March 09: What did you buy this week?

I bought Kinky-Curly Come Clean and the spiral spritz. I like the spritz but the shampoo is going back. My hair felt so hard but I love the rest of their products.
 
I bought Hask Placenta Leave-In, Aphogee 2 Min. Reconstructor (since it was getting rave reviews from the ladies on here) and Folicure Moisturizing Conditioner.
 
i bought a sample of Miss Jessie's curly pudding. i've been eyeing those products for years and still didn't think it was worth the $8 sample. we'll see how my braidout turns out.
 
i have a package waiting for me at the post office so i will be picking it up friday morning. i have no idea what the product is lol because i ordered so much stuff.
i think its either darcy botanicals or karen body beautiful.
 
I went to sally's and i restocked on my proline softner moisturizer 2 bottles and i also purchased Sally's version of Paul Mitchell Leave in Conditioner.
 
More like this month:

-Giovani Direct LA hold gel--on clearance at Duane Reade. AWFUL! Used it to smooth edges while wearing a bun and they came out HARD! Also it smells funky
-Giovani Direct hairspray (whatever its called)--also on clearance. The smell is too horrifying for me to really try it. Smells like alcohol-filled hairspray even though its supposed to be natural.
-ORS wrap lotion (messing up the name)--this worked well on my roller set experiment!
-Bentonite Clay--great stuff. Used it on my face and my hair (dry). Hair came out soft after I rinsed it (was scared because its so HARD when you put it in your hair like its gonna snap!)
 
I just bought the Jilbere Steam Flat Iron from Sally's (online) for $29.99. It is their "knockoff" of Conair's Steam Flat Iron that sells for $99.
 
:drunk: I'm trying to prevent shedding soooooo I purchased:

Aubrey Organics GPB protein shampoo
Aubrey Organics GPB protein conditioner
Aubrey Organics White Camellia and Jasmine Shine conditioner--I've noticed it has bad reviews from this board...
Henna Neutral/Clear for conditioning purposes


Hey I really need the protein!!!!!!!!! :spinning:

I like this conditioner alot, didn't like the shampoo as much.
 
I was out looking for ecosytler gel yesterday with no success. They had IC but that gave me helmet hair long ago. So, I picked up some garnier fructis curl sculpting cream-gel for my fatty twists. I like it so far it was nice and slippery. I shall see how well it protects against frizz. I was doing the white girl hair toss this mornin' & had mama and them laughing.
 
TJ's Nourish Spa Condish
TJ's Tea Tree Tingle Condish
Attempted to buy coconut milk from Harris Teeter but the shelf was cleared out . I'm blaming ya'll!
 
I bought nothing this week. I still cant believe it. But the week is not over yet. I have to stay home tomorrow...lol.
 
Oh yeah I also got the Denman D4 (to replace my older D-whatever...it was sliding out such that my hair would get caught). And another Aubrey GPB conditioner.
 
I bought a few things this weekend. I really made out well!

At beautyfirst I had a $10 off coupon and they took 20% off on top of that because of their reusable shopping bag I bought.

Anyway for only $36 I got

-2 jars Real Control Mask
-1 tube of the the Real Control Moisturizing Cream
-1 free : full size Redken Extreme Anti-Snap Leave in
-a really cute shopping bag (everyone has one now :rolleyes:)

Not sure I will like that leave-in, but it was free so we will see. I used the Real Control on my son's 3C hair once and it was so soft so I decided to go ahead and get these for him.

Edited to add:
From Sally's Ion Emergency Service 3 step kit - I love this stuff. I don't need it right now, but I like to keep one in the house.
