That's good, T!! You've got some good stuff listed. You shouldn't have any problem getting rid of all of them.

And I know some of those are things you like so I'm glad to see you clearing them to reduce your stash. That's my issue. I never want to get rid of ANYTHING!

This is so ME...I'd rather use it up or give it away then to actually throw it away.

I was proud of myself for throwing away some things that have been in my stash for a few years. My mom would always give me her cast offs and I'd feel bad if I threw them away since that was "good" money

My hair is still soaking wet and I washed it hours ago. I swear my hair just retains moisture like a sponge. It feels like I just wet it.

I am organizing my stash this week to see what I know I will use up first, what will be sticking around and what I might want to give away.

can you use a box dye over henna?

I know some ppl have mentioned that the dye wouldn't take after henna. I know Eisani mentioned something about this Fall 09.

thanx vonnie. im not even sure i want to color(i want dark brown or black). im just tired of this color. i know i can indigo but id have to continue to do that. at least if i color i only have to do that once and then growing it out shouldnt be so bad since itll be dark like my hair.

Che, your hair color looks pretty in your avatar?

thanx mkd. in some lights it looks a nice brown and in others it just looks red/orange.

 

[mkd]

Ok, i feel you Che. Orange/red is not whats hot.

 

[Vonnieluvs08]

Maybe this will help. I just read this by HijabiFlygirl in the "2010 setbacks" thread

**henna. - I have a love hate with henna. I don't like the red anymore, but I don't want indigo black either - I've been experimenting with color, and I may just use cassia and katam and amla. It will def. have to be a deep brown, but because my base color is red, the henna brings it out every time. *le sigh*

 

[chebaby]

thanx vonnie. that does help. if i color i will still use ayurvedic powders, just not henna.
im reading spicedhoney blog which i used to read all the time. i remember she used to do henna, then colored a cute honey brown at aveda, then did a box color. so it can be done i guess but every ones hair is different.
i think i learned my lesson with color. henna is good for conditioning but not color after a while if you are like me and get bored fast.

Che. I think you'll like the Color Combo you'll get from doing your Henna/Indigo Mix. Just make sure you have the right Ratios.

For your "Brown" You may hafta' to 1/2 Henna 1/2 Indigo Mix Separately + Combine together = Wrap hair & let process.

yea i really need to think about which one i prefer to do. i have no idea right now. i would rather do henna and indigo because its natural and i wont have to wonder and play with chemicals.
but with the dye i only have to apply once and then let grow out. i want to get the color as close to my natural color as possible so i dont have to keep looking at 2 different colors.

[Vonnieluvs08]

Che- I think you should go the natural route since you were upset with how "chemicals" made your hair feel.

I didn't like the consistancy at first but it hardened up in my cabinet. Its really soothing with lavender and jasmine. Im glad i gave it a try.

Good evening ladies!

This morning I undid my BRBC twistout and my hair was superrrr soft all day! I think I luv this stuff more than the AOHC! BUT my hair was also sooo puffy and swollen! I looked like I had come out of the rain lol it was frizz city!
!

Yesss I love the BRBC and AOHC for refershing my twistouts in the morning because they make my hair sooo soft ... and I was wondering if they wud give sufficient hold to do the twists initially... thanks for this

has anyone tried Qhemets honeybush tea softgel? Imma try it anyways, but I just figured Id ask lol

My next product quests will be to find my staple natural/handmade twisting and DC (protein and moisture) products.

and Im mad a Qhemet and Oyin for being so good Ive unfortunately got leave in moisture down pat in one go

I hear you say you were just planning on Baggying "the ends'....Are you still going to try that or something else?

 

[La Colocha]

I hear you say you were just planning on Baggying "the ends'....Are you still going to try that or something else?

Yes i mean just the ends, i dampen my hair to moisturize but i will do my ends only in the baggy because i may go out again today. Since i got my detangling down with the paddle brush my roots are doing good so i will baby my ends.

morning ladies. The house is quite, the big man is gone and the kiddies are still sleeping. I am enjoying this slow coffee drinking morning in my "woman cave" chillaxing.

DC with Olive You too. I love the way it smells.
