Overnight Experiment

HairAddict — Wed, 07 Jun 2017 00:43:09 GMT

I used a quarter size of remoist mixed with a quarter size of 613 and left it on overnight. This morning, I got up and rinsed it out and had a FABULOUS hair day! I think this works better for me than straight up remoist overnight. Anyone ever try this?

@HairAddict, I use remoist with my leave in and usually mix my remoist with 319 for treatment. I'm glad you were really happy with the results!

Cool! I've never tried that, but I will this weekend!

Remoist truly is absolutely wonderful product. Since I not always find time to do an overnight re-moist treatment, I must remember to mix some of it with leave-in more on a regular basis.

I think it's recommened to use some cleansing conditioner of choice as a primer before applying the remoist and 613 would be REALLY great! No wonder your results were amazing! Great idea!

I prime with a CC then put in the remoist for an overnight. Sometimes I overnight in straight 613.

Regarding priming with CC...what should be the ratio of CC to Remoist, i.e, how many pumps of CC?

@SurferWife I'd like to know what others do about that too

I normally do my remoist straight, but today I added a little more CC than I'd usually do for a leave in as a prime & then did my normal amount of remoist. I will say my leave in is very small, only about a dime size, cuz my hair is not long but not real short anymore

@FleaMktQn I'm trying to remember if I recall Chaz mentioning in the past how much CC to use as a primer and I think (mind you, this may be totally inaccurate), he may have mentioned to use half the amount you would use for your first cleanse. For example I normally use 8 pumps from a 32oz. bottle for my first cleanse, so I would use 4 pumps as a primer, then apply Remoist. Unless someone else says differently, that may be the ratio I use this weekend. I'll post my results.

@HairAddict - Great you got some amazing results! Did you cleanse after this? I've never used Remoist. I'm really not sure how to use it. I do have some, and I'd like to try your system. For a long time, I used just the cleansing conditioner, the styling cream, and the mousse. Now I'm using the oils - one overnight treatment a week. Do you or anyone else have any recommendations on how often I should use the Remoist?

@SurferWife @FleaMktQn I probably would be at 3-4 pumps in that scenario too. Just enough to coat the hair. with a couple splashes, that amount of CC seems to help the remoist distribute more easily.

I did not cleanse the next morning. I just rinsed extra well in the shower and proceeded as normal. Loved it and will have to do this again soon!
