I hope your nephew comes soon Eisani.

BM, I hope you feel better.

 

[natura87]

I want to try rollersetting my natural hair but I dont have setting lotion. Is it necessary? Can I substitute something else? If not what do you recommend?

 

[robot.]

So, remember I said I sent an email to the blackonyx site asking for ingredients? In the email, I explained that I didn't like humectants because it's the winter and I am protein-sensitive, so I wanted to know the ingredients. I said I was interested in the hair glosser, honey and sage treatment, and shea yogurt.

Guess what she said?

Of COURSE she can't share her ingredients, but she told me to pretty much avoid ALL the products I said I was interested in because they had either protein or humectants I might still try the glosser, but damn.

IDK if I'll order now. I hate "secret" ingredients because NOTHING is secret. In handmade products, most ingredients are commonplace. It's how you combine them that gives you a great or "new" product. Other stores share their ingredients without a problem and have no trouble keeping business. If she can't share her ingredients, then she must know her stuff can easily be whipped up by someone else and do I really want to spend my money on that?

 

[Charz]

^ She is wack

 

[natura87]

If you cant spill the ingredients I aint buyin. My money has better places to be.

And she had the nerve to put, "I look forward to your order." I'm like... you told me to avoid all the things I wanted to buy! And it took her two weeks to respond to my email and she didn't even really say anything. Next.

Thank you! My fever is gone thank God. I'm mostly just coughing now.

I never use a setting lotion. I just make sure I have enough leave-in conditioner and that my hair is wet. I keep a spray bottle full of water in case my hair dries out.

Ha! Keep your money! That's way too shady.

I personally hate setting lotion for rollersets, I prefer using a leave in conditioner. High shine, soft, touchable and the curls last.

 

[natura87]

How do I wrap my hair after the rollerset? i have never done this before. I am a noob when it comes to styling my hair.

 

[mkd]

Robot, I am not buying anything that doesn't list ALL the ingredients. Is she kidding me? Next...

Natura, I don't use setting lotion either. I usually use water and aphogee green tea and keratin but last week I used a creamy leave it, it made my hair heavy and kind of greasy do I guess that is a no no for me.

 

[chebaby]

i actually purchased the shea yogurt last night. why? because i wanted to see it in person and see if it does what its supposed to. im not knocking her but im not exspecting much because her site doesnt look that well put together on top of her having a ton of mistakes when it comes to the descriptions and stuff.. it looks unprofessional.

 

[chebaby]

ummmm tell me why i purchased kbb last night, late last night and my order shipped today.

 

[Charz]

Girl no, I was just frozen in shock. Furthermore, it was the hospital toilet and those automatic flushers probably would've sucked my whole forearm off to the elbow I literally was like

Girl I saw your status on facebook and I thought you had done it on purpose!

 

[Eisani]

Girl I saw your status on facebook and I thought you had done it on purpose!

Funny, my mom thought it was intentional She said "Well why didn;t you just cut the card up like a normal person?" I said "What?! I wasn't trying to flush my card down the toilet! Why would I do that?" She said, "I don't know, maybe to curb your spending. Don't look at me like that. You've done stranger things..." Wooow. I think mom thought I was tipsy or something

OMG! Although that would be a good way to curb spending...

I got mY LASik Surgery

It was painless, I was nervous, one eye is 20/25 the other isn't as good yet 20/60. They said it will get better when healed, I am just happy it is over. LOL.

It's a piece of cake. You'll be fine, I had mine done 2 years ago and I'm in my 40's still seeing well and at night.

 

[BrownBetty]

Hey ladies!

So my hair is doing better. I DC with kenra today and next week I will do the emergencee again.

I am so mad because I am almost done with some many products:

neutrogena clarifying poo - 5%
Aphogee green tea leave in - 5%
Bodfying mist - 5%
creme of nature poo - 5%

I have finished:
protein neutral filler
essation protein

 

[BrownBetty]

Ladies,

someone mentioned a semi perm color that they liked. I am looking to move away from henna. I want to go back to black or dark brown.

Also, where are folks getting there seamless combs? One of mine if broken.

Thx....

 

[natura87]

I tried roller setting my hair and I failed horribly. I couldn't even get one roller in, let alone my entire head. I think I need to try this again.

 

[BostonMaria]

JJamiah, congrats on the steamer!!! I know you waited forever.

Natura87, are you rollersetting on hair that is saturated with water? Because that really helps when you're trying to roll it around the roller. Are you using a rat tail comb?

It wasnt saturated but it was damp/wet. I think my problem is that it just kept slipping. I usually hate it when my hair is soaking wet but I dont want to use a flatiron and blowdryer to get my hair straight if I dont have to.
Yep, the rat tail comb came with the rollers.

 

[Shay72]

My Komaza has arrived safely at work. On Sunday I should be able to use all Komaza products so that would be great for trying things out.
