Hey lady, missed you. I think it is more economical, a gallon lasts for a long time. And all you need to add are the oils or fragrances that you like so it should not be hard.

Hey LC! I missed ya'll too! I peep in every now and then to see if ya'll are doing more buying than using. :lol: I like the bases on EW website and the prices aren't too bad. I'll probably make a purchase at the end of November/beginning of December. I should probably order samples first.
 
Hey ladies, I hope everyone is well. I had to rewash my hair. I am going to air dry and try a braid out tomorrow. I think my hair hates donna marie's dream curl cream. At first I thought it was KBB nectar making it look like straw all day today but I washed it again and tried to used the dream cream and as I put it on, I could feel my hair turning to straw. So, I stopped using it and moved on to the donna marie butter cream instead.
 
I finished a Nioxin shampoo and a Redken Smooth Down conditioner. Also, Darcy's Peach Kernel oil, a CoCasta, and Claudie's Honeysuckle Creme Rinse.
 
So analyzing as usual--I don't think I will repurchase Cutie Juice, DB's Daily Leave In or Qhemet's Burdock Root Buttercream. I also will not repurchase aloe vera gelly, grapeseed oil, shikakai oil, or sweet almond oil. I like all of these products but I don't need them. I will use them up and move on.

How is Jasmine's hair reconstructor?
 
I don't have any Handmade stuff in my stash that Old, well.....maybe a Jar of Sitrinillah, but I agree with everything you're saying @Vonnieluvs08

Here's a New Dilemma that I am currently dealing with. I have 5 Jars of DC'ers open. Which is a practice that I do not like.

Right Now all Open are:

Jasmine Avacado & Silk
Jasmine Babbasu Xtreme
Jasmine Rebuilder
BeeMine BeeUtiful
Afroveda Ashill Amla

So, I think I may do my hair tomorrow once I take these kids home.:spinning: I will Co-Wash & Steam.

BabyBoy is suppose to come over tomorrow:lick:.......but I think I need to do my hair.:lol:

I know my BF will be really scaled back.

btw: Njoi is having a Sale and I bought 2 items from her (if you already haven't seen it in the "What Did you Buy this Week"):lol: :look: :blush:

Now T remember you were telling me about having too much stuff open. But its easy to not realize how much stuff you have open especially when you want to try stuff in your stash. That's why I always have several containers open. I love trying stuff. That's always been my downfall as well as sales.

I have open:
SSI-Banana Burlee 16oz
Komaza-Olive Oil 16oz
DC mix-moisture/protein (WDT,Joico KPak, and some left over cowash condish with oils)16oz

I still have:
1 gallon WDT
2 SSI BB 16oz
Jasmines A&S 8oz
Jasmines Babbasu Xtreme 8 or 4oz
Mozeke Carrot 4oz
SSI Okra 8oz
and a gang of cowash condish from HV-16oz stuff, SSI-16oz, Skala

Shay, I haven't used it. I had one and surely can't find it. I think I might have sent it to someone and just don't remember. LOL I was gonna ask you, figuring you had tried it.
 
I'm supposed to be doing my hair but I don't go back to work until Wednesday so I have time :look:. We'll see I may still end up doing it today.
 
Morning ladies, going to moisturize today with kt and castor oil. I will purchase my bases on friday. The only thing i need is avocado oil which i can find here and bentrimonium methosulfate (sp?) i need powder form and not flakes then that is it. I can start mixing when i get my stuff.

Let me know where you find the BTMS in powder form. I have the flakes and it is a pain in the ***.
 
Afternoon Ladies.......:grin:

I still have Da' Kidz...:spinning:

I will be taking them home in about an 1 hour or 2, then I will come home and do my hair.

Prolly won't use up anything.:ohwell: I will co-wash w/Nutrine and do a Quick OriO as a final rinse and then Steam. Prolly with Jasmine's Rebuilder & Reconstructor and use Jasmine's Avacado & Silk as a Final Conditioning Rinse-Out. Or I might use the Babbasu Xtreme in Buttercream.:lick:
 
I figured they would be, so far i only see the flakes but i will keep looking.

Ok girl i cannot find the powder. Just the flakes, i guess i have to be a g and use the damn flakes lmao. The only other things that i know provides slip is marshmellow root and slippery elm but dealing straight with those makes my hair dry and they are snotty like. And you have to use a lot of the herbs to get the slip you need to detangle.
 
Now T remember you were telling me about having too much stuff open.

@Vonnieluvs08

Oh....My Newest Additions (The Ashlii Amla & the BeeMine) were sent to me to by another Poster to try/Sample.:yep: So, they are in Rotation with the 3 Jasmines I already had open.

I can't wait to try the BeeUtiFul or whatever it's called. (It smells like Irish Springs or Zest Soap though:ohwell:). Very Soapy Spring-Minty Fresh:lol:
 
@La Colocha

:lachen: at the "G" :lol:

Go On "G" :lol:

:noevil: About the Marshmallow Root & Slippery Elm! :lol:

Now that Nasty!:blush:

I'm going to get my conditioner right, can't be scurred i gotta be a g about it.:lol: Gotta get that stuff together like ive been doing it all my life. lmao. If i can build a tractor transmission from the ground up i can make some conditioner.
 
Yeah I have some marshmallow root and it is snotty. I call myself making my own detangler with grapeseed oil,btms, and marshmallow root :nono:. I need to stop while I am ahead.
 
Hey ladies..

T and ladies some steamer questions..

1.)Every so now and again.. a random stream of like 8 droplets comes out of either side and burns the ish out my thigh or tatas...:lachen: wherever it lands. Is mine defective or can you not control that with steam???

2) It smells funny.. rubbery... yes I put distilled water in it... Is mine defective???

3.) Do you ever turn it on low.. turning it on low was the only way to stop the droplets???

Somebody help a playa out..

Oh and LC... we'll be sharing recipes.. because I plan on doing the damn thing with the bases!!!
 
hello everyone. i am going to make a coconut milk mix using amla, brahmi, evoo and honey. i hope i like it. i will deep condition with kbb mask.

Hey La, I like my conditioner to have bm too. I remember seeing it on lotioncrafter or fromnaturelove but don't recall if it's flakes or powder.
 
Hey I'm back from MS, good ceremony but boring as heck. I'm tired won't do the hair today off tomorrow for columbus day but I'll be laid down getting another root canal that I hope goes well as the last one.

T, you are really sweetie to watch some kids for the weekend especially since you don't have any. I'm bless to have a friend like you when I leave dd to go out of town.

*fabulosity* :eye:

I keep the 'vent' closed. And I keep a towel around my neck, shoulders (like at the shop) for Thighs, Tatas and other areas.:lol:

Mine has those 2 buttons, I always have them pressed on the "ON" position at the same time. (so I guess that means it's on "HIGH"?):burn:

No Rubbery Smell. It's new & it's from China (prolly), so that is probably normal. :look:

I know you can clean it with White Vinegar & the Distilled --- meaning run that through there for a cycle.:flush: (when you're non-steaming) but I haven't done it before.

Some others have.

Okay...So Overall, how did you like it?:blush3: And what did you use?
 
La, I am cleaning up and kind of puttering around the house. I am starving trying to wait on dinner and not have 50 snacks before its time to eat.
