Use 1 buy 1 Challenge 2009 pt.2

I am jealous of you...I live in the non-melinated side of town so I'm pretty sure there will never be any TW products over here.


Ladies, as you're using up stuff please remember to recycle the bottles/jars. One of the reasons I'm trying to use up things is to lower my overall consumption (one of my goals for 2010) and the trash I produce. Almost all containers for beauty products can be recycled so if you have a recycling program, please use it. Or try to find other uses for the containers before you throw them out.

Big recycler here. I can either take it downstairs or a few blocks away I can just drop stuff off.

Thanks Terri

With the bolded, this is only because she was asleep . It took me hours to do those simple twists because she wouldn't stay put. She's only 2 so I'm trying not to let her hair grooming sessions traumatic.

Sounds like me or I would holler so much. My hair always got done when I was asleep.

Oh yeah I used up the entire jar, 2oz, of the coconut & papaya hair paste. It's gotten a little drippy but I left it in 4 hours so I won't count that against it. It smells good .

Last night I used up my Aussie Deep 3 Min. I will not repurchase. The strange thing about it is that it worked fine before I relaxed but now it doesn't give slip to some sections of my hair...same thing with the HR LTR condish. The other products that I was using before I ended my stretch works fine.

I thought I would have used up my CHI SI but it's still holding on for dear life. I think I should be done with this by the end of the month along with the YTCu conditioner and the TYCa mask. Sale for YTCa mask ends tonight but I don't think I'll pick any up since I'll be switching DCs as I get deep into my relaxer stretch. I have 3 more YTCa mask to hold me for awhile.

I also wanted to add that I'm loving the TW mist in DDs hair. My twist attempt sucked so last night I unraveled them and did box braids while she slept. Her hair felt soft and moisturized from the TW mist that I sprayed in her hair earlier that day. Yep, worth the money.

Good job on using up your conditoner, i liked the aussie deep 3 minute it smelled good but my hair did not like the aussie moist.

Thank you msa, i never recycle my product containers. I have to find some good uses for them.

I bought the TW bodifying mist at a BSS store this morning. I stopped at CVS to get some moisture milks to wash out cassia and saw they have it at CVS by my house too. I hope my hair and my DD's hair love it!

I hope your hair likes it too. I don't know if you saw before where i posted but if it seems to thick or heavy for you. You can dilute it with water. It still works the same. hth

MSA, do any BSS near you carry TW products?

Mkd now I done said I live on the non-melinated (ie white) side of town. Ain't no black bss over here...there's just large salons that sell products and ulta like stores. I have to drive over the hill to get to that kind of stuff.

Every single weekend, I stop myself from going to an indian store and buying some henna. I have a kilo and a half of cassia that I need to use. I like cassia and it makes my hair better but I feel like henna would just make it waaaaaaaayyyy better. I don't think I am going to be able to resist much longer.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Charz! Great Review ! Yes, the Steamer is worth every single penny!

IMHO: It does absolutely no good to have so many Fabulous Conditioners and Not See them Live up to their Potential to the Fullest!

Girl you want me to send you some?

I will wait but I think this MHC Coconut & Papaya Hair Paste may be a hit. My hair is not fully airdried yet but it feels soooft. Also I feel like it has brought out my texture more and my hair is laying down pretty well. We'll see once it is fully dry.

Keep us updated, don't you love when you get a hit. I know i do.

I used up a bottle of Aphogee Keratin & green Tea Restructerizer yesterday. My braids really do take up a lot of treatment and that's one of the reasons why I try to wash and DC it once every 2-3 weeks.

 

[La Colocha]

I have decided to do my twists tommorrow. I took an inventory and i don't have alot of things which is good. Ill delete stuff as i us it and i also have a copy in my journal. Im going to overnight dc, i really like using butters to dc. I never knew how good veggie butters could be. I wish i could make my own, that would be nice.

Thanks Charz, that is super sweet but I know I can find it super cheap locally! But I am about to PM you some questions about it!

 

[Charz]

Off to look. Accessories don't count in this challenge.

 

[Shay72]

I should have known they would have a lot of butterflies . Beautiful stuff. Saved it in my favorites. I will be buying from them in the future .

 

[La Colocha]

Those are very pretty and i love the bracelets too.

 

[La Colocha]

Msa do you know any place on etsy that sells head wraps? I usually just go to the fabric store but i would like to look at some different ones.

 

[La Colocha]

I like this color one, I found her picture on google when i googled head wraps. That is sharp.
