POOR Brownie::lachen::lachen:

I Bet She Wish She Woulda' Kept Her Mouth Shut in a Thread FULL Of Product Junkies:shocked:

Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme Gimme:blush:
 
Charz i do the same thing to my mom when im at work and she gets my products. she used to do it now she just hangs up on me lmao.

i hope the hemp butter works, it smells just like hemp seed butter. its not a bad smell but it doesnt smell good lol. i like the way it feels between my fingers though.

she needs to hurry up and re0open, im twitching over here lol.

i did an overnight treatment with the cocoasta oil and then woke up today and added vatika frosting before i rinsed it out. that may be why my hair feels too soft.
 
Charz did you stop your blog? i noticed its no longer in your siggy.

and does anyone know when afroveda reformulated her products?

I don't know the exact time but its been a minute. I was going to get a shea amla cream, a while back and i saw the change. That's the reason why i haven't purchased any more products from her. I know i liked the old stuff.:yep:

Ladies, keep and eye on the expiration date on your products. My htn growth oil is bad. I have been using it for a few days and i just took my scarf off to moisturize my hair and i have huge flakes of dandruff.:nono: I don't ever get dandruff, this is the only thing new i have introduced into my reggie. I just used some on my scalp last night.:nono: I mixed some with a whole bottle of s-curl and now i have to toss the whole thing. I just washed my hair so im going to do a water rinse and comb through to get this mess out of my hair. Be careful.
 
I Used up the Last of my Jamaican Black Castor Oil. And My New Bottle(s) Came in the Mail today tho'. That was really fast! :yep:

So, I'm good for awhile.

*i know. it stanks. but it's cool*:rolleyes:
 
I got my extension braids installed today so I guess I won't be using things up too quickly for a while except perhaps my cheapie conditioners for co-washes....maybe:look:.

Don't forget your braid spray miss aggie, i know that you use that with your braids. It may take awhile to use things up, but your using them.:yep:
 
I Have to Report My Stash is alot more "Managable" and I owe that to this Thread. Even though I use stuff up rather slowly, just checking into this thread has rid me of that Overwhelming Urge to Buy.:look:

I no longer feel that sense of "Doom & Gloom" when I look at my stash or think about my stash. I have downsized and moved alot of Product this month. It's still big, mind you, But it's Contained. And that's such a Good Feeling.


And it feels good to Replace My Products/Staples as I use them up. And it feels even better to have alot more "Control" over My Spending.:yep:

By Year's End, I hope to be even better.
 
man i really want to order from darcy's botanicals but i dont see the thing on the site that tells you its secure and im using someone elses card. dang nabbit.

Does she have paypal? I know alot of people buy from her and i haven't seen anything. But always use your best judgement and go with your gut. If you don't feel comfortable don't do it.
 
The ladies on the board are killing me with the silk elements moisture treatment. I might have to get this when my ytc mask is gone:look:.
 
I'm almost finished with my liter of Thermasmooth conditioner. I think I have about 2 uses left so that should be gone next week. My backup just came in the mail on Tuesday, though, so I'm set. :yep:
Aggie reminded me that I have a bottle of Elucence MB conditioner that needs using. I put that out so I can use it to cowash or as a quick rinse. I finished a bottle of Jasmine's Moisture Renewal leave in the other day, also. I gave my nieces the ones I had in the stash. They love the scents! :lick: I'll repurchase that eventually but I don't need it right now. See, before, I would just buy more even though I didn't need it. I have other comparable leave ins to use. I'm slowly but surely coming around to a new mindset when it comes to purchasing. Finally.

I still have the blog, I will do updates after I take my Law School Admission test on the 26th.

Its the day after my birthday so it sucks. :ohwell:

Luckily my mommy is paying for me to go to the spa on my birthday for 5 hours! So I will be chill for the test, cuz I wanna get into Georgetown!

I don't know about Darcy's, seems like I could make most of her products myself, nothing unique for me.

For me to buy a product it must be unique. Otherwise I WILL find a comparable product and deviate which will be a waste of my money.
 
Checking in. I've been quiet but I'm hanging in there. I had a relapse last week when someone :rolleyes: got me on to the HS Pumpkin condish :lachen:. Although I didn't pay full price for it, I still didn't need it...so that is why I felt guilty about getting it. I'm returning it to the store tomorrow.

*hangs head in shame*
 
i think im going to throw some products away. like my aveda DR shampoo and conditioner. i've had them for about two years and i think its old because i pre pood with the conditioner since i needed protein bad and my hair did not feel strong at all. this is the same product that made my relaxed hair so strong it was brittle. also i have a bunch of foam wraps that i dont plan on using. gotta get rid of that trash.


i havent used anything up but i did some flat twists with afroveda hemp butter and pur whipped gelly. i like the hemp butter for twists but its so thick thats all you can use it for. even though its thick, it feels so silky between my fingers. i love that. my twists are so shiny and i was planning on keeping them in for a week but i just found out its not allowed at my job so i will do the twist out tomorrow and just wear individual twists to work(individuals are allowed).
i also used her shampoo bar that she sent me free and i like it. its really no different than any other shampoo bar, it even smells like most of the others lol but it is good.
