I have heard a lot of about co-washing and decided I would do some research on it before I tried it. Co-Washing is where you "wash" your hair by just using conditioner and not using a shampoo first. There are mixed reviews out there and Atlanta Natural Hair Care says the following:
Pro’s of co-washing:
Can add moisture to dry hair
Can help the hair detangle more easily
Con’s of co-washing:
Will not cleanse the hair
Will not cleanse the scalp
Can cause buildup in the hair and scalp
I would tend to agree with these. The purpose in shampooing the hair to get the build up off your hair and to clease your hair of all the products you have put on your hair. It seems that your hair cant truly grow if your scalp is dirty and unable to breathe. Other blogs have talked about it adding moisture to dry hair but they still washed once a week. Every head is different so I am going to try co-washing and see what happens and see what type of growth i get out of it. Some of the tips i received were from curlynikki.com which one of the websites i get ideas from. What are your thoughts on co-washing and what do you use to co-wash your hair?
Peace Love and Hair
