Uh. Huh. If you say so...... *rolls eyes* about it being fixed & back to normal

Me tearin' up that Mention Key prolly burned it out!:lol:
 
I got my hair cornrowed today. I applied cupuacu butter before I left and my hair feels so soft. The girl commented that it felt really nice and it was easy for her to cornrow
 
So, pretty much back to normal now, huh? We'll see...

Anyway, I ended up not doing my hair again since I was sick. I'll just have to wait until Wednesday. I'll use my Smooth Infusion set, see how I like that.

I've started a list of the products I have on hand. I'm moving some stuff around at home so I've been reorganizing some shelves, and that makes it easier. I want a complete list by the end of the month so I can see what I'll need to stock up on and what needs to get used up and done. I want to go into the New Year with a stash of staples so I don't have to do any buying (and browsing) for a couple of months.
 
Girl, that happened to me....I was like *confused*

Anyway, Imma try to see if this posts. We'll have to 'talk' once things are back to normal. I am looking forward going into 2011 with a lighter list of vendors I purchase from. I know some of them will be eliminated or only purchased from on a small scale.

Not sure who those are yet, but I will be making it happen definitely after BF.
 
Tryna' decide if I will order the Christine Gant Herbal Rich Hair butter(s) especially since I ordered the Green Tea Butter & the Horsetail Butter. I may pass on a CG Order altogether.

Just thinking....................
 
I didn't expect the site to be up again until tomorrow. I keep wanting to hit thank and like. I have to get used to the old format again. My hair is a HAM. i am about to try to do some twists or bantu knots on dry hair and take them down tomorrow.
 
T, i purchased 1lb of acai and shea butter and everything else i got 8oz. i have so many blends in my mind i cant wait to get it out.
next week i will purchase some burdock root powder, marshmallow powder, some more ayurvedic powder and some murumuru butter, maybe some emu oil(it sure is pricey though i might have to let that go. people want me to make stuff for them which im looking forward to but i dont want to get in the habit of using emu oil).
i also want that horsetail butter because i have a very nice butter blend in mind with that. oh and some carrot seed oil. :look: thats all, not much :lachen:
 
i got lazy and just put my hair in about 7 big braids for a braid out. i wont be surprised if it doesnt come out right lol. its been forever since i tried a braid out.
 
Chebaby, You are becoming quite a "Mixtress" I am very Proud of You. You are really giving lots of 'thought' to your new personal product line.
 
There are some really interesting Butters & Oils out there and alot of sites that sell them.

Today, I added some Wheat Germ Oil in my Conditioner. I will be using Oils as part of our mini Oil Challenge for adding to DC'ers, HOTS, Rinses etc....

Using EVCO this week.
 
I'm surprised this thing is up and semi-functional.

T-don't be blaming me for your spending habits. LoL! I'm surely one of the ones who is rethinking this whole online/hair purchasing. I keep looking at my closet and know I don't need another thing at this point. Esp when that Gallon of WDT keeps checking me out "saying open me".

I'm definitely curbing my spending in 2011. I'm trying to figure out who my fave product lines are and only purchase during sales (SSI, Komaza,maybe HV). I don't think I'm giving up on handmade products because my natural hair has done so much better with them then as far as DCs and stylers. I could use Tresemme Naturals as a cowash my hair loved that stuff. I sit down and do my list this week since I'm off.
 
hello ladies
so I've been trying to post and it has been so frustrating..
at some point I realized that my subscription was expired, so I renewed, typed a long message and poof gone..oh well
just wanted to say hi
and Idaret's hair" I've been trying to answer your pm all weekend...lol but w/o any success.
I used up 2 products this weekend :)
basically i am going to try to only indulge at oyin..but who knows between today and black friday...lol
 
Mornin all, when i did my hair i used suave almond and shea conditioner mixed with qhem's softning serum and my hair felt really good. I also realized that i can't shampoo so often like i do. I can tell a big difference in my hair just co-washing. I finally settled on my bf stuff from qhem. The ghee and another serum, i won't need anything else, as much as i would like to try her new dc when it comes out, i don't need it. My bottle of suave is almost gone and i can call it a staple. Love that stuff.
 
hey everyone. im up really early today.
anyway im going to stopby whole foods today and see how much their EOs cost. maybe i can find some vitamin E oil too.
 
Hi Che!

Girl, I can't believe you're AWAKE! You are serious about mixing this stuff up aren't you?

Grow Girl! This is exciting.
 
Morning everyone. Wanted to see if I can get up in here! It was very frustrating and I needed to talk to Ya'll last night. *LOL*

Nothing's going on. Just slathered EVCO on my Hair. I lost alot of hair this time. Prolly a mini Setback (but I don't want to claim it). The matting and the SSK's were horrible and my hair feels 'lighter'.

I'm anxious to see how the switch back to No-Lye will work out for me. For some reason, my hair just did not do well with Lye or maybe it was from all My FAILED Self-Attempts at Relaxing....

Who knows......if this No-Lye doesn't work out, will I attempt to 'Transition'? Something to think about.

I guess I'm ranting, so I need to get moving.....

Have a Great Day Ladies.
 
girl i went to bed early and now i cant sleep. its good practice though because i agreed to work someone else shift tomorrow, what was i thinking, so i have to be up extra early tomorrow too.
 
Girl, and I'm sitting here like I ain't got no where to go. *LOL* Imma a HOTMESS. I feel like I didn't have a weekend and now it's over. *sigh*
 
T, you lost a lot of hair detangling?
maybe the coconut oil just make your hair feel lighter. im with you, dont claim a set back. and if it tries to claim you run the other way :lachen:
 
i feel like i didnt have a weekend either. i need a vaca so bad but i cant afford to take one with all the cut backs. they are making me crazy.
 
I was bad and gave in and ordered from Camden Grey. I got Avocado butter, shea butter, acai butter, wheat germ oil, rice bran oil, hemp seed oil. I will make a new face butter with this and some left over butters and add to my DCs and cowash. The shipping was $13 UPS Ground which was 35% of the total price. I'll only being ordering this stuff every 6mos if that.

BF shopping is still a toss up.

I feel a cold coming on so I wont be washing until the weekend. Need a cute formal style for Saturday. Any ideas?
 
T- I bet it isn't that bad. Wait until your corrective. My detangling looks like I could make a wig at times. Don't worry...that will make it worse.
 
so i took my braids out and it looked cute but there was hibiscus powder everywhere. guess i didnt rinse good enough. so i co washed with tresseme curl and then did a quick 5 minute condition with spiral solutions deep conditioner, this time it didnt tangle my hair. however because its like puttingshea butter on wet hair after i rinsed my hair was so weighed down. so i put giovanni direct on my ends along with coconut confidence and dried in a towel for 5 minutes.
then i twisted in medium twists using bee mine curly butter and luscious moisturizer. i hop i can leave these in for a full week.
