Lush

[Growingmyhairlong]

Hey guys so this weekend I went into LUSH cosmetics and brought so many hair products. I brought their henna bar, conditioner, and shampoo bar mixed with coconut oil. I can't wait to try these on my wash days. Anyone heard of this store and uses their products?

I love lush but they can be pricey. I've neva used there hair products but I have used there lotions, perfumes and lip gloss. The only thing about there products was there shelf life was short. I can't wait to read the reviews for there products

The shampoo you're talking about...is it Trichomania?

Which conditioner did you get?

I'm on my phone so I don't know much about posting links. However it couldn't hurt to check out the rather large LUSH thread. It's on the makeup side. I'm not a big fan of LUSH shampoo bars or conditioner bars anymore

When I get home I will write the name down of the products. Why don't you like their hair products anymore?

I've been meaning to try the henna bar! I want to wait until right after I get a touchup but i never have time or energy. Perhaps over the holidays when I'm free.

I love their face products like the scrubs, lotions and masks!

I can't wait to try the henna too. I just watched a video on someone else using it and she states that she got better results with the lush henna. Post back in here ladies to let us know what u think after you tried it. I might be using mine this week and I promise to post the names of the items I brought. I been busy sorry.

Okay so this is what I brought from LUSH Cosmetics this weekend. R and B Moisturizer (I can smell it before I open the container smells yummy), Retread Conditioner (The lady at the store said that people use this as a cowash as well. We shall see) I brought my first shampoo bar. I don't have the name but it has coconut oil in it for it's sulfate properties, CACA Marron Henna Hair Color ( The color is Chestnut) This henna has cocoa butter mixed in with coffee, and other herbs. I will be using the henna and everything else this weekend. I might not cowash with the conditioner after using the henna. What I think I am going to do is after using henna I will deep condition with a moisturizing conditioner. Can't wait. I will update you guys.

lovebug10 did you get your henna from Lush yet. I applied it to my hair and I will wash it out tomorrow morning. It smells so good. I am so excited to see how strong it makes my hair. I was reading CurlyNikki blog and she said that Lush is one of the best places (amongst a couple of others) that sell top grade Henna. The last time I used henna it was years ago when my hair dresser applied it. It stunk but my hair was so pretty and strong. I have always been scared to try henna so I used Cassia. I loved Cassia but I wanted something a little stronger and something that will add a little bit of color. So I can't wait to see what it does to my hair. Once I rinse it out I will follow it up with a moisturizing conditioner.

So I washed my hair with the shampoo bar before and it smelled so good. I don't have any love for it yet though. I need to use it a few more times so that I can see how well my hair responds.

CurlsOnFire23 did you get your henna yet. I thought it would take up a lot of my time but it really didn't . It's just messy.

I love lush henna, but it's pricey. I find the smell of R&B overwhelming, I finally threw out the container after using it once. I think lush has lost it's way with growth. I think their products were better before they got bigger. They say they haven't changed the formulas, but something's off.

 

[lovebug10]

Growingmyhairlong I still havent bought it. I have a lot of new growth and I don't want to try to henna through it so I'm going to wait until I finally relax. Which one of the colors did you get? Also did it change/ enhance your hair color? I was thinking of getting the cacca brun or the cacca rouge.

@CurlsOnFire23 did you get your henna yet. I thought it would take up a lot of my time but it really didn't . It's just messy.

It took me maybe 10-15 minutes to get the stuff to the consistency that I wanted it to be. I think I messed up by washing my hair beforehand and not drying it....didn't even try to read the directions *rolls eyes* I'm going to do it again. It smells good to me (like tea leaves).

I bought a bar of the lemon soap once and it completely dried me out Haven't tried the other products though

I used to love lush but I am not sure what happened maybe they grew fast or something but it is not the same product I started with. Now I use stuff from Basin and while it is totally price I think it is really worth it. To me Basin is what lush used to be..or tired to be.

I used to use the Lush henna bars. Great product, but buying a bag of henna from the local Indian grocer is more convenient, less expensive and the mixing is easier (with bars I had to grate them). If I want a more reddish brown I add brewed coffee or black tea to my henna mix. If I want a more red I actually add a little vinegar and let it sit overnight. With Lush henna bars you have to purchase different bars to get a variation in color. Although the henna bar is a good product, it just isn't worth it.

Alright my henna is done and rinsed out. Now I can truly notice a difference. My hair feels stronger. The color is nice. I used CaCa Matron. Pictures you can really see it. Nice and shuttle.







This will def be an every four week thing. Mixing was not that bad. I just ended up using the entire bar lol. Dryness was not QN issue cause I cowashed it out. Love it!!!!!

 

[Growingmyhairlong]

Lush is so easy for me to get to and the guess work of mixing up ingredients is gone cause its done for you.

Omg the h'suan wen wua...I was all skeptical but that is some goooood stuff. I used the entire tub, though, on my hair. OMG that stuff really works.

And I used the retread afterwards and while it feels light in consistency, it was also very good.

 

[Growingmyhairlong]

Now I need to try the h'suan wen wua. Next shopping trip I know what I am buying.

Okay so now I tried the R and B moisturizer and I am not sure what I think about it. I am going to try it for two weeks and then I will come back and give my review.
