this dry bush needs help
So we all have our vices, and one of mine is “color”. The problem is like with any process it can be damaging and drying to your hair, but I like it regardless. Yes, more grey strands are making their appearance now, but I have been highlighting my hair BG, (before grey) I just like it… So I have been reading about natural concoctions to remedy dryness and decided to try one today-
So this is what I mixed together plain whole milk yogurt, avocado oil and honey, I did not measure anything, just a big blob of yogurt, a generous pour of oil, and a big squeeze of honey.
yougurt, oil and honey mask
I mixed it all up and applied it to my hair in sections, combing each section out prior to applying the mixture.

Next put on a plastic cap in went into my “steam room/shower” (the best thing I installed when we did our bathroom remodel).

The cap…
note…see my malasma-I’m going to share some steps on how I am addressing that as well- freakin hormones take a toll on a girl.
So I steamed for about 30 minutes or so, then did some work and rinsed it out about an hour or so later using my devachan no poo, had to do it 2x, the mixture is thick and a little smelly ie. sour yogurt so I rinsed for a bit…feeling a little bad considering the drought.
all rinsed out no product
So my hair feels cleanse and moisturized so far, so now time to go back in and apply product, I have lots of stuff in my hair cabinet, always collecting new potions and lotions. So I decided since I am going out today I needed something that would give me a good “look” right away, no time for second day hair which is what I prefer. So I decide on devachan Heaven in hair which is a deep conditioner that I use as a leave in and the devachan gel.

I apply my products in the showered using big clips to separate as I apply the product to my hair as evenly as I can, adding extra to areas that feel need more product and less to others, it is something that I have learned after years of practice and bad hair days.

So far I like, I let it air dry for a couple hours while I did some work. Wow…I’m happy with the results and the cost…compared to my expensive conditioners. I will be doing this on a regular basis. Oh btw no filter no nada on these pics.

Happy Friday- I have a really busy weekend starting with this evening.
