Well La: I just used some JBCO. All that JBCO talk, made me go rub a little on!

OT: I saw a Friend last night I've been knowing since College (Freshman Year), she saw firsthand what happened to me last year,:look: and she knows how much time and investment (mentally, financially, emotionally) I've put into learning to care for my own hair now.

She literally "Begged" me to go Back to the Salon.:perplexed

What was up with that?:nono:

With friends like that who needs enemys?

Don't worry, it will be worth it in the long run. You reap what you sow and you have done all the research and such to guarantee great results!

IK My Skills aren't the Greatest, but she couldn't say A Word about My Hair Health!

It was all about Style. On Health, She knows and admitted it was on point!:grin:

Thanks so much for your input ladies. Yes, LC you did answer my question. I'm a bunner and most likely that is what I will do and that is why I am doing a long transition. I would like to wear my hair out every now and again but I am a person that prefers my hair up. I have a lot of shrinkage too with just texlaxed hair and we know about my detangling issues early on so I will need to be careful. My plan once natural will be to continue braiding it up at night then take it down & slap it in a bun each morning. I was just hoping this would be enough and not lead to a tangled mess. I'm so scared to do tighter twists or braids that I don't know if I can ever do them in a way that would be presentable in public so that led to my question.

You will be able to do styles and up do's in twist and braids when your hair is long enough. I can't do them now because i don't have the bulk, my twists and braids look thin and hongry:look:. Im hoping this jbco with thicken up my hair some so i can wear braids and twists out in different styles.

Girl its the truth:lachen:. The thickest part of my hair is my crown which helps give the illusion of thicker hair when i wear puffs. But the truth comes out when i wear twists and braids.:nono:

Girl, Not Da' Trooff!:look:

I'm glad you started the JBCO Challenge, to get areas like those thickened up.:yep:
 
Thanks again Char, LC, and Redecouverte. My hair is going to big I already know that. Here's hoping I can get it in a bun without getting a headache :lachen:.
 
Hey Charzboss: Are you still planning to go to that Salon around Thanksgiving (I think that Saturday) to get your Hair Done?:look:

Or Did you totally change your Mind? IK You decided against getting the braids (or install thingys) but I think you said you still might keep your Appointment and get a DC Treatment and some other services done.

Or Did you Change your Mind altogether?:drunk:

Ha! I changed my mind. Honestly I am wary of my hair thinning and my father killing me.....:perplexed

I might move the apt and just get a trim. I am going for low-manipulation!

OT: David and I are going to see Precious today, I am excited!

Ya'll I added more products to my Hairveda Cart (although I might not get them) I put in the Moist 24/7 and the PH Balancing Rinse.

So.......Can somebody talk me out of these STAT! OR Tell me why I should keep them?:blush:

Thanks Ladies!

:goodone:Good Looking Out. Thanks Again. They have been Removed.

I will revisit this Purchase in the Spring/Summer. The Moist 24/7 and the PH Balancing Rinse.

Shay (or anyone else that uses OR have used b4) can you give me a brief review?

Thanks

I know i don't think ive had this one bottle for a whole 2 weeks and its already almost to the half way point. I put some in a smaller bottle and im using it up fast.

WOW. Are you drinking it or taking it intravenously? I know it is good but :lachen:

Someone bought a bottle of JBCO from me and sent me a PM tonight to say that she received it but that she regrets only buying one bottle and wishes she had got two. I just sent her a PM telling her you only need a tiny bit and that it will last you for ages and then I read your post

Seriously how are you using it?

The ACV rinse I haven't tried because it will be a new purchase for me. I should finish the bar I've been using from Njoi Creations soon.

Now the church might get mad but I looooooooooooooooove Moist 24/7 as a cowash conditioner. It was the only cowash conditioner I used during my first stretch ever--4 months. Very moisturizing, thick as cowash condishes go, and smells good. If I had to compare it to a commerical product it reminds me of Aussie Moist. Mix vatika frosting and Moist 24/7 and you would hurt somebody if they got near your bottle :yep:.

I use it to seal, 2x a week in my dc and on my scalp and edges. I guess im liberal with it.:look: And i use about a dime size every other day on my dd's hair.
 
I need to reup on JBCO and I'm not sure how many bottles to get. I just pour :look:. Maybe I should go with 1-2 capfuls per jar or bottle or maybe 1 capful per 4 oz. What do ya'll think?

To the bolded: This is also what I do. My hair loves JBCO/CO. I apply it VERY heavily on my edges at night and lightly to seal my ends. In the morning, I am left with nice ends and laid-out edges. It is defintely responsible for helping me grow-in/thicken my po' lil' edges.

Actually my friend is very liberal with her hair oil. I add a little bit of JBCO to my hair oil concoctions and 125ml of this mixture will last me about 5 to 6 months and the same bottle will last her between 3 to 6 weeks depending on how she uses it.

It may be worth getting a case for yourself. I share the case with others but I remember reading posts where people order a case of 12 8oz bottles just for themselves.

I know Char wasn't that sold on it either but I love it. If I had to go down to one cowash condish that would be the one.

Okay......If it's part of Da' Sale, I will seriously think on it.:look:

If not........I'll wait until I use up some of the other 50-11 co-wash conditioners I have.:look:

The PH Balancing one, I have Porosity Control (so that takes care of PH Balancing, so this one won't be a problem eliminating):look:.

*just thinking*

I Put Mine in a Pointy-Tipped Bottle (instead of just pouring). I also apply liberally, but it has lasted a while.

If it is On Sale someplace, I'll probably get 3 8oz bottles and I should be good until Spring/Summer.

Last Sale I bought 2 8oz Bottles and I still have 1 Bottle Left & quite a bit left in the Actual Bottle and in the Pointy Tipped One too.
