Still been spraying my hair with Taliah Waajid PMB and quickly running ut of it so I will need to replenish my stock. I sure hope I find some with the old formula - I hear it's better than the new formula.

Still loving hemp seed oil! I mixed a little with gel for a braid out tomorrow.

Still enjoying my shea butter whipped with ceramide oils. I've been trying to do the low-mani thing via twists and twists outs, so to avoid touching my hair twice I spritz my hair 2x daily with a mix of water, AVJ and a teeny bit of hemp oil.

I need to get back on top of this because I'm noticing my hair isn't laying down as well as it used to.

Ok I just mixed up 1/4 cup of hemp seed oil with 1/2 cup of Taliah Waajid protective mist bodifier. I emulsified it until it was creamy! I used it today and my plan is to use it every other day for a month.

I'm still using hempseed oil as my sealant oil daily.

I also just started taking a spoonful daily internally-- not sure if I'll ever get use to ingesting oil, but I've read its good for many things.

So... I was just checking my hemp seed oil bottle yesterday and i realised it said it s best before september 2010... Does it mean I cannot use it after that date? Does anyone know why this oil has an expiry date?

I think the date is more useful if you are cooking with it or ingesting it. Unless its rancid you should be ok to use it on your scalp. I would refrigerate it though just to be safe. Hth

I been MIA . Last night I used a little Claudie's Tiffani Pomade on my hair (in kinkies, but concentrated on the hair in the twists, and a little on the scalp, edges, nape). The hair I can feels is so soft and smooth!

I really need to step up my ceremides again, because I definately notice the difference in my hair.

 

[gn1g]

I've been using Cerafix leav-in and it really strenghtens FINE hair. seems like my hair likes it better than protein.
