Yo B! Where You Been?:look:

Anway, Glad You're Back!:yep: Have You Used anything Up?

:wavey: Hey!!! Just been working and getting gifts, I guess.

So, I used up a garlic conditioner but I have backups of that. I also used up another sample of Njoi's Tea Spritz but I have a large bottle of that, too. It really helped with my itchy a** scalp this past week. :yep: I also fisnished my Redken Deep Fuel. Definite repurchase once I get rid of some more protein conditioners. Love that stuff!

Hey, T!! Thanks so much for the package!!! :grin:
 
Hey Brownie: How did you say you were using the SSI Moisture Mist? As a Daily Mist OR when you Wash your Hair to Set It?:perplexed
 
T, there's not a thing I really NEED for my hair right now, but that's does not stop me, you know that. :grin: So, thanks!!

:look: I didn't read through the posts. Does Charz know Inky Loves Nature is having a sale of 4 items until midnight?
 
Who Miapella?:look:

OT: I am excited, now that I have "Finally" Wrapped My Mind around Using the stuff I have.

I am excited and anxious to use it ALL.

LC--What is miapella?

How could I forget to mention that my Darcy's and Jasmine's have shipped :yep:!

Well i had posted about it last week, its the white chocolate hair pudding. I got it on black friday because i wasn't satisfied with just darcy's soo.:look:

www.miapella.com its 4oz and i got mine from etsy.
 
You and that Hair:lachen: Ya'll are having a Love Affair.:love:

What will you use on it during or before you Braid?:look:
lmao yes we are. but i think i used too much sebastian wet today because my ends are crunchy:nono:. i dont see how so many naturals use gel daily. i cant find it in me to use a gel or gel-like product more than once a week lmao.
anyway, because my hair feel crunchy i am going to moisturize tonight with qhemet heavy cream(im starting to want this as a staple the more i ue it) and then in the morning i will co wash with the suave and then puff with more qhemet:lick:. i guess that means i wont braid until saturday night(its gonna snow) or sunday.
T i have no idea what i want to use on my braids. i was thinking good ole shea butter, then i thought nope, let me use my CURLS whipped cream, now im thinking qhemet. so i guess whatever i pick up is what i will use.

La, white chocolate ahir pudding sounds :lick:

Girl stop, that sounds so good. Please report back and let us know how it is.

La, you are kind of inspiring me to twist. I have 30 min of DC left to decide. If I do, I think I am going to sit under the dryer until my hair is about 50% dry first so my twists will be fatter.
 
i plan on buying some plastic caps from sallys this weekend. i cant use old bags on my head lol. my parents will rinse and reuse the same bag but im picky about that stuff. it makes me feel icky.

Girl, That is exactly How I Felt about the AOHC. At First, I was like: Nahhhh:nono:....but the More I Used it, the More I Love It. It is great for soothing NG.:yep:

@bolded: It does sound:lick:
 
Hey Brownie: How did you say you were using the SSI Moisture Mist? As a Daily Mist OR when you Wash your Hair to Set It?:perplexed

I ALWAYS use it as part of my leave in, and once in a while I will use it as a daily. :yep: I spray it all over my wet hair. Dry hair, I will do a scalp/roots type thing. Love this stuff!!
 
Che, which do you like better? Qhemet AOHC or BRBC?
i like the heavy cream better. for me the heavy cream is a great moisturizer but brbc is a leave in. i had an 8oz of brbc a while back and used it on dry hair and i swear it did nothing. it didnt even make my hair feel moist and then dry up. it felt like i could have used the whole jar and feel nothing. but then i learned to use it on wet hair. thats what im doing now with the sample i have and honestly i cant really say if i like it because this darn sebastian wet is making my hair crunchy. so if i had to choose it would be a no brainer. heavy cream all the way.
i have never known a leave in to not make dry hair feel moist but that is how the brbc is for my hair.

IK You Do!:grin: I was just reading the Ingredients! They are Wonderful.:yep:
I got 50-11 Leave-Ins....:rolleyes:

I hope to get to this one soon. I'll have to use up something first.:blush:
 
I remember Now. But I Guess We were ALL Too Caught Up in the Moment of BF:dance7:
Yes we were:look::lachen:

I will let you guys know how i like it. I wanted it because ive never heard anyone talk about it and they use cocoa butter in there and its hard to get a good mix with cocoa butter and i have nothing that contains cocoa butter. They did a good job. Fast shipping, it was supposed to be 7-10 buisness days because its made by order. Its a 6 month shelf life and the ingredients are

Sweet almond oil,shea butter,cocoa butter,castor oil,jojoba oil, fragrance and rosemary oleoresin.

Very simple and i could make it but like i said before cocoa butter is a beast to work with to get to a usable consistancy.

And yes mkd do those twists, there are alot of options that you have to style.:yep:

Eta- I did not buy from that link i bought from thier etsy store.

ITA with both of you. At first I wasn't so sure about the AOHC but now I really like it. It makes my hair very shiny and soft. I don't think I love the BRBC as much.
 
Me Too! Che!:lachen:

I Buy That Huge Bag of Plastic Caps.:lachen:
hahahaha i thought it was just me. i have this thing in the shower where you can keep bottles and combs and such. i grabed a plastic cap one day and it was wet and when i put it on my head i almost gagged myself to death:drunk:. my dad is like "you the only one that use them. whats the problem". but i cant wrap my mind around it.:lachen:

And it grosses me out to see hair or product in them too!:blush:
 
i guess i should snap a pic and change my avator(sp?) this weekend since my hair hasnt looked like that in like 8 months lmao.
 
And it grosses me out to see hair or product in them too!:blush:
YES :lachen:.
i guess the logical thing to do would be to rinse them out but i rather buy new ones lol. everytime i bring a new hair product in the house my dad puts his hand on his head and is like :nono:"why are you like that girl?" i just laugh:look:

Chamomile Extract, Water infused with Aloe, Nettle, Grapeseed extract, Honey, Coltsfoot Extract, Horsetail, Silk Amino Acid, Sage, Rosemary, Glycerine, Shea Butter, Mint extract, Centrimonium chloride, Vit E, Panthenol, Citric Acid and Polyquartermium, Nonoxynol, Benzophenone.

Other than the Stuff I can't pronounce: This Stuff Sounds Amazing & Healthy.:lick:

I will try to save it until Spring.:yep:
 
My Darcy's package came today. I'm kind of disappointed that my peach nectar oil didn't come in the regular glass pump bottle like my watermelon oil did. Oh well, it's not major. When I get done w/ the watermelon oil, I'll transfer the peach oil to the pump bottle. She sent me a sample of the Winter Spice oil which smells like cinnamon. The scent of the Avocado and Wild Plum Twisting Cream smells more lemony like Pledge. I want to make a scent request next time if I decide to purchase it again.

I have had some of the twisting cream in a braided section of my hair for some hours now. It feels really good; I'm surprised it hasn't hardened due to the aloe vera. My hair is really soft. The only thing I can't stand is the smell. The lemon is too strong. I emailed and asked could I customize my scent on my next order. She replied that I could. Since the store is reopening tomorrow, I might order the twisting cream in watermelon or sweet cream.

Thanks beetle, i was hoping the ylang ylang would give it a good balance. I can't stand strong lemons, if its that bad for me ill add my own ylang ylang to it. What did the peach oil come in? Because i wanted a glass pump also.
