[/QUOTE] ^That too. My hair prefers raw honey over glycerine as it's humectant of choice. I usually add raw honey and EVCO into my DT mix and my hair feels baby soft afterwards. (Pro Tip: slightly warm the honey so it doesn't get all sticky and gunky in your hair.) I swear, as soon as my hair sees anything w/ glycerine in it, it automatically gets dry and breaks off like no tomorrow.
[/QUOTE] I want to try this honey thing. What is DT? Did you mean DC, as in deep conditioner?

I keeps it super simple when it comes to dryness lol Clarify your hair Deep Condition (You can use heat if you want), then rinse it out 2 strand twists on wet/damp hair sealing with an oil such as EVOO Tie it up and leave it alone over night By the morning your hair should feel very soft

My hair loves dc/prepooing with honey. I use honey in henna/cassia mixes too.

Last night I clarified with butts bees grapefruit and sugar beet shampoo. I then conditioned with Suave humectress. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to do the honey DT but I did DC with the proclaim Argan oil overnight. Today I did a homemade steam treatment, rinsed the conditioner out, and did an oil rinse. Right now I'm waiting for my hair to dry but so far it seems to be no difference. I know my quest for moisturized hair may take time, but I'm so impatient and I don't see a positive ending in sight.
I guess one good thing that did come out of this is that I did chop. My heart was in my stomach but I did it lol!

For the ladies that suggested the honey...thanks you! My hair is done a 150 ( not 180 because it still needs a little work lol)! My hair is feeling much softer. I appreciate all of your help!
