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

[CoutureMe06]

Forgot to post yesterday! I juiced twice yesterday and this morning. Will do when I get home. I'm using the care free curl in the gold bottle.

 

[Firstborn2]

Just wanted to say I'm back and I've been juicing. Just juiced this morning and I will do it again tonight!!!

Hey girl how have you been doing? I'm glad to see you participating in this challenge.

 

[Firstborn2]

I'm sitting here at work mad cause I aint got no juice with me. I left my durn bottle of juice at home!


That's aiight tho! As soon as I get home.. I'm going to twist and twirl.. do the jherri curl.....

Hold up... this is off topic, but I'm mad for real... this lady at work just asked about my hair and stood next to me and :fart:. It took everything I had..... Lil nasty.....

Anyhoo, I'll be juicin when I get home!

relax relate release, see that is just tacky...

 

[kbragg]

Still here, still juicin' made "Soul Glo" my ringtone, and realize any attempts to catch up on this thread are futile

 

[Firstborn2]

I am unofficially in! (I suck at challenge follow-ups. Pics, updates, etc.) Thanks again Adora for answering my questions.

I started with the juice this week. I purchased the CFC gold. I guess I really had some pretty negative assumptions about the activator because I was expecting a hot, greasy mess. I was pleasantly surprised by how non-greasy it is.

I am having some trouble though with this strange build-up. It looks like little pieces of rolled up gel in my hair. I just took my hair apart from a twist out so I can wash it, and I have to say that it VERY soft and had few tangles. I love that aspect because I usually have a much more difficult time taking my hair down. I definitely can see the early benefits, but I can't deal with the gel rolls. Any suggestions? Note: I am using oil to because my hair needed a little more "weight" than the CFC provides. Could this cause the trouble?

Thanks!

As long as you are juicing girl you might as well join....

Loves the juice!! Angel has still bee juicin but she took her twists out cuz she said I made her look like a little kid Last I checked 11 years old does not equal adult No juice for DH I feel bad for him cuz this is the second thing he's getting left out in (he wanted to try BT but it made him look like he didn't bathe )

I'm not going to say I'm in the challenge... but I purchased the CFC moisturizer ... a small one... it looks like it has the right consistency... i didn't care for the other two - the "instant activator" and "activator".

Has anyone else used this?

Did you use heat at some point? I remember having that same issue one time when I blowdried my hair with SCurl in it. I had all these sticky balls in my hair erplexed

 

[PJaye]

OK, I juiced today - made a mixture of water with a smidge of glycerin, a snag of grapeseed oil and a pinch of aloe vera in a spray bottle.

I spritzed carefully over the sink this morning after cowashing (I read about y'all almost breaking a hip from the vestiges of Juice on bathroom floors...I'm way too fat to be falling, plus I don't have one of those emergency thingys ) Although my hair did not feel greasy or weighted, it also didn't feel like there was anything on it until it fully air dried. It looks...different, a bit more "present." I can't describe it; I will add more details later once I purchase some more adjectives.

At any rate, I juiced, as outlined in the directives of Madame La Juice-sé (Ju-Ju for short).

 

[Firstborn2]

Adora uses the Gold N Hot heat cap



Love you more (if that's possible) I am sure you will get it all back soon. I told you it seem like you got from TWA to Waist in a year (I know it was longer but from out side looking in you have fast growth)

Sigh.....ok group hug

 

[OhSoOthentik]

Sigh.....ok group hug

Big hugs to you FirstBorn. Thanks for being encouraging to all us juicers!

 

[SailorWifey]

Ok I need help since I'm a juice newbie. I have dc in my hair that I'm about to rinse out. Do I just spray the scurl and go after I rinse my hair? Also I cowash quite frequently is that ok or do I need to chill on that? My hair does fine without cowashing daily I just like washing my hair...lol

I apply S-curl on wet hair with no problems, but of course you have to decide that according to how your hair respond. I'm also in a cowash challenge and I am still appling The Juice, I've just stepped up my protein is all.

 

[pinkchocolatedaisy]

I'm interested in joining unofficially. I have assumptions about thr *juice* lol so I have lots of questions.First of all how are y'all appying this to your hair? Wet? Dry? Fresh out the shower? Do you layer it on top of a leave in? I bought some CFC gold today but how is different than the Wave Nouveau stuff? What's the consistency? How does it smell?I've mostly been bunning...but condish & coconut oil don't seem to keep my buns moist (works wonders for my twists...go figure lol). Can I still bun using the juice? Do you ladies do wng's using the juice or is that a recipe for disaster? TIA!

[SailorWifey]

one more question...I have a twa. Do I spray and leave it alone or spray and massage like the instructions say???

 

[My Friend]

Good Evening Juicers!!!!!!!! I have been secretly marinating in the juice all day

Firstborn I see you have been holding down the :welcome3:wagon while I was gone

 

[Firstborn2]

Either way would be fine, but I rub mine in I want to make sure it is distributed throughout my hair, some ladies only apple on there ends, so there is no wrong way to apply it. It's basically up to you.

First of all how are y'all appying this to your hair? Wet? Dry? Fresh out the shower? Your choice

Do you layer it on top of a leave in? again your choice, I don't, I don't think Adora does, maybe some of the other ladies do, but it's your decision.

I bought some CFC gold today but how is different than the Wave Nouveau stuff? I have no idea because I haven't tried wave nouveau

Can I still bun using the juice? most of us are bunning with no problem

Do you ladies do wng's using the juice or is that a recipe for disaster? Some of the ladies are doing wng's with no problems.

Im applying either Wave Noveau or CFCG with wet hair in the night and then Bantu Knot my TWA to protect my hair and a scarf to protect my pillowcase
I normally co-washed my hair every day cause i did not like how my hair looked when dry, i realize now the lack of moisture.

About the smell i prefer the Wave Noveau better and my hair love this one better as well, it moisturize my hair more, but if you apply to much you hair will look greasy

 

[SailorWifey]

Either way would be fine, but I rub mine in I want to make sure it is distributed throughout my hair, some ladies only apple on there ends, so there is no wrong why to apply it. It's basically up to you.

Today I left it alone...tomorrow I'll try massaging.

I'm still learning how to style the lil bit of hair I have so I guess I'm worried massaging it will make it look crazy . The last time I went natural I always picked my hair out and I'm trying not to manipulate my hair as much this time around, but I don't think my hair has enough of a curl pattern not to manipulate it

LOL well I understand, I'm not messaging it in, I just rub it in with my hands. It's probably not necessary but I'm in braids so I want to make sure it's getting in there.
