Im happy I have come across this thread because yesterday I decided to do a little search of indian grocery stores by me and surprisingly I found a bunch of them. So yesterday I made the trip to the store and purchased jasmine oil, brahmi oil, Reshma henna and my beloved shikakai bar which I have wanted from day one after hearing about ayurvedic methods. It was the funniest thing because of course the store is run by Indian men and women, mostly men. When I walked into the store I noticed a whole bunch of soaps behind the man at the cash register. So everyone is looking at me like " Is dis block cheek lost?" lol so I ask the man behind the counter if he sells the shikakai bar and he goes " Yes yes u have pronounced it cowwectly! The shikakai bar is vedy good for ya head, as is the henna". Im saying to myself, yea this man knows his stuff and the girls on LHCF would be proud of me because I will tell you this much.. it wasnt easy finding this daggone store but I was on a mission. It took me a whole hour to find this place, I had no gas in my car and my car was screaming for some Exxon oil lol. The first time I bought my vatika and amla oils , I bought them online. This store had everything I needed and then some. I was proud of myself.. so proud that when I got home I threw some jasmine oil in my hair and laid back on my pillow with a smile across my face. I cannot wait to try the shikakai bar but Im gonna wait to apply the henna because I dont trust myself with it too much. Whenever I deal with ANY type of powder I make a mess.
