Use 1 buy 1 Challenge 2010 pt.1

:lachen::lachen:

I am so happy I haven't had an urge to purchase anymore supplies. While since my last post I haven't used any additional supplies up. I am happy that I haven't bought any new products home. My hair is happy, I am happy, and I have extra cash in my pocket. LOL! Maybe all the work from the flood in my basement has me in a no shopping mode. We are remodeling it as well so we have been busy. :) thanks for all the encouragement :D

JJ.....I wondered where you been:rolleyes:

Glad You stopped by. And.....That you haven't bought anything new.:up:

We ALL Could Shampoo, Co-Wash and Deep Condition and Entire Village.:lachen:
 
I can't see worth ish! My contacts are like -5.25 in one eye and -3.25 astigmatism in the other!

Titanium hmmm??? Thanks for the insight!


If you can get the laser surgery it is so worth it. I got it in February and I wake up every day thanking god for this opportunity to have my sight back.

Otherwise I have some 5.25 brand new contacts, but they are sapphire blue. :) if you want to experiment with some color. I too had an aweful asigmatism. Not any more... Whew hew. Light sensitivity I had for forever gone. Whewhew.... nah but let me know, they are new!

(I missed you guys) I was trying to get my house (house, kids and husband) in order, 4 boys driving me wilder than wild. Spring fever I guess!

LOL
lol, My girlfriend goes you have enough for my family and yours and still enough to share with the neighborhood. I was like I am all about helping the community. :)

Chile.....We Missed you Too! @ 1st Bolded.:kiss:

@2nd Bolded....I am So Ashamed....:blush:

I Guess would feel 'slightly' more entitled to a Ginormous Stash if I had some Hurr...:rolleyes: :nono: :look:

You've got nothing on me!!:lachen: I cant see near or far without my glasses, if I lost them I would be screwed. Its a good thing I dont drive because if I ever lost them you would see a 50 car pile up on CNN with conditioner spilling across the thruway.

In other news I will make it to 2 weeks with this hairstyle (braids and a puff) on Tuesday and I will try one of my Skala masques then.
 
O.P. You are doing really well reducing your Stash.:up:

Are you planning to restock your J/A/S/O/N? I also have a coupla' J/A/S/O/N that I will co-wash with.

They're unopen right now tho'. I really like the Biotin. I have a Lavender and a Apricot (or Jojoba) that I have in my Stash. They'll come in handy this Summer.:yep:

Thanks!

Nah, won't repurchase. Giovanni and AO are my top "vita" brands. I like the apricot one best, but I also have the jojoba. They're good for 5-15 min quick conditioning though.
 
I finished up a HV whipped gelly. I'm mad when I decided to stock up right after she released the 16 oz jar for cheaper :mad: I have 4 more to use up then I will buy the big jar.

My hair is in the cutest finger coils right now. I'll leave them in till Monday morning then do a coil out for the rest of the week. Once it dries a little I'll seal with some HV Almond Glaze.

I feel You.:yep:

The only 'vita's' I think I'll keep is AO GPB.:look:

But I do love Giovanni Nutra-Fix and Alba Botanica Leave-In and J/A/S/O/N Biotin and Millcreek Keratin:blush:

I'll see how I like the J/A/S/O/N Apricot, Lavender and Jojoba (or whatever I have out there).:lachen:

:nono: Uhhh.....That was a little intense.:blush:

It will be a while before I replace anything. Unless, it is something I absolutely must have like PC.

Thanks Lady! But I think I would look crazy with blue eyes, what do you think?? How much was your laser surgery and did it hurt?

Thanks :)
 
Anybody Doin' their Hair this evening??????:yep:

I just returned from a quick trip to Stashville....Things are looking good.:grin:

I just finished. I dry dc'ed with the silk worm dc. The smell reminds me of the johnson & johnson baby lotion in the pink bottle. It left my hair really soft and my curls were all juicy :lol:
 
Why? It's just glycerin mostly isn't it?


Just from the build up in the hair, unless you are cowashing every day. You have to "juice up" every day for that challenge. I want to be able to touch my hair without my hand getting sticky or greasy. But that's just me.

Well I wouldn't be using it everyday now, but whatever. They can keep it :lol:

Whose fat little munchkin you holding your siggy?
 
Grrrrrr, I was doing sooooo good, then I caved and bought some Goldwell Definition Color and Highlights Conditioning Treatment yesterday. I don't even have color or highlights! :ohwell:. It was only $3.99 in Marshalls though. I keep trying to tell myself, it's okay since I used up that Alterna earlier this month. After all it issss Use 1 Buy 1...right? :rolleyes:. :lol:

LOL; well it totally didn't hurt. I was scared as you know what. I use to model and hated getting mascara put in. (make up artist use to be a little ticked off, going you should be use to this by now, sounds like the nurse while giving birth to my 3rd son) LOL

It doesn't hurt, and it was 3 minutes each eye. It was very pricey to me.
$5000 but it was the best 5 grand I ever spent. I would do it again in a heart beat.

I took a trip there a few hours ago just to look at it and feel (and smell my products) LOL :lachen::lachen::lachen:

It beats the paint smell which smells a little like feet!
 
hey girly! i think you can. pm shay. I know she does ayurvedic stuff and she's the hv stan. ps where are you getting co from and for how much? the place I was telling you about yesterday, in bklyn, has 16oz for $10 (I think).
WNS--You can definitely use cocasta. You can do oil infusions with the powders but I ain't that fancy. Flowinlocks could help you with that. You can also put the powders in your condishes. I do tea rinses which consists of me making a tea bag with a premixed powder and adding that to an applicator bottle with hot water, a few oils, and honey or honeyquat.

I will be prepooing overnight with the gleau oil.

I finished my bottle of Claudie's Moisturizing Conditioner yesterday. It will be a repurchase at some point.
 
If y'all could see how much deep conditioner I have in my head right now :lol: I don't know why I'm so darn heavy handed.


LOL So am I!!! Ya'll wouldn't believe how much WDT I put on and you know how thick that stuff is!!! :nono: I love it, though, and my hair came out great!!!! :yep:

I used up an Aphogee Green Tea & Keratin and Elasta Breakage Control Serum. I'm going to get another bottle of the Aphogee this week.

And I just wanted to add (again) that I loooove Komaza Moku conditioner and the leave in! :lick:
 
We are ALL Doing So Good smh!:grin:

We really are ya'll.:up:

I am So Proud of everyone in this Thread!:yep: We are getting it Done!:blush:

I didn't think we'd (I'd) ever get there.:look:

Now Ya'll I wish I had some 'Length'.:sad: :rolleyes:

Oh Well.....I just have to be patient.:nono:
