Skala Hair Products.

there are so many lines i dont know which one to try first
I felt the same way too. I just picked up the Shea Butter. I think I stared at the product line for over 5 minutes before choosing it. Next one I would like to try is the one in the pink bottle, G3, I believe.

Phonetics:
"sca-lah." = Skala
"Jah-bo-ran-dee" = Jaborandi. I think I still want to call it Jojo-kokomo.
"seer-ruh-myde" = Ceramide
 
I don't generally jump on the bandwagons anymore. I've just been maintaining but since I saw this thread I looked and found some Shea butter & ceramide masks at my local big lots for the exciting price of $1 I bought 1 of each. This afternoon I put it on dry hair and did a bootleg steam treatment. Afterwards I just cooled down and rinsed. No shampooing. My hair felt soooooo soft & moisturized I just put a little oil on my ends and some gel for my edges. My coils were poppin & my kinks were coiling. Hours later my hair is really soft & moisturized. I have a severe & acute case of HIF disease tonight.

This Shea butter Skala mask is crack in a jar. I'm going back tomorrow to clean them out. :yep:
 
Damn! Just when I thought my PJ days were behind me...
There are 2 Big Lots by me guess I will be taking a peek see tomorrow.....
Uggghhh I hate my product weakness..it is so unbecoming

Did they have avocado if so, I need a favor por favor :look:
 
I went back to Big Lots and bought 5 jars of the Aloe Mask, my hair loves this stuff especially when I use it with my heating cap for 15 minutes.

See I sooo understand...because I don't think of myself as a PJ. But what the heck it was only a buck...so if it didn't do what everyone was saying, what did i lose $1?!?!?!?
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO very thrilled that I did!
AND that...mmmhmmm is the whole shebang right there!!!
THANKS for a fantastic review!!!
 
I went to Big Lots today to check them out. They had the ceramide conditioner and the shea leave in, aloe leave in, and the fruit cocktail. I didn't like the smells of any of them so I didn't get them. I wanna find this aloe mask you guys are talking about.

You decided on SMELL ALONE whether or not to use a product!?!?!?!?
errrmmm the Aloe masque probably smells like the leave in....sooo you're probably not gonna like it either.....
I can't knock you. I feel the same way about liver and onions...and chitterlings....just can't get past the smell.

Sooooo I went to Big Lots today (and the drive wasn't as bad as I thought it was gonna be! A plus ;P), and I found my way to the haircare aisle after wandering around (lol, their store setup is confusing! :X). I was half-delighted and half-disappointed when I found my way to the big wall of shampoo/conditioner and saw ONLY ONE Skala product. The Jaborandi conditioner. I quickly grabbed it and threw it in my hand basket, and then devoted the next 3 or so minutes to vigorously scanning the wall of poo/condish in a game of ISPY, just in case 1 was lurking in the shadows, out of view (the organization of the stocking left something to be desired, so 1 can never be too sure!). Unfortunately, there was no other Skala on the shelf. I was still kind of disappointed, a big part of that having to do with the fact that it really WAS A DOLLAR. Not that I thought ya guys were lying, but seeing is believing ya know, lol! So as I got ready to leave, something told me to check down the body soap/grooming accessories aisle. I soon discovered this aisle was a HOT MESS. I kind of gave the aisle a general once over and to my utter freaking surprise, there it was.......the pink Skala Ceramides G3 standing nestled between some body wash and lotion. I KID YOU NOT. I hurried up and reached for it then discovered there was another behind it. Turns out they had 7 of the G3. I bought 5 of them.

I asked a sales person if they could check in the system for other stores, and there are actually 2 other stores in the area with 14-20 bottles of various Skala products. It sounds soooo tempting. They're definitely even more out of the way than this store, but I will be visiting 1 of them on Monday since I was going to be going up that way anyway.

Anyway, yeah, I have 1 Jaborandi, 5 G3's, and I ordered a Shea Butter conditioner the other day. I do regret ordering online tbh, but the 6 bucks I spent in person is definitely worth it!
 
^^^You did real good for your first hustle..:yep: Everytime I go out I come up empty well except for this last time I hit 3 but if it was not for others and my husband I would be S.O.L.:look:

Yup you're right the aloe masque smells like the leave in so she won't like that smell either. I don't care for the aloe smell or the jabberjaw (<----has that one been used yet :lachen:) but I deal cuz this stuff WORKS!

Thanks! 3 stores, wow, I guess I did come out lucky for a 1st attempt. I think I would have given up had they not had any. Unlike you, I'm more of a quitter! ;P

I did feel ridiculous, though, when I asked the employees to find out if there were more Skala products in stock with a basket cluttered full of 6 of them. The lady looked down at my basket and is like.....are those Skala too? LOL. -___-' I'm like, yeah.....but I was wondering if the other lines were in stock somewhere. I really wanted to answer back with a DON'T JUDGE ME!!!

Never even THOUGHT to ask them to do this! Thanks for the info:grin:

I mean, even if it's good...I'm not gonna put something that stinks in my hair! lol For every good product that smells like poop (not that it smelled like poop), there's one that works just as well that smells good! So if I don't like the smell, it's not for me.:nono:

So with that said, I want that chocolate masque or whatever it is. MMMHHHMMM nom nom nom

ETA: Does the aloe mask smell like the shea leave in? 'cause I didn't smell the aloe leave in.

YUP, I'm so nosy I tracked down an employee and asked her to check in the back for more, then for other stores, etc.

I also asked them when they get their shipments in and they said on Thursday nights and they start putting the merchandise out on Fridays/Saturdays and by Sunday everything they received will be completely put out. I forgot to buy some detergent today so I actually might drop by the same BL tomorrow solely to get that detergent, of course. :grin:

2 different scents
 
^^^ Girl I know a few ppl Americka that would kill for the BS leave-in and you walked away from it :dighole::lachen:

*sigh* I just came back from my Skala sniffing expedition. If I misspell a few words, it's because I have not come down from my high. :lick: IMVHO, the only Skala with a not so attractive scent is the Aloe Vera. All the rest of my babies smell so, so, so good - especially the SB. But everyone's olfactory glands are different. I wouldn't give up so easily on the products though because the scents are not strong at all. :yep:
 
Okay that's it now. I've stayed out of this thread with good intentions for ages but the reviews are a bit too much. I'm going to go to that shop in Acton (London) after work tomorrow to buy the ceramides and shea butter masks, although I've got my eye on the Kanechom now too. Let's just hope I can be disciplined!
