Dryish ends?

kimmyc · 08-28-2005, 04:22 PM

What do you do if your ends look or feel a litte dry? Just wondering, thanks!

anytime my hair feels like that, i do a deep treatment with elucence and honey, put a plastic baggie over my head, tie a tshirt around it, and go to bed with it on.
next morning when i wake up, i rinse, and my ends are usually happy again!

and if all else fails, i get a trim!
hope that helps!

You have the Jessicurl oil blend for softer hair right? Have you tried that? Otherwise I would leave some dt just on the ends overnight, or some avocado oil.

I think CurlyBrunette's Shea It Ain't So leave-in would be go for this too. I keep forgetting I have some!

Thanks itsjustmeghan and lush. I wasn't that clear. I meant during 2nd or 3rd day hair when the ends are dry looking and a little frazzled. What do you guys do then?

oh! hehehe
i can't do 3rd day hair, but on my 2nd day hair i spritz my hair with water & elucence mixed (fresh that morning). it seems to help revitalize my curls, and take care of those dry/scraggley ends!

i hope that helps!!!

meghan's got a good idea! otherwise (wrote this in the 2b thread as well), i'd still try a little CB's leave-in on those ends, or some Karite Nut Curl Milk (shea butter as an ingred.).

Thanks curly girls!

I'll have to try meghans idea and the CB shea leave-in to see which I like better. Maybe I'll order some Karite Nut Curl Milk on my next order.

For 2nd or 3rd day dry ends, I put just a little dab of Jessicurl Aloeba on them. It works really well! Oh, and Kimmyc, I LOVE your hair. My 3a does more of the big shirley temple ringlet thing, and I'm always finger combing it our so that it looks like yours! the color is awesome too.

I've been using 100% African Shea Butter that I bought in a store in Cape Cod. Love It! I bought a huge tub!

Thank you all for the helpful tips. And thanks for the compliment moisturemaniac!! I really think I'm more of a 2b but I'm a 3a at heart so I post in both places.
