What are you mixing your henna with? After I stopped mixing with lemon juice, orange juice or anything acidic, my henna treatments are much, much better as far as non-drying.

@JGT318 I used water the 1st time. and green tea the second yome. I wonder if its the type of henna

[JGT318]

@ocimak Add olive oil and your heavy conditioner to your henna mix. I do that now and my hair doesn't even feel like it's been henna'd when I was it out, in the sense that it's not at all dry and crispy like it used to be when I didn't add anything to it.

@JGT318 huh!!!! im going to try that. thanks

Do henna treatments loosen up curls???

[ocimak]

@sholanaturale I've heard that they do. CurlyNikki says it does. I personally dont know that to be true.

@TraceTrace25 I'm the same way with the product as a daily moisturizer. I LOVE IT! After washing...not so much.

@ocimak i doubt it's your application. my hair is crazy. you might have to add your favorite oil/glycerin to a product. before i went on the no petro-mineral oil kick, i used black and sassy leave-in w/ olive oil. i always use shea butter after applying leave-in at least 2-3 times/day. my hair is at it's softest whenever i have 2 strand twist but of couse it doesn't last so i wear hats almost every day. :( i sacafice style in order to to keep the dryness away. the quest continues.

Have you tried using the Sweet Ambrosia as a daily moisturizer? For me it doesn't work as a leave in after I wash I need something heavier but when I use it as a daily moisturizer I love it!!!!! =)

[ocimak]

@BlakIzBeautyful Thanks. lol. You are right. I am happy. I was just nitpicking.

@junbug501 For some reason the Giovanni doesnt work for me. It is the least effective btwn the 3 for me. Trying to get rid of it actually. from the many times Ive used it, it wasnt it. Maybe it's my application?
