Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge pt.4

[Ltown]

Good Morning Ladies, back to work Nothing new on hair, haven't used up nothing either.

mkd, did you see the Walgreen sale on shea moisture bogo, since you like it that a good deal?

IDareT'sHair, you've tried everything under the sun when it comes to hair

My addiction is shoes, clothes, then hair products. I'm narrowing down my hair products uses and that will be by no buy for April.

Good morning ladies, nothing going on hair related today. I did some research on grapeseed oil and it says its good for the skin, so i used some as a face moisturizer last night and it worked really well. My face was not oily or greasy at all, i have combination oily t-zone and dry cheeks and my skin was perfect. No oil on my nose but my face was moisturized. I will keep using it to experiment to see how it does in the long run. That is why i like natural products they can be used may ways.

that is the beauty of them.

 

[La Colocha]

Lawd help me be skrong, i looked at our walgreens ad just to see if it carried shea moisture and it does but i don't want any shea moisture. I saw bogo for my face soap, toothpaste, mouth wash. and protein supplement. I don't need nothing but its a bogo *cries*.

 

[bronzebomb]

I finished a Komaza Intense Moisture Therapy and a box of Anita Grant's Rhassoul Deep Conditioning cubes. I have back ups for both.

I really want to try this...but I don't want to pay for shipping or have my product locked in customs...

Hey everybody.

Beauty, I haven't tried zipporah either. it doesn't interest me for some reason.

I've ordered from her 2x without any issues. There is a US site that sells it now. I've never ordered from them before. Let me find it and I will come back and post it in here.

mkd, I'm not a product pusher that IDareT'sHair job I knew you liked it and you can treat it a one good deal and get the smoothie. There is not many buy-one-get-one-free deals on many things out there.

I was on the fence with Claudie's braid spray but I think I have found the right combo so I'm good now. I was using the braid spray then following up with Komaza's Shea Butter Lotion. My hair wasn't feeling as moisturized as it should be and I know it can be. Switched it up yesterday and followed up the braid spray with the Dew. It's all good now .

I'm on the fence with Natural Jenesis Moo La Cream Leave In. I was using it as a moisturizer which it does a great job but I have so many moisturizers. I tried it as a detangler a while back and it did a pretty good job. Yesterday not so much. I will say my hair was fully detangled but it was hard work. I think I need to use more product. We shall see.

Shay72 is the Komaza Intense a staple or repurchase for you? bronzebomb has me wanting to try it!

 

[bronzebomb]

beautyaddict1913 I love Komaza Hair Care. The longer I use it, the more I like it! I didn't/don't know what Dipalmitoylethyldimonium Chloride (A derivative of Palm Oil) is. But, it must be similiar to Coconut Oil; my hair loves Coconut Oil.

Have you tried the Olive Moisture Mask! It smells fresh and penetrates quickly.

 

[Shay72]

beautyaddict1913
The intense moisture therapy is a staple. My 3 staple moisture dc's are Hairveda's Sitrinillah, Komaza's Intense Moisture Therapy, and Shea Moisture's Deep Treatment Masque.

I've found out that although Brownie518 is relaxed that our hair likes the same stuff 99.9% of the time. I'm keeping my eye on you bronzebomb because it seems we like the same products too.

OMG! Sitrinillah and SM DTM arre two of my staple dc's too! I luv the kbb luscious locks but won't re=purchase because it costs about $6.25 per use! I luv the MHC Honey Hair Masque too! Me and bronzebomb seem to like the same stuff too lol! I have never tried the Komaza Olive Masque either but I sure want to, its on my Sage list! Have yall tried Darcy's or Bee Mine's DC?

Charz A nice leather couch on sale runs about $650 and up. My mom is looking for one too and she gets my opinions on all the ads so thats what I have observed! She wants a sectional though - so 1990's lol!

 

[beautyaddict1913]

Yall should see the bun I have in my head! I done made something up lol! I tried to do a cinnabun this morning but it just didn't give me a good look lol so I stopped mid-attempt and kept my hair in the band and just twirled it into 4 sections and pinned away. I like the idea, gonna do a better job tomoro lol.

 

[chebaby]

beautyaddict, i love darcys deep conditioner. that stuff is amazing, it leaves a little oil on my hair once i rinse it out.

hey everyone. my braid out looks and feels amazing today. i used a ton of the dew so my hair is really soft and i know i wont have to re moisturize all week. it was still a little damp though so its gonna get bigger so it wont look as long as last week. i dont mind though.

 

[BrownBetty]

Hi!

Anyone try fekkai products? I was given a free sample of the shea poo and con. Debating if I want to put it in my hair.

Charz, depends if you want soft leather or the traditional it can run up to $800-1200. Value Furniture has layaway 90 day plans!

Ltown is that good quality though?

beautyaddict1913 I want a sectional too, but I feel like I would have limited options with placing it.

Charz, yes it is, VC is crowded on weekend because it's affordable. Now Family Furniture Some places over prices because of names like Haverty. Room Furniture has decent prices and quality too. I always get the manufacture number and research.

 

[Charz]

Ltown yeah i'm looking online and they look really affordable. I want a burnt orange one tho.

 

[Shay72]

I thought it was interesting when folks were listing products lines they're not interested in trying. You know they assume us pjs want to try everything.

Lines I have no interest in:
Miss Jessie's
Donna Marie
Karen's Body Beautiful
Alikay Naturals (I go back & forth with this one)
Bear Fruit Hair (I saw the bottles on yt and the vlogger was complaining about them)

Lines I cut:
Afroveda
My Honey Child
Curl Junkie
Njoi Creations
Chagrin Valley

Alikay Naturals and Njoi Creations both have been cut.

I only want to try Anita Grant. I'm trying to curb my PJism. By the time I use all of the products I have, I would be waist length.

I really like Afroveda...but not more than my top 3 lines, Oyin, Komaza and Qhemet. I'm probably going to limit my purchasing and only use the previous 3 lines. Personally, I believe that all other lines work the same on my hair, just a different scent. I wil say that I like Miss Jessie's for styling and I will only purchase if it's a BOGO.

Shay72 - what are your staples?

 

[Ltown]

@Ltown yeah i'm looking online and they look really affordable. I want a burnt orange one tho.

Charz, my friend has that color and it's really pretty, although she got her at Ashley furniture.

 

[bronzebomb]

@Charz - I saw a British Tan Leather sofa in Sam's Club. This is showing my age...

The color is similar to Burnt Orange. If you have a really old (circa 1988) Coach bag, it was one of their signature colors.

I'm still making decisions on oils and serums. I will come back in another post with my ayurvedic powders and oils .

I have stuff I am still trying so they haven't made the list. I like at least 3 products in each category or I don't feel right. I am looking for another protein dc, detangler, reconstructor, and hair grease. I also need some spritzes with protein in it.

 

[beautyaddict1913]

@Charz you will be limited in placement with the sectional, they only seem to look right if placed against a wall you can't do too many HGTV placement tricks with those, but they are economy friendly as in thats the only piece you will need - no need to buy sofa, loveseat, ottoman, chairs, etc.

@Shay72 great staples list. got me wanting to try some more stuff lol! On the methi sativa do you find that the 2nd step is enough to restore moisture to ur hair or do you use one of your faves after? Oh, and why did u cut Chagrin Valley?

To add to my list of products I may never try - other than Alikay Naturals & Blended Beauty - I want to add Anita Grant & BFH & Ori Organics. Anita - she is full of it with those prices. 1 ounce of oil for $36 and such, girl bye! BFH - everything sounds good but I can't get past those bottles! Put those DC's in a jar at least! We need to send her an email asking that she gone use up those cute bottles she has and doesn't repurchase lol. Ori Organics - not only have I heard nothing but negativity about her cust. serv. but don't name your line organic nothin if you have Diazolidinyl Urea & Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate all up and through it lol! I don't mind those personally but that name is misleading.

 

[chebaby]

anita grant is not worth it IMO. i was so excited to try her stuff and not only were the prices crazy pricey but nothing worked for me. including the little cube deep conditioners.

 

[Charz]

beautyaddict1913

I want one like this

wow Charz, thats beautiful. for furniture i always love a dark chocolate or a cherry wood color. i love dark color but that orange is nice.

 

[La Colocha]

Walgreens got me yall, i got a shea moisture moisture shampoo and restorative conditioner less than $5.00 for product i could not resist. Thinking of going back and getting more for the price. * hangs head low*.
