DO NOT Mix Your Clay Wash Too Thick!

👩‍🦰
When you're mixing your clay wash, you DO NOT want it to have the mud like consistency of a clay face mask. That was a mistake I made myself when I first started clay washing about eight years ago. The problem with thick clay washes is that it's very difficult to rinse them out of your hair, and it can be an overload of nourishment and minerals for your hair, potentially leave it feeling a bit over strengthened. And because it's difficult to rinse out when it's thick, it can leave a powdery sort of clay residue that can dry and leave your hair a bit stiff. So you want a very watery clay wash. A good place to start is to not go any more than one quarter cup of clay to two cups of liquid. And in fact, you could probably even start out with a bit more watery of a mixture than that. It's amazing at how potently cleansing this clay wash can be, even when it's very watery.
