Don't do that to me. You know I'm weak. You know I'll like it. You know I'll suck a few people in and then you know I'll be sent to the corner.

[Aggie]

Well my natural hair feels similar! It was perfect on relaxed hair, and I know that my for needs protein, but wheat protein sucks for my hair. I need to buy a few at a time after this though, so I'm looking for other sellers. Ebay might be ok, not sure yet.

@JerriBlank

I did a search and found it on www.beautyofnewyork.com and they have it in the liter size jar as well, in case you're interested.

Amazon
Great Lakes Gelatin (green tin)

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Great Lakes Gelatin (green tin)

@mzteaze

How will you use this?

 

[mzteaze]

@mzteaze

How will you use this?

I will add it to my tea or smoothies. It's the non clumping version so you can add to room temperature liquids without worrying about thickening or clumps.

I want to try this vs buying or making bone broth.

[KinksAndInk]

I've been doing well with my no buy.

Honey's Handmade KGB Groupon Deal

@divachyk
Good Luck..........

 

[mzteaze]

What are the benefits?

Supposed to help hair and nails. Protein is always a good thing.

 

[nothidden]

Restocked on Beautifully Bamboo tea. I should be good for the rest of the year.

 

[divachyk]

I already feel setup because it's out of stock. Why run a Groupon deal? @IDareT'sHair I'll dispute with Groupon if need be if she's unable to fulfill the order. I have until Nov to use the Groupon.

 

[Rastafarai]

SiameseTwists (decided to try out some new products)
Raspberry Henna Cream
Pumpkin Coconut Hairdress
Pomegranate Black Seed Hair Cream

Here is the consistency of the above products in the order of Pumpkin Coconut, Black Seed Hair Cream and Raspberry Henna:






The thickest consistency appears to be the pumpkin coconut. I'm loving how that Henna cream look and feel though. Looking forward to reporting back on how it is on my hair.

Alright ya'll, I'm done with buying products....like FOR REAL!

 

[mandii]

Somehow I managed to (almost) clear out Ulta's stock of the Shea Moisture professional line... It was on clearance and my hair loves it.... I spent less than $50 for it all...

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@mandii
Delicious looking haul-candy!

 

[NaturallyATLPCH]

Nothing...

I posted this in the HQS thread, but thought I'd put it over here as well.

Hydroquench Systems Order Update:

I texted Bianca today about our products at 12:50pm and she responded at 1.31pm. I told her that I wasn't very fond of being ignored as a customer and that she should at least try to answer her customers queries even if she says products will ship in 2 weeks, 3 weeks, just say something! Don't just ignore us because doing so only hurts her business. I told her we want to support her but she has to meet us halfway.

Could you believe it but she actually called me back. Naturally I was shocked because I wasn't actually expecting a response.

I asked her about the shipping timeline of our products and that there was a major concern on the forum in regards to it. She indicated that she will be shipping out products this weekend and that she had suffered a nervous breakdown which she will tell us all about soon.

Well we will see how this goes. I will give her a little more time now that she actually called me back.

Lord she is STILL having issues?

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@NaturallyATLPCH
Yasss....and several of us purchased over July4. I have an escalated PayPal going on right now.

Hopefully, I'll get my money back.

 

[Aggie]

Lord she is STILL having issues?

@NaturallyATLPCH

Yes she is and I made a dispute with Paypal last night. So I'll see what happens

 

[flyygirlll2]

@IDareT'sHair @rileypak @Aggie I just received a text message from HQ with a pic of the package. She said she included an extra GM for the delay.

Mind you, I texted her a while back so this is the first time I've recieved a response.

@IDareT'sHair I was surprised with that text but at the same time, this situation has been a mess smh. It's shouldn't be this much of a hassle.
