Blue, I'm speechless.:blush: SMH.:nono:

So, do you think it was the Ginormity of your orders?
IDareT'sHair Noooo!! I don't think it's the size of my orders at all. The 8/1 order was 6 items (2 clarifying shampoos and 4 strawberry cleansers). I see some of yall's orders were larger than that and even though some ordered after me, they've gotten their orders. I don't understand either.

And, no I'm not convo'ing anymore. Her last communication was that she mailed my packages last week but didn't get tracking numbers for them.

I sit and wait.

Might be time to escalate with PayPal...
 
I emailed her three times. Twice last Saturday and Monday. I haven't heard anything yet. Well I will wait. Cause I do want to put in another order.
 
Anyone used the cleaning conditioners yet. What's your review. I used the coconut lime. I see it's more of a strengtening conditioner. I really like the smell. My hair was still easy to comb thru. I'm going to try the strawberry one next week, hopefully it's more moisturizing.
 
@The Princess

The Coconut Lime Cleansing Conditioner is definitely a Summer Fav!:lick:

I think it cleans well, has a tad bit of protein, smells good and I like it.:grin:

I still follow up with a R/O conditioner as I do with any/all Cleansing Conditioners.

I have the Strawberry which is w/o Protein and will try it soon.

Sorry about what UR going thru Pompous Blue :sad:

OAN: I am SO glad I bought this stuff during a 50% off sale or I'd be really pissed. I am not in love with the strawberry cleanser at all. As a new natural I thought I was jumping the gun being wary of -cones but my gut was right. My hair has been dryer lately and I knew it had to be this since it's the only product I use containing cones. I clarified today with Kinky Curly Come Clean and I feel 100% better. I have two unopened bottles I'm willing to sell/exchange. The only HQS product I'll continue to use is the pineapple DC.

I understand that -cones don't have an ill effect for some/most people but I don't understand for the life of me y a product geared mainly towards naturals would contain dimethicone. I think she'd been better off using a PEG modified (water-soluble) cone, especially since this is a co-cleanser :confused:

she replied to me the next day....... Strange
 
Well I actually "CONVO" with her yesterday and she replied back today. She stated she will ship my items tomorrow. Im so excited. I guess the email is not the preferred method.

Im good now. I really like her products and will continue to order.

This package has my DC's so I really can't wait to get them. Im thinking my order should be here, by next weekend.

That's great! I will continue to order as well... I love her products as well and can't wait to try the clarifying poo!:)
 
Everything came today except for my Peppermint Conditioner. I placed a second order a few days ago so I asked her to ship them together. I really like the GM's texture. It absorbed entirely into my skin (did a patch test) and there was absolutely NO residue but my skin was moisturized. No allergic reaction at all. So far, I am impressed. :yep:

The smells: Some smell great, some don't smell at all, and the strawberry cowash smells a little like strawberry/cherry cough syrup. My SO likes the mango/pineapple/coconut/lime scents. lol He made a face at the strawberry cowash though. :ohwell: :lol:

I didn't love the strawberry either. :nono: Even though it has cones, there wasn't enough slip for me. Detangling was harder than usual. And a bit too much hair went down the drain. Officially not a fan, and I'll be sticking to the Coco Lime. It did moisturize pretty well for me, but I'll be handing it to my boys...so far their hair loves it.
 
Soooo did anyone receive products in containers without labels?

half my order has no labels I ordered 2 of everything and only one of each has a label on it.
a peppermint smelling thing (not sure what it is) also does not have a label on it. I think she said it was a sample of something.

Anyhoo the ones I've tried feel nice in my hair - tried the GM and 5 day.

Im so torn, these products feel good but Im a lil salty over the whole experience
 
I did get my products today. I still don't know whose 2 tracking numbers she gave me.

She did upgrade two of my trial size items to full size because of the delay, so that was nice of her.
 
I washed my hair with the white tea and lemon clarifying shampoo, conditioned with coconut mango repair mask, used the greaseless moisture as a leave in and sealed with the puttyful.

The result was poofy hair with no wave or coil definition.

I haven't pinpoint the ingredient that turns my hair from coily to cottony but whatever it is in some of or all of the products I used last night. I knew I was in trouble when I couldn't finger comb my hair. I had to break out the denman.

My hair laughed at the puttyful. I sat under the dryer with a scarf to tie down my edges and when it dried I had a halo of fuzz all the way around my head. I ended up using the ORS edge control to get my hair to lay down.

I will try the products again to do twists, maybe they are not meant to be used for 'out' styles.
 
My products came today and they smell yummy. I cannot wait to try them out after I co-wash on Wednesday.

Well thats not good at all.
 
Crackers Phinn I wonder if it's because of the level of glycerin? Even when I use Eco Styler... if I have a product with a higher glycerin content underneath it's over. :nono: And I get frizz.

I haven't tried the Puttiful fully (except on a tiny piece of sideburns. *hush*) :lol: I need to try it on my entire head, or atleast to hold down my buns. I'm wondering what the hold is like.
 
still waiting on my order, I was told it would ship out either friday or sat... does she send out tracking # or does she just mail them out??? I checked etsy and it just says NOT SHIPPED :(.......

Girl, I got my order and my tracking still says not shipped.

You just gotta ride yo order out with this vendor.
 
I got a tracking number with my order but it sat for a while before it was shipped. I didn't mind though because I expected a longer wait than 2-3 weeks.
 
Well, I've decided that I will order from her again. I really like the GM and that peppermint DC (staples). I still have to try the honey pineapple mask but I'm not so in love with the coco-mango mask yet. I do feel that the co-cleansers smell weird but it doesn't last long, the GM smells like lemon pledge, and the masks are also a little weird but as long as it doesn't smell like medicine or like something died I'm ok with it.
 
Twisted my hair with the 5 day moisture ... today I have a soft fluffy twist out. I really like this product.

My hair never ever liked shea butter but it loves this product

Im gonna co-wash with the coconut lime and re-twist tomorrow night so I'll report on that on friday.
 
I Dc'd last night with the honey pineapple mask and my hair loved it. My hair was so easy to detangle and I used the GM as a leave-in and my hair is still soft and moisturized. Will order again.
