The response to a question by our own Shay.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I just went back into my Cart! I hope the things I have in it, will be offered on BF!

If not...... (Oh Well). I'll be disappointed.

Either will go ahead and purchase (like Shay said) or KIM to the Next Seller.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Just went into all my Cyber Space Carts............I am ready.

*off to re-check the jbco...forgot about that one*

The only place i will order the jbco is crown essentials, if she has a sale. I already checked what the shipping was for how many bottles.

1-$5.00 2-$10 3,4,5-$13

I would not order more than 4 bottles anyway maybe 2 or 3.

My Plan is to only get 3! Then Restock for Spring/Summer

May get it or not whether there is a Sale???? Not Sure???

I have about 3/4ths of a Bottle Left and then about 4oz in an Applicator Bottle.

Never mind, I found it. Her products look amazing.

Henna ladies, do you notice your curl pattern loosening? Somone started a thread on in earlier this week and it scared me a bit.

Idk mkd i think charz uses henna.

 

[La Colocha]

As far as using up products i have about 1/2 a bottle of mbc. That should be gone next. Im also thinking of making a hair butter with jbco and jojoba butter, that is my favorite butter to seal with. I don't have a jar big enough to hold the mixture so i will use a plastic glad loc container for that. I will do that later. All my other butters will be used for dc's. Im also not going to use my shea amla butter on my hair anymore, its failing compared to my other stuff and i will continue to use it up on my body. It won't be a repurchase.

I haven't noticed anything like that. (Although, I'm Relaxed). And I've been Hendigo-ing almost a year. Since about March/April.

It definitely makes your Hair healthier, stronger, shiner and it's such a great alternative to Bottled Color. Although, time consuming.

It's Permanent tho', so please be aware.

Next Wash Day will be really good for me, as far as using stuff up. It will encourage me to keep going when I see those 'hanger-on-ers' finally discarded. I am close to using up my Macadamia Butter.

TNS is a Good Company, So I am sure I'll keep them around. Won't replace any butters until maybe Next Fall. With My Qhemet, I am looking for that to see me through Winter.

So, I'm excited. I can't really say I've reached my Goal of really Streamlining things, but I have given a TON of Product Away, Using things up, and really trying to be more consciencious about what I purchase. So, I feel the next 6 weeks or so should be positive.

But, I may use up more stuff by 12-31 than I am currently anticipating.

Imma Just KIM.

La, who makes the shea amla butter or is it your mixture?

My twist out came out just ok. It feels amazingly soft. But the style is just . Its not like I won't leave the house with it but it isn't super fly either.

Good job t, i will be close to steamlining if i don't try anything else. Something is always better than the next thing. But im getting better though, when i bought my bottle of jbco, that is the only thing went there to get and i got it. I wasn't even tempted to buy some of the other products even though they look good. That is an acomplishment for me.

mkd--I hear naturals talking about henna loosening their curl pattern and that's why some mix their henna with amla to combat that.

T--In the past Hairveda would have a special site for sales. She no longer does that. So on BF everything will be available. Everything may not be on sale.

 

[mkd]

Thanks Shay. I do see a lot of naturals saying that and I guess there is no way to know if it will do that to you until you try.

Afroveda makes it www.afroveda.com it is a good butter but its like my simpler butters are overshadowing it. I can do without it.

I thought that you may have been referring to the afroveda one. I am kind of in the same boat in that I think my butter mixture works just as well as anyone else's so I am not really pressed to buy any. I guess I will just by conditioners.

Girl, You sound alot like me and "Self-Relaxing"

All we can do mkd is to Keep Practicing.......erplexed

I Just wish I could master that!

I'd be set.

Afroveda = Shea Amla Butter

You're right T. I am just going to keep trying a few times a week until I get it right. I do like it better than wash n gos. I don't like going to bed with my hair wet.

1st Bolded: That what I thought. More Naturals talk about this affecting them. I've never noticed. I will also add a Splash of Amla or whatever I have available (for no particular reason...when I think of it).

2nd Bolded: Thanks Shay. I know you are a Loyal Stans! So, You'd Know.
More than Likely, I will purchase what I want anyway And Settle in for the Wait.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I don't like going to bed with my hair wet.

Girl.................. You already KNOW @Bolded

Yeah, mkd.....we just got to keep practicing.

Unfortunately, I was/am playing with 2 Dangerous things i.e. Chemicals & Heat with 450 Degree Plates.

At least, I eliminated 'practicing' with the Heat.

What do you add to your mix?

Yeah, I am like you, I can't DC overnight. I tried it once and not only was hair mushy but it felt gross and every time I moved, I just felt wet stuff.

La, I use shea and avocado butter and whip them with coconut oil, olive oil and pumpkin seed oil that I am trying to use up. It seems to keep my hair very moisturized so I can't really see buying premade butters.

That sounds like a good mix and cheaper in the long run. Do you use it for your skin also in the winter? Dh wants me to mix something for him but he is picky as heck. Ill be in the kitchen all day.

 

[mkd]

Yep, I use it on my hair and skin. Its a lot cheaper to me to make it myself.

I did just try the qemet burdock root and butter cream on my edges and I like it. I am going to finish the sample Pana gave me and if I like it, I am going to buy a jar. I probably won't do black friday because I can buy it locally and it will probably end up being the same since I wont have to pay shipping.

You know they have those 2 oz Samples as well.

Does your local store carry Samples too?

 

[mkd]

I am not sure T. I will call and see. I am about to use it on my DD's hair. If I like it on hers, I will get the big jar since we will both use it.

 

[La Colocha]

Ladies i did my hair butter mix, jojoba butter and jbco and well i made a hair cream. Its looser like a cream, i did not add alot of jbco to it but jojoba butter is lighter than i thought. I mixed 8oz of jojoba butter to about 3 tablespoons of jbco. I set it in the fridge and will let it set for a few hours to see if it solidifies, if not ill need to be looking for a bottle to hold my cream in.

 

[Brownie518]

I have already ordered what I need from Hairveda. Still haven't gotten my shipping notice but anyway...If the CoCasta is on sale BF, I'll get some. Maybe more soap if I get to try it before then.
