The Baggying Method?

I was reading someone’s website article today and there were questions and comments about the baggying method. In case you have never heard of this method, it’s supposedly when an individual shampoo and conditions the hair. However, in the conditioning phase, a bag is placed over the hair and the conditioner is allowed to sit for a length of time before the conditioner is rinsed out.

2012 Baggy Challenge on Long Hair Care Forum

So I'm kind of thinking about doing this challenge. Im going to place the info of the challenge BELOW:

For those who dont know basically what the Baggy method/green house effect helps to promote hair growth by creating a natural warm steamy environment that enables the natural oils from your scalp to come out and help your hair grow...it's also great for dryness because of all the moisture produced. 

What you do is you wrap your head up in a scarf or cap (baggy) with a moisturizer or oil and leave it on for 1 hour to an overnight baggy!. 

The Greenhouse effect is a little different. 

GREEN HOUSE EFFECT

On damp or dry hair apply a generous amount of JBCO or EVOO throughout your hair (or how ever much you can tolerate) making sure to coat the ends in the oil to create a protective barrier against pollution, fabrics, dryness ect.

This regimen works well with various protective hairstyles such as bantu knot outs and braid outs, so once you’ve oiled your hair you can prep it accordingly depending on how you plan to style it the next day.

Place shower cap or plastic bag over your hair to lock in the moisture from your scalps natural oils and heat from your head. This creates a green house, steam effect during your sleep which is the best time for your hair growth in this case.

Place a head tie/scarf over your head & shower cap making sure that it’s nice and snug; for best results also wear a winter hat over your scarf to help produce more heat. In the morning you may find that your hair is a bit damp from the moisture the steam effect created.

You can either blow dry it on cool setting, let it air dry a bit (about 15 mins) before styling, or go ahead and style it while it’s still damp and let it dry as the day progresses.

* if you don't really care for the JBCO smell, you should definitely try the Shea Oil with Mango & Papaya it will make your hair smell amazing or you can simply use EVOO from your local grocery store, it's much cheaper!'

Sounds interesting right? Hmm might give it a tryyy.
