Just Horsing Around…

well not quite.

As you may already know, I take horseback riding lessons once a week.  I love taking lessons but I realizes last week that the helmet, low ponytail and humidity are taking a toll on my hair.  Specifically, the humidity causes my hair to revert back being to curly and I started getting knots on the ends of my hair.  To mitigate any future damage, I started wearing a low bun secured with my claw clips.  Also, I’ve decided to try co-washing after my riding lesson.

Today was my first day co-washing and so far so good.  It took me only 1 hour detangle, braids, co-wash, shower, apply leave-in and re-braid.  Co-washing or conditioner only washing is a great option for if you exercise or prefer to limit your use of shampoo.  I used Tressemme Moisture Rich Conditioner for my co-wash.  My regular conditioner is a deep conditioner, so co-washing would not be the best way to use it.
