Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge 2009

T, we know you meant well and i was not offended at all. i just thought i needed to explain myself because i do buy a lot and it may seem like "why am i even in this challenge". but if for nothing else i just love talking to you ladies.

ok so i have no idea of the benefits of coffe butter or oil for the hair but i used some last night and can i tell yall my hair felt wonderful. i am so in love with this stuff but since it reminds me of ojon restorative treatment i think i will use it mostly as a pre poo. this stuff had my hair feeling so darn good. trust me if you suffer from dry hair try this stuff. and i dont have dry hair but this stuff was extra moisturizing.
also i got my sweet hair pudding in the mail today and i used it on my w&g. it gave me great definition and my hair is soft but it is so thick that i think from here on out i will only use it for twists.

I don't know about that site, and i don't know when was the last time someone i know of have ordered from there, but i know that some people ordered from there and never recieved thier products, this was before i came to this site. So things could be different, be careful.

Good day to everyone, i recieved a package from mama t, that was so unexpected today, Thank you. That was really kind.

I am going to under my dryer right now to try my komaza dc again. And my bulk order directly from the taliah waajid site shipped today. Didn't take to long at all. I will need another drawer for my products, when everything gets here i will have no room.

Thanks Girl. IK. You All Are the Best. I was just getting antsy about all the buying/spending knowing I'm probably the Ring Leader:lachen:

No, I take that back (Charz:rolleyes:)

Your Post, For Me, was right on Point because IK I am an "Emotional" Buyer as well and will buy everything under the sun.:look: Always Have Been. I'm a True Shopalcholic.

I met a Friend last night and she had on: A Lace Front. I couldn't even tell it wasn't her "Hair" I could feel myself getting all caught up in that (see....it doesn't take much) Wanting to Buy 2-3 Lacefronts. Wha???:look:

So, I understand where "We" All Are. And I really want to do better. (About My Situation).

Ya'll Knew The Sheer Horror I was Facing In My Garage when I Came into this Challenge.:eek:
 
Okay yeah, we are here because we love to shop. It sounds like an AA meeting up in this piece. They say knowing is half the battle. We will get on top of this. I don't know about being completely cured but I know each and every one of us is analyzing every purchase now. We are also taking the time to see if a product benefits us. I think we are doing fantastic.

I picked up 4 packages this morning. Well I left the Old Navy in the car :giggle:. I brought the hair stuff up to my desk. I picked up Nunulove Handmades, Jasmine's, and Crown Essentials. Found out Crown Essentials is right here in DC. No wonder that came quick :yep:.

I read that and thought african american:look::lachen:.

I can't wait to DC with some ashlii. It sucks only DCing once a week!
 
^^^^^^

Those All Sound Good Shay! WOW!:lick:

Nevermind: I see all those Crazy Cones. Names alone, they sound good. tho'
I love the names too but I won't be buying any.

Im going to do it 2x a week, I have to have my moisture high for the winter and im starting early.

I will be dcing 2x/wk too. Tonight is just a HOT, tea rinse, and cowash. My hair is loving vatika frosting :lick:. I missed it so much. I will never get through my other oils this way so I will use Vatika 2x/wk, other oils 1x, and I will mix oils in my condishes too.
 
i think i may deep condition only once a week when it starts getting colder. the reason is because i plan on keeping my hair in braids. and with all the butters i have i think my hair will stay silky soft.
 
Oh yeah I forgot I put oils in my tea rinses too. I should be good. I'm always on top of my moisture because I refuse to wear hats or scarves or any type of headwrap in the winter. I do wear a scarf around my neck but of course that has nothing to do with my hair. I just started my new reggie this week and I already forgot to use a creamy leave in on Monday. I will try to remember tonight because I will be trying Darcy's.
 
and with all the butters i have i think my hair will stay silky soft.

I Agree.:lick: I used the Jojoba Butter this a.m. And although it's a little "Oiler: than the Aloe and the Macadamia....My Hair was extremely SOFT. I'll just have to dial it back and not be so heavy-handed. But it was very, very smooth.

Yeah.....Those Butta's are Da' Business.:lick:
 
Ladies how long do you usually dc under the steamer or dryer, sorry if i asked this before, but this sucka feels good. Im chillin:cloud9:.
 
T, you are soooo right. i cant wait to make another purchase from texas naturals. it wont be until the middle of next month though. i plan on getting the green tea butter, macadamia butter and jojoba butter.
 
Now that I know how to fill my steamer properly it's usually 1hr & 15 or so.

Thanks shay, i don't know how long ive been under here but i will leave it on for a while longer. I understand what you were saying about how the ashlii conditioner was thin, but it smells so good and my hair started getting soft while i applied it. Yeah im going to stop soon i have water coming down my neck:lachen:
