i forgot i have a vatika frosting too. its either 1 or 2 years old. i should put it in the fridge because i love when its solid. when its not its just an oil. and i have monoi de tahiti which is basically the same thing.
 
Okay, so, I pulled out my AO Blue Cammomile, J/A/S/O/N, Natures Gate & Millcreek. I think I will start co-washing with these for a minute and use them up before I go to Oyin, HV, Komaza, Jasmines, Ori etc....:ohwell:

I have 1 AO, 2 Jason, 1 NG & 1 Millcreek, so I should be able to get through these fairly quickly.

Won't replace any of these in the near future.:nono:
 
I poured the brewed cassia over my head. I don't think its going to do much. But I guess its a way to use it up.

Yes!! You are definately reducing your stash!!! I am tired of looking at these powders. I need to either use them or get rid of them. They are just looking at me every time I go into the bin they are sitting in.

Is anyone else doing their hair tonight?

I still have too much stuff tho'. :blush:

But it's coming along. I am happy that I am able to reduce it by any means necessary. :spinning:

I learned a "Valuable" Lesson about buying all Willy-Nilly. I won't be making that 'costly' mistake again (that's for sure).:perplexed :rolleyes: IA: You just get tired.:lachen:

That Cassia Gloss sounds good.:yep:
 
this up coming week i will be co washing with giovanni tea tree conditioner. the only othe co wash conditioners i have are AO GPB, AO blue camomile, aveda be curly, aveda scalp conditioner and i think thats it.
 
Yeah, I pulled those out and will start to work on them. Then I will only use stuff like HV, SSI, Jasmines, Oyin etc....for my co-washers.
 
I finished my hair earlier and im so glad i did because im so lazy right now. Has anyone tried using the whole kinky curly line? I would use it if i still lived in cali but here the seasons change too much, dry one day humid the next but in consistant weather i would .

I hear you girl. You know "we" can't be foolin' around, the way this crazy weather is........:cold:

But honestly, I think I'll be 'set' for Winter.

I have my Buttas, Creams & Oils all Lined Up to Fight that Hawk....:bud:

Now all I need is a couple more Durags and a Wig or 2.:freezing:

Che, how is the be curly conditioner?

I don't really use oils much either. I like VF but I use it on my face.

La, I just use the knot today and the KCCC. I am thinking about buying the shampoo. Have you used the curling custard?
 
I left the cassia that I brewed in the coffee pot in for 2 hours and my hair felt rough and strong afterwards. I guess it really acted like protein. I am DC right now with the CJ banana and hibiscus deep fix (thank you Brownie). It went on so smooth and its just so thick. I hope I like the results because it seems like it will be amazing.
 
So, I went through my stuff and pulled out some things that had less than 1 use left. I was able to finish a CJ Deep Fix that I didn't know was there, some hempseed oil, some Kukui nut oil, another Okra that had a tiny bit left, and a bit of Babassu Xtreme from Jasmine's that I mixed with the Okra to finish off. For my washes next week, I'll try and use up the last of my MHC Honey Hair Mask, SSI Moisture Mist, Garnier Sleek & Shine serum, and maybe a Hydratherma Naturals oil.

Full disclosure - I bought 3 butters and a deep conditioner from Marie Dean. :)

I tried it before but it made my hair too crunchy, i followed the directions and tried it different ways but it didn't work. I like the smell of it though. I wish it was a cream with more moisture.

NVM..goggle is not my friend :lachen:. I really need black folks to stop making these handmade products :look:.

Let me see who she is, i would get in on making natural product especially for where i live. People are looking for more natural products and the bss aren't keeping up. I could make a killing but i don't have the patience to deal with the downside of buisness. I may start learning to make loc tubes because all the young guys are wearing locs these days and the bss doesn't even carry them.

Eta- marie got too much going on for me. Too much stuff to choose from.

Marie Dean, Ori organic more natural hair products:nono: I'm lurking here got to stop buying or my stash will never go down :lachen: My sister/friend benefit from my pj buying them heifer are not getting anymore either, they need to pay it forward:lachen: But I'll be bookmarking for future reference:rolleyes:
 
Morning. Sitting here in Charlotte's Airport. For an airport it's really nice had a nice mall thing in the center. I'm just glad to be here it was a Murphy's Law kinda morning, but the Lord allowed me to make the flight.

Back on topic- I won't be using up anything while I'm away. I did bring Green Tea & Hibscus for cowash, KBB for daily moisture, Shea Moisture Hair milk & smoothie for retwisting. I brought my bathing suit so I may wear a WnG for the second half of the trip. I got some new ouchless goody bands the large ones that are great for puffs.
 
I don't need anymore hair products. I have 3 jars of VF in the fridge and 1 in the closet. For some reason I didn't use it this summer like I did last year. I'll have to use it more in the fall/winter when I start twisting it up.

The Marie dean stuff looked nice at first glance but I agree with LC its too much stuff to look at. Sometimes variety is a hindrance. It's like going through a clearance rack at Macy's or something to much to look at, too many choices. Maybe I'm just not in the mood to buy either.

Thank you Ms. T:hug3::hug3:

I have done quite a bit of traveling. This trip is a continuing education conference and my employer is paying for it:grin:

I have one last trip a women's retreat with my church over my birthday weekend in 2 weeks. We are going to Sandy Cove.

I'll be done for a while after that. Only a couple of vacay days left for the year.
 
Im thinking of going back to use aubrey organics as a base for my dc, even though it caused build up as the wdt did, my hair is thicker now and can tolerate more. I find myself using more product which before it would take forever for me to use something up. I have about 2 more uses of the cj smoothing conditioner which will not be a repurchase and maybe 3 or four more uses of my wdt which stretches a little further because it has more slip.
 
Hey ladies. My hair turned out really nice. I love the cj deep fix. Love it! I also really liked using the perm rods. I wanted to attach a pic of my twist and a picture of my son at his first football game but I can't figure out how to attach pictures anymore. Do we have to go through another site now? Like photobucket?
