It was great, I'm going out with him again tonight. He's like me as a white guy. ratchet as ever. screw the opposites ish, I need someone like me.
 
My favorite phrase. Any tips? What's your routine like when doing wash 'n gos and maintaining tangle-free hair? How often do you go in between styling sessions?

I have yet to master those because once I go to sleep, its usually a wrap.:nono: Where are you getting tangles, at the root or the ends? Sometimes my wash n gos last a good few days w/o tangles depending on what conditioner i use, but protein is vital. For example, I had one last a week and after pooing w/a clarifying poo, i used ssi fortifying masque (protein), detangled, rinsed and did a quick rinse with EMB. I used emb as a leave in on soaking wet hair and applied a bit of Donna Marie coco curl creme in sections. I swished my head back and forth very quickly under the water then plopped. Light, bouncy, well-defined AND tangle free all week! The thing is, its always hit or miss for me.

ETA I refuse to go beyond a few days between styling sessions unless my hair is in good shape, but i check regularly for tangles. If I feel any, Im detangling, washing and restyling. Im tenderheaded, and I want boo to be able to touch my scalp :lol:

Yeah, I can't sleep with my hair out or else it's a wrap for me too. I made that mistake on Saturday night :nono: and my ends had gotten tangled. Usually if I bun my hair (twisting my hair around itself into a bun) before bed, then it'll be okay. But constantly laying on my hair in the wash 'n go style causes tangles for me.

I was detangling with the Jumbo Rake comb whenever I co-washed. I also didn't remove any shed hairs during this time either. I attempted to in the shower once w/ a detangling comb, but the water was about to get cold so I quit.
 
I've also noticed that I don't dc as often as I should when on a strictly wash 'n go regimen. I just co-wash. I'm gonna up my dc-ing in the warmer months when wearing them more often.

Wow what a coincidence! I was just looking this up about tangles and wash n gos because I don't like spending the time on twists/braids, but I hate tangles, and wash n gos = shrinkage = tangles. I'm sure I could also get less tangles if I applied my product in smaller sections (I usually just do two) but I'm lazy....sigh.
 
i used up a jar of kbb mask today. after i rinsed out the henna today with vo5(found a bottle) i dried in a towel and went back to bed. later on i realized i still had some left in my hair so i re conditioned with kbb mask and a little pumpkin conditioner to detangle. i love the way henna makes my hair feel. like the most beautiful protein treat ever. the funny thing is i was always worried about henna loosening my hair but henna gives my hair major texture.
my wash and goes have been looking a mess lately because the front of my hair has been so stringy. but today the front of my hair was very wavy/curly like its supposed to be.
the only henna i have left is 2 boxes of jamila but i dont like jamila. plus it doesnt say BAQ on the boxes.
 
I'm 3c/4a. Generally after washing I do an elastic-free bun or I twist until it dries then take them down. I wear more wash n gos during the warmer months, but I just try to stay tangle-free. Im low maintenance on the hair tip. Sorry, does that even answer your question?

Yes, appreciated! Most of products been leaving my hair crunchy or waxy.
I usually bun too, but I'm trying to catch me a man, let them see cougar with different spin:lachen::lol:
 
Evening Ladies.....I got my HTN Haul today (haven't opened it yet). Just did my little HTN Regi. Will seal with HTN Oil a little later.:lick:

Looked at the BFH "Sweet Steals" had some stuff in a cart, but not really sure if I will get anything.:ohwell:
 
Got quiet early, huh?
Just stopping in to say Hi...about to start doing my hair right now. I'm about to check the stash, see if there's anything I can use up.

Yes, I did get a 'few' things from BFH.....
 
hey B
i need to shampoo my hair tonight or tomorrow to get the red tint of my forehead lmao. i didnt even realize it was there but it looks like im glowing:lachen:
if i shampoo tonight i might do a braid out.
 
What did you get Brownie?

Well, the diffusing is ok for me. Not something I will be doing regularly. It made my hair dry. I made an appt to get my hair cut Saturday. I am really excited.
 
My KBB Mask from BGLH Marketplace came in today. Since I just washed/dc'd my hair yesterday, I'll try out the mask next week.

Yesterday when I dc'd after my ApHogee treatment I used SSI Banana Brulee. That conditioner is so thick. I'm realizing that I don't have to use too much or be heavy handed with it cause it seems so concentrated.
 
Speaking of SSI Banana Brulee, I got a nice 16 ounce Jar on a "Swap" w @Hannan
It's the Lavender one. I didn't even know BB came in Lavender?

Anyway, I may use it on Saturday. I haven't had SSI BB in a while. So, it will be a nice treat.:lick:

I'll go ahead and post my F&F Code in the Vendor thread. Doesn't seem like anyone was overly impressed.:ohwell: *except @Brownie518:lol:

T, I may order from BFH soon. I am not really feeling my hair right now. Maybe after I cut it I will get excited again.

I'm going to try shampooing 2x a week and see how that works out. I shampooed with some Burt's Bees Soy blah blah something. It kinda smelled like apple juice. :ohwell:

I dc'ed with a sample of Komaza Intensive Moisture and that stuff is thiiiiiiick. Loved it! Glad it came in 4 oz. Can get two uses outta that thing!

Now I'm just chillin in 2 pocahantas braids with CJ smoothing lotion and grapeseed oil. Very smooth. :yep:

:giggle:....I was planning to order anyway :look:. I got the stuff I had planned to get and a couple of the deals. :yep:

I'm sitting here now with conditioner on my head. I wanted to use up this last bit of SE Mayo.I added some Methi Step 1 since the Mayo was almost done. I'll also finish an HV pH Rinse and 2 BFH conditioners - Shea Mango and Shea Almond. :yep: I gave my sister a Shea Mango and a Shea Almond conditioner, plus some Moist 24/7.

:look:...already did :nono:
 
I just opened package that the KBB mask came in and like half of it spilled out inside the mailing envelope! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! The lid was busted. I salvaged what I could and put the remainder in an empty jar. I knew something was wrong when I went to open the package and it was a lil bit too easy to open. The spilled conditioner had softened the adhesive on the package, so I was able to just peel it open.
 
So I ended up finishing the BFH Ginger Macadamia and Mango Macadamia. Both just had a small bit left.

Some stuff that have one use or less left:
AE Garlic Treatment
Paul Brown Hawaii Reconstructor
Shea Almond Coconut cond.
Shea Mango cond.
Claudie's Protein

I like that PB Hawaii...
 
Good morning ladies, nothing going on as usual. Using up products and getting my list ready for my haul after april 1st. I know i want to go buy something, anything:look:. I don't need anything but yall know how it is. Compulsive shopping is therapy for the soul:yep:.
 
I did some flat twists last night, they turned out pretty good.So right now I am wearing flattwists with 2 strand twists. I will take these out tomorrow and try again just for practice. I've got one more use of the Giovanni Wheat poo. Initially I hated it bu I actually like it now.
 
I met my mama at her job this morning to do an exchange :look:. We're always giving each other stuff. She gave me two Starbuck gift cards and a tea strainer. I only gave her that freaking BB&B coupon. She hoards those. Anyways, why did my mama molest my hair? I had it in the two puffs. She loved it and had her hand all in my hair talking about waves, curls, and how soft it was :lachen:.

Oil rinsing & steaming has made it easier to detangle my hair :yep:.
