People worrying about lightening--oy.

Inspired by Cinnamon hair, I use it in the same ways--as a leave-in (mixed with others because I have hard-to-deal-with hair), in deep treatments, etc, etc. I've had great success with it as a moisturizer, and it makes all the other products I use better.  And I mean all of them.
Some people complain about residue from it, but I haven't had any. Also, I have dyed streaks in the front of my hair, and the honey hasn't touched them mixed in other things. I have done honey lightening to great effect on dyed and natural hair, so I know the reason for worry--but mixed with other stuff, the peroxide isn't released. But heck, I'd use it even if it did lighten, so whatever. xD

I love honey. I use it in multiple ways -- in my CO washes, deep conditioner, scalp, leave in, and even as a facial for my skin. It adds moisture to my hair and makes it shine, which is more than worth it considering the price/availability. I definitely recommend others to try it.

Super-moisturizing!! Makes my hair softer as well.

I worry about lightening, but haven't experienced any yet.

I got started on honey when I learned about SMTs. Pretty soon I was adding it to conditioner at every wash and occasionally adding a bit to my henna mixes, as well.
Lately I've started applying it straight: I wet my hair and apply cone-free conditioner roots to tips, then shampoo (SLS) scalp only and rinse. Then I apply pure honey to my length and leave it on for a bit. Finally, I apply more conditioner, work it through well, and rinse.
This seems to give my hair plenty of moisture, and it also leaves a lovely shine. Wonderful stuff!!!

I am a big honey nut (as well as other natural bee products, although those are much too pricey for hair). For my skin honey works wonders, for the hair I love using with conditioner for a deep treatment.

scared about it lightening my colour

Absolutely LOVE honey- since I have been using it as an overnight treatment my hair is soft and shiny, curls are well defined and my hair seems to be less frizzy and out of control but not greasy or weighed down. I do worry about it lightening my hair colour so wont be using it too often. Overall a fab treatment and well worth a go.
