Rice water as pre-poo
Let’s get back to my rice water pre-poo. I fermented the rice for a week, added lemon peels to curb the smell cos it stinks. Other than lemon, orange peels you can add essential oils(lavender, tea tree, rosemary)
Pre-poo process.
- Sieved rice water into a spray bottle
- Added shungi oil to the rice water
- Sprayed the rice water, a section at a time, finger detangled then twisted each section.
I didn’t wash my hair in twists as I do because I had to give my scalp thorough cleansing after 6 weeks of mini twists. After cleansing, my hair felt super dry. You would think I didn’t pre-poo. Side note, I didn’t use a clarifying shampoo.
Will I try pre-pooing with rice water again? Am not sure, simply because I didn’t like the “dry hair” feel after cleansing, the moisturizing deep conditioner restored the moisture though.
