100% Natural Calcium Bentonite Clay

[Kinkerbelle]

Inspired by Morenae, I did a clay treatment/cleanse this morning.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

I mixed with water, to get a consistency to my liking (similar to sculpting clay), wet hair in the shower, then applied the clay in sections, focusing first on my scalp, second on the length of my hair.  Covered with a shower, let sit for about 20 minutes or so, then rinsed.

Results: clean, soft, defined hair unlike any I've had before.  I think I am in love.  No detectable scent.  I even had my DH take up close and personal sniffs to see if he could smell anything.

The clay did loosen my texture a tad, but I believe that will be temporary.

It gets 4 stars  - 1 star deducted because of the 15-20 minute rinsing process!

Girl, this AM, I wish I had some of that stuff vs. washing my hair with poo...I used a bunch of SLS poo and...let's just say it wasn't pretty. 

I'll probably try some.  Where'd you get it?

ETA:  I see morenae got it from Whole Foods....did you find it there as well?

[Kinkerbelle]

Yep.  Got it from Whole Foods as well.

Seriously ythinking of giving up the shampoo.  You know my hair ain't NEVA looked like that without product  .

Kinker your hair looks good as always. But what happened to the twists???

[Stretch]

Girl, they had to go.  They were cute, but just not my look.  To be honest, I got tired of them.

What are the benefits of using this product?

Cleansing.  The clay is supposed to draw out the impurities.  Worked well.  Clean hair that wasn't "stripped".

BTW Kink, not only is your hair the bomb, that kitchen is too!!

Thanks.  Girl, you gotta take what you can get in these overpriced, little @$$ NYC apartments!  My kitchen is great, but one of my bedrooms is the size of my closet in South Carolina.

Are both of those pics DRY with no product?  OMG...its so freaking shiny.  I'm about to go to whole foods NOW to get me some of this stuff...lol.

[Kinkerbelle]

NOT completely dry...I would say 75%.  I would post pics of dry hair, but I feel like my hair never really gets 100% dry.  Even by the time I go to bed, hair is still damp.  Wake up, looks like crap, b/c I slept on damp hair.

Great pics! Your hair looks awesome. I have to schedule in a "clay treatment" for myself this weekend.

I agree, the rinsing process is the most tedious aspect of this, but it's worth it. Although I do worry about clogging my plumbing with all the clay in the drain.
