Me too - Anything is possible. As I share my concoctions with friends, I bought loads of bottles, flip lids, nozzles, pumps etc and I threw them all away just last month. I did not realise for a couple of days so it was too late to retrieve them.

I threw my favourite dress away a few years ago too
 
this weekend i plan on using my AO conditioner mix again. i added more stuff to it. i will pre poo with ORS mayo, shampoo with black soap and then use the AO mix. i dont know what i will use to braid/twist with. im really surprised at how much i have fallen for this heavy cream but my twists are so juicy so i may either use that or oyin whipped pudding.
 
Is Anyone Planning On Inventorying their Products? Switching Out Stuff Spring/Summer vs Fall/Winter, Moving up stuff that is half empty (or full)........Thinking of New Regimens?:yep:

Or is everybody Set going into the New Year?

What new/different stuff is anyone planning on doing?:look:

I think while I'm off, I will re-inventory my products. Things look kind of 'messy' out there, so maybe I'll take a complete inventory of what's out there and go from there.

I Did bring a couple daily moisturizers back in (that I had put away) since I am Wigging It. I have to get my Under the Wig moisture Regi together.

Do You Shampoo Weekly?:look:

I Have a Couple of Cholestrol Treatments I want to use up during the DDC Challenge. Like LeKair and Luster's. I also Have Organix Mayo. Maybe 2 Jars.:ohwell: I hope I can knock those out.

I bought them for a Pre-Poo Base, but I don't 'Poo much anymore.:perplexed
 
i use completely different products in the summer than i do in the winter(for the most part).

during the summer i will be using:
kbb hair milk and cream
kbb deep conditioner
AO gpb
curls soufle, milkshake and qhench moisturizer

during the summer most of my products are used to define curls.
i also deep condition overnight like 2-3 times a week.

if i use shea butter itll be as a pomade. other than that heavy products take a back seat.

Me too, I have to wash once a week. I use way too much product and my hair is greasy by the end of the week.

Im set with everything for now. I was going to go back to s-curl in the summer but ill stick with tw mist. Shea butter is here to stay and so is every thing else. Some things that i want to try next year is the curl junkie dc and some essential balms products other than that im settled.
 
Yeah, I think I am set too. I want to try at least 2 new DC in 2010 but I think my moisturizers will be the same. I won't be doing wash and go's in the summer so I will just stick with what I am using.
 
ususally during the summer all i do is co wash, add leave in, coconut oil and go. thats why i only like vatika frosting during the summer. because in the summer i use it for everything, sealant, moisturizer, overnight treat.

That's Smart:yep:

I think I am pretty much 'set' too. I am Definitely ready for the DDC Challenge and Imma just KIM.
 
yea i cant wait to deep condition several times a week too. my hair took off during last summer. i dont think conditioners made my hair grow but conditioning my hair kept it healthy.

:yep: My hair feels the same way. When my hair was dry and damaged and my scalp was so dry, cowashing worked wonders for me. It was a life saver! But now I have to shampoo. My hair is loving it.

I totally agree with this!! I DC every time I wash. Once I started doing that, the health of my hair improved greatly. Especially when I was consistent with what I used. :yep:
 
I have finally used up:

  • Pantene Fusion Conditioner (will not repurchase unless necessary)
  • AOHSR (will only purchase if found locally)
  • Skala Jabarondi Masque (will definitely repurchase if Big Lots restocks it)

ive been seeing this skala popped up alot lately.
 
chebaby said:
i honestly believed her.

You know...it's not that I didn't believe her...just that I had no sympathy. If all I had was 55$ for the rest of the month, there's no way I'd spend more than half of it on hair products. I would have went out and bought a dollar bottle of V05 and used that to cowash and bun until I could afford something else.

That was me bumping an older thread searching for anyone still using it. :blush: I discovered it at Big Lots and it only costs $1! I took a chance and purchased the masques with ceramides (great for relaxed hair) and the jabarondi. They are okay on their own, but with heat :lick:. I also have the aloe vera styling leave in and it leaves my hair soft unlike some other leave ins. Quite a few ladies used it about four or five years ago. So if any of you live near a Big Lots, please let me know if they have ANY of the Skala masques. :yep:
 
Recently I used up:

Vatika frosting...will not be purchasing in the future...regular coconut oil is just fine and dandy.

Giovanni Direct Leave In...HELL NO will not be repurchasing...it left white residue in my hair and made it feel gross...I had to use it as a rinse out conditioner to get rid of it.

I'm thinking about my products for the new year...but my regimen will be the same...wash/condition, leave-in, braid to stretch, wear the braidout however.

Has anyone tried brendita's bodyworks cleansing milks? I'm looking for a gentle cleanser that isn't soap based or shampoo based (and I can't use baking soda or ayurveda herbs). Basically something like v05 clarifying conditioner. The cleansing milk looked like a good alternative but I haven't been able to find any reviews.
 
I'm pretty much set but of course I have found a ton of products I want to try: Curl Junkie, Hamadi, Uncle Funky's Daughter, and Bee Mine. Not sure when I will get around to them.

I'm "wet" (using tw mist so I will need to restock on this in the new year) bunning it up until spring. I will continue with my edges routine. Come spring & summer I will up the cowashing and really wet bun. I will most likely alternate using tw mist, hydrasilica, and juices & berries then.

I miss big lots, ours was closed down and by the time i found out it was 90% off. All that was left was dish towels:lachen:. It was off in the cut so everybody forgot about it.

I saw a youtube video of the butter and a lady gave up her qhemet and jane carter for it. It must be some good stuff.
 
La i think i saw that same youtube vid. i like her hair but i dont really like her videos because they are so short. not really detailed like most other youtubers.
