IDareT'sHair That's from Hangin' Out with You!:look:.....

You know how you do:lol: You gots the Oilzzzzzzzzzzz

:lachen: you know I just purchased coconut, mustard and sesame oils at the Indian grocer today :lick:

I will repurchase the oils that worked best for my hair in oil rinses, ayurvedic pastes and herbal infusions. The Indian grocer has food grade oils at reasonable prices e.g. $5.00 for 600 ml coconut oil, $3.50 for 500 ml mustard, almond or sesame oil.

IslandDiva08 You're the 2nd Lady I've read that Steams with VF and Lurves It. :drool:

Imma hafta' try that.:grin:

Maybe I'll try it this Fall/Winter.:lick:
 
Overnight pre-poo with grapeseed oil to length of hair and coconut oil, eucalyptus oil and tea tree oil to scalp only. Washing in the morning.
 
Mixed Garden Oil with my dc...

Oil rinsed with sunflower and WEN Lavender oils...

Massaged Claudie's Elixer into my scalp...

Hair is happeh now. :drunk:
 
AM: co-wash pre-oiled hair & detangle, apply Parachute coconut oil and Miss Jessie's Butter Cream. Braid hair before going to pool

PM: Oil rinse hair with rice bran/tea tree/mustard oils. Apply Parachute coconut oil to edges and ends.
 
Mixed up henna/amla/maka paste with coconut water, egg and home made ayurvedic oil (castor, coconut, mustard and sesame oils infused with brahmi, fenugreek, henna, hibiscus and maka).
 
Oil rinsed with sunflower, castor & WEN Lavender oils. One more use of the WEN and it'll be gone. I can't wait, I loathe how it smells.

Used the last of my beloved Isha today :cry: and sealed with enso Serum.

Massaged Claudie's Elixer into my scalp.
 
Haven't updated in a while. I have still been using oils but stopped greasing my scalp with them since it is too dang hot here. Instead, I've keep up with using my oil mix for pre-poos and sealing and have recently fallen for QB's Aethiopika butter which has rice bran oil in it (my new fave oil.)
I used some of that butter last night when cornrowing my hair for a braid-out today and it turned out very soft. :)
 
Oiled Up with Darcy's Pumpkin Seed Exlir.

Shay72 Should I buy the QB Moringa Softening Serum?:perplexed I'm torn.
Do I need it?

I have the EN Marshmallow & Moss Serum and the DB Exlir + a ton of other oils.

What do you think?

I was about to ask Shay about the serum, too. I haven't used it in a very long time. Joint is pricey!! :perplexed I still haven't decided if I'll get any Qhemet.

Anyway, I used some HTN Lotion and sealed with the oil. :lick:
 
@Brownie518 She responded in the U1 B1 and said she could 'take it or leave it' and that it would not be a Repurchase.:lol:

Nuff said. I won't be buying.:look:

Besides, I have EN Marshmallow & Moss Serum. DB Pumpkin Exlir, DB Oils and a ton of other Oils.:look:
 
FINALLY used up that stinkin' WEN Lavender. Good riddance. Ugh!

I couldn't remember which thread had the question. I do love Shea Moisture's Restorative Elixir and need to try DB's Pumpkin Seed one since I do have it. Is there a difference bw elixirs and serums?

Shay72 IMO They are both about the same consistency thick.:lol:

But, the SM Restorative Exlir reminds me of DB Oils (i.e. Peach, Apricot, Cherry, Watermelon) and are in a similar Spritz-Like Bottle and about the same weight adding the same type of Sheen.:yep:
