Look Ya'll ! Ya'll Goin Hafta be Highly Entertaining tonight to Keep me Up until 12:01 !

I always Fall asleep waaayyyy early (always have)! By 10 -11 I am ready to 'Crash' AND I need to be WIDE AWAKE,

So Ya'll better be talkin' 'bout some Good Stuff Up in Here.

I don't think Imma Hafta make that Haul to Tar'get in the a.m.

My friend called last night and was acting like she was either changing her mind or 'funds were low' (not sure which)

So, hopefully, I will be home when Qhem Rings the Bell!

I say go for it! I wish I could make my own products.

I would probably just buy it instead of making it. Ive dabbled with cocoa butter before and i hate it. You melt it and it goes right back solid in your hair. It can be made because its so simple but i don't have the patience.

Girl i see alot of people are changing their minds about making purchases. My dad usually goes to black friday sales and he said he thought about it, and decided not to go.I don't know about where you live but here where many people work are just now feeling the recession we are a year behind. It will hit us hard in 2010.

 

[chebaby]

happy thanksgiving everyone



i wanna go to target in the am. i want a bed set.
wont get no qhemet.
the only thing i plan on getting is from curlmart. i want the wen fig cleanising conditioner, re-moist(or whatever that over priced stuff is called), miss jessies baby butter cream and the curly meringue.
that wen re moist is super exspencive for 4oz but the ingredients look better than the cleansing conditioner and i love the cleansing conditioner.

I have the Radio on (Christmas Music which I Love) and they just reported: "People are now lining up at this one particular Mall" Waiting on Midnight for it to Open." Can you believe that? I Wonder if it's Just HYPE?

@ Bolded: Yeah, I am going to really scale back Next Year with everything. Clothes, Shoes, Definitely Hair Products and ALL my other Obessions.

 

[chebaby]

wow T, you used up a ton of stuff. i need to be like you when i grow up.

im gonna cut back next year too. i know the only reason i shop so much is because i get depressed so i need to work on that first. but im scared of being broke too so thats a wake up call too.
but people go crazy at the malls and stuff. i think they get a rush when they get the last of something but i aint that kinda gal .
if i go to target to get my bed set thatll be the first time i ever went shopping on black friday. at least that i can remember.

 

[*fabulosity*]

I went ahead and ordered my JBCO from Crown Essentials. I only ordered 2 Bottles especially since La and I are in Discussions of Purchasing a Case in the Spring.

I had e-mailed them about whether they planned to offer a BF Discount, but never heard anything back.erplexed I think La also said she had done that too. erplexed

So, These 2 will have to last Me into the Spring Season. If not, I will use something else. Lord Knows I have a 'host' of other things that I can improvise with.

:burning: :burning:



So nobody liked my Anita Grant idea... well forget chall den!
Just kidding.. I have never been on the website...lol.

Happy thanksgiving to you to che and everyone. I didn't even think about it. Curlmart is the place to go for the things you want che. I think the wen stuff is still 30%off if they have stock left, the bogo for miss jessies and i think free shipping at $60. You have to check that one for sure, that's a good deal right there.

that? I Wonder if it's Just HYPE?

I have people at walmart and bestbuy, they say the stuff is at the front door and its only a few items, if your not one of the first few in its a wrap. Kmart sale starts at 6am but i didn't see anything worth going for.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

wow T, you used up a ton of stuff. i need to be like you when i grow up.

Chile: 1st Time In a Long, Long Time! Thanks Che.

I have now until 12.31.09 11:59 a.m. to Make it Happen.

I spent quite a bit of time in between cleaning, hair etc....out in Stashville asessing 'the situation'.erplexed I am better than "good" I Have Such Great Products.

So Next Year, My Focus Needs to be the Following: 1) Make the Most of What I Got, 2) Retention and 3) Perfecting My Techniques i.e. Relaxing, Curling, etc...

What will Be the 2-3 Things You ALL Will Focus On Next Year?

ALL OF YOU........................okelease Name them. Thanks

Her and sams i emailed. Im going to be real picky about who i order from next year also. Customer service, shipping time and answering emails will be a big part of my decision making.

 

[chebaby]

La, i was on the curl mart site last night and you are right. the shipping is free with $60 and the miss jessies is BOGO. so two BB and 2 curly meringues will last me forever. now i can work on perfecting my twist outs. oh and only certain wen stuff is on sale.


hmmmmm what am i gonna work on next year? lets see....
1) retention. i want full sl hair unstretched by the end of 2010.
2) will work on cutting back on my spending. esp. since i know my hair can and will thrive on shea butter and coconut oil
3) i have no idea what #3 is but i have time to figure it out.

I think I only wished a Happy Turkey Day to Brownie this a.m. Cause it seemed like she & I were up Early.

My Sentiments to You All. You Ladies have been incredibly wonderful. And I am Thankful for Each One of You. I truly am. You have made this Journey Fun and 'bearable' for me, especially since I am "in Recovery" Which could have been soooooooooooo Depressing for Me.

But The Lord Knows Best, That's why He Put us Together. We have Really Formed a Tight Bond and we have each other's Backs. And I appreciate you All.

@Bolded: My Secretary said she is going to BB to get a Laptop (Sony for $399) the a.m., and that you had to get in line and get 'some kind of ticket' I hope she gets it. She's in School.

K-Mart is Open today too.

That Sounds like msa and Her Coconut Oil & Watta'

We saw your brendita's list *throws up hands*

What will Be the 2-3 Things You ALL Will Focus On Next Year?

Continuing to use up my products, not buy anything unless its on sale or im totally out of a product that serves the same purpose. Retaining length, i think my hair is healthy now i want to see the colochas grow.

I am not going to be at the mall lined up because one... the best sales for clothes are on Cyber Monday...online. I am not trying to fight someone up in a store over a sweater. Now a TV for sure. We will be getting us some electronics though. Only Blu-Rays are allowed at Casa de Fabulosa in ATL...

Its so funny how quickly things changed... I remember when I bought my condo lcds were the thing so I went and got 4... the big one 46" cost me like 1700... now Walmart got them there NOT as a doorbuster for $597. I think I paid somewhere around that for my 27" one. My my how things change.

Used up my Aphogee 2 min recon! Have you guys ever did a binge just to get rid of something??? I did that.. I put like a whole handful because I didn't want to see that junk in the shower any more...lol. I also have a ton of Jasmine's recon and YTTomatoes in my hair as a protein mix DC...(can you tell this week was protein week?)..lol.

I am going to rinse this out, blow dry, and flat iron with my new $51 Amika that I can't wait to use. By that time it should be time to get a SMALL plate at the peeps and laugh at the drunks and HIM will be back looking me all up in my face talking about why you not ready..its 5p.m.

Oh here are some pics from when I accidently highlighted my hair using too much shine happy and went under the dryer. But it turned out and cute.. (Thankya Jesus)

That's sweet t, same to you, for bb they give you the tickets for first come first serve, if you get a ticket you have a chance of getting some good deals. You know how people run over each other, say you and me are in line and you are ahead and i run you over. People with tickets get first choice.

Fab your hair always looks nice, i see dem gray's og woot woot.

ALL OF YOU........................okelease Name them. Thanks

Actually I think everything is perfected for me..
BKT aka dead people juice smoothie or whatever y'all calling it up in here.. saved my life ..
For one I am getting all this stuff because I have saved a TON of money by not going to the salon weekly .. that's 200/month...and excluding when I used to get a touch up. I don't texlax anymore, do my own color, and am wikked on the flat irons... so I'm good

But if I must say something to particpate (which I don't have to because cough cough... I'm an invited guest) ... I would probably say working on my trimming/cutting techniques so I can completely be full service for myself... and I think knowing how to cut (other than dust) is keeping me from being phenomenal (if I must say so myself...lol)

You happy MS TERRI?!

Don't be trying to use colochas all the time now since you finally told us what it meant (which is still under suspicion)
Ay Ay... you did not see me getting a CASE of anything at Brenditas...

Hole Up1st Bolded: That was that Tree Hugging Charz Ain't Nobody else say nothin' negative about BKT. I was mean-mugging her because she is always talking that All Nattraul Product Mess and then started talking BKT.

It Looks Great and I'm glad it's working for Ya! (Seriously).

@2nd Bolded: I Feel the exact same way. Now, I am overspending. That's how I initally 'justified' my purchases. But I'm good now and I need to focus on growing.

@3rd Bolded: That was a 24 Hour 'Guest Pass' (like at the Gym) Now, You're an Officially Member. You Posted too many times, so now You are One of Us.

@4th Bolded: That would be Great! I'll hafta' come to ATL for the Hook Up (errr....when I grow some hurr)

@5th Bolded: You Did Good Girl.

Happy Thanksgiving Y'all!!

What will Be the 2-3 Things You ALL Will Focus On Next Year?

ALL OF YOU........................okelease Name them. Thanks

In 2010 I will be focusing on...

1. Sticking to the same regimen for the whole year. I have all my products, except for a cleanser and I'm hoping shikakai will be it for me.

2. Retention. I already know how to retain so I want to keep every mm of growth I get. To be honest, my longest layer could get to WL if I retained everything so my retention game needs to be on point with no slip ups (ie laziness).

3. Health. It's now time to focus on my eating habits and exercising. No point in having fly hair if I look like the Michelin Man and can barely walk from the car to the entrance of the store.

4. Styling. This is the thing I'm least concerned about but I would like to be able to do some cute styles (aside from my bantu knot out). I can't even part so that's the first thing I'll be working on. I also want to perfect a sophisticated pin-up style for those times I have somewhere important to go.
