Hello All!!!!

I've spent a lot of time catching up on this thread.... I am in the process of combing my locs out... Do you think this will help with managability while I'm doing the takedown??

im sorry this is happening to you, and you know you not the only one, im sure youve seeen my posts about how long it take me to detangle, but in my case i dont think it has anything to do with the juice, my hair is just thick and heavy, my sister juices and her comb goes right through,

i think maybe you should try a different juice, juices are not "one size fits all" so try them all. i used scurl but it wasnt what i really needed so i found care free curl and its great, maybe you need a lighter juice :yep: i hope everything works out

Maybe I'll try a different brand, I'm using SCurl and I loved the way my new growth felt all day. This is the only thing I've changed in my reggie so I'm thinking it has something to do with it. I'll give CFCG a try and see how that works.

Thank you!
 
Just checking in to say that I "juiced" this morning and my hair is loving the Juice. Thanks Adora for this challenge. My cousin touched my hair the other day and said "OMG, it's sooo soft" I smiled and was like it's the juice...lol

The juice is not mainly a detangler but I would think it could help, ., but then again i think that there are great detanglers out there made for that purpose.

woooooh, thanks for that information!! i thought it was going to be a better combo than that!! thanks for the heads up. how to you feel about DC'ing on dry hair?

I love it. My hair is sooo soft when I rinse out. I also love the easy regime. DC for over 8 hours, rinse and apply CFCG. My hair is doing alright. I wear my hair in a high bun and sometimes I put attractive clips in my hair. Well some strands of hair wrapped around that clip and I couldn't remove my hair from it. I didn't want to break my hair. So I just kept trying to get the strand out, and I was using a little force, and finally that hair released and there was no breakage. Could this have been the CFCG making my hair stronger and with more elasticity? I was impressed.

this happens to me all the time, i pull my strands with much much force and they dont snap!!!!!! they eventually slide loose after pulling :blush:. maybe it is the cfc!!!!!
 
I'm getting low on the juice and I'm starting to feel like Kenan Ivory Wayans when Robert Townsend poured out his juice! Major ng shrinkage! I need more juice because the juice keeps me loose (well my ng loose anyway but it rhymed lol)
 
I just purchased some S-Curl spray yesterday to join this challenge. I've never used it before and hope my hair likes it. I'll try it out after my next wash (since I'm wearing my hair straight at the moment).

And like others, I'll have to do the modified version of this challenge since I love using coconut oil to seal my ends.
 
I'mmmm backkkkkk! Ok, so after last night's episode, I grabbed my receipt and :flyingwit to CVS. I exchanged my cfcg for the scurl and bammm! That's it! :yay: I'm in :love2:. This is really working for me. Ok, so after I applied my scurl, I added a tad bit of KCCC for definition and I'm looking good!

I took my bottle to work with me today and added more juice on my lunch hour.

Now, if I can just stop dh from making fun of me and my juice. All night he was singing the "soul glo" song...then when I left for work, I saw to plastic caps on my headrests.... he got jokes! :lachen:

Yayyyy! I'll keep you all posted and will post pics tonight! (after I buy another bottle of juice)
 
For the ladies not liking or having issues wit the juice, try a different kind. My hair hated wn finishing lotion but ADORES the finishing mist. S curl makes my hair icky at first too bit when it dries it feels great. So search around to find the best juice for you.

I agree Khaiya, I was a little discouraged last night, but I'm not a quitter.

I'm on a juice journey now! Can't wait to get home to go to the bss.:grin:

Yes! S Curl is the truth for me too. I love it. Cant wait to see pics.
 
Here are my twist that I did Sunday with Scurl and Ecostyler again. They are still soft and moisturized. Definitely like it better when I use the s-curl with the gel. I usually would have taken my twist down by now, but I think I will keep these a few more days.

These look great! Pretty twists , and they look so moisturized :lick:
 
Ughhhh!!! I said I wouldn't join any more challenges or buy anymore products or get on any bandwagons! But I don't consider this a bandwagon since it's helped so many women retain length. It's a tried and true method in my eyes!

All that just to say Adora, can I please join your challenge? I bought Carefree Curl Gold yesterday and juiced up last night after cowashing and again this morning. I'll post starting pictures Thursday after my rollerset.

Adora so you are using the heat cap for 4hrs? I don't want to use it that long, maybe 30mins at best, or will I have to use it longer to get results. I order it today, I'm excited can't wait until it get's here

What's the name of the heating cap that you and Adora use? I have a Gold N Hot but it does not get hot enough for me. Thanks.
