used up my Oyin honey hemp RIP, onto Claudie's Intense moisture conditioner. Pretty soon I am going to have dip into my bandwagon boo boos pile. Hurry up and get here BF!

curlyhersheygirl could I get the PM on the groupon, I have one left
 
curlyhersheygirl - something coming up for AveYou? I still have a Groupon left, too. :yep:

So, I wrote up my BF Wish List. Hmph, it's something else. :look: For the most part, I'll just be reupping on favorites. I added SheScentit to my list so I can try that new Tahitian Vanilla & Coconut leave in she has. :lick:

So I finished up some JBCO, CoCasta Oil, a jar of Coconut Confidence, and HTN Protein leave in.
 
I'm sitting here with DC in my hair. I was just thinking and these are my favorites finds for 2011:

SM Purification masque
Hairitage Hydrations
It's Perfectly Natural Pre-wash Treatment
Camille Rose Algae mask
Silk Dreams PRE
Silk Dreams Nourish
Enso shampoos

So, ladies, what are your favorite finds this year?????

IDareT'sHair , I know you must have a few! :yep:

@IDareT'sHair - not a bad idea -- buy before the stock depletes.

@curlyhersheygirl, may I get the deets as I have several groupons remaining.

@Eisani - what do you plan to buy with the Body Shop groupon?

I have no idea yet, but probably just some body butters.

Eisani what do you take when your iron is low?

I have a rx for something that starts with a N... Niferin or Niferex(???) But I rarely take the meds. I generally take a calcium/magnesium/iron supplement and eat more red meat, green veggies and black beans.
 
Hello ladies. I had yesterday off so I caught up on some sleep, banded my hair (it was a major bust). I bought some Hair Rules Curly Whip from Ulta on Thursday on a whim. I hope I like it.

Hey, everyone! :wave:

My BF list is getting ridiculous! The more I'm using up, the more I'm realizing that I.need.more. :lol: I've added SSI and b.a.s.k. on there. And maybe a liter of the rehab from curl junkie thanks to @chebaby. :grin:

I've also been reading up on that terresentials thread and decided to do a bentonite mix on my hair yesterday with just that and water. :nono: My hair turned out reeally heavy. Sounds good but it was like my hair is too fine for alladat. I thought it was gonna break off any minute and it was dry, too.

Do you ladies do any bentonite treatments? Should I add a couple of oils or some marshmallow/nettle mix? Or maybe I should order the real deal from Sage when they get back in stock? :look: :lol:

I did for a while when I was in school. I have a huge container of Bentonite clay sitting at my moms house. Thanks for reminding me.:lachen::lachen: I should start using it again.

@divachyk how do you like the con argan? I have heard some good things about it and I might want to try it. The shampoo has also gotten some good reviews.
Click to expand...
I like the shampoo destine2grow. It works great with all my products, to include my protein reconstructors. My hair feels clean but not stripped. I will be repurchasing.

Ramble: I didn't mind using sulfate products at first but after my recent hair tangling incident, I'm starting to question if sulfates are to blame. I've notice a tremendous difference in my hair's health since moving toward a no sulfate or minimal sulfate regi. My hair isn't as tangled as it use to be. The kicker will be once I'm 8 weeks post. If I'm still detangling with ease, then I'm sold. TMI I'm sure. :lol:
 
@Brownie518 and @IDareT'sHair - I have quite a few since I ditched my cheapie products at the start of 2011.
AE Garlic
Silk Dreams Nourish, PRE, Vanilla Silk (I have a few other items in my stash to try)
All things Bee Mine, especially Luscious
SSI Okra and Coco LI (I have a few other items in my stash to try)
Tiiva LI
CON Argan
Kenra MC
Jasmine's Avocado & Silk

ETA: Dang my list is long. Can't leave out HV SitriNillah. I have CJ, Oyin, BFH and Alfaparf in my stash that I haven't used. :look:
The purple are on the staples list
 
I have 4 different deep conditioners to use up:lol:....sigh. I know thats not much to some....but i had problems trying to figure out which one to use last nite!:grin:
 
Thanks @md and divachyk I have not found an shampoo that my hair likes. I use a shampoo once a month and cowash every week. I would like to find one that does not strip my hair and makes it hard. I know back in the day I liked ORS creamly aloe before I was natural. I will try that again. Does sallys sell the con argan?
 
My Afroveda came today. The Fruit Cocktail doesn't smell too bad (not floral/not fruity) interesting. :yep:

But thankfully, not overpowering. I can't describe the scent tho'. But neither Floral nor Fruity.

chebaby I thought I had gotten 2 Moringa & Ginseng Detanglers and 1 Ashlii, but I actually had 1 Moringa's & 2 Ashlii's so I'm quite happy.:grin:
 
My Marie Dean and AveYou came today. :yep:

I must say that I love that SM Purification mask more every time I use it. And as chebaby said, that banana scent is :lick:.
I just moisturized with Saravun Castor Hair Butter, just a tiny bit. I'm really liking everything I got from her.
 
@Brownie518

Hey Ya' Ms. B!:grin:

Yeah, Saravun is a very nice Vendor. Very thoughtful too. I'm glad you are liking that stuff. (Me Too):yep:

My MD Came, Extra Dark JBCO, Hairitage Hydrations, Afroveda......so I got the Mega-Load today.:look:

ETA: I pulled out a jar of Purification Masque. Will use it as a Cleanser.:lick:

I've been using the ORS Creamy Aloe Shampoo:yep:....its not really stripping...like..i can finger detangle with it...but its not exactly moisturizing either.

I'm almost done with the bottle....had it since earlier this year...i want to try either the Shea Moisture shampoos or the CON Argan...any comparison reviews on these?

I would like a moisturizing shampoo...since i don't really use products with cones in it except for my Dominican deep conditioners...that i REFUSE to stop using!:lol:
 
hey ladies
my AV came today:yay:
so tomorrow i will cleanse with the mud wash, steam with ashlii amala and then i dont know what ill do after that lol.

@IDareT'sHair - i haven't puchased anything from AfroVeda in a while. i need for her to get her mojo back. i'm feeling some kinda way about her line. my opinion is she gives us old products because her stuff is not selling fast. she upped her prices too fast and then charge you $$$$ in shipping.

no, i have not tried the fruit cocktail.
Click to expand...
do you really think shes selling old products?:ohwell: thats messed up if she is.

@chebaby

Did you read my Post? I actually ended up with 2 Ashlii's.

@chebaby @bronzebomb I looked at my Products and they look "Fresh".:look:

And yes, it did turn out nicely.:yep: And the Fruit Cocktail smells fine.

Maybe she revisited the strength of the fragrance.:blush:
