Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge pt.4

I have it, used it once....meh. It works, but I'm not head over heals for it.

same way I feel! Sooo over-hyped lol

I baggy'd last night with my Taliaah Wajiid mix and twisted my hair with MHC Type 4. I didnt go anywhere today so Im doing a twist-out for work in the morning. I hope I don't get too much frizz. Im thinking of trying Oyin's shine & define to eliminate frizz when I dont want to use gel's or curl creams. I never hear yall talk about that! Are yall using it? Gotta finalize the use of my passes soon :lol:

And What I'm buying next.:lol:

That's what Immabe Talmbout.:look:

I got plenty to talmbout.:lol:
 
ok im finished twisting my hair. i brushed through each section using the TT. i lost some hair but no more than if i would have used the denman. with that said i think im going to put the TT away for now.

T, i havent used the mixed greens yet. this will be my first time.
 
This was my first time ordering. I did a haul. I got like 8 products. Lemme see I ordered the Cuckoo for Curls DC, Deep Moisturizing Conditioner, CoCo Meringue, Shea Sorbet, Hair Glosser, Sulfate Free Cleanser, Curl Cleanser, and the Moo La Creme. I also ordered a different scent for each one of them :look:.

I just checked the site out! Her stuff has some yummy ingredients, but everything has aloe vera gel in it! I would have wanted the deep conditioners but idk about aloe vera gel...when I use it to smooth my puffs my hair is pretty stiff by the end of the day, even if I use a moisturizer under it, so Im not too sure about it....have u tried any of the stuff yet Shay?

Not yet. It's either sitting at the condo office and I will pick it up in the morning or it's nearly here. I will definitely give reviews on everything. My hair loves aloe vera gel though. It's my gel of choice and I practically have to put an entire bottle on my head for it to get hard or sticky. When transitioning I used to get the best twistouts from just aloe vera gelly. I also did that pre poo today from that one thread on here: mixed aloe vera juice with castor oil then topped it with some vatika frosting :lick:. My hair loved it.
 
Welp.:sad:

Back in the Wig tomorrow.:perplexed It was good being out of it for 2 weeks. I don't think I slapped that sucka' on once. :lol:

And it was good to concentrate on my Hair, Buy Products and Chat with You all at a leisurely pace.

Now, back to the Grind. Thankful & Blessed to have a Job, so I will make the best of it.:grin:

Will rotate Njoi Ayurvedic, nbd & MT this week under durag and Wig.
 
i might do the aloe juice leave in think that thread was about. something about detangling with aloe juice.
 
I am so tired. I still have to braid DD's hair. I wish I was off tomorrow too. But I am so thankful and grateful for my job so I won't complain.
 
Also guys, Carol's Daughter is having a sale...25% off plus free shipping...promo code on site...thats just in case yall wanna look and see how much you would save IF you were buying lol...
 
Hey ladies getting ready to head in, in a few. I am tired also, i tried to lay down and could not sleep, usually about crawling in the bed by now.:sleep2:. Going to go by starbucks and get that coffee to help me stay awake. This week i will concentrate on getting more rest while dd is back in school, doing more reading and writing, getting research done, using up products and spending less time on the internet. I will take one week at a time, at least going back to work will help me not want to buy any products. This is a new year and im going to stay focused. Have a blessed night ladies.
 
hey ladies. back to school and work for me tomorrow. :wave:

my twistout was adorable! especially as it grew older. it lasted about four days (the other three, i just wore the twists).

i am on a no-buy until the summer time! i don't think i'll need to re-up at any point, because i have more than enough oils and shampoos and whatnot. instead of repurchasing staples, i want to use up all my other products first. T takes such good care of me, i might never have to buy anything again. :kiss:

i plan to go in for a trim this week if they can fit me in, then i plan to get yarn braids before the semester begins. i'll try to keep them in until spring break (6-8 weeks).

as for non-hair life...i will hear about the volunteer tutoring program i interviewed for before the 17th. also gonna finalize my application for a tutoring job ($$$) once my counselor gives me this recommendation.

over winter break, i want to get a lot done. i'm only taking one class, so i want to manage my time well. gonna finally finish those blankets for my niece and nephew. on a mission to get my mother's house clean. want to start heading to the gym at least twice a week. and then party party party on my weekends (read: sleep&eat)! :lol:

this week, i need to finish my visionboard.

happy new year to everyone!

Hi ladies!

I had a good time on NYE hanging with the family.

I had brunch with a couple of friends, we went through a couple of bottles of wine. Good times!

I am waiting on BFH, that is it. I need to stop dragging my feet and order some henna and amla.

I am not going on a no buy.

I need to organize my stash. My SIL gave me a couple of salerm products and an alter ego L I that comes in viles, some type of "nourishing" L I.

I used the goldwell ultra rich poo, treatment, leave in... my hair was soft and shiny. It is a keeper.

I need to wash my hair now. My scalp is dry and starting to flake. Any suggestions on what to use on a dry scalp. I normally don't apply anything.

I didn't get a chance to pick up the dew when I was home, the snow messed up all my plans.
