Aireen I don't have colour but wheat germ oil (in my DC - steamed or otherwise) has brought me great shine:yep: Perhaps you could try it until our Postal Service gets their act together:smile:

Thank you for the tip, Nix08! My mother told me that too she really liked WGO but said it smells bad. :perplexed My AO WC has WGO as the 3rd ingredient so I can use that until Canada Post finds my shipment. Kinda broke right now to buy anything else. :look: :lol:
 
And now I have this Olive oil DC in my head from Komaza care.

I hope it works as good as the intense moisture treatment that they aren't bringing back :ohwell: that was a HG.

I needed to put this on last night, don't ask me why I didn't cause I sho' nuff was up talking to ya'll :look:
 
ok i am talkin crazy on the texlax thing, but i am going to blow my hair out today. i am going to conquer one of my fears and just do it. not expecting a setback because i am not trying to blow it out bone straight.
 
Ssoooo I co-washed my hair this morning with some Suave Coconut Conditioner
and I did not rinse out it so well, so I had the drippies...later on
my guy friend comes over to help me move out of my apartment
and noticed some dry conditioner from my co-wash on my shirt, near the collar.

Him: What's that?
Me: Oh that's conditioner....
Him: :perplexed..

3 mins later

Him: I didn't know you were that kinda girl....:ohwell:
Me:...*Light bulb goes on*..OH NO, its not that...:blush:.

Long story short he refuses to believe its conditioner..:lachen:
 
I give any beauty supply store that does not sell the Queen Helene Cholesterol conditioner a serious side eye...
The man behind the counter tried to convince me they don't make it anymore....mmmkkkk sir... drives 2 blocks to another beauty supply. :)
 
So I was scoping out all the natural hair at the jill concert in philly last night. These chics walked past me and I could smell the miss jessies baby buttercreme. I was tripping out that I'm so into hair and products that I know them by smell. I'm like that usually at the salon, I don't even have to try to see what products they r using bc I can smell them and know what they r.

I didn't however appreciate the tall lady w the afro sitting in front of me blocking my view tho (I'm short).

Washed and deep conditioned my hair on Friday. My wet hair felt fine and my roots were seemingly manageable. Well, after my hair fully dries my roots r like 'bytch pls'. So here I am at the Dominican salon getting it blown out soon.

Nix08 - yes, I did try Nonie's oil blend and not sure why but the dh's hair didn't respond quite as nicely as Nonie's. I must admit, her blend was the first thing we tried and dh wasn't being a great client at the time. Now, he's a faithful client of my salon. Perhaps I'll try Nonie's oil blend again.
 
Nix08 divachyk The suggested time period for that blend to work is 8 months, so at least give it that long. Also besides using the blend, I also ensured that I ate well. Your health is affected most by what goes on inside the body than by what you do on the outside; so ensuring that your diet is mostly beneficial and not full of junk food which only brings in useless calories, is an important part of this healing. Your blood needs to be chock full of nutrients and not toxins. So eating organic and avoiding processed food is a good idea.
 
Nonie - excellent information; thank you much. We did not give it 8 months so shame on us. As for diet, well - let's just say improvement can be made there also. :look:
 
I wish someone would come wash,dc and flat twist my hair for the week..this move has me so tired but I look like who did it and why..at least I have hair enough to bun and roll..
 
My hair is so matted together right now. Neither comb, brush, nor water has hit it since last sunday when I did that curlformer set. I have barely moisturized it and have went pretty much all week without wearing my scarf. I seriously look a hot a$$ mess!! I am going to prepoo with some oil before I cowash or maybe I will just oil rinse to help with all of the tangles. Good thing is I managed to find the two lost flexi8s. Let me tell yall the last one I just found was in the driveway and had been run over countless numbers of times but it is still in perfect shape! The sad thing is my flexi8s are seriously getting too small. Like I have to force them in and out of my hair so I might have to go up to an extra large. *sigh* Those are $21. Why oh why do I have so much hair!!!
 
GVP Sebastian #9 smells so good it reminds me of a product my aunt used on her hair in the 80's. It makes me feel fancy, almost like I stepped out of a salon

AAAH I LOVE WASHING MY HAAIR!! one of my favorite parts of Sunday is washing my hair at the end of the day, and just feeling good starting the next week.

so far it's been behaving just fine, i'm really figuring differen techniques to take care of it. my shash is one little box (like a plastic container, about 6 inches deep), and i'm good to go.

good hair day. <3
 
I really hope I like my hair after I BC in September. I'm kind of getting tired of braids, my transitioning style.
 
Imma need a separate savings account just for hair product and tools because I have a serious product junkie habit.

Oh and can it hurry up and be Dec 31st so I can flat iron and trim. I'm dying over here.
 
rinsed out the henna, co-wash, oil rinse, final rinse with beer, argan oil, conditioner and bit of gel before two strand twists ... happy hair
 
Wonder when I will finally feel like my hair is long enough to do put some twists in? Maybe I'll give it a shot when I make APL year end and see if I like them
 
I tried out my "Whip My Hair" Cleansing Cream from my little Longhorn sister, Supergirl's Silk Dreams line. I think I like it. It didn't lather much, but it seemed to clean my hair really well. Interestingly, I did not get all the shed hairs I have been getting recently when I poo! I do not know if the Whip My Hair was the reason, but I'll keep my eye out for that.

Lately, I had been using Organix Coconut or Vanilla shampoo.

Shampoo went great. Then I used ORS replenishing pak (or 2) and deep conditioned under the dryer. And THAT went great.

Then I screwed up by using Cantu's Leave In Repair cream as my leave in conditioner. I didn't realize until tonight that it has shea butter in it. My hair hates shea butter. So my hair was kind of mad and tangly when I put it into twists and flexi-rods. I coated my strands with Shescentit papaya curly souffle, so I hope that solved the shea butter problem.

Is there anyone else in the world who has hair that doesn't like shea butter? Wow.
 
blow outs are no joke! my dang arms hurts and it is too much work and hair to handle. i am taking a break right now. folks make it look easy on youtube with their damn 4min long videos.
