Use 1 buy 1 Challenge 2010 pt.1

Che, the thread you started made me start thinking about how I would wear my hair if I don't see as much progress as I would like when I get my trim. I am going to go hard until the end of the year and then evaluate my progress. If I am not pleased, I am really considering a curly short cut.
 
I finished AO Island Naturals (the weird one that smells like cloves) this evening. Won't repurchase. I mixed in some oilve oil and a bit of molasses, so hopefully I should get a decent conditioning out of it.

yea me too:yep:. im going to be doing a lot more protective styles. this weekend when i take these twists out im putting some more right back in. i dont want to look up and be in the same spot.
i would probably grow dreads or go back to a twa if i were stuck.

your hair is so nice im sure all types of styles and cuts would look great on your curly hair if you did choose to cut it.
 
I am so determined to make KCCC work and not make my hair dry. I just keep tweaking it every week.
i still havent used mine yet, except on one little section just to see. but when it gets really hot im going to use it.
do you use the knot today? if that doesnt help try the kbb hair milk under it.

Thanks Che, I have been pretty much the same length for years. I think it was because I had color and was getting my hair flat ironed by the stylist every 2 weeks and flat ironing it myself a few times a week. For years, I never got past BSL. By the end of the year, I at least want to be full MBL. If not , then I will know it wasn't the heat and the color and that my hair is really fine and just doesn't retain well.

Che, I don't have the knot today but I may get it since it works well with the KCCC. I don't have KBB but it may be something I try the next time I buy a leave in:look:
 
We are really using up alot of stuff (and I am happy about that).:kiss:

Even if a few Ladies are still making purchases....and introducing a few new products into their Regi's....

Overall, We are ALL On Top of Our Game:up:...this time.:look:

Everyone's on the same page. No one is Slacking. And Everybody is really Getting it Done. Everyone Has "A Plan"

Proud Ladies.:grin: So Proud.:grin:
 
Okay....So.....:look:

Are You "Chopping" OR Are You "Shaving??":look: :look: :look:

shaving, but i've been calling it my second "bc."

i'm gonna wait until it's warm outside, though. it was beautiful just saturday and very chilly today! i need some hair since i don't wear a hat. :lachen:

but in this time, i'm going to work on my earring collection and eyemakeup. :yep: i'm also gonna invest in some more dresses and skirts. i'm gonna research hairstyles and barbershops now.
 
Miss T, :kiss: You are such a sweetheart, thank you so much for my package! I was all excited, I ripped that box open so fast :lol: You made my afternoon, thank you so much again!
 
I am gonna DC with my Jessicurl WDT while waiting for my chicken pot pie to finish cooking in the over.

It's weird that the only DC's I have right now are the WDT, Honey Hemp, Sitrinillah and my Jasmine Samples. I think I might do a contest for the Sitrinillah when I hit 500 subscribers.
 
Hey Ladies.....:hiya2:Hope you're having a Great Day!

I used up my last tiny corner of Anita Grant Cafe Latte from waayyy back in da' day! (thank you Charzie:hug3:) and also that Mane N' Tail Olive Oil Creamy Stuff.:clap:

*sure wish AG would go Stateside*:drool: soooo that .....prolly won't be a repurchase.
 
My hair is in braids with a puff. I need to take the puff out and do something with it so it wont loc up. I will use up some more Suave (Fresh mountain strawberries 30 oz 2/3 gone) some Giovanni SAS for a little protein and some Tea Tree Oil just because the tiny bottle is annoying me. This will finish up the TT oil and I will also finish up the HE LTR, finally.

One more week with this hair style..?
 
i finally used up my sunshine today. yaaaaayyyyy!!!!! lol.

when i take these twists out i am going to detangle with coco tree ghee and that should be the last of that. i have been looking for something the pre poo with and i am so silly. i have a bottle of ORS replenishing conditioner just sitting there. and i love that stuff. so im gonna start using it to pre poo with. im going to mix it with jbco, evoo, wheat germ oil and honey. not all at the same time though. thats going to help me get rid of these oils too.
and now that its warming up im going to start doing my overnight oil treatment again. even if im in braids or twists at the time. i think i will use coconut oil and vatika frosting the most.
 
i want to try the hydratherma natural line.

between now and the time i cut my hair, i predict a good 50% of my mini-stash will be gone. :yep:

Ive used the oil and the hair lotion before they both were nice and smelled sweet like butter cream. I loved the oil but it goes bad. The hair lotion worked for me when it was humid out, it contains glycerin. But they both made my hair really soft.
 
I dont know when my stash will die down. Its like as soon as I am done with something I find more stuff that I forgot I had.

i want to try the lotion. :yep: looks like i will. thanks!
Robot: That is HIGHLY IMPRESSIVE! :congrats:

Ohhhhh! I can't wait to say that!:rolleyes:

WOW! Excellent!:thumbsup:
har. :lachen: my stash fits in two drawers. i don't have half of what you ladies have. but it'll be nice to throw away some bottles.

some things i know won't be gone for a little while, but i'm not really tempted to go out and buy anything new except the hair lotion and nunu+love coconut pudding.

i think i have everything i need. :yep:
 
Hello ladies, everyone seems to be doing good using/buying 1. I have not seen any major buying hauls so it's working. I'm happy to say I used up 1 of 2 bottles of hair one with the cowashing. The weather is getting warmer so more washing/conditioning for me, when I exercise I really sweat alot in my head.
 
I wish that i could do bkt without the heat:look:, but it doesn't work that way. I haven't used anything up yet, im kind of itching to relax because i never see my length. Oh well it will pass.
 
So I'm a fan of Taren916 on youtube. I just ordered from Ricky's the headband she wears at night and I also ordered the Curls Rock creme.
im a fan of hers too. i was gonna order from rickys but decided to wait until i go to new york next month.
i purchased the curls rock after i watched her review too:look:
its ok, really no different than any other curl cream.

:nono::nono:You're just getting impatient (just like Robot) You BC'ed so you could go 'natural' -- You are just a little antsy 'tis all.:spinning:

You'll feel better about everything as the weather starts to get better.
 
Yes LC, PLEASE don't relax. That has been my biggest regret, after being natural for almost 7 years I went and relaxed and I regretted it within 2 weeks and did my third BC 3 months after the relaxer. Get you a pretty half wig or something to take your mind off your hair sometimes.
