Can't Nobody put it down, like they put it down at Brother Franklin's Church

That's how a lot of African churches get down. I remember walking past an evening service when I was in Kenya and they were having a shouting good time. They get down with the Lord for REAL!!

I hate I missed all the fun. Yall WENT IN on AV. LMAO!! I laughed at like 20 posts in a row.

Che, you ain't told nothing but the truth about people whining and complaining about the quality of AV products and then running trying to stock up. I would be doing that if it was a product that I loved but I just can't get with AV like that. The only product I have tried are her butters and they are ok to me. One of the totally twisted butters went moldy on me. Come on man, how does that happen?

I just washed my hair with the Bee Mine ayurvedic poo bar add twisted with ori buttercream. The texture of that ori is interesting. I don't know if my hair is going to love it. It really doesnt matter because it won't be a repurchase in either case.

yes girl. i like hair butters so i wanted to try all of hers. and they were cheap when you think about the average price for a hair butter is $16. but her butters never did anything for me that sunshine didnt do lol. i love the smells but really what can they do???
IMO its really about the deep conditioning and treatments. shoot i rarely put leave ins and moisturizers in my hair anymore unless im twisting. and at night i add a little moisturizer to my hair but i no longer use leave in and moisturizer after i co wash. i just shake and go so her stuff does me no good anyway.

 

[*fabulosity*]

Y'all are in here got me rolling... I washed my hair and airdrying in a bun.. I used the hairveda tea spray and the 4th new and improved ends hydration.... I was worried but I said I'm wearing a bun to work tomorrow how bad could the castor oil be.... so far the back which is dry feels soft...

I don't even use the AV and I just want to slap her. And then inconsistent products.. no. HAYLE no.

Plus that letter seemed so condescending.. like she don't need customers to have a business... She must've wrote that when mad.. that's like one of them emails you get at work and you write a response to it... but you send it to your work friend first.. and they're like uh naw.. don't send that... calm down first.

Either way I already saw some people still plan on buying it... smh... to me.. it was already good for her to be making what she was making (on relatively inexpensive ingredients?!)... but I literally died at SHEA BUTTER and ALOE VERA GEL price increases... I mean could it at least have been something exotic... next she's going to be saying that there was a price increase on distilled water... I guess I can change my status now.. I got my point across.

 

[chebaby]

Fab, yes girl lmao. im mad she didnt just list some oils we never heard of. at least then i would have been like "ok i bet it does cost a lot to get oil from never ever land"
this chick said shea butter and aloe vera. if it cost that much i can give her the hook up to my bss, they stay with the shea butter lmao.

 

[BrownBetty]

Bless the hearts of people who plan on still purchasing AV.

I am scared for dude in the video rolling around.... but the video had my hollering.

 

[Ltown]

Good Morning!

Charz, video is on point! I only brought samples of av and did not like them so no loss for me either!
I used up gvp antisnap, won't repurchase too watery. I poo with Jasmine nourshing, then steamed with bamba. Bamba makes hair soft but it smells terrible, almost done with that and won't repurchase.

IDareT, what did you do with your dominicain products you were going to use this summer, and are you using MN?


So is the gift card plan on or off?

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I told another Poster, if she sent $ for the shipping, I would pack them up and send them to her. She sent the Cash & I sent them to her Monday.

Haven't used the MN but just thought about @La Colocha when I saw some the other day in the Grocery and how people said it cured all (if not most) of their scalp issues.

I never thought about that when we were talking about "itchy scalps".erplexed

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Morining Ladies.........

Just checking in on you all. It is Nippy (again) today. I guess, I might as well accept the fact that Fall is definitely here.

I guess I should get up from here and slap some Njoi Moisturizing Hair Lotion on and start to get ready for work.

I Shol' would like to make a Huge Cup of Tea, Put on my Snuggie and "CHILL" all day at the Crib.

Hopefully, when I get home, I'll be in Haul Mode and can give a HV or Jasmine update or something. erplexed

If I don't get my AV today, I may file a PayPal Dispute and ask for a Refund.

Thanks t, but im not using mn. I don't knock anyone but i can't do it.

 

[mkd]

I got my HV shipping notice so hopefully it will be here by friday!

 

[Day36]

Hey ladies!

I dont even use/never have used AV and I want to slap her for that foolishness. She's game playing. I read that letter and signed off. lol.

mkd when did you order your hv again?

 

[mkd]

I think the sale started on that tuesday, but everyone ordered like at midnight. I ordered at 9 am on tuesday morning. Day36 when did you order?

 

[Day36]

mkd

I think ordered that Sunday Lawd, I aint never gonna get my products. But,the same night, I got like an email saying my products should ship within 15 days and they had already received my paypal payment. Did you ladies get that as well?

I got that email soon after I ordered. I think you will get your shipping notice in the next few days.

Good morning ladies
I was reading all the posts I missed about AV and you all had me rolling.
Charz I LOVE your video; on point.
Av was the first company I purchased from online for hair stuff beacuse it was cheap but they didn't keep my hair moisturized so I moved on.
Really for me it 's not the price jump ,even though it's crazy but she's just not trustworthy.
The initial increase was to better shipping times and hire staff and that didn't change now she pulls this out of the sky. Like everyone else said she's taking us for fools.
Furthermore someone on FB was saying we should stop bashing her because it's good to support black companies;???
I don't care what race,creed or nationality the company is I should get what I pay for in a timely manner, with quality and integrity not excuses

 

[Shay72]

See that's why the first sign of "fool acting" --I will quit a vendor.

I quit Afroveda after the first price hike. I quit Njoi CreationS when Charz told me there was SLS in the ACV rinse bar. I'm not interested in KBB because of all the foolish posted on here. I work too hard for my money to deal with mess.

 

[La Colocha]

Good day ladies, going to moisturize today with just knot today. I used my hv buttercream last night and i smelled fire, the smell lasted almost all night. And i thought that little jar would be gone but a little goes a long way. I will be ordering more on black friday, but im not getting hair products from there. My biggest list will be with qhem then i will stock up on more knot today from curlmart. My first open bottle is half gone and will be used up in a few weeks. Other than that just chillin waiting to pick up the baby from school.

 

[chebaby]

im so excited my indianfoodstore order came today.
i co washed with vo5 passion fruit smoothie and then used vatika oil and vatika frosting as a leave in. my hair is so shiny, bouncy and soft. i really feel like as long as i co wash and deep condition good i do not need a leave in. my hair has been amazing without it.

i think im going to have a sale.

Your not going to use kbb anymore?

 

[Charz]

I see Qhem didn't answer Ms. Terri's question about raising her prices.

I guess she be raising them.

I'm willing to pay up to 20 bucks for BRBC.

Charz i really hope not, she has been going this long without raising prices. Hopefully if she does it won't be $20.00. Do you know the shelf life of her products? I know i will be stocking up on what i want.

 

[chebaby]

Your not going to use kbb anymore?

yes, i will use up some of what i already have. however i will no longer purchase anything kbb. and i dont need all the hair milks i have. from kbb i am keeping my mask, 2-3 milk and my butters. i plan on selling the other milks which might be about 3.

 

[chebaby]

i aint willing to pay $20 bucks for no body's moisturizer. i have not seen a moisturizer yet that was worth $20 and yall know ive used plenty.

 

[Charz]

La Colocha


shelf life is a year. at the least, i have had stuff for 1.5 years and it was good.

I know the milks last a long time, why don't you keep them in case you change your mind. That way you don't have to buy them again. I know there are plenty of products i wish i had kept, threw them out or gave them away then had to rebuy.

Thanks charz, yeah i will be getting 2 of everything that i want. That should last me all year. Then next year i can see what is going on as far as prices.
