POTENTIAL NEW PRODUCT

ORS Olive Oil Replenishing Conditioner.

I currently use the pak (1.75 oz) which costs $1.22 at Safeway and I think it has the right balance of protein and moisturizer for my hair, particularly in the winter. Additionally, it allows me to skip an entire process, as I used to dc with protein and then moisturizing con.

It seems to be available for about $12 (12.25 oz) so I'll look to buy it when I run out of paks. There is also a larger bottle (23 oz)

HAIR LENGTH UPDATE

Seems I need about 1.5 to 2 more inches to graze APL. I don't like how long it is taking me to get to APL. At this rate, I will not be fully APL until August/September 2010. =(

IT'S BEEN A WHILE...

I didn't wash my hair for 3 weeks! And when I did I used the ORS Olive Oil Replenishing pak (45 minutes deep condition) and it left my hair super soft. However, I used my Keracare foaming wrap lotion and followed up with my moisture mix to horrendous results. I ended up with a sticky film in my hair but it seemed to evaporate each time I went outside and that cold air whipped my hair.

Anyway, as of today, my hair feels great! I have been moisturizing since Wednesday and sealing with my grapeseed/olive/castor oil mix and that seems to work. I will likely wash my hair again on Monday. I need to dust my ends though because in the last few weeks, I haven't hidden them as I should.
