hair loss, except the
usual
: little which is perfectly natural.
: Using coconut hair oil twice weekly has helped me too.As I had
: mentioned earlier gently massaging the shampoo in for a minute and
: then washing it off with hot water that is not scalding helps take
: out much of the oil.
: Hope this helps.
