Dear LHCF sisters,
I've been a member here since 2008-ish. I don't post much, because you all know EVERYTHING...who needs my 2 cents???
Because I've had so much faith in you all over the years, I've ordered every flatiron, serum, conditioner, oil, treatment...well you all know the list goes on...
I received my purchase of 7 Chagrin Valley sample shampoo bars in the mail yesterday. I hit up Walmart for some Garnier Sleek & Shine Condish (love it) a few days ago, along with some Argan Oil from Sally's (not so much love yet)...UPS just confirmed that my Maxiglide is on the way (btw did anyone see my post about the H2Pro flat iron that I purchased um...2 months ago that I loved more than the Sedu that I purchased Spring '09?). And for some reason, last night, while my husband was rambling about something, I ordered some Carusso steam rollers (Iphone's are bad for PJ's). I'm sitting here scratching my head because I'm trying to figure out where I'm going to live when he puts me and my hair products out.
Oh, and I spent $185 on a sew-in last Tuesday. So yea, now which one of you is taking me and my one-year old dd in, because as soon as he finds out
I'm blaming all of you.
In other news,
I shampooed my leave-out and sew-in with an Anita Grant shampoo bar, mixed some Desert Essence Organics Coconut Conditioner (whole foods) & Garnier Sleek & Shine for in overnight DC. I rinsed the next morning and did a final acv rinse. My hair was SUPER DUPER soft and moisturized.
Both of the conditioners are new additions and I don't think I've ever properly used acv before, so what did it--what made my hair so soft?
Later gators,

UPDATE! UPDATE!
The good news is: I got my MaxiGlide yesterday
The bad news is: I wasn't the one to open the box.
Ok here's how it went down:
Dum~Dum, Mr. UPS was late. I knew hubs was on his way because he called, so I'm already pacing trying to think of a plan of action. As soon as he got home, I'm thinking, "this package has to be here before 7p." It was already after 6. So I said "Self, we're going with our instinct on this one." As soon as my husband walked in the door I grabbed my coat and said: "I'm going to the mailbox." We live in a condo, so our boxes are at the end of our street, which is also the entrance to our complex at the top of a hill...so I thought, I'd catch the UPS guy...brilliant, right?
Well...I got about half-way up the hill and lo and behold, what's this? The big-brown-truck! I'm thinking I'm soooo smart now. (There's no where to turn around at the end of our street so UPS usually comes in and backs down the street.) So, as Mr. UPS is backing down the street, I decide to get his attention and try and catch him before he passes me so I grab my package before he gets to my door. (I also decide that I need to cross the street so that I would now be out of view if hubs looks out of the window.) Some of you may not know but we got about an inch of snow in Atlanta last Friday that darn near paralyzed the entire city. There's still ice on the hill by my house...so now...the truck is backing up right in front of me...and I'm sliiiiiding backwards down this hill.
After I finally make it to the truck:
Me: Hey do you have a package for me?
UPS: Yea, I do. {smiles}
Me: Oh well, I can take it, I'm on my way to get my mail.
UPS: Ok, go ahead it'll be at your door when you get back.
Me: :-( [almost runs the rest of the way up the hill to the mailbox]
Back at home:
[He's just pulling up because he had to go to one of my neighbor's first]
UPS: [says to me] Aww, I'm sorry...I rung the bell, it's habit.
Meanwhile, I'm staring at the label on the box pretending to be perplexed as to where it came from.
Hubs: [opens door, waves] grabs box.
Me: [thinking] aww, shizzle.
I had to go around back because my husband who has been "so sick" has yet to pull our garbage can around back since Friday, so I took it upon myself; thinking I wouldn't look hasty trying to get to the box...you know...
In the house
HUBS: (with box already open) What's this?
Me: I don't know, probably something from Nana for the baby, I could't really see the address on the label.
HUBS: Naw, this is some hair stuff.
Me: {attitude now} well, if it's some hair stuff, then it's hair stuff.
{{{{{{silence}}}}}}
Me: It's the flat iron I told you about the other day. It was only $30 something dollars (knowing I selected the small payment plan from HSN just in case he checks the statements...)
HUBS: hmph.
Then I started kissing up. "Can I get you anything?" "How do you feel?" "How do you feel now, sweety?" "You should lay down." I'm so tired...I stayed up all night trying to make sure he didn't check that bank statement. Shoot, I can't even enjoy my steam rollers that came today. Gotta go...I have a box to hide...
