I used the Fruit Mask as a DC (dry hair). It instantly melted into my hair. Upon rinsing, it felt ok. Imma try again tmrow, since I will be upping my work out schedule. I also used the Shea butter leave in.

You're the second person to say that the fruit cocktail masque was just ok. I have it but I haven't tried it yet. I may cowash with it tonight. How did you like the shea butter leave in?

:yep: Use them both you will love it! I have shea butter shampoo and masque, aloe masque and fruit cocktail and I have not even touched them yet because I am stuck on G3! My next mission is to find the Jaborandi cons because I keep hearing everyone say they are :lick:. I wasn't really thinking about getting that line because it's for volume and I sure don't need any more of that.:nono:
 
Went to a AJ Wright yesterday after work and there was ONE bottle of the Aloe Condish. I hopped on it in a very lady-like manner. On the inside I was doing the A-Town Stomp. LOL

I love the shea butter leave-in. I also use it as a moisturizer sometimes if my edges feel dry. I also have the aloe and G3 leave-in but have not tried it yet because Im stuck on the shea butter.
 
SOOOOOOOOOOOO I got on the phone to Skala this morning and spoke to a lovely man named Gunter, who tells me that the Relaxer is not available in the US and if there IS a real SKALA relaxer it is coming directly out of Brazil to the UK.
Gunter said there is a list of sites on the SKALA shop page, which I informed him was down at the moment. He said he knew it was and they were working on it.
He named some other stores on the East Coast that carried the SKALA but I couldn't understand too well becuase he said them so fast.
ANYWHOO the bottom line was BL is 'as good as it gets'. It kinda sounded like BL was his biggest distributor and he was glad. He mentioned it was not at Walgreens or anything like that and he apologized. I told him he should TRY to get the FULL LINE of Skala products into BL. I told him that a group of women belonged to this place online called the Long Hair Care Forum and we LOVED their products, and where hoping to get the ENTIRE line in the stores.
So gurlies...I tried..lol...ermm and now...am off to find a Brazil number to ask about the relaxer!
ENJOY THE DAY!!!!

Thanks! That's what I like, detective work!:yep: So it looks like BL won't stop carrying this line anytime soon. Maybe this means I can stop buying tons of this stuff at once. I want to try the Chocolate and Keratin lines that Coffee mentioned. I hope your call will get them to send some of their other products to the states.
 
I keep checking BL for the re-stock of this, but they still have the same amount as two weeks ago. And again I picked up the C3 conditioner and Aloe mask, and put it right back down! haha I am controlling this PJ-ish!

I think BL knows my store has not stock anything in 2 weeks.
 
I think that's all the BL b/c mine hasn't stocked anything either..and no one is buying it up like the other cities. I only got 3 jab. masques and the shea butter condish, aloe condish, and shea butter shampoo are still there.

errrrmm and am on the way to my BL to see if they can swap with other BL to get the ones I they currently don't have....the FC, JA and SB....and offer to buy a case of each if they can get the masque, leave-in and condish....can't be more than 12 in a case right!?!?!?

LOL yeah i looked over and saw him playin paparazzi.. :grin: i got another another FC masque & SB masque all they have are conditioners here.. can't wait to hit some more..
 
Spoke to the manager of my local BL. Asked about getting specific products by case and was told they don't always know what products they're getting so they can only trade if
1-another BL wants to
2-they other BL has enough of the product to trade.
poopie-poop on THAT idea.
 
Is there anyone with very thick and sometimes very dry hair that uses these products? I have super thick hair that can become dry if I don't use the right products. I don't have a BigLots near me. So before I buy online, I would just like some insight from someone with 4b hair that deals with moisture problems. Also, which products did you like the best??

Thank you because the products sound great.
 
^^I have 4a with b on the crown, my hair loves this product line, I've tried the Jaborandi, Shea Butter, Fruit Cocktail masque, Shea Butter Masque, Ceramides, my hair has responded well to all of them, but this is just me.
 
I did a cowash with the Aloe Masque last night (this is my first time using something other than the G3 ceramides line). It felt a bit thicker in my hair than the G3 masque. Left it in for 5 minutes and rinsed, my hair felt smooth and very soft. I towel dried and clipped my hair up to let it dry a bit before I used the leave in. Well after watching Lost I fell asleep with no leave in in my hair! When I woke up this morning I just knew my hair was gonna be crunchy and to my surprise it was not! Still soft! I only picked up one of the aloe masques to try but I think I'll go back to BL and pick up the rest. I hope the fruit cocktail masque is good for my hair too. I'm trying to decide if I want to skip on buying the regular conditioners. The masques just work so well and are more moisturizing and for a $1 I can afford to cowash with them.

About a year ago I tried the no comb method and my hair dreaded up so bad after a week of no combing. Skala is so good at getting the tangles out that I haven't combed in a week and so far no dreads!
 
Ladies last night I used the Aloe Vera conditioner for dry and curly hair. It's consistency is very thick which was a plus. It had great slip and left my hair very soft. I wish the smell was better though. It was just a plain smell no fragrance really. I noticed that when using Skala conditioners if you use alot it gets kinda foamy like a light lather so its great for cowashing.

Was this the masque or the regular conditioner?
 
To those who are interested, I have the Skala Ceramides G3 Shampoo to give away/exchange. It is 2/3 full and I can mail today. PM me.

I loved how it worked in conjunction with the Ceramides G3 Masque..Beautiful flat iron results! Now that the masque is gone and I can't find it anymore:wallbash:..so I must part:sad:
 
I went to the Big Lots in Kennesaw, GA.... They didn't have any Skala products. Does anyone know of any Atlanta stores that sell it?
 
Anybody in Massachusetts find the Skala products? Please PM me if you have! Don't be a hog! LOL j/k

I gave my co-worker one Skala DC today. She's transitioning and I'm trying to help her out.
 
I have found products at the Roswell, Chamblee-Tucker and North Decatur Road stores....

Okay my first thoughts on the products I bought:

Aloe Vera Con - thick, gave me great slip and softness! keeper

Fruit Masque - again great slip and softness - keeper

Aloe Vera Leave in - First, let me say that there aren't many leave ins that I like. Finding a good leave in for my natural hair has been very hard. I applied this to my wet hair and did two strand twists. Left my twists very soft and shiny :up: However when I put this on my dry hair to try to revive it, it left lil white specks on my hair. Not really hair boogers, but if someone was looking at my hair they would probably think it was dandruff. I guess it reacted with the gel on my hair. So used alone on wet hair, its good, but it doesn't mix well with other products.

Ceramide G3 - I decided to co-wash with this. When I first pour this into my hand I thought "This is watery, it's not gonna do much." OMGGGG this stuff shocked me! As soon as I put it in my hair it melted in, instantly detangled, I washed it out and my curls were so defined! This one was my favorite.

All in all, I'm impressed! However the bad part is that now I'm hooked :look: I've already been to 2 Big Lots in my city, and 1 in another. They had the same products. I got like 5 different BLs to hit...

That's good Afrikurl..I wish thay had avocado I just found out about that one :look: right now my favorite is jaborandi, plus I love love love the smell...
 
Would anyone be willing to pick me up some products and ship them to me? I have done this for a couple of lhcf members for products they can't find. I have the Jaborandi conditioner and the Aloe mask. I would really like the Ceramides mask, conditioner and leave-in. Please, anyone?
