The Jheri Juice Challengeeeeee!!! Lets get our retention on point!!

[MekyakaKinkerbelle]

Y'all got me really about to stroll through the aisles at the beauty supply store and look for juices. My hair could use some added moisture. Changes in the seasons always leaves my hair yearning for 'something'. And my hair is in a bun 9 time out of 10 anyway. This could be the answer.

Here's my issue though...I don't like parabens. I'm not a total ingredient snob. I tend to stay away from mineral oils and petrolatum, but don't think they're the devil...but parabens...they scare me.

May the Hawaiian Silky 14-n-1?

Do you guys apply to damp hair? or dry? Someone might have gone through this already, but I skipped to the end after page 11 or so...and I didn't the patience to sit through that youtube video because she was talking for the first 5 minutes.

Hey lady,

Well, I have the Hawaiian Silky and unfortunately it has mineral oil in it. Right now, my hair doesn't seem to mind the mineral oil... I really like it tho. I am not sure if they have parabens tho.. I will have to check... And I apply it when my hair is dry and when I am doing my wash and go's..

Congrats on being pregnant too =) I too recently had a baby (well, 8months ago lol)

 

[Firstborn2]

I juiced last night and this morning. The good is that my hair is moist but not greasy but the bad is my floor is slippery. I nearly fell on my a$$ today cuz I spray so much but I'm loving the results.

My family told me that I have to go outside on the patio when I juice, they are sick and tired of slipping. I'm going to get the gel once I finish this 32oz bottle but by then the challenge may be over.

 

[afrikurl]

I was also going to suggest gel for some of you ladies. Y'all don't know how to ack with them spray bottles. Got folks slipping and carrying on. THE JUICE IS LOOSE! or try pouring it in to your hands then massaging it in.

I know how you feel, I had given up all commerical products until Adora got my hooked on the juice. I've been diluting my juice because S-curl tend to be a bit sticky. However, I apply it on wet or dry hair, it hasn't been an issue with my hair.

 

[brebre928]

wow, everybody slipping and falling off the juice , im glad to see yall really getting jiggy wit it

LMAO @ ^^^^^^^^^^ Adora you are too funny

 

[LadyPBC]

Your scalp cant take the juice! That's that growth itch

Exactly what does that mean? My scalp is itching like crazy. Should I suffer through it or should I make an adjustment? This is quite unusual. I am not using the HS14n1 but before that I used S Curl or my own concoction. WTHeck? Please tell me that its itchy because its growing and I will gladly ensure the discomfort

 

[pookaloo83]

So what juice seems to be everyone's favorite? CFC gold? I don't know which one to buy.

Just don't put it on your scalp. Juice is not known to stimulate or aid growth. It just helps with moisture and retention. If your scalp is like mine, It hates stuff being put on it. Listen to your scalp and don't put it there. Try to just put it on the length of your hair.

I am in love with SCurl No Drip Formula

AHA - I am in cornrows underneath crochet braids so this will be very tricky for me. Hmmm -:scratchch what ta do what ta do?

 

[JuiceMobsta]

I have no idea why it's itching hun...let's just hope that it's cause it's growing :crossfingers:

Lol, that's funny, but true! Let me know how the Hawaiian silky works for you!

 

[Firstborn2]

S-Curl is my juice of choice.

 

[Jewell]

Currently using S-Curl "Texturizer" Spray (gray and blue bottle). Finally finished a big ol' bottle of S-Curl No-Drip (blue and white bottle). I've been anxious to try HS 14N1 since last summer, but wanted to finish my stash of S-Curl first. Well, I will be picking up some HS and CFC Gold real quick like.

 

[LivinMyLifeLikeItsGolden]

So I made up a bottle of CFC Gold with 1/4 water and have been juicing...my hair is S-O-F-T!!! Thanks for the tip Adora!!!!

lets all get loose, with the "juice"

 

[I Am So Blessed]

<----ok???

 

[I Am So Blessed]

^^^^^^ what the hell was that lol lol.

 

[pringe]

Already a part of a couple challenges but it sounds really good so I'm not joining but I'm cheering you guys on from the sidelines!!!!

 

[BlackMasterPiece]

Can you all hold a defined style when you use the juice? Like a twist-out?

I did a twists once using nothing but curl activator gel and when I undid them they just reverted and lost all definition

can you layer it with other products?

 

[BostonMaria]

Doesn't all that jheri curl juice make you flamable?

 

[JuiceMobsta]

Delayed reaction...

Girl I had posted you a question awhile back,i guess this thread is gettin too huge!

^^^^^^ what the hell was that lol lol.

 

[song_of_serenity]

I used CFC gold with water (1 part cfc gold w/ 2 parts water) and over it, I used ecostyler gel.

My hair is STILL soft!
I don't know if it reacts better to the CFC or if it was because today was pretty warm day!

I'll stick with this mixture for now!

 

[Kash]

Doesn't all that jheri curl juice make you flamable?

yep it sure does. that's why michael jackson's hair boiled to high temperatures and exploded into flames!:burning: from that damn jheri juice!

Damn you Adora! If you make me buy a bottle of jheri curl juice I'm going to be kicked out of my house.
