Black Friday 2017

[Aggie]

That's what I have as well. Report back after you try it, please!

@prettyinpurple

I used the plastic-lined satin cap from Bon Bon Cheveux and it's wonderful. It was perfectly sized, not too tight and the plastic is not light like a typical conditioning cap. It's actually heavy like a shower cap and the satin is beautifully sown over it. It's a re-purchase because it worked perfectly for my green house effect regimen at night. There is no fear of my pillows getting greasy.

I'm going to get one too. Because right now I have a towel fort over my pillow to keep it from getting oil stains.

I tried mine again and it was still tight. I was mad lol. It is cute and appears to be well-made though.

It is definitely worth it for the purpose you need it for for sure.

I'm sorry yours is too tight hon. Maybe you should try and call them to customize one for you. I don't know if that will work but it's worth a try. I did order a satin cap without the plastic underneath that was too tight but I also ordered one that has an adjustable bow so all wasn't lost there. I simply use the one with the adjustable bow.

I am almost out of all of my fave Kerastase products. Last BF they did 25% off plus the normal freebies.

I want to buy the Discipline sulfate free poo
Curl Ideal Cleansing Conditioner
Maskeratine dc
I'll add to this list if anything else interests me.

I purchased some Kerastase stuff yesterday.

 

[Prettymetty]

I purchased some Kerastase stuff yesterday.

Yay! What did you get?!

 

[Aggie]

From www.banyanbotanicals.com (25% off with code MULA165) - I just picked up:

1 lb of Bhringraj powder
1 lb of Triphala Powder
34 oz bottle of Brahmi Oil (in sesame oil)

I can strike these items off my BF list for now.

 

[gemruby41]

Yay! What did you get?!

Discipline sulfate free shampoo
Chronologiste shampoo
Chronologiste mask
Therapiste shampoo
Therapiste pre poo conditioner
Discipline spray leave in
Oleo Relax Serum
Magistral cream leave in

The salon had 20% off, plus their prices are a few dollars less than the website.

 

[Jade Feria]

Is it me, or is every vendor doing "Pre-Black Friday" and "Black Friday Month" sales with bigger percentages off on days BEFORE BF?

 

[YvetteWithJoy]

Rethinking Black Friday 2017:

1. Yoga shoes
2. fun jump roping DVD
3. Piyo DVD???
4. Banyan Botanicals ayurvedic powders
5. Jamila henna
6. optiphen or optiphen Plus???
7. MO Peony leave in
8. Miche (formerly Lush) Indulge DC x3
9. standing hair dryer
10. barrel curlformers???

 

[gemruby41]

Is it me, or is every vendor doing "Pre-Black Friday" and "Black Friday Month" sales with bigger percentages off on days BEFORE BF?

Yes, I have seen this. For example, my bf was going to wait for black Friday to get the dr dre headphones on sale at Best Buy for $159. They had a pre black Friday sale last week, and he got it for $159. He didn't have to wait in line like black Friday to get it, so that worked out for him.

Also, I bought some products at a salon last week on sale because they were having a pre black Friday sale. On black Friday, they will not have the sale.

 

[naturalyogini]

Ulta:
Joico Intense Hydrator
Joico Revitalux conditioner
Joico Moisture co-wash. I should just go ahead and get them now since they are having a buy 2 get one free sale.

Carol's Daughter:
Rhassoul rinse out x2

Still looking for a butter my hair likes.

 

[Aggie]

I am also rethinking my BF list and this is my revised BF list at the moment:

APB Keratin Protein Treatment
APB Hibiscus and Pomegranate Deep Conditioner
Kindred Butters Joe's Joe Deep Conditioner
Kindred Butters Green Tea and Babassu Deep Conditioner
Mielle Organics Babassu and Mint Deep Conditioner
Mielle Organics Mongongo Oil Hydrating conditioner (Protein-Free)

I think I might want to try the Bask & Bloom Brahmi Root Hair Masque instead of the Miche/Lush DC: https://baskandbloomessentials.com/...-hair-masque/products/brahmi-root-hair-masque

Brahmi, aloe, BTMS, aaaaannnnnd honey???

 

[Smiley79]

Kindred Butters Joe's Joe Deep Conditioner
Kindred Butters Green Tea and Babassu Deep Conditioner
Mielle Organics Babassu and Mint Deep Conditioner
Mielle Organics Mongongo Oil Hydrating conditioner (Protein-Free)

Is the APB Protein treatment strong? I like the Komaza protein, but I am open to try some others.

 

[Rozlewis]

I am keeping it low key this BF, considering I still have some of last years purchases still left. This year I plan to get:

Annabelles - Leave-in Conditioner (6) - already purchased pre-Black Friday
Komaca Care - Protein Strengthener (10) - already purchased. They don't usually have a sale.
Mane Choice - Manetabolism (12) and a few other items

 

[LushLox]

Discipline sulfate free shampoo
Chronologiste shampoo
Chronologiste mask
Therapiste shampoo
Therapiste pre poo conditioner
Discipline spray leave in
Oleo Relax Serum
Magistral cream leave in

The salon had 20% off, plus their prices are a few dollars less than the website.

Damn, I know you spent some dough there lol

Do you like the Chronologiste mask or is this your first time trying it?

I've had my eye on that Magistral leave in, what's it like?

 

[natural2008]

Received an email from Alikay naturals 40% off the entire site start time 4:00pm end time 8:00pm. Use code 40for4 today, November 17, 2017 only.

Random: Those headphones seem to go on sale during the days leading up to Xmas too - usually 50% off at Best Buy. I know Target will price match it and I'm sure other stores will too.

Yes, made a dent in my wallet. I stray and buy other products, but honestly Kerastase is holy grail for my hair. I’ve used the Chronologiste mask and shampoo in the past, and I’ve really liked them.

The Magistral leave in is new for me, and I like it so far. I used it last night as a moisturizer, and my hair is still soft.

The Whole Foods in my area is having a 25% off beauty products from 6-7 October, so I'm going to get most of my staples then (Castile soap, coconut oil, scented soaps, essential oils).

For BF, I would like to stock up on the following:
KCNT
4 Naturals #2 Serum
Oyin Hair Dew
Jason Biotin Conditioner
Dark & Lovely Hair Dye (it's a ginger red)
Aphogee Green Tea & Keratin Leave in
Aphogee 2 minute reconstructor

The only item I got on this list was Oyin Hair Dew. Since I'm moving towards a more natural/Ayurvedic regimen and have no interest in doing WNG on a regular basis, my products changed. This season and 2018 is all about maintaining my protein/moisture balance, retaining length, and hiding my hair on a monthly basis.

Girl, I just got back home from Target with storage bins. I actually want to get a bookcase or something similar.
