@Lita

Every year around Labor Day the Battery goes out. (A little early this year)

And even though you remove it, it continues to chirp (beep) until you change it (Electrical wiring).

It is annoying as all get out especially at freakin 7:30 a.m. on a Saturday.. I had to wait until the store opened to get batteries

I was the 1st one in there this a.m......

 

[Lita]

Lita I saw that same Interview about Hip Hop.

I got my Ship Notice for my 2nd AV order yesterday.

I ordered them 1 day apart and couldn't figure out why she didn't/wouldn't send them together.erplexed

IDareT'sHair See that's the nonsense I'm talking about ^^^Mala,Mala,Mala...Sigh.

Happy Hair Growing!

@Lita

I also noticed on her site yesterday that she lowered several products.

Wonder if that's permanent? She had kind of out-priced herself on a few things.

Umm Yeah. I was shocked she didn't send those x4 items together especially since they were placed one day apart.

x2 on one order and x2 on the 2nd order.

 

[Lita]

IdareT'sDare It's time for me to change the batteries in here too...

*I have to replace on of my carbon monoxide detectors..

Happy Hair Growing!

Curlmart is a lot more economical when it comes to BM & Shipping. Especially when they have Sales.

 

[FelaShrine]

Thanks for that tip IDareT'sHair

Never used the products before but if it turns out that I like them, curlmart it will be. Shipping from the actual site is just too obnoxious

They both torn my hair up. I haven't used cones in like forever. I guess my hair rebelled them. I will stick to cone free products like I have been going for three years now!
