Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge pt.4

[Ltown]

Just came back from personal training. He tried to kill me but he's cute (married) so it helps. Starting on my hair now.

My mom taught me how to crochet years ago. I used to crochet blankets for my baby dolls. She would always have to start it for me and that's all I know. I tried to look for a crocheting class and/or group and everything seems to cater to knitters.

Shay cool add you to the party, you really don't need classes anymore. I took knitting class last year and it help but there are so many you tube and online help now. My other PJ is yarn, I actually has so much I donate to nursing home last week. here is link for knitting those that may be interested: Learn How to Knit | KnittingHelp.com
Crochet you tuber: art by teresa YouTube - Art of Crochet by Teresa - Stripe Crochet Beanie Cap Hat

Ok, last on craft there is more information in the cooking thread.

I know this is about hair but since we all are trying to buy less just a small diversion in conversation

 

[La Colocha]

Teresa is who i learned my stitches from but i could not remember her screen name. She has all kinds of videos, her easier videos i only watched 2x and got the stitch. I have to refresh myself on it. I made dd a scarf and i made her doll a blanket.

Morning Ladies....Hope everyone is having a good Sunday.

Sipping some Java and put on a little Natures Blessing and MT. I should do some stuff in my Stash today. Will pull out Komaza Olive to add into DC'er Rotation.

I had some ouchless hair pins and don't remember what I did with them?

The Cherry Blossom Jasmine I got smells wonderful. She has the best smelling stuff.

Morning t, I am planning what i am going to do to my hair this week and what i am going to use.

Morning t, I am planning what i am going to do to my hair this week and what i am going to use.

That's a good plan.

I guess I will 'attempt' to sleep in this Henna/Indigo Wednesday night and finish it up Thursday a.m.

Other than that, I guess will continue to use Natures Blessings and (maybe) Mega-Tek throughout this week.

Plan to seriously Shop My Stash for the next few months.............

 

[Ltown]

The little snow we got stop me from going to the shop for the Komaza it's 40 minutes and it was not serious or critical to drive with idiots. So I save $$ because I'm sure I would have picked up more stuff.

 

[La Colocha]

Finished my hair, i used the kbn oil instead of fluertzy because i want to save it. The kbn oil is really nice too. Does anyone have the list of ceremide (sp?) oils? These two oils really smooth my hair and i am wondering if they contain ceremides.

There are several -- here are the ones I know off-hand.

Walnut
Wheat Germ
Kukui Nut
Hemp Seed
Sunflower
Safflower

I think there are a few more. Someone else may have a more comprehensive list.

No problem, yes both of my oils contain grapeseed oil and the kbn also has olive oil.

Was surprise at the % of the various oils on the list (if accurate).

Yes, i didn't see where the poster got her info but she was talking about crisco and it contains a ceremide. Also what these 2 oils have in common are apricot oil and sweet almond oil. I bet the slip comes from the grapeseed and they work well with the hair dew which already smooths the hair.

Here is the thread

Its a freakin Ceramide!!!! - BHM Talk Cafe : BlackHairMedia.com - Page 1

I really loved that Grapeseed Oil I had, but never replaced it once I ran out. It made a great light oil during the warmer weather.

I also loved Avacado Oil too. Although it doesn't contain ceramides, it is a nice oil.

I love avocado butter so i can imagine the oil is just as nice..

 

[La Colocha]

Now i am going to be looking for ceremides in everything i have.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Yes...The Oil is very, very nice & light. So is the Grapeseed. Product A-D-D has kept me from replacing these 2.

May revisit them once I get my oil(s) down with the use of HOTS.

Did a HOT Friday with Burdock Oil w/Ceramides. I have about 1/2 Bottle left & 1 Backup of this oil.

 

[La Colocha]

Finding out this info is going to help me to determine which vendors i keep also. Most of kbn's products contain ceremides, so that is a keeper. I will put her leave in on my wish list because that is about the only product i don't have from them.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I just pulled the Komaza Intense Moisture from my Stash (instead of the Olive).

Will Steam with this, this upcoming washday after my overnight Hendigo treatment.

Will Do a HOT w/Burdock Oil with Ceramides -- should use this up.
Co-Wash w/BFH Plueberry
Apply Henna/Indigo overnight

Finish up in the a.m. with lots of VO5 or Suave and DC w/Komaza under Steamer

I hope I get that Hendigo consistency 'just right' since I will try to sleep in it.

And not too 'runny'.

What's Your Moisture Regimen consist of? I try to moisturize daily underneath that crazy durag.

I still have not located those hairpins. I cannot remember where I stuck them?

I moisturize every 2 days with a leave in and seal, then i try to slip in a few days of baggying my ends in between. Usually my hair stays soft even when i go to remoisturize but today this gt butter had my hair feeling dry and matted.

i went to hobby lobby today and was so over whelmed lol. they have everything. i ended up getting some yarn and crochet needles. its been a while since i crocheted anything, i used to love it years ago.

Oh snap you crochet too, so do I, and Robot, we need to get together, hang out at Charz(she has the Pibbs) do hair and have drinks of something. I'm crafter I have all these craft ideas in my head would probably go broke going to hobby lobby.

I'm try Brownie mixer is that asti champagne?

I'm a crocheter but haven't done it in years. It was my fave thing to do while watching TV. My mom is quite the knitter and spinner. I tried but I'm not very good.

its been so long since i did it i purchased books on it lol. and ive never knitted before but i purchased a book on that too. its winter so im gonna need something to do when i dont leave the house.

since im only doing 2 braids today i can wait till later to do my hair since itll only take 10 minutes to do the whole wash condition and braid thing lol.

Ok, well I have officially decided that the hair dew just ain't all that for my hair. Its good but not great. No better than KBB. It works for my daughter and son so I guess I will keep it around.

 

[chebaby]

oh and i put the dew away until i finish this bottle of kbb milk.then i forgot i have a carols daughter milk too. that was really good to me last winter.
