Thanks so much for posting the other day about dissolving your shampoo in a cup and pouring it on. I did this with three products today in a big wash - shampoo, conditioner and deep conditioning treatment, and it was a huge sucess! Altho it makes for more work, I believe it was much easier on the hair, and even more effective, since the product got carried evenly all over the hair. As long as I have the time to do it, I definately will continue washing this way.
Thanks for another change in my haircare life!
