I normally wear two stranded twist for 3 to 4 weeks at a time.I add oils to keep my hair moisturized yet this time I am experience a dry, itchy scalp. I've purchased Carol's Daughter's Tui Leave-in Conditioner but no avail my hair still itches. Should I clarify or wash with my tried and true CURLS cleansing cream shampoo, which is a staple I've used prior to transitioning or should I use something that can detox all of th possible buildup. Thanks!Lohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10743668308640436877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-44872746255087835162010-11-11T07:39:49.564-08:002010-11-11T07:39:49.564-08:00Thank you so much.

Washed 2x w/ Suave daily clarifying, slept in a mixture of egg yolk and jojoba oil, washed w/ moisturizing shampoo, conditioned w/ Joico K-Pak, rinsed, spritzed w/ acv/spring water mix, added Shae butter, more Joico as leave-in and Kinky Curly Spiral Spritz. Whew! Long process but so worth the results!

Then that time in-between ur next wash day you are supposed to moisturize as needed with something light, like a spritz. How can it be "moisturizing" if the previous day u sealed your hair with an oil, which is acting as a barrier?Kenyanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-37067264440062419272010-09-14T12:40:56.103-07:002010-09-14T12:40:56.103-07:00cyssantana; No worries, here is what you should do...cyssantana; No worries, here is what you should do: <br />Shampoo + Condition + Leave-In + Oil = Extra luxe soft hair! <br /><br />@Rosie; You're welcome, thank you for spreading the word!<br /><br />@big Chop; It's a staple of mine too.

What is the order in plain words for me. Haha! I don't get it when they say because certain products lock moisture out we should put oil in our hair, but does it go first or after.

I've been getting into the bad habit of avoiding using shampoo and instead co-washing every other day. <br /><br />We all know that you need to do a good cleansing once a week or every other week. These are great tips. I'm going to give number 2 some thought.
