Hi Yazy,Cheryl, who posts to this board, has had great luck softening and conditioning her hair with Aveda's Curressence conditioner. So have I.Cheryl has invented a really great procedure where she slathers the Curressence on her hair and then wraps it in a warm towel and lets the Curressence penetrate her hair for several hours.I have personally left Curressence on my hair with a shower cap for about 3 hours and was amazed at how much softer it was.Another idea would be to use Aveda's Deep Conditioner and leave it on in the shower for several minutes. A good hot olive oil treatment would also help soften the hair shaft.A good treatment would be to take some warm, but not hot, extra virgin olive oil, add a few drops (2-4) of rosemary oil or lavendar (which is great for dry or stiff hair) and massage into your scalp and hair. Cover with a shower cap and leave on for several hours. Shampoo with a mild formula and be sure to do a final cold water rinse.Another dry hair conditioner is a Mayonnaise Hair Pack.After your hair is first wet with warm water (to open the hair shaft) apply some real mayo (Hellmans is good) to your scalp and work it into a circular motion. Massage the mayo into the hair shaft and the ends. Cover your hair with a plastic bag and allow the mayo to stay on the scalp for at least 1 hour. Shampoo as you normally would. Repeat weekly if appropriate.Regards,Karen> Hey! I was wondering if anyone could tell> me what to use for my hair. One side is completely> stiff. Even after I get a relaxer it's partially> stiff.
