I recently took out a couple products I want to use up before I purchase more. But it may take a longggggggggggggggg while. That makes me sad....I like buying and using new thangs :yep:/:(.
 
EnExitStageLeft I have about 3-4 things I should use up on or before next wash day (Tuesday).:yep:

I currently have 3 DC'ers in rotation (that's my limit). I hate having alot of things all open at once. I did open Jessicurl WDT yesterday, which made it 3.

I try to have no more than 1-3 "like" things opened at once.

:look:y'all know y'all lying:lol: i'm trying to be do better with being heavy handed so i don't end up with so many soul glo marks on my down coat and pillowcases....we're in this together hair sisters:yep: VIVA LA MOISTURE!!!


continued new hit:

sealing the last 2-3 inches of my hurr with castor oil. my ends don't feel dry and are less tangly so hopefully there will be fewer ssk's:yep:

i already m/s several times a week, but this gave me some added oomph!

But when I was referring to "less is more" I am honestly going to try to scale down on certain vendors in the New Year.

Iunno bout' all dat dere now :look:...

I just want to be able to order a 8 oz and not have to mix it with V05 just to make it stretch for 1 use :lachen:.

southerncitygirl.....I can do it :look:. Smh....well at least I think I can :lachen:. I just seriously can't stand not being able to try certain Dc'ers because they aren't offered in 16 oz. and such. Its such a bummer :down:.
 
EnExitStageLeft You are absolutely right. I hate buying 8 ounce Jars of stuff any more.

It's far more appealing when vendors offer 10-12-16 ounce Jars/Bottles. Lotions, Butters,Cremes (Stylers) I don't mind buying 8 ouncers.

But 8 ounce Cowashers and DC'ers I'm really trying to move away from.

This why I'm on this whole less is more thing. So that I can order a 8oz DC, conditioner or Cowash and not be sour about it going so fast.
 
@EnExitStageLeft

I think I may stick to those Lines that offer 10-16 ounce for my Cowashers and DC'ers. So, I will definitely be re-evaluating those in the New Year.:yep:

I've moved away from most of the 8 ouncers for Cowashing. I will pick them up tho' if they are On Sale.:look:
 
I was thinking of trying the Curl Junkie Cleansing Condish for the summer, but I dunno yet. I may just stick to Shea Moisture Purification Masque.....shoot...I dunno.
 
All my sulfate shampoos are a big MISS. They dried my hair out and made it look so dull after a while.

I am about to try some new hair products like Enjoy and TRI Design hair products, the shampoos of which are all sulfate-free. I guess I will have to give an update about those in January and/or February 2013.

New HIT:
Design Essentials Stimulations Moisturizing Conditioner
Keracare Restorative Hair Mask

Continued HIT:

Aubrey organics GPB Conditioner,
Redken Smoothdown Conditioner
Aubrey Organics White Camellia Conditioner

MISS:
VO5 Volumizing Conditioner - added no slip for my hair after cowashing like the vo5 Moisture Milks line - which I love.
 
Miss-

*Aunt Jackies poo
*Aunt Jackies Knot leave-in

The poo was awful on my hair & scalp..
The leave-in went on well,started to give slip,then dried my hair out..

What am I going to do? Use the poo as liquid hand soap for my bathroom,has a nice fruity smell..
The other,I will put in my bathroom lotion bottle..

*Both products felt good on my skin,so that's how I will get rid of it.

Happy Hair Growing!

Lita- Sorry "Knot On My Watch" didn't work out. I've used this, only to detangle on dry hair but then I wash it out immediately. I don't leave it in. When shampoo's don't work I use them as cleaners for the toilet bowl.

That shampoo is very creamy /oily though i reckon it would not work as toilet cleaner,as a hand wash/ shower gel absolutley!
 
Major Hit
Cutting the last relaxed ends! I'm now natural!

Hit
Jessicurl Deep Conditioning Treatment - Soft hair for days!

Miss
Straightening my hair at the stylist! After a week, I missed my curls, lol. I'll leave it as a miss since I will continue to only do it once (or, if I'm pushing it twice a year).

Hits-

Naturell-Coconut water & Mango Dc Treatment..Love it..Silky soft detangle hair..

Ambrosia- camomile honey wash..Very nice,lather well with-out stripping..

Natty-Natty Moist Acai leave-in..I used it as a rinse-out..Thin liquid that feels like silk..Gilds right thru..

Natty-Natty Butter Warm Coconut-Solid tex,but melts on contact..No greasy feel & in sinks right in..

Eco Styler Blue/for color treated hair...Gave the right amount of hold..The hold level on this products is 5.


Continued Old School Hit-Royal Crown Grease..Slightly warm grease before applying on the ends..Really absorbs with-out being heavy.


On the Fence-

3 Sisters-Sweet Honey Treatment-Very whipped texture,smells like berries,very silky when applied,but-after the Dc,my hair felt like I just had a strong protein treatment,Darcy's soften it right up..My hair was very strong/shiny..Not one hair came out..Nonthing..So this may make a nice protein treat if needed...I'll give it another chance because it stayed on longer then the directions..10-15min..I started cleaning up & forgot..Next time I will apply for ONLY 10min

Happy Hair Growing!
