Here's what I did: Baking Soda - Cowash - Clay - Leave-In - Gel
My Clay mix contained eucalyptus oil today and it tingled on my scalp. Nice!
Things went well and I spent a lot of time focusing on still-frizzy bits.
Baking soda step.

Clay Stage (worked superhard to coat as many strands with clay).
Product-free hair.
Hair with Leave-In and Gel.

So far, no setbacks. I didn't notice improved definition at the clay stage. But, I did notice that when I washed my hair there were no straight bits and the coils were prominent to the touch.
Will wash tomorrow evening and maybe do an overnight DC with jojoba oil on my scalp.
