Dont tell nobody, but I STILL use....

[SimpleKomplexity]

I'm just happy no one said pink oil moisturizer lol mm mm good!!

I'm a pj so I don't use anything that I used to use sad I know! I'm inti the sulfate free keracare line now

 

[frizzy]

I said something about it....

 

[BlaqBella]

Too funny!! Cherry Pie you're a mess girl!
But on a serious note i'm a braider (when i feel like it) and i have to schedule people around my nails (unless i'm broke...then they don't matter) because
1) Most people here (where i live) still use Let's Jam for their braids.
2) Do ya'll know that stuff takes my nail polish off EVERYTIME!
3) It has sodium hydroxide("lye" someone correct if i'm wrong) in it(it's low on the list but....). Conditioners work just as well (i think better if you use a scarf for about 20-30 minutes). I refuse to ever use this in my hair again.

Love my cones! And Blue Magic is perfect as a base for the scalp during your relaxers

 

[Solitude]

theres such thing as natural grease??!!!!??!!?!?!! :bouncegre

**off to research!!!!

Right now I'm trying out Hairveda's Almond Glaze and I plan to try Boundless Tresses Hair Balm. Here's a link to an old thread:

Honestly, I see absolutely nothing wrong with using a petroleum-based product to seal and style. This thread is making me want to go buy a bottle of Sulpher 8 .

A fine tooth Comb......

Yay!!!! I'm not the only one still using a fine tooth comb. I haven't figured out a way to rollerset without it.

What! I use that on my girls' edges almost DAILY. It gives them the softest silkiest waves...the smell also just takes me back to childhood. I'm not a fan of Blue Magic, but give me some DAX any day of the week! LOL...

That's my ish. I started a whole thread about Dax Kocatah. There's actually no "bad" ingredients in the kocatah, just the smell . I still use it anyway, along with Dax Coconut oil grease - it has one of the bad ingredient, either mineral oil or petroleum, but it works great for my braidouts. I use the Dax Vegatable Oil shampoo to wash it out, if necessary.

My mom's best friend has always used a mix of Sulpher 8 and Dax and her hair has been between MBL and WL forever (she cuts it back to MBL).

 

[shtow]

I "moisturize" with serum and my hair has taken off!

*shrug* It likes what it likes

 

[leigh.hill]

I brush my edges but I don't comb everyday. No need to for me.

I still use my oil sheen and Crisco. I'm not giving either up.

Did you just say Crisco? Okay, you win!

~Sneaks in room~

Yeah I use sulfur 8, Blue Magic with Castor oil grease, and Mizani h2o Intense Night-Time treatment has mineral oil in it and I it a lot. For some reason these three just gives me fantastic results everytime.

I know, that's the whole idea. I can't believe I can't let these items go. I disgust me sometimes,

Njoi Creations on Esty has a "natural" hair grease that I LOVE LOVE LOVE ... she calls it "Herbal Hairdressing"...It replaced my old Indian Hemp Grease...

 

[gissellr78]

I still comb my hair daily and sometimes get a fly Dominican blow out....yea i know am naughty

 

[Tee]

There are people that don't use brushes?

Could never be me.

ummm...YEAH. There are people :mob: around here who think combs and brushes are the debil. :heated:

But me and mine .....are thick as thieves. I am not giving up my boar bristle brush.

 

[Lady S]

Products with mineral oil.

I don't use it, but. . .um. . .there is a possibility that I may have brown gel in my possession. Allegedly. Don't judge.

 

[sunnieb]

I comb everyday whenever I feel like it. The 'no combing' movement missed me!

 

[tada1]

Dax!!!!! I know. but there is still some left in the house when my brother was trying to get waves... It hold my edges and nape down like WHAT!!!!!
Shhhhhh Dont tell Nobody (pop's Voice)

bahahahah im sorry but this right here takes home the trophy! my mom used to use dax when i was in grade school and at the time, Dax was for the "big girls" so you can imagine what I was using if Dax was too high end.

[Prudent1]

Plain old petroleum jelly for sealing during braid-outs, twist-outs, or wet bunning.

 

[cluelezz]

I have a bottle of pink lotion under my bathroom sink. I have trouble throwing things away. I actually used it maybe twice this year because I was too broke to re-up on good products. It made my twists look nice and shiny though. I might use it again.

I use a brush. And it's not soft either. I use a hard one. It lays my edges down and it feels good.

There's mineral oil in most of the products I use.

grease. I think I might buy some Blue Magic Coconut sometime this week, even though the only ingredients are "Petrolatum, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil, Fragrance"

 

[Solitude]

Now, see this thread made me pull out my Softee Indian Hemp hair grease. Smells heavenly
