Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge 2009

I just finished my Shea Butter Cholesterol and Jasmine's Nourish conditioner. I have one bit of spit left in my ORS Creamy Aloe poo so I'll finish that, too.

I'm going through stuff now, filling a box with stuff to give away. I look at some of this stuff and wonder what I was thinking.

I had planned to hit up some Marshalls and TJ Maxx today but I decided it would be better to stay away. I'll check them out next week, maybe. They've been carrying some good products lately. :yep:

Smart Move Brownie! We are All Doing So Well.:grouphug3:

That we actually think about placing ourselves in Compromising Positions.

And then make appropriate decisions to "avoid them" if possible. Re-thinking our decisions to run out and buy "stuff" just for the sake of buying.

We are really growing.:lachen: And so is Our Hair!
 
I am more than half way through my oyin whipped pudding. I will not be repurchasing. The smell has become overwhelming.

Does yours smell like chocolate? When i tried it before mine smelled of chocolate but it wasn't strong, I was kind of disapointed because i thought it would be stronger.

Yes, but apparently there is some chocolate mouse fragrance oils in it now. It's too much.

Lol, I am glad that you like it!

Amla and Olive Heavy Cream

The Burdock Root was to thin for my thick hair. It would better suit fine haired naturals and relaxed heads. For thick new growth the AOHC would be better.

I am doing my weekly DC today and I have used up an Shescentit Grapefruit Conditioner and Oyin Honey Hemp in a conditioner concoction.

I am not sure. I really have to reevaluate my conditioners because I am only doing it 1-2 times a week now.

Well, what are you thinking about keeping? I see you said you will not be re-buying the SheScentIt Olive & Orange. So, are the Cream Rinses working for you?

The cream rinse was really good, I used it up! Thanks for hookin a sista up :grin:.

But as of recently I am not cowashing anymore and I am only DCing once a week. I found out that my hair does not like being constantly wet. It takes so long to dry its like my hair was wet 12 or more hours a day and it was becoming weak when styling or even just touching.

I only wet my hair twice this week and I have seen less breakage. I didn't have allot of breakage to begin with but I wanted to nip this in the bud.

I know I will continue to purchase the AOHSR and the Afroveda DC.

But I am unsure about the others.

And with The Olive and Orange conditioner, I think the thing that bothered me was that it wasn't in a tub like her other conditioners. I decided to eliminate one Shescent it conditioners and this was it for that very reason. Weird huh lol.

Just like La Colocha--I'm good too. Transitioning will definitely keep me here and interested in taking care of my hair. I have my eye on some products to help with that transition :look: too. J/K kind of...fortunately I'm a bit ahead of the game because I use primarily natural products anyway. It has always been my preference. Which naturally led to me not wanting to put any chemicals in my hair including relaxers.
 
OT--Char I like your youtube video. I will be subscribing. My name is "ebonygator" on there. Gotta rep for the Fla Gators. Your video got me thinking about that dc again bc it smells out of this world but we know how I feel about the consistency.

Okay...I watched the Afroveda YouTube Review. What's Up with the Raspberry DC? Can you steam with it or is it too Runny?:perplexed

Thank you! The Gators huh? You an alumni?

I looks at Claudie's and I don't really like the ingredients.

And with Darcy's her products are things I have seen before.

Hmm I am unsure, I am looking at Asha's. Do yall know anything about those products?

Yep, I'm an alumni and die hard football fan! I can not wait until the season starts it won't be long. I'm one of those that believes I can affect the outcome of the game :lachen:.

I would do a search on Asha's. I think maybe I saw a thread in the past couple of days. For some reason I don't believe the customer service was all that.

I lurk on other boards and the consensus is that her products are really good. but you have to wait for eternity. 1 month or longer. It depends on how patient you are.
 
I finally used up a VO5 Herbal Escapes Free Me Freesia Conditioner. I gave away the other 3 and will not be repurchasing it.
