I did a roller set finally Thursday night. SO saw me yesterday and asked me if I went to salon? He usually can tell the difference between my roller set and their's. :D I must have done a way better job than usual.

@ckisland

You are in beautiful first year land :reddancer:. Don't worrry, you are going to close your eyes and by the end of this year wake up with more hair than you want to work with :grin:.

After that you will snatch BAA status right back. Your hair has always grown fast :yep: :hug2:.

Awww thank you!!! You are too sweet :blowkiss:. I've just gotten so used to doing and worrying about my hair every minute of the day that I barely know what to do with myself :lachen:.
 
As expensive as BASK conditioners might be, they sure do last me a long time. I'm still working on the first jar of whiskey soak I purchased last summer. And IIRC I've used the cacao quite a few times but still have a long way to go..it's annoying, I want to open other stuff lol
 
I need info on softening my 4b hair. Now that I'm somewhat transitioning I need to be able to comb through this stuff. :lol:
 
Loving all the birthday coupons and free gifts I ve been getting this month.
I like the sephora gifts the best, but they all make me feel so special.

You are right. As heavy handed as I am, this whiskey soak thingy lasted my an annoyingly long time lol.
 
So I stopped drinking egg cocktail and I'm just sticking with viviscal. I love my new thickness but the shedding is back and single stranded knots. :-( I spent 10 minutes in the bathroom needle in hand trying to get them out.
 
This has got to be the nastiest DC I've ever encountered. Not only did it turn my hair into a hardened grease ball, but that BS clogged up my drain! I wish I could punch the vendor several times in the throat.

It’s called Happy Nappy Honey Pink Sugar Hibiscus DC. I’ve never had a DC do that. I kept rinsing and rinsing and rinsing my hair in disbelief because it felt like I had rolled around in a vat of used motor oil. I could NOT remove that stuff until I increased the water temperature to an “Am I Getting Third Degree Burns On My Back?” type of hotness and dumped an obscene amount of Elucence Acidifying Shampoo on my head. Even after scrubbing three times my hair still felt oily, so I blindly reached my hand out of the shower and grabbed a conditioner to cowash with. I was afraid to move since the floor of the tub was so slick with grease (I did NOT want some paramedic putting a video of my naked, broken and bruised blubbery body on youtube:lol:). My hand came in contact with Hairveda’s Acai Berry conditioner, which was able to take care of the rest of the oiliness. I also had to pour 4 big old school collard green-making pots of boiling water down the drain to flush out the grease.

I’ve been traumatized!

Is that from the old or the new site? When that DC first came out, the ingredient list was nothing but honey, oils and butters. I've noticed that they've add water to the bottom of the list but they don't list an emulsifier so I wouldn't trust their ingredient list.

I think Beamodel used that DC and said it was really heavy.

Nothing from that vendor sounds good to me. Every time I visit the site I get annoyed. It looks better now but the typos and improper labeling drives me crazy.

To me it's just a butter. No were in the book of hair care could this possibly be a deep conditioner lol. It was way too heavy on my hair. I had to cut it with other DC's to help eliminate the greasiness. I haven't repurchased. I thought I would but as I tried using it each time, I decided not to more and more.

I even used it as a sealer. I liked it better that way but honestly I've moved on and haven't looked back. I ignore all happy nappy emails I get bc they don't have anything if interest to me anymore.

And yes, the darn chunks if hibiscus and whatever else was quite aggravating dealing with.

This was my first time using it; I purchased it in March. You are absolutely right - the vast majority of the ingredients are nothing but butters and oils with a dash of honey, water and guar gum at the end. I largely blame myself for leaping onto an unknown vendor during a sale.

Thankfully, mine didn't have any chunks of hibiscus in it. It's just some fluffy pink grease in a jar. I'm going to re-purpose the rest of it to earl down my autistic son's ashy parts during bath time.
 
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO RELIEVE MY SCALP FROM ALL THE ITCHIES?????

It's unbearable. And it's just been one week in this weave. I've oiled my scalp and used African braid spray but nothing is helping. Do I just wash my hair?? I was gonna do that but I know I can't airdry with weave and it's too late to use my hair dryer.

Thoughts???
