I am so happy to have found this site. It is as if a new world has opened to me. I have been natural for about 5 years now and found that I was making some mistakes as my hair grew a lot and then became very dry and shedded like crazy. I am now following some of the regimen and products on this site and am very pleased as I no longer feel like I have to hide my hair as it has come to life. I remember growing up as my mother taught me how to do hair as she had learned, pin curls, paperbag curls, bantu, twists and waves. The use of natural and home product, but during the perm era I truly had forgotten how to nurture my hair. I just want to thank you this site. My twist are the strangest but cutest as they sort of stand straight and spike a bit and people refer to the style as a sexy wild look. I hope to be able to share a picture in hopes someone can tell if this is how it is suppose to look. Again my gratitude to all contributors to this site.

Sorry I put this initially in the wrong place so sorry if this a dupl.

darkborwnquit, this has never caused me an unusual amount of buildup. You should just do it as often as your hair needs it, some people may need it less than others. I usually do mine before each DC.

Cowashes can create buildup, especially if you’re using certain ingredients (in my experience). Again, how often you cowash is on an individual basis. People who have TWAs can often cowash everyday.

I need to know how often should the oil rinse be done or pre poo. Also, wouldn’t this create a lot of build up on the hair.

Would co washes create a lot a build up on the hair. And how often should one co wash?

Just A Girl, you don’t have to apply heat for an oil rinse. Also I think some people do hot oil treatments before shampooing or as the last thing they do to their hair before styling.

Is this method the same concept as a hot oil treatment? If not, what’s the difference?
