Washed with SLS-free, preservative-free, everything-free shampoo from Neals Yard.

Conditioned with Tresemme Naturals.

Used AOHR with manuka honey as leave-in.

Pantene curls mousse with Umbert Giannini gel over the top. A good scrunch, a small plop and HEY PRESTO!

My curls were back.

Not only back, I’m on 4th day hair woo hoo…..

Just need to achieve this now without the shop bought stuff.

HAPPY!

Since my last post I’ve had continually ‘successful’ curls. I can’t help wonder if the reason is because I’ve been using shampoo. OK, I know it’s ‘good’ shampoo, but I feel so ashamed!

Went on our first caravanning excursion last weekend, the shower in it is powerful enough for me to wash my mop of hair. Yay!

New favourite is mixing Body Shop cotton seed curl stuff with honey. Awesome curls that last several days.

Hi Janey, is the bodyshop stuff CG, not tried this one. Also how do you mix with honey, guessing just a bit of spray in hands with dab of honey? I dunno though.

Yes, appears to be CG - I’ve used it on and off for a few years now, it works really well under FSG. 

I use about a teaspoon of honey, and then when there’s enough space in the bottle I actually squirt the honey into the bottle and give it a good shake. I don’t use a leave-in when I use this.

Don’t feel bad about using shampoo, not every one gets good results with co washing LOL!  If you have hard water, this could be a reason, as stuff builds up on your hair.

At the end of the day, as long as your hair is looking good and isn’t damaged, that is all that matters!
