Can someone recommend a pomade or oil for some shine? I know broccoli oil is good for it...I've been sticking to what works but now that I want to grow my hair out and get a slightly new 'do, I feel the itch :look:

ETA: Just found this: protect and shine gloss
 
And my favorite YT channel finally released their setting lotion! They have an ACV rinse too. Their styles always come out super shiny and I love that it's a local company. In state shipping is free, I think! :grin: link

It's nice to not have to go to work huh natura87? I was supposed to go in yesterday, but I didn't due to having these teeth removed. I will go in on Thursday and Friday, but then I have a whole week off next week. Yay!

Beamodel Congrats on your new little niece! I'm sure you'll be teaching her all of the tricks of the pj trade. :yep:

I'm about to get up and try this Kera 10 cocleanse stuff.

IDareT'sHair - :lol:. Yea, Ynobe and TMN won't come for a while. I may do yarn but not till Mar and for 2-3 months tops, not back to back maraton months. And I'll be sure to stay on the use up, while in them. But we will certainly do our best to use up.

13StepsAhead - Feel better. Lot of folks getting/been sick.
 
I used the SSI Blueberry cowash and the Keravada Kera10 on either side of my head this morning. The SSI Blueberry definitely cleanses the hair. I had a prepoo of coconut oil, evoo, and Keravada Fenugreek in my hair. I also had various products in there from refreshing rather than washing for the past two weeks, and it got rid of all of that. I like the smell of the blueberry. It actually foams up just a tiny bit. It is a very thin consistency and transluscent, but not watery. Upon rinsing out, my hair felt soft, but not moisturized, like I had used a soap bar or shampoo.

The Kera10 is a very thick white cream with a SKRONG (IDareT'sHair :) ) smell. Smells like some kind of minty mixture. I don't quite like the smell. It foamed just a tiny bit for me. Rinsing out, my hair felt soft as if I was rinsing out straight up conditioner. That was a nice feeling. It felt so nice that I was wondering whether or not it actually cleansed my hair. When I came out of the shower, I didn't find any residue on my scalp or hair, so I am sure it cleansed well.

Both sides of my hair felt very clean. The Kera10 side felt slightly more moisturized, but not incredibly so. It is a good moisturizing, non-stripping, moisturizing, co-cleanser, but I am not wowed. I mean it didn't leave my curls popping or anything like that...I don't really expect a cleanser to do that though. The SSI Blueberry side felt soft, clean, not-stripped, but not moisturized either, which I don't really expect from a co-wash anyway. That is what my DC is for.

If I were to repurchase one, it'd probably be the Blueberry, only because it is cheaper for 1oz. more, smells good, cleanses well, and does not strip. The added moisturized feel of the Kera10 is not worth the price or the smell for me.
 
ST is a pain. They sent track# 12/20 - still says Electronic info rec'd - 1 day priority. I think they are in NY. Why da haylll a package need to sit for 4+ days??? This may be my last order with them. I'll try the other sites the sell it if I decide I can't live without it :rolleyes:

Aw, feel better! Sinus infection and the flu! :nono: I've had both before, but not back to back. I'd probably want to die. :hug2:
 
@Froreal3

I'm not interested in the Kera10, but thanks for the review. :lol:

I'll definitely be picking up SSI's Cowash next Sale.:lick:

After that debacle with their Butters/Leave-in, I just think they are better suited for Oils.

:lol: I remember that. I am sticking to their oils as well. I love my Fenugreek and will buy another bottle or two after my no buy is up. :yep:

I like the Blueberry Cowash. It smells like blueberries. :look: It reminds me of the consistency of Amala Cream Rinse. I might just stick with that for my next co-cleanser purchase since you get way more bang for your buck for them to do the same thing...clean without stripping.
 
IDareT'sHair Oh, and I'm chillin here under my dryer with the SSI Riche and Annabelle's White Chocolate Mouse on either side of my head. It's experimentation day. :lol:

When are you gonna try your Riche?

@Froreal3

Thank you sooooooo much for testing out these products for us.:hug3:

I really appreciate that. I can't stand to have a lot of stuff open at the same time, so it takes me a while to get into stuff.

I will only open 2-3 DC'ers at a time etc......:perplexed

Can't wait on your review of Riche. It'll be a while before I get around to it. :yep:

I need to get through a lot of these Naturelle Grow DC'ers and some other stuff I've had a while. i.e. BeeMine DC'er etc...

@Golden75

Well, you need to start back in Yarn January '15.:look: ...:blush:

Can you imagine how many products you can use up between now & then if you held off on the YB's?:lol:....:look:
 
@13StepsAhead

This is another Vendor I got from @Lita here's what I got: (2 separate Purchases):look:

x2 Condition Me Softly
x2 Ayurvedic Tea Rinse
x2 Amala & Avocado
x2 Aunt Cookies Moisture Crème
x2 Capucua Hair Butters

I thought I'd better make sure I had a back up.

That's why the 2nd order.

I love the fact that ALL of them are 8, 12, 16 ounces.

That's thebomb.com:grin:

Can't wait to try them:lick:
 
No problem IDareT'sHair Right now I only have four DCers (not including the , one of which is only 4 oz. (Anabelle's), so I will get through them fairly quickly between DD and I.

Hmmm...I just took my plastic cap off. So far both sides seem really really soft. :lick: The Riche was easier to apply, has slip since it is loosey goosey. The White Chocolate was nice and thick, but still easy to apply like SD VS. The Riche has pretty much completely absorbed into my hair. The White Chocolate is pretty much almost absorbed, though I do see remnants. That's ok though because I know I was heavy handed.

Let me go head and rinse these bad boys out.
