I've Cut Down my Carts some more.

I ended up cutting down:

Christine Gant
Qhemet
Komaza
*Decided against MHC unless she offers more than 5 Bucks:nono:

Have Not been Able to Cut Down (YET):perplexed:

Hairveda -- ended up adding to:look:
Shescentit

Already Purchased:

Claudie

Still undecided what I will get (or if I will get) from:

Jasmine
Njoi
Curlmart
AV *ik*:rolleyes:

It may not be as intense or costly as I thought. Now ya'll know ALL THIS is Subject to change.

Oh Yeah, and JBCO.
 
Okay, I just got an e-mail from MHC. The $5.00 off $30.00 is NOT her BF Special. Just a little something she is trying out (I guess like monthly specials).

So, she may be back in the Game BIG TIME.:lol:

I do LOVE her stuff.:look:
 
KomazaHairCare has their 2 ounce Moku Hair Serum for $7.00 Originally $14.50 (for 2 ounces) until November 10th. Shipping is $5.55 which is almost as much as the product.

I've been wanting to try this.......although not on my BF List.

Brownie518

What do you think? You use this? Is it worth the $5.55 Shipping cost on 2 ounces worth of product?
 
I didn't really like the curlformers...I think I like rollersetting better. It was a mess to sleep in. It didn't take too much time to put them in, but I feel like it was too much stress on my strands.
 
IDareT'sHair

Distilled Water, coconut oil, safflower oil, wheat germ oil, passiflora edulis seed oil, rice bran oil, euterpe oleracea pulp oil, guar gum, quaternium 87, Lacto-ceramide, Pro Vitamin B5, Lecithin, cinnamon cassia, potassium sorbate.

Well, the ingredients are not too unique, but with a Serum you would only need a tiny bit.

How often do you use heat on your hair? Are you using it as a heat protectant or are you just using it to seal? If its the latter I say no, and if the former I would refer the the question before it to make the decision.

I was going to use it before getting under the dryer.
 
I decided NOT to get the Moku. I was just in my bathroom and noticed a 2 ounce sample of the Deja's Hair milk sitting there and I had a 'revelation':lol:

It doesn't take $5.55 to mail 2 ounces of product. So........No......Imma pass.:nono:
 
Mornin ladies, going to start my hair when i get back from the store. Kind of irritated, someone woke me up beating on something outside. When i go outside i ought to run his tail over:look:, shoot waking me up.:ohwell:. Hell its cold outside, should have did that mess in the summer, fool.
 
Morning Ladies.

Getting my weekend/work week dinner cooked. I'm trying a new recipe so I hope it tastes good. I added some things to make it a lil spicer for me.

I did my twists a lil on the bigger size and I'm not all that fond of them. I like when my twists look full, like I have my hair out, and less like twists. I hope I don't have to keep doing them small to get that look. I need to get my twist time down if I do. I wonder what the twist out will look like next week.

I just realized I won't be able to do my hair again until Thursday. I'll probably do a twist out Tues/Wed then wash & henna Thurs, retwist and wear it like that for the next week.
 
this month i plan on using up:
kbb milk
darcys leave in
darcys deep conditioner
mhc horsetail
mhc sofias thick and healthy
and maybe 2 bottle of vo5 conditioner.
 
Hi Ya'll I'm back. I needed to run to the Mall to make a return.

You'd neva' know there was a recession. It was Packed. What's up with that?:look:

I forgot my DSW Coupon. :wallbash: There is a ULTA right next to DSW:look:
 
chebaby said:
just got finished twisting my hair for a twist out with darcys daily leave on. i dont have high hopes for the twist out since none of them have been good as of late.
i did the bentonite treatment and i dont know if i will ever do one again. the finished result were amazing. my hair looked better than it did after henna. however this stuff does not swell into a pudding like henna, its all lumpy and hard to mix. which means that i was not able to coat my hair the way i wanted to. i left it on all of 10 or 15 minutes and rinsed and rinsed and rinsed. then i put on darcys deep conditioner for 5 minutes. my hair was very soft but felt like there was a little bit of oil on my hair.
after i dried my hair in a towel it was light and fluffy(still felt a little oily) and my curls were hanging a little more. but as i looked through my hair there was a little clay still left.
i didnt wash it out lol. so i just twisted.

I mix my bentonite or rhassoul clay using a hand-held or immersion blender. It whips it up into a pudding-like consistency. It applies like any DC and rinses out the same.

I mix mine with rose water or nettle tea or coffee. I start out with a little liquid and continue to add liquid to the clay until I get the pudding-like consistency. If I mix too much, I store it covered in the refrigerator ‘til the next week or so.

I love, love, love using bentonite or rhassoul clays as a clarifier or face mask or body mask.

Give it one more try by mixing it with a hand-held mixer. I'm sure you'll be amazed at how easy it applies and rinses out!
 
Just finished cooking. Had to run to the grocery tore to pick up something i forgot.

They opened a new BSS next to the grocery store. I went in to see what they had going on in there. A lot of high end salon products, make up, face/body stuff, and curling irons/flat irons. They will have a salon in the back in the next few months. The only stuff i saw i might buy would be the liter Giovanni stuff, i would try the mixed chicks DC, and the argan oil stuff. There was only 1/2 a shelf with stuff for black folk.
 
Wait a Minute Ya'll.....As much as I love Komaza (and I do :love: Komaza) they are NOT Funny.:naughty:

That is not 'cute' to keep eeking out little bitty sales weekly and then make up the price basically with the shipping. :naughty:

And yes..........I DID bite the apple the 1st 2 times.:ohwell: I got the Coconut Curl Hair Milk the 1st time and the Jojoba & Hemp Sealant (which I love) the 2nd time.....

But that is not Cute.:naughty: Especially when I think about that $5.55 for Shipping for that little tiny 2 ounce bottle that prolly cost less than A Dolla' to mail 1st Class.:rolleyes:

You gotta try this! Please! You'll be amazed! If ever I feel an itchy scalp coming on, I do a rhassoul clay mask. Rhassoul detoxifies and exfoliate the scalp. Bentonite and rhassoul clays are a must-have in my regimen. And you know the story of how bentonite saved me from going to the emergency room when I had an allergic reaction to a product.

I almost bit! But I'm holding fast to just getting the moku hair butter, Califia Care Styling Pudding and Intense Moisture Therapy during BF. I love her Califa Moisturizing Spray; but I'm stocked up on that 'til Spring.

Thanks for this Info Girl.:kiss:

Yeah....I want the Olive & the Intense DC'ers. I did not see/notice alot of $9.00 items. That $7.00 Caught my Eye, and I really didn't look at anything else much.

*off to look*

Blue: Are you getting anything from Christine Gant?

@IDareT'sHair
I had actually added the Califia Care Conditioner and the Califia Care Shampoo to the shopping cart and thought "I don't need them". LOL!!!

From ChristineGant BF:

1 – 8 oz. herbal hair butter
2 – 8 oz. Mixed Greens

I’m stocked up on her Shea Mint Moisturizing Shampoo and Detangling milk. I stocked up during her 15% off sale in Sept.

All four are staples of mine.

I wanted to try her face and body products, but thought better. I have face moisturizers I need to use up and I've just discovered Nilotica shea butter and will be using that during the cold winter months. Plus I still have Jasmine's shea butter and shea souffle to use up.

I did notice once you put them in the Cart it comes up for $9 bucks.....

And NOOOOO I didn't get anything.:lol:

I will wait to see how much I can get the Olive & Intense DC'er for during BF.

re: Christine Gant: I have 2 8 ounce Herbal Hair Butters in my Cart.:look:

IDareT'sHair & Pompous Blue- I think all these little sales are for the same purpose that La Colocha was talking about with what Macy's, Sears, Kmart, and the rest of them are doing. I've noticed that even folica, and curlmart have kicked up their sales.

I wish Komaza would put the Olive Oil DC on sale then I'd really bite.
 
Vonnieluvs08 Yep! It pays to be a savvy shopper....to know when a percentage off is a good deal or not. I'm so pleased with the sales SSI, Hairveda, beemine and 'nem had earlier. I stocked up and glad I did. Won't have to purchase from them during BF; therefore avoiding the stampede and the delayed shipping. Hairveda made my year when she had her sale. Wow! I don't know if she'll offer better prices during BF; but I won't have to order anything 'cause I stocked up w/her, too.

I had always wanted to try JaneCartersolution but couldn't justify her prices either. But when she had a 20% off sale in July (free shipping, too), I ordered her nourish and shine (really like this). And replaced my DH's Afroveda's Curling Custard w/her new Curl Defining Cream (20% off coupon) and free shipping.

The 15% off Curlmart coupon allowed me to try myhoneychild products. I had been stalking MHC's website for months hoping she would have a sale. I couldn't justify spending full price + exorbitant shipping; then along came a curlmart coupon and my apetite was sated for a minute. But it's an insult for MHC to offer $5 off and exorbitant shipping!

My BF wants include ayurnaturalbeauty.com, Komaza and MHC. I hope they have at least 20% off and free shipping. They have great CS and fast shipping!

Yes ma'am i don't share info to deter anyone from buying what they want. We work hard and deserve it, i just don't want people to get bamboozled. Bath and body works sent me a email for b3g3 sale with a dollar shipping on tuesday, hurry for one day only this is a great deal. I got the same email today for the same sale. *gives the look my momma used to give before i got my behind whooped* lmao.

You made me LOL!!

I've been getting those "TODAY ONLY SALES" emails, too, from L'Occitane, Dillards, JCPenny, Kiehl's, etc, and a few days go by and they offer the same or better sale. I learned about these marketing strategies when years ago I was hoodwinked into ordering some cotton bras from JCPenney on sale but with high-a$$ shipping and a couple of days later, I received an email from them offering free shipping. I canceled that order and made a new order to get the free-shipping! The nerve! LOL!
 
Hey, ladies. I'm here at work, wishing I was home lounging, browsing and filling carts like ya'll. Well, like T, anyways. LOL!
I ended up not doing my hair last night. I hope it doesn't end up looking a mess by Monday. I don't want to have to do it on a workday. I need my sleep to grind through these 12hr nights.

...let me go see what Komaza doin'...
