Im glad you like the mist msa, keep us updated as you use up the bottle. I pray that she does not change the ingredients, its almost too good to be true.


Good day ladies today im going to use tw mist and shea amla to moisturize. And oil my scalp with an oil mix.

I have seriously been thinking the bold about the ingredients already.

First of all, what the heck is a fruit bioflavanoid? And what exactly is in the "ancient african herbal complex". Suspect.

Second, the preservative is supposed to be the bay laurel. I did some research and bay laurel is antibacterial and antimicrobial and what not but I don't know. I have a feeling it's a preservative that's derived from bay laurel.

Third, I ain't never smelled nothing in nature that smells like the tw mist. She says all the colors and fragrances are derived from fruits and herbs but ummm...suspect.

But you know what, I like it, so I'm not going to research too hard because if I find out something I don't like I'll have to give it up and I'm not trying to do that.

And if she tries to change it up I will be the first one ordering 5 or 6 of the 32oz bottles .

And i will be right behind you grabbing up those gallons 2 at a time. Matter of fact im going to email her and ask what is the shelf life of the mist so in april i will get a gallon or 2. Im just anxious because she is going commerical with cvs.

Please let me know what she says because if the shelf life is long enough I will be ordering myself a gallon as well (provided I still like it this much).

I sure will let you know. Is your hair all the way dry yet? It might stay moist for a while.

Yup it's dry now. My hair is super soft too, I love it. And with no flakes or tacky feeling either.

 

[Aggie]

Update: I used up a bottle of Jasmine Oil in my hair as a prepoo and in my henna mix I have on my hair right now.

I will be sleeping with it in my hair tonight because I don't think that the color has fully released yet but I'm sure in another couple of hours it will be.

By morning, the color should have already bonded with my hair.

 

[La Colocha]

Goodmorning ladies, tonight i will be using tw mist and olive butter to moisturize. I have not used up anything else yet but still using my products. Everyone keep up the good work. I need to catch up in my journal because i missed a few days. It seems like we all have our goals in sight and know what we want out of our products. Good deal. Everyone have a good day.

 

[panamoni]

Hi Ladies,

I finally tried the Qhemet Burdock Root Butter Cream on my hair, and my hair has that pefectly moisturized feeling. I'll defintely repurchase during the Black Friday sale. I have a sample now, which probably wont run out by then, but soon enough. When I had a lot of new growth, the Amla Heavy Cream worked well, but since I won't be stretching that long anymore, once I use up that sample, I probably won't repurchase.

Have a nice day!

 

[Aggie]

I already rinsed out my henna treatment and now I am sitting here with my indogo in my hair for about 3 hours or so. I may rinse it out in another hour.

I used the TW mist on my daughter's and son's hair last night. Then I sealed with a butter mix. When I pick them up this afternoon, I will see how moisturized their hair looks. I haven't used it on my hair yet. I am going to co wash tomorrow and then I will try it. It is definately heavier than the shescentit moisture mist but that could be a good thing in the winter.

So, did their hair feel moisturized?

Ugh, I've now been to 4 CVS stores that were on the TW list and have only found the products at one store. CVS is having a sale on NTM Silk Touch leave in and although I have 6, including the one I'm using, it is a staple so I'll pick up a few more. I'll check if they finally got the Lock It Up gel...if not inquire about it.

thanks ladies! I used this a couple of years ago and my hair thrived. I need to pick up a couple of bottles.

Update on the tw mist...

Hair still feels soft and "silky" like baby hair today. And kind of moist too but I know it's dry.

I like this tw mist very much.

 

[Shay72]

I had a nice long post last night and it would not post no matter how many times I tried. Oh well. I finished up my Roots of Nature--good riddance . The Molasses Hydrating Condish from MHC came yesterday so I will try it this weekend.

I meant to update last night by my DH was working on the computer all night. Their hair was definately moisturized. My son's hair is more coarse and thick than my daughters. Hers stayed more moisturzed than his but I would give the TW an A on their hair so far. I'll report on mine tomorrow.

Charz, I didn't know you grabbed a bottle too

 

[Charz]

Charz, I didn't know you grabbed a bottle too

I got one when I met up with Che and RobotXcore. We went to a huge BSS and it was the only TW product not laced with chemicals! It smells good.

 

[chebaby]

i used up my yes to carrots conditioner.

last night i took out my braids, conditioned overnight with ashlii amala(thanx La) woke up today and detangled using YTC, shampood with CD tui and then did a quicky condition with giovanni deeper moisture.
then i used kbb hair milk as a leave in, curl junky coco coffee curl cream and curl junkiw aloe fix gel as a styler. i then wraped my hair in my micro fiber towel for 10-15 minutes and then slicked on some more aloe gel on the front of my hair, put on a good band and am rocking a puff. i really like this gel. my hair is so soft with it and there is not one crunch in sight and i used a good amount of this stuff. my hair feels great.
tonight i will spray my hair with ojon mist and then put in chunky braids using afroveda curly custarf. im gonna see if i can get second day hair.

 

[chebaby]

oh i forgot, i used the TW mist to take out my braids last night. it worked perfectly. i dont part my hair when i braid so some of my braids were very tiny and this stuff helped me get those braids right out. i didnt use it on my whole head, just certain braids. i wont be using it anymore until i finish the ojon mist which seems to stand dtill now that ive gotten down to the last drop lol.

 

[Aggie]

Just finished a bottle of Pantene's Nature Fusion Moisture Balance Conditioner, and 2 bottles of v05 Herbal Escapes Conditioners.

I had a long henna and indigo session and finally have my DC in my hair and will leave it in for a few hours to overnight.

Im glad its working out for you msa. What do you use with it? Or do you use it alone?

Rip roots of nature.Good job shay

Im glad that its working on your litte ones hair. My dd has her own bottle and that is all i use on her hair. I put some on at night put on her bonnet and in the morning her hair is easy to do for school.

Dang Yall. I'm gonna have to try mine tomorrow morning.

I didn't even know you got some. Share the experience charz.

Use it up ms. aggie good work.


Good day ladies sorry to quote all the posts but i wanted to respond all together. I like my chebaby braids more than my twists. I know i can never make up my mind on anything but i like how the roots aren't puffy and they stay neat. And they seem easier to apply product too. With my twists i had to take them all down to redo my hair but with these braids i may be able to just redo each one without reparting. It makes it easier for me.

 

[msa]

La I used it by itself since it was the first use. Haven't even applied any coconut oil as I normally would. I wanted to get a baseline for how well and how long it moisturized. Now I'll go back to oiling like normal.

I'm glad you like your braids!

With your co it should hold the moisture in longer. I know that i can go a few days without moisturizing. Im glad i like my braids too msa, i know i loved my plaits. Its easier for me to grab 3 pieces of hair and braid, then getting two and twist. Its not as hard on my hands for some reason.

Ladies my scalp has been itchy and I guess dry. I've noticed it the past two weeks or so. Any suggestions ? I will be clarifying this weekend.

I'd do a HOT with EVOO or EVCO and add in some Peppermint, Tea Tree or Rosemary EO for additional stimulation and massage in + heat cap.

And then a Nice Co-Wash with something really moisturizing.

It also seems like Da' Buttas would be helping with that as well?

*this is the time of year when dryness prevails*

 

[chebaby]

Shay dont you have some afroveda shikakai oil? i think it has peppermint oil in it, try that. also carols daughter hair elixer is great for itchy/dry scalp.

Yeah, it is. Lisa's Hair Exlir is very Stimulating.

When was the last time you clarified? You have some of the best oils out on the market see what you have for itchy scalps. After you clarify see how your scalp feels. Then you can go from there.
