January 2013...What Did YOU Buy This Week? (Hair Care Edition)

IDareT'sHair Lita

It is always a working progress. But it is okay if you fall, it happens. I have products but Lost the GUILTY feeling about it. I know I don't need any more and am excited to use things up. I know that at the moment I don't need anything, but I will wait until they have sales at the end of the year. I am already compiling my list of get it's... LOL
For now..
I am just using things up...

JJamiah I'm happy about the use your stash-up,because I Revisted some products I had that needed to go/or just give away...My friends & family members are happy,they get free stuff that they would never purchase..lol..They all want to know,what's being given away next..lol..
Yep,it's a work in progress..

Happy Hair Growing!
 
Lita, that is so cool. I gave away products to my sister and best friend (she has two daughters as well) so I figured better to give some of this stuff to others who can use it. My best friend fell in love with one of the products and it is her staple. My sister who would use AJAX in her hair gets to use quality products not found in your cleansing isle of the supermarket.

:giggle:
 
:yep: :yep:

Yes... I definitely do. One n' Only Argan Oil Spray Treatment is wonderful. You really only need a little. I am heavy handed with it because I love the soft scent. LOL

Lita

JJamiah What! Ajax? Well I guess I can't talk,I put sunflower seed oil in my hair & yes,the one you cook with..My hair felt so good after..
Did the Ajax dry her hair out?it's pretty harsh..

Happy Hair Growing!
 
:lachen: Lita
she doesn't literally use ajax... BUT EVERYTHING ELSE IT SEEMS...

She washes her hair with Octagon soap, bath soap, dish detergent.... and anything thing she can put her hands on. So I joke and go what is next the Ajax.. or the BLeach...

:giggle:

I got her to use Wen... but she washed her hair daily and it wasn't cost effective.

THe soap and detergent made her hair so matte. She has a wonderful shine to her hair, very silky locs, that looked like a hair net and dull when she was soaping it up.
Now her hair has a shine again. :yep:

Jane Carter's wrap lotion
4 sets of Faux curl formers, I found a new vendor on Amazon that's selling 40 of the extra long and wide for $24 and 24 of the long and narrow for $13. I hope they are good! There was only one review, but it was positive. I bought two of each set because everyone says they never have enough. Wish me luck ladies.

Congrats on "Breaking" Your N/B!:lol:

I finally gave up on those.:look:

Gurl.....They didn't work for me, and I ended up 'breaking them and buying more' :blush:

The best I can do now, is set a monthly limit. I kept trying and failing No-Buys, so I finally gave up.:nono:

IDareT'sHair, that was first official time trying a "no-buy". I will not subject myself to that again. Too hard :ohwell: especially if I am going to hang out with you guys. I want pretty hairs too :lol:

cutenss Cant wait to hear your review...Next order from her,will be the moisturizer..

*With the use up your stash,I got rid of moisturizers that was just ok..So anything I keep can only be top notch..So far her products are on point.

Happy Hair Growing!

Lita, I had that moisturizer in my cart but removed at the last minute. See I was trying to do a "no-buy" with hair products, so I went to skincare products. And I bought a few things :look: So I was trying to show some restraint. And I bought some nail polishes, and on, and on...:spinning:

I really wanted to try that moisturizer. But since we having a standing code, then I will eventually. I could use a good moisturizer. And my order has already shipped. I got a confirmation email this morning :woot: Now that is what I am talking about :yep:
 
On Naturally Curly,I won the NuNAAT Lg Ultra Keratin & Curly Hair Treatmen System..It came in the mail with-in 2 days..

*Just wanted to share...

Happy Hair Growing!
 
:congrats: Lita. I always wondered if people really wins those contests.

cutenss When I opened my email & it said you won on Naturally Curly,I went to naturally curly site & my name was listed...I forgot I entered..lol..7 products in the box..

*So make sure you enter those 30 day challenges they have.Never know..It's a different line every day.

Happy Hair Growing!
 
I was in the hood bss and some old school beautician told me this stuff was really good:

Optimum Syntesis III Post relaxer Normalizer

Ensures even porosity on color, perm wave, relaxer service, hair extensions and braids.

Synthesis III Post Relaxer Normalizer is fortified with substantive polymers and proteins, panthenol and aloe vera that began neutralizing the hair even before you shampoo. Penetrates the hair shaft quickly to help reconstruct bonds, soften and smooth hair, close cuticles, improve elasticity. Brings hair's pH back towards normal and adds sheen.

Directions for use:
Apply and distribute 1 fl oz to hair.
Leave in 5 minutes.
Rinse throughly.
Proceed to step 3: Opticleanse Neutralizing Conditioning Shampoo.

Ingredients listed in alphabetical order(I'm not sure of the real sequence of them): acetamide mea, aloe vera gel, d&c brown #1, deionized water, hydrolyzed collagen, hydrolyzed keratin protein, hydrolyzed mucopolysaccharides, and collagen linoleate, linoleic acid, linolenic acid, arachidonic acid, sorbitol, wheat germ oil, jojoba, tocopherol, soluble sulfur, hydroxyethylcellulose, imidazolidinyl urea, lactic acid, methylparaben, panthenol, peg 60 lanolin, polymethacrylamidopropyltrimonium chloride, quartenium 15.

KCKT, I dilute this HEAVILY with water a little aloe vera juice and a little oil.
Porosity Control, this is my 1st purchase of this product since they reformulated and changed the packaging. Seems to work the same so far.

Mendex, i'm mad that they reformulated and made the product smaller. I purchased 8 0z for $12.99!!
