Just co-washed with the shea butter conditioner (I noticed extremely soft hair once I stepped out of the shower; definitely a keeper) and followed up with a jaborandi leave-in (not skala) I just purchased from my local brazilian shop. I cant wait to see how my hair turns out in the morning.

ETA: Ok here is the finished product. I'm not sure if it was the skala SB condish or the new leave in, but my NG only pops up and looks so moist like that when I baggy. Brazilian products are an A++ in my book.

Chile, that's okay! I cheated on Skala with Nioxin last nite! :look: It's okay to tell us about other stuff.

The Brazilians put their products is such pretty, colorful containers. Off to look at the purty colors again. :spinning:
 
Yay, the skala fairy (selfstyled) has struck again!!!!! hugs + smooches!!!!


ETA: Americka you are crackin me up!!! I too find my self mezmerized by the pretty colors!!
It could be a brazilian condish with "turtle poo" in it, but if the bottle/jar is brightly colored, im like "ooo-wee"..

I wanted to follow up to my previous post and include some pictures. I used the FC masque as an DC overnight.

When I rinsed out the following morning my hair was a tangled mess. I really liked the G3, but it looks like the FC is NOT my friend!! I will be handing this one off to my DD. She's natural so I'm curious to see how it works for her.

After taking forever to detangle I used a bit of NTM and lacio lacio and did a roller set.

Here are the results. I'm happy to say the results were much better than I expected. My hair is SOFT SOFT and shiny. I thought it would be hard to manage but it wasn't. Again, I'm surprised no slip but nice results. However, because of the severe tangling.......I won't be using this product again. :nono:

Next up AV masque!!!

Yes, FC is not my favorite masque either. In fact, I've started using it as a base for a deep conditioner I create out of oils and other Skala cons. Works out pretty good that way.

Your hair looks so soft and pretty. I'm glad the final results were much better than you anticipated. Good review!
 
I went to Big Lots for the first time looking for this product and of course they didn't have it!

Hopefully I'll get to order it soon :ohwell:
 
I'm not fan of SB or FC and have some for ladies in Maryland or DMV that are close to Waldorf and want to meet up. PM me if interested. (gone)

It was something about the colors that definitely roped me in too :look:

Arm - I have a Lila's chocolate Masque- and I love it. For those that can't find Skala, I think Lilas and Kanechomn are more than suitable replacements-cause you can find those on Bellahub/Amazon not to promote non Skala products in the Skala thread:look::lachen:

I didn't really like the FC masque either. It just didn't give my hair enough moisture that I wanted. I like to cowash daily with G3 and after I did a deep condish with FC and cowashed with G3 my hair was SO dry! Shiny, but dry. I've realized that G3 works best on moisturized hair. So... FC will also be sitting on the shelf.

Co-washed tonight with SB then followed with the SB masque, and WOW!!!!!! Ya'll wasn't lying about how good it is, my hair feels amazing!:lick: I can't wait till I get the leave in to see how the whole line works together, tonight I just mixed a little of the condish with the G3 leave in and my hair feels so smooth and moisturized, hoping it still feels this way in the morning after it dries. :yep:

I think you will LOVE the leave in. I didn't care for the SB con and masque but the leave in is :lick: on dry and wet hair. I just tried it for the first time on wet hair today and my hair is insanely soft and moisturized. It's VERY good as a daily moisturizer (actually I was able to skip a day of putting anything in my hair since using this). I am stocking up on this one for sure.

@bolded - That's just what I'm needing! Thanks Muse!
 
I still cannot find this product. I've tried many beauty supplys and duane reades in NYC. I'm not having luck find brazilian shops that sell it. Anyone know where I can pick this up in NYC?

I'm still on page 26. Still searching :)

Thanks guys.

I have a new Skala success story :)

I Used my G3 Conditioner as a leave in and it worked really well!! Maybe even better than the leave in itself.

All that I did was co wash, rince a little bit out and then apply my ecostyler gel while my hair was wet.

I had perfectly defined curls.

I'm on day 3, it's been rainy and humid and my hair still looks really good!!

I also love the SB leave-in as my favorite leave-in, but the SB co and poo is ok. My fav conditioner is the G3 right now.
 
It's night and I wont be doing a thing except doing a cassia treatment then a skala mix deep conditioning - hope my experiment comes out well!
 
I saw that but I refuse to buy anymore masque until I use up the 13 tubs:nono::blush: I already have (Im just glad this was my 1st true PJ experiencee). I just had to buy a leave-in since I could not find the Skala leav-ins anywhere.

In contradiction to what many of the ladies are saying on this thread, I did not have great results with Skala Shea Butter Deep Moisturizing Masque (yellow jar). It left my hair a greasy mess which may be attributed to petrolatum as the second ingredient. My hair hasn't been that greasy since I was relaxed three years ago using Pink Oil Moisturizer. I had to shampoo with sulfates twice to remove all the grease. I will not repurchase anything from that line. I was really disappointed. Did anyone else have this experience?
