You like the Suave Daily Moisture S & C? I just bought some today - the ingredients looked pretty gentle. Hope it works as well for me as it seems to be for you.

Today for hair. Last night slept with two braids. Not side by side but one on top of eachother. The only I can make the layers behave. Not at all attractive, good think DH worked. I did oil prior to braiding. I braided the front of my hair in two french braids and then married them in the middle to a regular braid. Not easy to marry two braids. The rest just hung there. I looked pretty cute I guess.

I'll CO tomorrow just to get rid of the waves.

Hair:

Last night I oiled and slept with my hair down. I CO this morning with combination of Suave Bio Basics and Suave DAily Mositure conditioners. I then oiled again as it was drying. I feel sticky. I must have concentrated my conditioner right on the back of my head instead of just below. Yuck! I will have to shampoo, tomorrow if not tonight. I need to be more careful of my conditioner application! Embarrassed

One way to combat your problem would be to really rinse you hair well. Me, I sit in the shower and chant mantra's as my hair is rinsing I do this for about 10 minutes or so. 8)

So, I go to take a shower and the stupid water heater's pilot light blew out....no hot water....thus, no shower. Yuck. Oh well, there's always tonight or tomorrow. Other than that....nothing going on.

Ok, it's 3:10 in the afternnon and I still haven't shampooed my icky hair. Went to the gym so I figured I wait until after that. It's so icky it's sticky.

I did purchase Suave Daily Clarifying. Hope it helps. That along with the vinegar rinse it should be ok. Too bad the only bottle of the stuff they have is the huge one. Should last like forever.

I also purchased a jaw clip for thick hair. Hope I can do something with it.

Ok, gotta go shower. I'll check back later!

I used Suave Daily clarifying all over. Then I used a very diluted ACV rinse. I then used some conditioner my sister sent a sample of....Lancome Shine Vitality. I'm sure it's full of cones. Any way.......I'll oil when my hair is nearly dry. Yes. I feel human again!

Hi, NancyN28! If you need a good clip for thick hair, my favorite is a pike clip that I get from Louise Marie Longhairs.

http://www.hairgasm.com/magicpacks_kits/mp_orders/cat79_1.htm

I just ordered a second one today. My hair's around 21" long and thick enough that I use the large size. Now I can use 2 to control all this wavy hair!!

Have a great night!

Oh yeah, I meant to mention this to you before...
when you're making piggy braids for sleeping, try starting the braid about and inch below your ears, braid all the way to the end leaving maybe and inch of tail. Tie it off and keep the braids in front of your body as you sleep. This works super well for me. Good Luck and don't give up!!!

Today with my hair I did basically nothing!

I went to the gym to do cardio today, so I did have a pony tail in for that but other than that.....it's just down.

I did sleep with the piggy braids though. Wink

My hair must not have been completely dry from my earlier shower because I did have quite a few unexpected waves, but not as if I had braided for waves.

Ok, that's it for now. I hope everyone is doing well.

Hooray for piggy braids!!!

To use the clip, I either gather all my hair low or in the middle and twist it up like for a French twist. Then I squeeze open the beak 1/2 -3/4 of an inch and a)slide the beak close to my scalp down the side my other hand is holding to my head or b) I take it below the poofy top part and slide the beak across the hair again with the underside close to my scalp. I'm at the point where I need a second one 'cause one won't control all of my hair, and I'm only at 21" so you may need a few!

Good luck!! My bellydance teacher says the student that struggles the most, learns the best so keep practicing your hairdos!!!
