I'm in!

Today I used SSI Coconut Quench Moisturizer (sample) and oiled by scalp with APB Ayurvedic Oil then did a quick scalp massage.

 

[caliscurls]

I'm in.

Oyin Hair Dew, Bekura, Palm Tapioca Hair Cream, and a smidgen of MYHC Buttery Soy

 

[Barbara]

I'm in! I have an assortment of oils, butters, lotions, creams and pomades that I need to work through in 2015. I might add a few more oils to round out my collection but don't intend to buy anything else in 2015.

I apply Liquid Gold growth oil to my scalp 2x a week.

For the COB/P portion of LCOB/P, I just started using Oyin hair dew, Claudie's Montego Bay and Oyin burnt sugar pomade. I'll use these 4-5 times a week. I really like this combo and will be using it at least for the next 6 weeks or so.

You're right. I have too much stuff, too.

I really need to use all of my products before buying anything; otherwise, they'll go bad . . . and I just can't afford to throw anything out.

In the meantime, I just add new product names to my hair care list. My money can't be spent on non essentials anymore, but one item a year is okay, though.

Used its a 10 leave and the pomade shop sweet simplicity styler

I'm in!
I started using shea butter, jbco hair food, and burnt sugar pomade a few months ago and love what they have been doing for my hair. I plan to buy hairveda almond glaze as my last one. Heavy sealing works for me. All my mom used on my hair was water and grease when I was growing up and my hair was down my back.

How do you all usually wear your hair when using butters? My hair can get stiff sometimes so it usually stays in a bun or braid..

Welcome. Nice to Have You.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Used Pure Cold Pressed Pumpkin Seed Oil

I'm finding that products with mango butter make my hair extremely soft. The style depends on my mood and the season. Lately it's been buns and halo or milk maid twists. Summer it's normally a wash and go. Spring and fall it's twists outs. I need to learn more long lasting protective styles for when I don't want to be bothered with my hair.

A question was accidentally posted in the 2013 butter and creme thread. The question was is there a less expensive alternative to Green Magic? I would like to know this also.

I'm not sure if there is any cheaper product that compares to Green Magic consistently wise etc.

[CeeLex33]

Moisturized my mini twists with h2o, SheScentIt's Coco Creme Leave In, a little Liquid Gold's Whipped Marshmallow on the ends and sealed it all up with Mission Condition's Blueberry Star Glaze Oil- yum yum yum!!!

Great! Welcome.

 

[Babygrowth]

Mixed my Megatek mix and my LG oil into one big bottle because I'm greedy and tired of alternating. Will use every day or every other day.

Added Jakeala nappy butter and parfait to my ends yesterday because my set failed. I love this stuff.

 

[PlainJane]

Misted hair with water and applied oyin hair dew. Sealed with burnt sugar pomade. I need to commit to doing this twice a week.

 

[Ltown]

Used jakeala, coffee balm, too waxy and thick for me.

 

[sexypebbly]

Used oyin sugar berries

 

[meka72]

After I rinse my deep conditioner out, I'll M&S with ST kink drink (plus s-curl to the ends), OH hair dew, Claudie's Montego Bay oil and OH burnt sugar pomade. I'll do this at least 4 times this week.

I'll also alternate my prescription salve and LG sulfur growth oil applied to my scalp.

 

[ms-gg]

As I am twisting cream is a hit for me. Bought a 2 Oz sample and my twists look good for this to be winter. Nice and shiny. Will commit to a 8 Oz jar next.

IDareT'sHair there's just something so soothing about slathering butter all over from head to toe!
