At home beauty day and an ultra cheap deep conditioner!

Ahhhhhh, a day off with nothing on the agenda.  Right now it is just the dogs and I lounging on the couch.  I've decided to take this day to relax and pamper myself a bit.  Right now, I have a great deep conditioning pack in my hair.  I have used this conditoner a couple of times already and really like the results.  It is an Olive Oil conditioning pack, available at walmart and drug stores and can be found in the ethnic hair section.  It costs just a little over a dollar for the pack, and I can easily get 2 uses out of it.  Here is a pic:


It smells like citrus fruits and is very thick and creamy.  What I do is wet my hair squeeze out extra moisture, then apply a generous amount of this stuff and comb it through with my fingers.  I put on a shower cap and let it sit for 45 to an hour and rinse really well.  Sometimes, I like to put this on and sit in the sauna over at my parent's house to really let the heat work it in.  Here is a pic of me, with ACK! no makeup, letting the product do it's magic.  He he, sorry for the silly face!  The dogs are laughing at me too.




I find that my hair looks a bit greasy afterwards, so I generally do this on a day off when I have nothing else to do.  After a shampooing the next day, my hair looks shiney and soft.... its moisturized and i have less flyaway hairs and more manageability. 

So what is next on the agenda??  I wish I had some kind of facial masque to apply.  My nails do need serious attention, and later on perhaps some makeup fun!  I have 2 packages en route to me, hopefully they'll come today and I can play! 

What do you all use for deep conditioning?
