Ladies in Europe

Hello ladies,

Just my 2 cents to say that this thread is really a good idea !! Good that it is a sticky now !!!
If anyone has an idea where i could find V05 conditioners at a decent price, i would be more than interested....
 
Okay, I'm getting to like the BE split end cream more now. Last night I sectioned up my hair and applied some to my new growth, right down to the ends and sealed with some meadowfoam seed oil. I then plaited each section and donned my scarf. Well this morning I could run my fingers right through my 3.5 month post relaxer new growth with no problems, so this may be a keeper! The only problem with this is I don't really see it on the shelves that much and online it doesn't seem to be in stock anywhere. :ohwell:

Not sure whether you guys are curious about the Silicon Mix raves on here, they sell it at Lil Missy Salons, http://www.lilmissysalons.com/silicon-mix-c-10.html . I near gulped at the price though, it's three times as much as it costs in the States. :rolleyes: although I suppose it will still be cheaper to buy it here (there are also vendors on ebay too) rather than shipping it from the US.
 
How often do you intend on steaming your hair Stella?

We must do a steam challenge! :D

ETA: Yeah I've been using the HE Beautiful Ends too, it's okay, not sure if I like it as much as my ORS Shea Butter though. I'll keep using it though til it's finished.


Hey Cream Tee I ma thinking of steaming once a week in spring and summer (i.e. now and when winter rolls round I will see if I can continue at once a week or if I need to up that).


I defo think we should have a steam challenge patched onto the delightfully delicious deep conditioning. Cream Tee why don't you start one??? :yep:


ETA: What is this I hear about ORS Shea Butter :sekret: - I am curious bc I noticed our hair usually likes similar things....

Stella, have you used the steamer yet?


Nope, having my first whirl tomorrow after I get my distilled water.

Hubby was too tired to get it today.

Btw ladies any one got one of these....I need to make some space in my spare room and I am now selling my hood dryer and thinking of replacing it with this one:

Do not get that! My cousin has it in white and its sooo annoying, notice the hinges behind the lady? well they keep coming undone and the dome falls down while you are drying your hair :ohwell:

I tried to use it once and I got livid after 5 minutes!

Thanks for the heads up EL's

Does she have the Rio one or the Babyliss one?

I have heard awful things about the Babyliss one but the Rio one appears to get good reviews.

Thanks a lot !!!! :yay:I don't live in UK but in France but i am very often in London, so i will make sure to definitively check this BSS next time i'm there so i can stock up !!!! I really like the american brand much more compare to the european version....
 
I've seen it at Superdrug. There was also a special offer at Tesco a while ago but I don't know how much it costs. Sorry.

Thanks ! I have seen it last time that there was nex V05 bottles but i was not sure of the product, it looked like the same as the US version but different packaging...that's why i did not pick it up..because the US Version is really the one i like...but now i regret it...:wallbash::wallbash: as my stock is almost over....i should have taken one bottle at least to try !!

Agreeing with EL, it a pain. Bought one years ago, used it twice and never again. You had to be a Mathematician to calculate size of head, size of rollers, table height and chair height for a comfortable experience.:wallbash: Did my brain in. :wallbash: I got myself one of those soft top ones and never looked back.

Sunrise did you buy the Babyliss of the Rio One?

I have heard all the complaints about the Babyliss one hence why I am interested in the Rio one....:scratchch
 
I've been using the HE Beautiful Ends on my relaxed hair as a moisturiser for a few days now. At first it was wow but now it's just ok. It does work wonders on my new growth though (it leaves it so soft). I think I'll use it on my new growth but go back to my original liquid leave in for the length of my hair. This was my first creamy leave in and I've just realised that I prefer a liquid leave in because the creamy was a bit thick.

IMO, I think the HE BE would be fantastic for a natural head.

What do you guys think?

I used H.E all last week.. I like it but at the same time I dont like it.. it smells lush and is really moisturising but I have to wash my hair more often so I dont get product build up on my hair..

I've run out now so I'm back to Avon daily leave in... I'll prob buy H.E if I see it on offer as it hasn't lasted me very long.

Yeah, it was a bit heavy on the length of my hair. That's why I think I'll use it on my new growth. I wash my hair every week and to be honest I want to wash my hair again so it would be soft and bouncy again.
IMO because it's heavy, I think it's better on natural hair.
 
Eco Styler Olive Oil Styling Gel - has anyone seen this gel over here yet? The reviews so far seem great but I've yet to find it......

Your post just made me look for it. :lol:
I found it on amazon.

I really was trying to stay out of this thread, but now I feel I need this gel in my life.
And if I'm ordering from amazon I might as well order some more.
 
Does anyone know where I can find ANY ecosyler gel in London, like actual shop location.
Have been looking for a while :) thanks in advance!
 
A hair shop on plumstead high street. I have also bought some in SW London, somewhere between Tooting and Streatham, near a big Primark store- sorry I cannot be more specific I cannot for the life of me remember exactly where. I have not found the aloe vera one in London, just the others.
