Me Too! And the Ice Makes it No Joke!:rolleyes:

People driving & sliding all over the place.....quite scary indeed.:blush:
 
Im ok with snow. As long as every inch of my hair is covered when Im outside and its snowing, Im fine.

That's why I am going to try this Wig.:yep:

I will be starting vacation from Dec 17th through New Years Day.

When I return to work on January 4th, hair will be under the wig.:yep:
 
yes i heard it was gonna snow out here this weekend too. i hope it doesnt. not because i wanna go out and do anything but i just dont like the snow. plus the car i have has not been driven on the snow yet and i dont feel like seeing if it can handle lol.
 
OT: La, do you remember why last winter you lost so much hair?:ohwell:

Was it improper moisturization or something else?:look:

My hair would not stay moisturized for nothing, until i found avocado butter. I had no idea what it was, maybe not the right products, technique, i don't know.

i think of car accidents(GOD forbid) or broken ankles.

Yeah someone busted my arse literally 2 years ago. Totaled my poor little car:nono:. Now as far as impact wise i got a monster so i feel a bit safer a bit:look:. Ive seen people hit a patch of ice on that freeway and spin like a hockey puck. You have to be careful out there.

And I just got my Car in May, so I don't want No Mess:rolleyes:

OT: A Poster sent me some Organix Pomegrante Conditioner. I've never purchased it or even had any interest in purchasing it?:look: Has anyone used/tried any of the Organix Products?

I will use it in a bit to wash out this Indigo.
 
I think Ill check out some avocado butter to keep my hair moisturized. I dont need the cold weather messing with my hair.

1st Bolded: Yeah, Che and I was talking last night about how nobody in our Challenge has really had any bad set-backs and Lawd Knows, I don't want to. So, I am also thinking about how to make it through the winter. So, I keep that moisture thing in the back of my mind at all times.:perplexed

2nd Bolded: Me Too! And I Live Way Out in the Country Deep in the 'Burbs, and it takes me a while to get out here from Downtown and it is a Nail Biting, Fear Gripping, Journey Err-day.:rolleyes:

Times Like these, make me wish I would have stayed in Da' City.:rolleyes:

Get you a sample from texas natural supply, they are pretty good sized, you get enough to use a few times, a little goes a long way.

The only advice i can give is make sure you have an emergency kit with you and a blanket. A charged cell phone. a few cans of food and water just in case. I have a small box in my trunk with some warm clothes and supplies. Also get a few 10 pound sandbags or concrete blocks, put them in the trunk, they help to weigh the car down in case you slide.
 
T i used the organix coconut milk conditioner and didnt like it. it kinda made my hair feel a bit hard. but im going to use it again to see if i change my mind on that. maybe it was all the protein in it. my hair loves protein but i heard egg protein was very strong and i think thats whats in this conditioner.

Imma Use it Up. Hopefully tonight. The Bottles are not that big.:look:

I did finish up a Pkg. of Indigo. I have 2 back ups.:yep:

Hoping this Redken All Soft will be gone as well.

Not sure if the All Soft will ever be a re-purchase. It won't be in the near or immediate future.:nono:

thats great advice. my last car was huge lol. a hoopty. but my new baby is tiny as all get out.
last year in my old car it wasnt even snowing, just drizzling and i slid all the way across the higway. five lanes i flew across in the big car so i know this little car can slide too. im just gonna have to leave the house early for work so i can take my time.

Yes i always leave early for where i have to go and try to get the things i need while im out so i won't have to leave the house again. The extra weight in the back it will help you keep more control of the car.

Sorry to get off topic
 
ok i have to admit my hair isnt feeling too hot right now:ohwell:. i think its the curls gel- le-c stuff. as soon as i put it in my hair it felt funny. i know it cant be the souffle thats making my hair feel this way because i just know lol. you know how you KNOW a product will work for you? well i know that about the souffle. but the gel-le-c stuff i dont know about:perplexed.
i hope my braid out turns out moisturized tomorrow.

actually(after feeling my hair again) my hair doesnt feel bad. it feels like there is nothing on my hair and its naturally soft. i like that, but now that its winter i also like the heavy product feel. like baby buttercream and qhemet heavy cream gives me. like bordering on greasy lol. this products definately makes my hair feel like there is nothing on it.
 
Well......I'm putting them down tonight.:grin: I used up the Indigo. I used up the Organix. It actually smelled wonderful :lick:(Pomegrante & Green Tea). Not sure if I'd repurchase even for Hendigo Rinsing.


I Honestly think V05 and Suave works just as well (if not better:look:) and the Organix, IMO is along those lines although 'pricey' I think I've seen it at the Grocer's for about $6.99:perplexed and sometime 3/$10.00.

I also used up an Abba Reconstructor. I have another one of these on hand. And I love reconstructors (as you all know) and have Several of all kinds on hand. The Abba is a lightweight one and I'd compare it to Giovanni Nutra-Fix.

Now on to the Steamer. Hopefully, the R.A.S.H.C. will be used up during the Steaming process.

It's time for all these 1/2's 2/3rds, 1/4ths to be used up and I have another 4 Weeks to make a Dent in them and I am determined to do it.:blush:
 
yea i think of organix as a cheapy conditioner but as far as that goes its not cheap at all lol. i think suave coconut conditioner is one of the best cheapy conditioner out there.

i bet it did(to the bolded). the natures gate pomegranate conditioner smells :lick:too. now im inclined to think everything pomegranate will smells yummy.
 
Well, I cut open the Tube(s) of the Redken All Soft Heavy Cream and the Tube of Butter Treat and Scraped them out with my Spatula into an empty jar.:look:

I have about half a Handful left, so it will have to be used with something else I want to use up. I have another unopened Tube of Butter Treat.:lick: It's great to Steam with but it will go into the Rotation (for a later date).

I have some Joico I will move onto next.

I also learned something else tonight (for sure), if I want the best results from my Henna/Indigo Session, I will have to do the 2 step instead of combining the two.:perplexed

I get far better coverage by doing the 2 step. So, I will have to Make time to Do the 2 Step even if it is on a Saturday instead of trying to cut time by combining them.
 
I Dried with my Leave-In and a touch of JBCO & Argan Oil (One & Only Brand):look:.

Hair Dried Nice and Soft.:grin:

The jbco strikes again:lachen:love that stuff. Are any of you seeing benefits using it? I feel that my hair is easier to manage while using it and i think my edges are slowly filling in.
 
La, there was a progress thread last week, I think Kami. Her hair is beautiful but her edges were significantly thicker from JBCO!
 
Really? I always use moisture milks to wash out cassia. Maybe I should try suave.

Try the SuaveTropical Coconut Next Time you catch it On Sale. I use/like them both.:grin:

Now You know I like that stinky-stuff:grin:.

I would like to say I "see" something:look: But You know I use Mega-Tek and I take a Hair Vitamin, so it would be hard to make that 'claim' unequiviocially. (sp)

But I do Love My JBCO.:lick:
