I created two spreadsheets one for the commercial products and one for my ingredients.

The commercial inventory is mainly shampoos and conditioners. I have just added butters/pomades/oils - I have two from Darcy's Botanicals and one from Komaza

The ingredients inventory has all my ingredients listed under the following categories
- Herbs
- Essential Oils
- Butters
- Oils
- Infused Oils
- Waxes
- Clays
- Miscellaneous- here I list items such as ACV, African Black soap, Honey, aloe vera gel etc

For both spreadsheets, I have columns for the months and I update it each month. At the bottom there is a formula calculating the percentage remaining compared to the start of the year. Currently I have more than I had at the start of the year as a few weeks ago I restocked on some staples such as 5kgs of shea butter, sweet almond oil etc.

I am going to buy Bentonite clay next week and I will also need some JBCO soon. I will only be restocking on staples.

Che, what are you using to place your powders in tea bags, cheese cloths, or coffee filters? I use all three depending on what powders I'm using. Now I've read some infusion let sit for a couple of weeks, some days. I know that moe grow infusion that was posted here they let it sit for a couple of days.

Christine Gant lets her's sit too.:yep:
 
My plan for my hair changed, I wash with giovannie tea tree shampoo(love it) protein with Nexuss, DC with Jasmine ultra dry. I tried coconut milk with ayurveda powder last week it was ok, but the milk smelled spoiled so I won't be using that again.
 
i just got finished mixing up an avocado butter i think i will love. i made jars for my parents to try too. i just put some on my arms and i think this will be my go to winter body butter. i whipped the mess out of that butter lmao.

T, im infusing the "cold" way. it takes longer but im waiting on my tea ball strainer to come in the mail and then i can infuse the oil the "hot" way.

mkd, girl camdens shea butter smells good to me. not too different from other shea butters ive used but mine was in a box with the cupuaucu butter so it smells a little like that to me. cupuacu smells like weird cocoa butter lol. the avocado butter looked andfelt just like texas naturals avocado butter.

since im curious, i will use the avocado butter i just made along with bee mine curlu butter to twist and i will use my cupuacu butter to moisturize daily. the cupuacu mix is harder than this mix so its more of a sealer.
 
im about to shampoo now and instead of mhc honey i will use curls tea conditioner since its already in the shower lol. i will use that up before i move on to another conditioner.
im so excited i will finish my hair early for once lol.

im letting it sit because im lazy:lachen: i wont be able to do anything with it until next weekend anyway.
i saw a few videos on it and i like the way mountain rose herbs showed it. he let his sit for weeks i think.
but i saw another video where i think the girl only let it sit for 3 hours and the oil separated from the powders. i thought that was cool:yawn::lol:

Girl, I don't need to buy a thing.:ohwell:

Anyway, I have bought more stuff before BF than I prolly will during BF:blush: :nono: :drunk:
 
i cannot believe i am finished with my hair already lol. i am on a roll today.:lol:
i did the same twists i did last weekend but i refuse to take these twists out early like i did last week. i will keep these in until sunday when i need to do them over.
i wont lie, as much as i usually hate protective styling, i am loving having my hair put away for a week at a time. it makes me feel like when summer hits i will have retained all my growth.
 
I'm thinking out my game plan for how I am going to recover from the damage from my Lye-issues and failed attempts at Self-Relaxing and now using No-Lye.:ohwell:

I'm already thinking of my Regimen for next wash day and how quickly might I recover from my knotted, tangled, matted hair and the breakage I encountered.

So, it's giving me a project. Hopefully, by Next Relaxer January, I will have some progress and recovery. I will relax at 10-11 weeks.

I will be seriously monitoring my Recovery.:yep:
 
T, how do you detangle your hair? do you think you need to change how you detangle or just how long you stretch?

I think the Lye had something to do with the matting/tangles.

When I read through the MBB Lye thread, everybody was saying their hair matted/tangled/knotted/loc'ed.:look:

I'm just glad I made the switch. Thanks Americka, Brownie, Cream Tee:grin: for convincing me to switch to No-Lye.
 
I did my excel spreadsheet, thanks Rosa! I input everything my memory for now and it shouldn't be off much. I don't have numerous quantity of the same products so this will be good now I need to filter with date columns.

Uh?:look:

Translate that into English!:lol:

I wrote mine down on Paper and got wo' out.

Had to stop. I will rely on memory for my inventory. Too Overwhelming.

Believe it or not, I have a mental snapshot of everything I have.:lol: And Unfortunately....How Much:blush:
 
I was just thinking about how I can get away with wearing twists to work. I would really like to start doing that and I think it could get me down to washing once a week. I am just not sure if it would fly in my office.

i think it would be beautiful:yep: your hair is long enough to do twists and pin it up and back in different styles. you can do a nice bun, a pin up with a nice pin on the side, im see so much in my mind you can do.

Me Too! I was going to suggest Hair Clips, A Barret,Hair Jewelry or a nice Headband.

Do you think you could get away with that?
