I just got out of the shower and decided to remoist. It’s only lunchtime in my time zone, so I don’t plan to remoist overnight. If it were later in the evening I would. I’ve never done a mid-day remoist, so I’m curious for those of you who do, how long do you leave it in? I know Chaz says ~45 minutes, but how long do y’all leave it in?

Re: How Long do you Re-Moist?

Well, I always go overnight, but if you don't want to go that long, I'd just rinse it out before bed, then put in styling creme, etc., and let it air dry overnight, then style in the morning.  I'd say the longer, the better, generally speaking.

Re: How Long do you Re-Moist?

@SurferWife  I very seldom re-moist overnight. I usually will rinse it out after an hour but have left it in for a couple hours. I really can't tell much difference when I leave it in longer than an hour. For me it seems a little easier to rinse out if I don't let my hair get completely dry.

Re: How Long do you Re-Moist?

Thanks @FleaMktQn & @CamilleP! It’s been 1 hour now so I think I’m going to rinse & see if I notice a difference between 1 hour vs. overnight.

Re: How Long do you Re-Moist?

@FleaMktQn...I rinsed then followed with my normal styling products. I air-dry and it’s still a wee bit damp, but dry enough to judge. It feels just as soft & hydrated after a one-hour remoist session as it does after an over-night one. Truthfully, I’m not crazy about over-night Treatment because my scalp gets itchy. However, now that I have determined a one-hour session works just as great (without the itchiness), I will use it this way from now on.  I do use it daily as my leave-in, too and love using it this way.

@SurferWife   That's great to hear Woman Happy

I've recently been mixing about a half teaspoon of re-moist with a dime size amount of CC for my leave in and that's been working very well for me.

Re: How Long do you Re-Moist?

I agree with @FleaMktQn.  I think I've only ever done an overnight re-moist treatment once or twice. I have an oily scalp so if I cleanse and re-moist at night, by the time I have to rinse it out my scalp is starting to get oily again so it's kind of pointless for me to leave it in overnight. I'm not very good when it comes to remembering to use the re-moist so it mostly sits in my cabinet but if I finally do remember to use it, I'll leave it in for about an hour. Sometimes I just add some to my second cleanse.

@HSB1204  My scalp is oily too, and when I re-moisted overnight I always felt like I still needed to cleanse the next morning to get it all out. And like @SurferWife my scalp could get a little itchy doing it overnight. My hair could feel kinda crispy too.

Re: How Long do you Re-Moist?

I agree with you @FleaMktQn...I much prefer the overnight oil treatment. To me that feels like a real moisture treatment.
