August 2007 Hits & Misses

HoneyDew said:
I've always thought the Hit and Miss threads were pretty casual. It really does not matter to me if someone tried something new the last week in July and it is posted in August. Actually if someone tried something new at the end of July and will be using it in August, I would prefer to see it in the August thread so that we can all see it. Honestly the monthly hits thread get old at the end and I think people are just excited to share the new stuff they are using.

I agree. I notice some of the post at the very end of the month get missed anyway.:ohwell:
 
Hits
I.C. Fantasia Gel-finally figured out how to use it:ohwell:
Co Washing w/ VO5 Strawberries & Cream-Why didnt you guys tell me about this:yep:
The decision to transition- Well I am in for a ride with this one:look:
 
Miss:

Kemi Oyl Conditioning Spray. It smelled good in the BSS, but on my braids :nono: STINK-CITY!

That's what I get for being a PJ. I have plenty of sprays already. :look:

I have this set. I got it the last time I got a double points certificate and I look forward to trying. I already love the styling cream and I look forward to using the shampoo and conditioner.

Do you love the set or just the conditioner?

I have the universal styling creme and I loved it (I don't use it anymore, but it's good stuff) the conditioner I just discovered. I didn't get the poo so you'll have to let me know what you think.

What!? More moisturizing & better than DR!!! :drool:
You know you're making me want to put on my shoes and head on down to Aveda right? :look:

Oh yeah, it's Aveda. I couldn't believe it. :yahoo:You should definitely see if your salon has samples.
 
HIT: Organix coconut milk, tahitian vanilla and shea butter poos, with the condish for the vanilla and shea butter poos. I love the fact that they are sulfate free and smell DIVINE. I'm gonna recheck SistaSlick's articles but I think these serve as a moisturizing poo and I will make a permanent switch to these. I love 'em already. NTM was good but they don't make me drool like these do. Hair feels great- and smells like hair candy:yep:
 
HIT: Hemp Seed Butter - I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this. Soft and moisturised hair, only downside is I don't like the smell

NOT SURE: Avacado Butter - have to try again

TO TRY: Macadamia Nut Butter - Don't know what to do with it so I'll try it on my hair

Hempseed is a little on the funky side.
Um, can I make a totally unsolicited suggestion? Try mixing the avocado and hempseed. It'll cut down on the smell and the avocado butter will add shine (or at least help you use it up). :)

ITA! I also don't rave about stuff I've been using for a weekend. :nono: I like to give it a good 30 days before I make up my mind.

Come on now, you know we raved about this. You gotta keep an eye on the hit and miss. :p I still keep a bottle of this in my shower. Even though I love my WRTC, I always keep the V05 Strawberries & Cream close. They are staples for co-washes! Glad you love it too.:grin:

Co-signing on this as I was in Marshall's Saturday and they had more professional products in there than I had ever seen there before. I almost lost my mind. They also had Healthy, Sexy Hair, ABBA, Joico and several more in addition to the above. I tried to remember them all so I could post, but I can't.

Where do you get these from? Are they online as well?
 
Surge MoistureAide - Miss/ ORS Oil Moisturizer HIT

Not real crazy about Surge Moistureaide. Maybe it needs some evoo, but it did not leave my hair w/ a good feeling.

On the other hand, I am loving ORS Oil Moisturizer. It feels and smells great. I cannot believe I ever used pink hair lotion as a staple in my household growing up.

Lawd have mercy...why oh WHY did I walk into this thread and see this? I am a bonafide Marshall's addict and need no more reasons to shop there!

**Luv is searching for her car keys now:sekret:***
