I've been stretching for about three months now but it feels more like six since my last relaxer reverted a week later! Anyway, I'm realizing that my hair feels much better without the use of shampoo. Co-washing leaves my new growth soft and supple, while shampooing and then conditioning leaves it a little dry. So, for the next few months, I will test out the "no-shampoo" method. I will only use cleansing creams, conditioners, and water & baking soda. I'll keep you guys updated on how my hair turns out! And if anyone cares to join me for this experiment, here's a list of alternate cleansers:
- CURLS™ Curlicious Curls Cleansing Cream
(review coming soon!) - Aubrey Organics Island Naturals Shampoo
(has no sulfates so I'm using it too) - Hair Rules™ Daily Cleansing Cream Moisture-Rich No-Suds Shampoo
- Any conditioner of your choice with a dash of baking soda

ahhhhhhhhhhh...i don't like AO's shampoos. they tend to leave my hair feeling too clean, and i end up with many tanglesssss...i've heard the white camellia shampoo (yellow label as well, smoothing properties) isn't so bad though. i've also heard it detangles well. i think you should make an exchange. eheh

curls products are amazing! the cleansing cream is a nice product. my new co-wash is aussie cleanse and mend conditoner. if you put some lemon into your conditoner, it helps the cleasing process.

Hey! Maybe you should check this out. I reviewed Dr. Bronner's on my blog, which I found to be really great. A possible blog idea; perhaps you could review it yourself! It can be found at Target and online.
- Anywho, awesome posts!
