IDareT'sHair, no I haven't tried everything in those lines. I have stayed away from the items I was interested in with HTN because of the nut content. I do have BM DCer, DM Super Butter Cream and some CJ (rehab, deep fix and beauticurls argan & olive oil) in my stash. I don't have any backups of either of those items.
 
divachyk I have one $75 savemore, thanks for letting me know i have to use it. I don't need anything right now, but I do not want to waste my money. Guess I will re up the CJ I just sold, :lachen:

Just started a month of Bikram yoga on the last day of my three day juice fast. Going to eat my collards, cornbread and black eyed peas tomorrow. Whew, I think I am detoxing, got a head ache, and tired.
 
Where are y'all seeing BM on Aveyou? I forgot I have another groupon :ohwell:. I may get nail polish or something. I'm good on hair..ooh, lemme go look up GM.
 
IDareT'sHair - I will snag the Curls Sublime with my $75 groupon. :yep: I will use that one up later this week and the other $75 at the top of next week.

You are welcome Seamonster. Don't let that bad boy expire. I plan to get some CJ items. Not sure what, though but it likely will be more rehab, deep fix, beauticurls argan & olive oil. Might try the smoothing lotion and few others I've never tried.

Oh and Seamonster, I googled Bikram Yoga and oh my! Your body can bend into all those compromising positions? Bless you!
 
I'm with Eisani I do not see any Bee Mine on aveyou, and I had to do a manual search for Camille Rose. I did the same for BM and nothing came up...smh...I need to email them about that lol.
 
Day 3 done. I'm hoping this 16 oz mud wash will last through the detox. That way I still have another full 16oz bottle to use to alternate with the Shea Moisture Purification Masque. Oh yeah I have a detox coming from Shi Naturals too. Cuz ya'll know I ain't using no tablespoon like they suggest. I'm using as much as I want. I'm noticing more curling from the root which was an issue in some sections of my hair. I'm also noticing that one little patch that I thought was 4b is not. So along with this and the curly girl method I believe ShayShay and I will be happy :grin:.
 
IDareT'sHair I didn't find any BM on the site.

Uh, I JUST woke up. I think someone tried to wake me earlier :poke: and I wasn't having it. Let me get up and see who's here :lol:.
 
Hey ladies happy belated new year! I had a fab weekend; however, I did absolutely nothing to my hair the entire time. When I finally get home later I will give my hair some TLC.
 
Tried my best to break even but here's my $50 cart:
Hair Therapy Wrap - hope this is a good for the days I don't have time to steam.

divachyk The hairtherapy wrap is really nice. i like the mobility and it does a good job when u need to bump up the effect of a DC. Steaming still better though :lick:

Shay72 It most certainly will, or should :yep: I used a little over 1/4 of my 16 oz bottle and a little less than 1/4 of my 8 oz bottle for my detox.

Did u read the section about speeding up the detox by leaving in longer/sitting in the sun and washing with castile soap before using the mud? I followed the detox as they reccommended for the days when u washed 3x. for the days to wash 2x I used my heat therapy wrap for like 15 mins then kept it in for 1 hour for the second wash

what have you been doing with your hair after mudding? I used walnut or sweet almond oil over a bit of oyin hair dew.

now I can literally use only 2 - 3 tbs to do my whole head, i also wash with castile soap or do an ACV scrub (like what naptural85 does) before I mud.

Yeah I'm gonna end up using way more than that :look:. I'm not using any product at all. I'm only baggying at night with water. The detox ends on Friday. I will switch to Curly Girl on Saturday.
 
good morning everyone, I have finished my three day juice fast, and I am so hungry. Going to start light with some coconut milk, then take it from there. Think I will have cornbread and collards for lunch. Saving the black eyed peas for later.

woke up this morning and Sally's sent me a sale flyer, I took a look at what it is, so glad to be on the no buy. I don't need any of that stuff.

Found myself looking at juicers, the one I want is $400. I am thinking, I can buy a whole year of fresh squeezed juice for that. If I spend $400 on the juicer, then have to buy the food to juice, and then I stop juicing in February, like most new years resolutions, what a load of money to waste.

divachyk I can't bend into any of those positions, I am in the class sweating in pain, :grin: But I felt less tense afterward. I love DM detangler. I prefer it over QB cocoa because it is lighter, hydrates and detangles like a dream. It is a heavy lotion, very hydrating. I do like the QB for twist outs but since you are relaxed I bet you could get a great twistout with DM.

I'm so sorry Girl, But why was I thinking AveYou now carried both Bee Mine & Camille Rose? :blush:

Did I dream that?:look:.....:nono:

I know they have HTN. For some strange reason, I thought I saw the other 2 as well.:perplexed
 
Hay ladies doing the no-buy, I have a confession to make, I asked my BF to get me the Qhemet products whenever she has the sale, instead of something else he was gonna get me for Christmas .... since she stiffed us on the Decemeber sale.

Im technically not buying
 
SimJam

Thanks for staying 'honest' Sim. I don't think we ever said someone else couldn't buy us products.:look:

I was really tempted to get that new b.a.s.k. YAM and the other new b.a.s.k. Milk, but sadly & sorely passed.:sad:

I shoulda' stayed outta that Thread.:sad:
 
Good afternoon ladies! I go back to work tomorrow suck off time over.


shay, you don't make our own detox from clay?




Seamonster, you can get a juicer cheaper than that. It depend on how much juicing you will do. I don't do muc and i'm not 100% raw, i have breville paid $99 at Macy 6 years ago. Juicer at that pricer imo are for full time vegetarian or raw folks

I used to with bentonite clay but I'm trying to simplify my life and I'm just plain lazy. I'm giving up ayurveda this year too. I can use up the rest of the bentonite on my face.
 
After I get my CJ pattern pusha and some cleansing conditioners from bfh and a few things from Shi naturals I'm done buying til Black Friday. I have been enjoying using up stuff! Last night I used up kbb luscious. I only got 3 uses out of the jar so I don't plan to repurchase, even at bogo free. I am really about to try to just focus on staples. Today I hope to use up Donna Marie's curling Gelly. I won't repurchase bcuz I hate the flakes that I get from it and I believe that I will like the UFD better. This month I plan to use up yes to carrots conditioner, Jasmine Hibiscus, Hairveda Hydra-silica, and Darcy's Botanicals curl creme gel. The DB curl creme gel will be the only repurchase from that list. I love it because it's very light and it provides a lot of definition with a soft hold! It works great on wet or dry hair and I can use it at the end of the week after having 50-11 things already caked up in my head lol.
 
Hello Ladies! In an effort to not buy anything, I've stayed my little boo-tay at home these past few days. In addition to whatever dh buys, I too will be treating myself to something since it's my bday month but I won't let it distract me from the overall goal. Nor will it be days upon days of shopping. I guess I should have thought of this (my bday) before agreeing to the no buy. Promise I won't get out of hand. :yep:

I got the Camile Rose line, and the follicle booster. Hope these product last a while, I am fully stocked with MD. I thought that voucher was good until March. Thank goodness Divachyk reminded us all.
 
Um.:ohwell: Yeah. :ohwell: I need to stay outta that b.a.s.k. Sale Thread (for real). :ohwell:

And focus on some of the lovely products I have here to use. I thought about doing my hair today, but decided to wait until tomorrow (my regular day).

And after the 1st day back at work I'll need the evening relaxation. I'm sure it will be much needed.:lick:

We got a light dusting of 'snow' today and it is cold as you know what.:cold:
 
Is it me or do some of these length check in's look enhanced :look:. Maybe I'm going crazy and seeing things...IDK. The pixelation (is that a word?) just don't seem right on some pics.
