Ok shipping is $6.35 for 1 product. Idk maybe i should have gotten it on bf. I just don't think shipping should be so high. Those flat rectangular boxes can fit 2 or 3 bottles and those are $4.95 i think, here at least.

That's "Possibly" Why Bear Fruit Hair's Shipping is so Reasonable.

They Shove those Bottles Right in those $4.95 Flat Rate Boxes.:yep:

MK.. it's time for us to tell the handmade lady she needs to get Oyin if this works out.

I know i have shipped more stuff than 8oz and it wasn't that high. I may wait for more reviews or a discount to purchase. Let me see if there are samples. Christmas and new years is coming so it may be cheaper then.

They Could actually put it in a Cushy-Envelopes and ship it for 2 DollAs':lol:
 
Well they don't have samples so im going to hold off. I know robot likes it, i will wait to hear from yall and by then hopefully at least i can get a discount to knock down shipping. I knew i should have got it friday but i was trying to be good.

I woulda' gotten it.:look:

But didn't know about it (Friday):perplexed and it wasn't on my list especially after I got the Honey Hemp from Curlmart (20% off).

Oh well, you could sign up and get the little raggedy 5%.:lol:

Wasn't much, but I went for it!:nono:

You know a PJ goes HARD:lol:

What size did you get???
I was thinking about that double (16 oz) for $19 or asking them to change mine to the larger one for that shipping.. that's probably what I should do. At least that way it's worth more.. I guess.

Shooooot..
That don't make no sense.. I probably spent >50 just on getting this stuff SHIPPED!

And you know I am the shipping police.. as much as I ship out.

Small flat rate box, medium flat rate box (I can stick a whole haul in these), and large flat rate box.. (the T size...lmao)...

I hate paying shipping.

CJ was only 6.95 for shipping and I ordered a big 32 oz cleansing conditioner.

You, Ltown & rosalind are the Shelf-Life Guru's.:lol:

You know I don't 'care' as long as it hasn't changed colors and have little green men growing out of it.:blush:Seriously: I try to not keep Handmade/Natural products too unusually long.

I have some stuff in the Fridge, i.e. MHC & Sitrinillah (and now that BnB's Hair Masque) but I don't buy much food.:look: So it fills it up!:lol:

LOL @ guru. I will use oils and butters way past their best before date if it is just for me but if I make concoctions for my friends, I do not use anything with a shelf life of less than a year

When commerical products contain water or food items I personally don't risk as by the time I see the changes any bacteria could be substantial

I said that I would investigate re the MHC products being sold in the UK but was hesitant to post it here so I am going to send you a PM.
 
Ok T,
I sent the email.. it would only be an additional 5.60... I am smoking.. I should've done that in the first place.. considering I paid 22.50 for that bottle of CG after shipping.

I am about to go on her etsy site to see if the shipping is any better.

Ok bf hair was $4.95 for one product, now that is true shipping. T did you get your order?
Click to expand...

Girl, the Bottles are Long & Skinny. I bet she could get 3 in one Flat Rate.

Yes, It shipped on the 23rd and it was here when I got here on Friday Night.

I actually had 2 orders from her that came that day. So, the order that I put in during BF is my 4th Order.:blush:

I got the Shea & Almond DC'er and the Ayurvedic Scalp Cream.

I think the Red Wine Shine Conditioning Rinse and something else.

Especially since she is running her Sale until December 31st, which was a very, very Smart Move for a vendor trying to get established.:yep:

Lemme know about that too (because that's what I paid for 1 8 ounce jar of Herbal Hair Butter).:blush:

Are you saying Bear Fruit Hair's Shelf Life is a Month & a Half:blush::blush::blush:

Yes maam that is all that she can garauntee(sp), which is fair and i appreciate her telling the truth, they may go longer. She has her products as natural as possible but i can't risk molding. I already had that experience with one vendor and that ish was nasty. I use my products on my baby too and can't do it. She uses fruit , water, oils and butters but her preservative may not be strong enough. She recommends putting them in the fridge .

Are you able to see anywhere on her site what preservative she uses as on the product ingredients listed online it just states preservative for each one

It says the preservatives we use a combination of phenoxyethanol (bactericide) and caprylyl glycol( antimicrobal moisturizer) provides protection against microbial growth in all ph levels, paraben and formalda whatever free:look:. I found it in f&q on the bottom of the site.
 
I love love the color mix I put together for the henna. Thank goodness I weighed everything so I can replicate. I think I may put a clear gloss on too.

I'm also 2 weeks post so I believe that had something to do with it also.

Right now under the steamer with Keras. nutri. Now I'm wondering if I have the desire to rollerset too - I have a heavy gym session tomorrow.
