jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Di, I put Shea Butter on my hair yesterday afternoon. I'm gonna wash it in a few minutes. I'll let you know how it goes. yonuh, I ran around trying to find Desert Essence/Green Apple and Ginger shampoo yesterday. Could not. So I bought Burt's Bees' volumizing shampoo instead. I do have some Desert Essence JoJoba Oil; but I got it in the city and will have to go back there to get the shampoo. It's at a natural food store where Groovy works. So I'll go with her and get some or order some on-line. The weather here is bad, so it'll be a while before I get it. Will let you know how that works, when I am able to try it. Thanks again, ladies!

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Well I washed it after leaving the Shea's on for a few hours. It feels better and I'll keep trying until it does what I want. I really need more body, somehow. You gals are the best!!!

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Because of the weather, think I'm gonna ask Groovy to bring me some of that Desert Essence Green Apple and Ginger Shampoo. I'll let you know how it works on my hair, yonuh. Thanks for the heads up!!! LOL...

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	yonuh, Groovy did buy me some Desert Essence shampoo and conditioner, the flavor you like. I've used it once and do like my hair better since using that product. Thanks for the input. Di, How many times do you think I should coat my hair with Shea's? I mean, weekly, or once a month, or continuously? What say U? _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	Originally Posted By: jabber Di, How many times do you think I should coat my hair with Shea's? I mean, weekly, or once a month, or continuously? What say U? I use Shea Butter (as a moisturizer) instead of any kind of "conditioners". Reason being, conditioners are the same as fabric softeners: they coat the hair with WAX, which causes the hair not to have static. I have not used conditioners on my hair in 10 years. So, regarding using the Shea, try it once, then add it twice a week. I will not harm so I imagine you could use it every day! Let us know how it does for ya! _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Di, So you're saying use the shampoo and then leave the Shea's in or rinse it out like the conditioner? I wash my hair once a week, generally. yonuh, I do like the way Desert Essence leaves my hair. It's more manageable and seems to have better texture. Thank you for weighing in on this thread. I appreciate you, Di and Groovy's help. _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Di, I put a bit of Shea's in my hair yesterday. I brushed it through and left it in. I like it. It feels and looks thicker, and I'm getting the effect I've been looking for. Have been working on my hair for sometimes now. PL suggested a product line which I tried for more than a year. But between the Desert Essence and the Shea's, I think I've found the answer. Again thank you so much for your sage advice. I truly appreciate you! _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	Oh wonderful Jabber! The shea butter puts "fluff" back into hair without the static..and the "droopies" that conditioners add. Can we see a pic of the "new you"?? _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!

Di Member Registered: 11/15/05 Posts: 2798 Loc: NM, transplant from NJ	Sorry did not see your other query. YOu put the Shea Butter BEFORE you shampoo, like a day before...then shampoo/rinse. It acts as a moisturizing treatment prior to shampooing. _________________________ Southwest Body Gear here ~ NEWLY updated website with many new products!
