Pj Support Thread 2010 Pt.1

[Brownie518]

I finally used up all of my YTC mud mask. So that means I am using Sitrinillah, Jessicurl WDT, and AOHSR as my moisture dcs. When Qhemet comes out with her dc and I fall in love with it then I will move AOHSR back to cowash status or out completely. Seriously it is painful getting that and AOGPB out of the bottle. I know I transferred AOGPB to a jar but it was not fun .

When is this supposed to premier????

QB haven’t given a date release date yet but it will be sometime this year. I can’t wait :bouncegre.
Here is the announcement I received from QB; ‘Although we don't have a date, a lusciously rich deep conditioner will make its appearance sometime this year!’

I know exactly what you mean! I don’t even need a new DC but it’s a QB product and I can’t overlook this delicious sounding new addition ..... I'm so weak

Afternoon ladies

I've been busy all day, cleaning, doing laundry, and categorizing my products.

I used up Victoria's Secret So Sexy Shine Serum today. Not going to be a repurchase, the only thing I would repurchase from that line is the Moisturizing conditioner, I can use that and not wear perfume for days it smells so good and lingers too.

I also used up my Nu Gro leave in, this was one stinky sucker I'm in my house smelling like garlic now Everytime I turn my head I want to gag. I'm starting to realize I am very sensitive to smells.

Who me?

 

[Shay72]

Lawd knows I shouldn't even be asking this....but how did you like the YTC? :scratchch

I like it a lot. I just want more product for my money. It's $12.99 for 8.45 oz which isn't that bad but I only get two uses out of it. So I'm moving on. It leaves my hair very soft and moisturized. I tried the condish and hated it but really liked the mud mask.

When is this supposed to premier????

Same thing Isabella said.

 

[Vintageglam]

Y'all a trip. Talking about what new products you can't wait to try and buy in a pj thread. Its like Alcoholics talking about what drink they're gonna have after the AA meeting. Just friggin priceless I tell you !!! LMAO and ROFL !!!

Well if people can make more wise and informed decisions from talking about their experiences, I do not see the problem.

 

[Charz]

Lawd knows I shouldn't even be asking this....but how did you like the YTC? :scratchch

Like Shay said, its too expensive for the amount of product. I would only try it if it is on massive sale. Don't wanna fall in love with something though that is expensive.

You had NuGro too! I have 3 bottles of the stuff plus some of the conditioner and a jar of the DC that I have to find a way to get through. They sent me the mild scent too and it still is off. I actually like the conditioner, but its too watery for the price (mostly water IMO), it really lays the hair smoothly - both textured and bone relaxed. The DC does the same thing. But I want it all....great product and great smell.

 

[Eisani]

It appears that my hair loves sintrinillah. I will know for sure after I finish roller setting. I think I am going to stick with it and banana brulee.

See, this post reminded me that I have a brand new jar of Banana Brulee I bought so I could revisit. Looks like it's time to take inventory.

I'm the same I can't use a product if it smells bad, I don't care how well it works for my hair.

I liked the shampoo, smelt like cherries, and yeah the conditioner was really thin, I never tried the DC though.

 

[Shay72]

Like Shay said, its too expensive for the amount of product. I would only try it if it is on massive sale. Don't wanna fall in love with something though that is expensive.

That's a great point about not falling in love with an expensive product. I always ask myself would I pay full price for something if it wasn't on sale. Qhemet is my only expensive product line. It's worth it IMO because a little bit goes a long way and that's a sign of quality in my book.

 

[Minty]

I added sandalwood to the spray bottle and its tolerable. I only apply at night and I have the alcohol based product (the alcohol free moisturizer is the strongest).

...did it work for you BTW?

I had the alcohol free one I didn't notice a difference in growth or manageability. I only bought one of each product though so I doubt I would have seen results that quickly, plus I wasn't very consistent with it.

What's funny is Sunshyne from Hairlicious just started using the line and she seems to love it.

 

[Minty]

I think the line is funny that way. Like I said the conditioner is great...but after revisiting the ingred list in my head, the apple pectin always stuck out to me as the possible reason my strands lay so smoothly after rinsing.

It really did help with shedding though...but again it was the garlic most likely.

 

[isabella09]

Sorry, double post

 

[La Colocha]

Good Morning Ladies, Happy New Year!!! Well for 2010, I am officially going to join this thread and the other B1U1 and also declare myself a REFORMED PJ!! I have always lurked in this thread both part 1 & part 2 and can fully relate to the addictions, buy 1 use 1, impulse buys, sales referrals (CB aka the pusha) and homemade receipes!!!

I appreciate the fact that this thread had a little of everything -- but mostly sisterhood where you would share info, encourage and support one another!! I surely got in trouble at work as I laughed out loud on quite a few of the posts in here and enjoyed the fact that IDTH would always post something to keep the thread on the 1st page. I found myself looking forward to CB youtube video reviews and sale updates, hearing about Che's soft hair, Shay's transitioning products and LC's shea butter mixes -- (the starting original members).

Folks on the job and my son think I am crazy when I talk about LHCF -- so i just keep the enjoying the thread and the forum by myself. The best $ I have spent!!!

My goals for the year
- Maintain the health of my hair
- Shop my stash for the next 6 months
- Put the $ saved into a account for emergency purposes only
- Make better purchasing decisions which will be very limited
- Organize my closets and products to easily access them to effectively use them up and know what I have to sell, exchange or give away.

Anyway, here's to supporting, encouraging and learning from one another every quarter in this new year!! May you all succeed in your goals or at least strive to make a difference in your life. LC you are doing a great job as the leader of the thread --A Special THANKS 2 U!!!

Aww thank you hun, but that thread would have been nothing without my girls, we stick together and get down when we need to. Welcome and i hope you enjoy yourself.

I want to be "French"
(meaning I want those few items (clothes, books, personal care) that work and its extremely simple but makes me look flawless) - this is the goal

To the bolded, i want to be there one day.

I will be the first one ordering it! Shoot......

Ha, and i will be right behind you.

Well if people can make more wise and informed decisions from talking about their experiences, I do not see the problem.

That's what its all about, helping one another to make informed decisions and not just jump on a product because its the in thing to do.

Y'all a trip. Talking about what new products you can't wait to try and buy in a pj thread. Its like Alcoholics talking about what drink they're gonna have after the AA meeting. Just friggin priceless I tell you !!! LMAO and ROFL !!!

We are all pj's and there will be buying, but this thread is to help people make better choices, save money and not be overwhelmed with alot of products. We are all on a different path but here to support one another.. No matter what that path may be.

Funny because, after reading some post I actually kind of wanted to try new stuff... but no no more products

There is nothing wrong with trying new stuff. But you have to do what is best for your journey. When i hear about new things, alot of the times i sit back and wait. I do research and see what the ingredients are and wait for reviews. Then if i feel like i have to have it, i get a sample. That way im not commited to a big bottle if it doesn't work. Its easier and cheaper going that route. And also some reviews will be a turn off.

1. learn what your hair likes and doesn't like.
2. Learn your ingredients and what benefits they may have for you.
3. Do your research on a vendor before buying a product
4. If at all possible buy a sample first.

There will be temptation 20 something but these 4 things can help you avoid wasting money and being disapointed, and left with a product that doesn't work for you. I hope this helps.

 

[Tafa01]

Hi ladies
I am baby product junkie, meaning I am just starting to go overboard. But its not too bad yet. I have not found my staples yet beside my clarifying shampoo, so I am still trying stuff.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

but I refuse to spend $150-$200 a month anymore on hair products.

Or More

We are So >>HERE<<

I'm Done

 

[mkd]

Charz, I like your hairveda review!

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Seriously it is painful getting that and AOGPB out of the bottle. I know I transferred AOGPB to a jar but it was not fun .

I Did the same thing a couple of weeks ago. And it was Difficult.

I added a drop or two of warm water shook hard and I also cut the Bottle Open

I have another 11oz Bottle of GPB I will transfer that as well. I wish they all came in Jars or Squeezable Tubes.

After I use up my other AO's GPB will probably be the only one I keep on Hand It's kinda the Best of both Worlds.

 

[Shay72]

LC--Great posts !

Also what's great about hanging with the pjs I'm sure somebody in here has tried what you may be interested in.

I finished a Nature Fusion condish. Only 4 more to go. I also finished Hairveda's ACV rinse. I think I have 3 more. I was able to get 5 uses out of it. If I stop acting a fool with it I think I could get 6-8 uses out of it. So far I like it. Not ready to put the stamp of approval on yet. It smells good to me which surprised me because I expected it to sting my nose.

Lamara--I forgot I also use the Shea Butter Lotion from Komaza. Char sent me a sample. It smells so good. Buttercream frosting I think. It's got a thick consistency. It lasted me forever. I use it on wet hair. Other moisturizers I use on wet hair to give you an idea are HV Whipped Baggy Cream and Darcy's Transitioning Cream.
