La, you just reminded me i have a half full bottle of kckt. i havent used it in forever. and i have a small jar of kccc, maybe i will try to use it on twists for a twist out and fluff with oil. maybe that'll take away the horrible crunch i get with it.
or maybe ill just toss it.

Mix just a tiny bit of oil when you apply your kt with you kccc on top to see how it does. You may not have too much crunch.

La Colocha they have a professional size Primer Portion. It's a really good value and in a squeeze tube.

Thanks charz, i need to find out the shelf like because this tube lasts forever. Lawd knows how much is really left when i cut it open.
 
I want to DC my hair tonight, I dont even know with what though. I got stuck babysitting a 3, 4 and 6 year old so I probably wont get around to it until midnight. I want to make another butter or try to fix the one I made recently, I like it creamy and smooth and the last one I made was as hard as a rock.

I like the TW protective mist. I tried it out on my niece and her hair likes it too. I didnt have to dilute it, I thought I would but nope. So far, its looking like a definite repurchase.
 
I don't know if i have to work tommorrow night so wash day plans are on hold for now. I did find out that we are going to be extremely slow next year( hopefully not) but it was discussed in a meeting. So black friday will be scaled down to as little as possible. I have crossed out oyin and just plan on the bf sale at bath and body works. I will still get my knot today and conditioner. I will not do another qhemet order either, what i got should last me for a while.

La Colocha

Hey ladies! I just got back from working out tired. Nothing new with hair for me, now I got alot of products (hv, KCNT, etc...) T, that no buy lasted 1 sec of a minute:lachen: Girl you spend you $$ anytime, anyway you like:grin: How's the scalp?

Ltown

I haven't really bought 'that' much *looks around* Just 3 or 4 things this entire month and that's pretty good for me. In fact, thats a RECORD!:lol: :look: :blush: *seriously*:ohwell:


The Scalp is better but my skin is totally irritated.:nono: Calling my Derm in the a.m.
 
Evening, Ladies! I hope everyone is doing well.

I made 14 weeks post yesterday. I will relax this Saturday instead of the next as I had planned. I'm a little nervous and hope that I don't underprocess my hair.
 
Hey Ladies
Trying to get on and post has been a trial. I hope everyone is doing well.
I have narrowed my BF list done to HV,QB & SSI and only a few items from each if the discount is good.
I've used up my last honey hemp condish and I don't think I will repurchase.
Currently I'm trying to use up my extensive pomade collection. I will do twists with them.
I hope they fix things soon cuz it's frustrating me to no end.
Have a great night ladies

Thanks, T! This is the longest I've ever stretched. I don't know if I will go this long again. I'm going to take a page out of your playbook and schedule everything I will do that day.

If I were anywhere near you, I would be honored to assist you. Hey! Next time you self-relax, can you video tape it? That might help you with future self-relaxing sessions. Just a thought...
 
chebaby- I liked the Nupur and Hibiscus combo. I mix Hibiscus into all my hennas and always rinse and cowash after so if it is more gritty I'm used to it since that is normal for me. I think I'll know with my next henna (next week maybe?) if I really like the Nupur and if that will replace Karishma since its always on backorder.

I'm trying to decide if I want to wear the fro for the weekend or do a chunky twist out. I am upset that my bangs are heat damaged even after taking many precautions to prevent further damage. I'm definitely not putting any heat to my bangs again.

I do like the way my Fro is looking with this hair cut. The layers in the back look much better. The sides are not as drastically uneven as before. My mentee thought my hair looked cute and likes it curlie vs straight.

thats why i dont use heat. for a lot of us the bang area is the finest and easiest to damage. when i was transitioning i used joico reconstructor every week and 2 heat protectants and still got heat damage.
its not worth it.
 
Hey ladies.

My cherry kernel oil came today. Its a little heavier than darcys and I am going to add some peach fragrance oil that I ordered to scent it.

I need to find something really light to moisturize with when I am retwisting every night. The darcys peach kernel milk is good and maybe if i don't use it every night, it will be light enough. The curls milkshake is good too.
 
I was just happy that the new growth is fine. This was hair I was going to have to cut already so I'm not too upset.

I need to find out how to trim hair when its curly. I have like 3 major layers in my so its not easy to do even in twists.
 
I just used an olive oil mousse in my hair, and wet wrapped instead of rollersetting. It turned out good. I am almost apl and this is too much hair to try and roll. I still have a lit shedding but it is better then it was in the summer.
 
Dang. I missed all ya'll being on here, finally. I was watching NBA and baseball. And I think I'm getting a cold or something. This cough I have is funky.

So, since the Sephora discount should be good for a bit, I might have to get a few more things. Mostly stocking stuffers......and a few more things for me. No hair stuff, though.I am just loving how my hair feels after using that Methi. For BF, I'm going to see if I can get 2 of the Step 2s. I see myself using that a lot. She needs to put that joint into a 16oz bottle and sell it like the Moists. For real. Anyway, I hope I catch ya'll on tomorrow.
 
Yeah it seemed like after 11pm or so they "reset" something and it went back to "normal". I was a reading and posting fool after that.

I'm going to cowash today with my cowash mix and use that up. I'll open something that is older and needs to be used up. Will do a quick DC with my DC mix.

I checked out my stash and realized I'm really set on a lot of stuff. If I buy during BF it will be from greediness mostly. Things I would think about buying are DCs and moisturizers since they tend to be the pricer items I buy. Cowash condish would have to be mad cheap (B1G1) for me to stock up on those.
 
Hey Ladies
Glad to see everything back to normal (knock on wood).
I'm going to do an ayurvedic treatment today and put my hair in twists.
I'm really loving the cocasta oil; it really makes my hair shine.
 
vonnie if i buy on bf it will be greediness too lol.
i found a salon about an hour from me that sells curl junkie :look: yes, i will be taking that drive. they also sell curls, sister locks and mixed chicks. all i want is curl junkie.

i cant believe i actually kept these twists in all week. i will be putting in another set on sunday. its so cold here i cant imagine co washing my hair during the week.

i heard the weather people think this winter may be just as bad as last :nono:
i guess i better get a blanket and a pair of changing clothes to put in my trunk so i can stay at work if it snows like last.
 
Well I've been sick for the past couple of days. Thankfully my hair hasn't suffered. Basically been baggying nightly but not cowashing daily. Today was the first time I cowashed in 3 days. I used up my Claudie's Deep Moisturizing Conditioner. It will be a repurchase at some point.

About the site. I read Nikos' announcement and it basically said we are going back to the old forum with a lot of changes. He also said the site will be down Nov 5th through the 8th or 9th. We will be experiencing some serious withdrawals. I guess we might actually get some stuff done too :lachen:.

Brownie518--Methi causes a serious case of hand in hair syndrome :yep:.
 
i just came from the bss a few hours ago. they had 32oz bottles of miss jessies creme de la cream and curl :rolleyes:
the talija waajid black earth products had a few mistakes on the lable that i dont think the company would have let get by. and they had curls products. here i am thinking i hit the jack pot finding curl locally and they are fake. what was in the whipped cream jar was not the whipped cream.
