I broke out the Oh My Glide detangler. I have a couple tangles to work through. So far so good.:up:

If they have another Sale, I will grab a b/up. I'm pretty sure, they usually have another Sale b4 Christ.mas.

Someone said the Oh My Glide smells like candy. I am a sucker for candy scents. :grin:

Yes I did but it was NC that I didn't purchase anything from. I couldn't pass on that Vanilla Fig! That woulda been suicide :lol:.

Hello @Aggie &IDareT'sHair. I was just scanning these threads and observed this shared post. I am reluctant to share that I had never heard of NG Vanilla Fig until about five minutes ago. I have used a lot of her products and enjoyed them. In this sale
I purchased
Bamboo and silk 16oz
Mango and coconut 16 oz
2 hair balm 4 oz

There's always an option to put the Vanilla Fig deep conditioner on my list as a gift to myself:2inlove:
 
Hello everyone! I better not buy nothing else lol. I’ve bought clothes, makeup and hair products. I need to pay for my hotels for my upcoming vacations. I forgot all about that while hitting paynah lol. I didn’t need another hair product but who could resist when everything is on sale
Lol. I ordered from BeeMine and JMoniques. I wanted Claudie’s but the site wouldn’t work. I needed hair trigger but I’m over them. They didn’t email about the sale but they put it on their site without the code. That junky site. I gotta find me another oil with cayenne pepper. I think that really made a difference in my life. I needed more JBCO but the shipping was crazy on sunny isles. Chile I will just go round to the beauty supply for that. The gas wouldn’t even cost me $2 to get there and back. Smh.
 
Tonight I bought from Ebonyline.com:

-Zury Sis Reversible Dual Color Wig - PHIA in color RVT27/613

-Outre Lace Front Wig DOMINICAN BLOWOUT RELAXED in color DX3276

-Vanessa Wig SUPER DIANA in color SAND

-Bobbi Boss Swiss Lace Front Wig MLF160 MERCURY in color F1B/30
 
I need to download the app so I can show y’all pics of my wig! It is everything since I washed and treated it at home. The problem is that I used products that are discontinued. Y’all are going to be upset with me when I tell y’all this but a few months ago I was in Nordstrom rack about 45 minutes from home killing time while I was heading to a client’s place for work. Well I lost track of time and the client was upset and calling. I had to rush and purchase my items and decided to try the Ojon color sustain since it was only $6. I was getting it for extensions so I figured no need to stockpile. Well it rang up for a penny! They had 2 or 3 more bottles but it was way on the other side of the store and the line was super long plus the client was getting impatient so I said I would come back to get it. I never got the chance to go back so I have lived with regret since then. The product ended up being everything! I have to find a dupe because I’m not paying $18 for it on eBay until I have exhausted the possibilities. I also washed the wig with wen pomegranate and that’s getting harder to find too. This hair business is tricky!

After Darcy’s, you can’t be too careful.
 
So Here's what I did (these are all open for some reason) - which is a personal huge no-no::nono2:

I took:
A Scoop of JMonique's Triple Seaweed
A Scoop of JMonique's Spinach & Wheatgrass
A Scoop of JMonique's Burdock Root & Nettle
A Squirt of Soultanicals FroRepair Despair

Tablespoon of Kalpi Tone and a Tablespoon of Amla Powders
A couple Squirts of EVOO and a couple drops of Palm Oil

My 2nd Ayurvedic Concoction. It is safe to say none of the above Treatments/DC'ers will be a Repurchase.:look:

Good to know because I wanted to try these.
 
@Saludable84
They make a nice "Treatment" They are a dense product and offer virtually no slip etc...but as a Hair Nourishment - they are good.

For 50% off - and as a Treatment with great ingredients they are fine. I always followed up with a R/O when I used them alone.

And you know I'm not a "Mixtress" so I took the easy way out and used these as a "Base" for my Ayurvedic Treatments (which I am trying to do more of)

I still have yet to use the Coffee DC'er and the Charcoal one in my Stash.

And I've been 'tempted' to get another Bentonite & Rhassoul which I still may do at some point.
 
Ship Ship from: Camille Rose Naturals:drunk:

At least Vendors are getting better at Shipping during the Holi.day Season.:look:

Unfortunately, I still don't have (nor have I received) a Ship Notice from Cathy Howse which I was suppose to receive from her yesterday (Order placed 11/10). #irritating.:angry2:

@IDareT'sHair
That's really concerning. This is the second time this has happened with her right? I wonder what's going on
 
@curlyhersheygirl
Hi Curly!:wave:

Yes it is! :angry2:

That time it took months to get my order due to inability to get an ingredient from her supplier (supposedly). :look:

This time, she keeps saying it shipped and now she is saying it hasn't shipped. #vendorlies

Been meaning to ask you - if you are doing anything with Ayurveda?
 
@curlyhersheygirl
2018 I will try to be devoted to getting this stash down. I've been eyeballing it most of this weekend. :eek:

I know I have my work cut out for me, but I am determined to get it down to a manageable amount.:spinning:

I am also excited that this BF I bought mostly new items and not just a bunch of b/ups 2 the b/up. I did that too - but not as much.

Incorporating a bit of Ayurveda will help me stay excited and engaged.:grin:
 
@curlyhersheygirl
It will be a 'cheap' diversion and something new for me. They "key" will be not to overdo it, cause you know how WE do!:giggle:

So far, it's going well, because I'm mixing the Powders with DC'ers. Since the powders are mixed they've been easy to rinse out.

I also do an overnight Oil Soak with Ayurvedic Oils and it's been going good (so far).
 
@curlyhersheygirl
I mixed up a few concoctions with opened DC'ers and added powders (and a little oil) to them. You know I ain't tryna' make nothing from scratch:laugh:

I still have some Ayurvedic DC'ers like Bask & Bloom's Bramhi and some others - but it there is probably little difference in those and/or adding powders (and oils and/or a little tea) to some DC'ers to enhance them.

For now, it has me excited about doing/trying something new in 2018. And powders and Ayurvedic Oils are relatively inexpensive.

I've been reading posts by several posters who have seen good results incorporating Ayurveda into their overall regimen fairly quickly.

My goals for 2018 will be to purchase in bulk once or twice a year to cut down on shipping charges. I think this is feasible for me since I use up stuff rather slowly anyways.

@Beamodel
That's a Great Goal.:goodpost:

I always admire folks who do this.:grin:

Good Luck with that. I'd like to do that too.:up: M-Day and BF, so I'll be watching your progress.:yep:
 
Afternoon Ladies:

Today from Chagrin Valley Soap I bought:

babassu1000_compact_cropped.jpg
Shampoo Bar: Babassu Marsh Mallow × 1

mudclay1000_compact_cropped.jpg
Shampoo Bar: Mud & Clay × 1

neem1000_compact_cropped.jpg
Neem & Tea Tree Body & Hair Shampoo × 1

bamboocarcoal1000_compact_cropped.jpg
Soap: Bamboo Charcoal × 1

shea-rose1000_compact_cropped.jpg
Soap: Shea Rose Clay Complexion × 1

rosemintcharc1000_compact_cropped.jpg
Shampoo Bar: Rosemary Mint Charcoal × 1

I really wanted to try their soaps so I took advantage of the 10% discount offer they had for Cyber Monday. Not much, I know, but it was better than nothing since they don't really offer discounts.
