Use 1 buy 1 Challenge 2010 pt.2

shay, you know i use protein quite often. but its usually light protein like AO GPB and giovanni reconstructor. i also like aveda dr treatment and aveda dr conditioner, giovanni xtreme and i think im forgetting one. but yea, my hair loves protein. my hair generally holds on the moisture and can get too soft too soon so i co wash with protein like 2x a week.
 
Naturals--How often do you use protein? I've always used a lot of protein bc my hair loved it but IDK now.

Ya'll it's like I've lost my mind since I went natural :look:. It's only been a little over a week and I'm off my tried & true reggie :nono:. I am just so amazed by these coils & curls that only need a little bit of condish to be defined that I got a little bit lost. To understand it a little more I've never liked my hair unless it was in braids and now I :love: my hair. Translation--for a minute I was feeling myself a bit too much :giggle:. I got compliments every single day. That never happens to me. I'm back now though :yep:.

So PC finally saw my hair today. Our schedule was opposite for like a week. He was like "look at you" :blush:. He told me that it looked nice. I told him I was having a bad hair day and he was like "Why, I think it looks good". Let me go fan myself and I will be back :lachen:.

:yep: That's sweet!!!

I continue to use protein even being natural you still need it. I use mostly reconstructors which are lighter but I'm thinking about cutting cost and use and eggs and moisturizer cheap conditioner.

Great, we are very critical of yourself. I've worn braid/twist out and hated them but other like them.
 
Shay, I use a lot of protein too. My hair responds well to it. I use a light protein twice a week or so.

I got my HV shipping notice today too Brownie.
 
tonight i am going to massage my scalp with coconut oil and moisturize my hair with kbb hair cream. tomorrow i will do my hair a tad bit early so i can deep condition. i plan on shampooing because i used burnt sugar pomade and pur whipped gelly to slick my hair back and i wanna rinse it out. so i will shampoo with aphogee shampoo for damaged hair and deep condition with kbb deep conditioner. and then of course i will style with kbb milk and cream. man i love kbb. im going to use all my stuff up so that next year most of my stash will just be kbb, afroveda, miss jessies and kckt.
 
Hey Ladies........Got My Claudie's On:grin:

Everything with that has been taken care of.:yep:

btw: May finish up a Darcy's Transitioning Hair Cream this week. I have a back-up, but will switch to the Milk & Olive Protein Hair Cream.:lick: (Which Brownie says smells like Buttercream):grin:

also, I've been using a little JBCO this week on my ends. Feels really good.
 
Hi ladies, just checking in. Im finally washing my hair today:look:. Im cowashing with curl junkie and going to braid with lucious and deja's. My mom gave me some of her carol's daughter loc butter and im going to seal with that. I haven't really been up to anything hair wise.

@shay- i hardly use protein at all, for me the less the better. I don't do any protein treatments. The last time i did one was last year and that was with mayo.
 
Hey ladies!

I haven't bought anything... I finished a joico protein something or the other, I am getting a touch up tomorrow and a color.

I want to try out a couple of wigs. This will be my first time. Any advice? I want to try a couple of model model wigs.
 
i co washed today with almost a whole bottle of kbb deep conditioner. it will not be a repurchase. i like it but its just like co washing with the hair milk basically. after i finish this bottle tomorrow i have another bottle that is about half full. the scent i used was lavender vanilla:nono:. this stuff is so strong and ewww. i have never been a fan of lavender i dont know why i bought this scent. on top of that i used hair milk in cranberry cocktail and the hair cream in coco lime and do you know i still smell like i bathed in lavender vanilla:wallbash:. i mean it really smells like i took a bath in that crap. my hair is so moist though:lick:

Hey!! Today is my last work night for the week and I can't wait to wash tomorrow. I need some protein so I'm going to do a nice treat with Claudie's, I think. :lick: I'll wash with Aveda DR poo and DC with some Curl Junkie or Bee Mine. :yep:



Real quiet in here...what's everyone up to???
 
Good Evening ladies! I see everyone is washing there hair using up somethings. I have wash my hair Sun/Tues, co wash monday used up Lacio-lacio is over a year old won't be repurchase too much$$ and it did nothing, use up honey hemp HATE IT, gone Aphogee green restruct(will repurchase). I have something I'll be sending to niece and will be taking some stuff to DMV meetup.
 
I haven't used up anything yet. That VO5 is holding on for dear life. I might use that and the Organix coconut conditioner tonight or tomorrow. I have a job interview tomorrow an I don't know what I am going to do with this head.
 
im not liking my hair right now. its just blah to me. my curls dont seem like they need a boost of protein and i dont have the protein it needs on hand right now. i think it needs giovanni xtreme and i ran out. everything else is too light. so tomorrow i will pick up a tube of giovanni and deep treat with it.
 
just got the Elucence line and washed with it. Shampoo smells GREAT - but 'eh, we'll see. I can say it didn't weigh my hair down, nor did it give me a reaction.

So no I will not (after I purchase the Thermasmooth line next month) buy anything else until I use up some of this stuff.

Oh, and Megatek....but that's it.
& A Denman brush - but that's work related, it doesn't do so well on relaxed hair.

yea me.
 
Lacio Lacio - EMPTY!!!!!!!

not going to repurchase - I bought Crece Pelo leave-in and I hope to get to it eventually

I spent all Tuesday morning putting in some small almost mini-twists. I ended up washing with Shea Moisture Cleansing Poo, cowashed with Skala SB and did a quick rinse with the G3 (still scared of protein-real or fake), then DC'd overnight with Jasmine's Nourishing condish mixed with my HOT oils. My hair came out buttery soft.

I used Mozeke for the twists- Coconut-Kokum Milk, Sweet Almond Pudding, Mango Cupuca (sp?) Holding Butter. I'm indifferent with the actual twists but the feel of my hair has me in love. I thought the butter was going to cause build up but I don't feel it.

I think if I cowash again with the Skala SB and use that up I will open up one of my Moist24/7 and try that out. I have enough of everything (cowash, DC, stylers/leave-ins), but I love variety and choices and I'm starting to feel like I'm not going to have that now. However I refuse to buy any more hair stuff (unless SSI has a sale).
 
I want to buy a Short wig human hair :D I saw it on Hairsisters It was cute!

I was in Sally's yesterday and picked up a bottle of nail polish and was about to buy some shampoo, I put it down and my son said "GOOD JOB MA." I actually left out of the store with the one thing I went to get , Nail Polish. :)
 
i shampooed today with aphogee and the conditioned for about 5 minutes with aveda damage remedy conditioner. that conditioner has so much slip and when rinsing it left a silky feel on my hair. so today i decided to style with hair rules curly whip. i think i love this stuff. it gives curl definition like aveda be curly but be curly leave a bit of a crunch and this does not. it has such a soft hold that the front of my hair needs to be re done. but i didnt apply it in sections so tomorrow i will to see what results i get. my hair is so soft and this was all i used, no oil or anything.

is damaged remedy(aveda) protein or moisture. i used it because i was looking for a bit of a protein boost but i swear its like pure moisture for me.

robot the color of your hair is the color i want for my highlights. i want a honey blonde color all over though.
