Elle: What have you tried in the Komaza Line?:lick:

And what do you like?:look:
Click to expand...

Mmmm...

Califia Styling Pudding
Coconut Hair Pudding (or whatever they call it)
Coconut Curl Lotion
Hair Nourishment Oil (stanks)
Shea Butter Lotion
Olive Moisture Mask (Hated it)
HoneyComb Hair Rejuvenator (still don't know what this really does, shrug)

My staple from the line is the Califia Styling Pudding, and I would buy the Coconut Hair Pudding and Shea Butter Lotion again. Everything else was just okay, but I used the Coconut Curl Lotion when I first BC'ed so I might like it more now, who knows...

Ohhh snap, I just checked my cabinet and I only have one use left of my Califia...'cuseeeee meeee while I go get some mo'... :look:

Ohhhh snap again, they have 16oz now? Yitadee!

OMG...I don't know what exactly did it...it may have been the mix of preservatives they used, but Izzy HATED that. It tangled her soooo bad it was weak sauce! I had to add a fcukton of glycerin to it to make it slippy so I could get rid of it...

WOW! That's Terrible. Especially when it's being listed at the top of the Moisture Game in their Line-Up of Products!:sad:

Yea, I know a lot of people really like it, but it just didn't work for me. It was ICKS MCGEE.

I just bought a 16oz of the Califia. :spinning: I almost got the Coconut too but they are basically the same thing...boundaries...

I think I may skip KBB on Monday and pull out the Komaza Olive. I know it gets Stellar Reviews.:blush:

I will put both Komaza's into Rotation along with the BnB's Hair Masque (which I happen to really like very much).

It worked Famously under the Steamer.:lick: And it rinsed clean w/no buildup.

Oooh yay!!! I wanna try the BnB under my steamer. I'm glad you liked it. I still have another jar left.

Hopefully, if your Rations were on Point, Less Henna More Indigo -- You should diminish the Red Hair. :yep:

I'm sure it looks very nice & not 'clownish' at all.:yep:
Click to expand...

I tried...:lachen: We'll see.

It's not really clownish I'm just embellishing...it is rather bright though. I just want it to look more natural.

Like I don't like having a hair color where people are like, "I love your hair color, what did you use?" I'd rather it be something that gets, "Is that your natural color? It looks like it could be."

Yeah, it's definitely all about getting those ratios down.

Henna vs Indigo unless you're going for the Red.

I like that fact that in about 3 days post, everything settles down a bit and the true color positions itself.

I'm always pleased at the results after the 3 day Oxidation Period.:yep:

What ratio do you use? The chart I read said to use half and half for brown hair.

No. I always use about 1/3 Henna to 1/2 Indigo. I just want enough of the Henna for the Stain for the Indigo to attach itself. :yep:

I don't want any remnants of "red" I want a deep dark brown.:yep:

(No Greys):look:

Ahhh okay. Yea I don't want mine to be too dark either. I want more of an auburn rather than a bright red like I have now so it's closer to my natural color.

How long do you leave yours on? I was pondering either 4 hours or just leave it in overnight. I would do either with my henna depending on my mood.

3-4 Hours Max for Henna. And about the same for Indigo.:yep:

I use ACV in my Henna so I think the uptake is pretty fast.

btw: I just realized while in my Stash, that I sent that Komaza Olive to another Poster a while back.

Now I may hafta' purchase it.:lol: ...........:look:

Lovely! I'll just rinse it out in an hour.

And can I just say I am MAD at you for forgetting what is in your stash! :lol: Betta get it before Monday....free shipping on Komaza is better than most of their sales.

Yeah, especially after I bragged saying I know exactly what's in my Stash and errthang in it.:look:

That dark brown jar was actually a 16 ounce Jar of SSI Fortifying Masque:blush:
 
Good morning ladies, going to moisturize today with the hair dew and fluertzy hair oil. Also going to clean out and organize my makeup stash, get rid of the old stuff.
 
I'm gonna try the Natural Jenesis dc today. It did thicken up a bit. Initially from just sitting in the drawer then I put it in the fridge. Yeah and it ain't the same color as on the site. On the site it looks like a chocolate brown, what I have looks beige. I hope it doesn't become a drippy mess :nono:.

Is the Aphogee a good replacement? Have you tried/used it before?

It went on easy not really messy. Right now it is a drippy mess and I haven't even got under the steamer yet :nono:. So I will finish this out by using it as a cowash. I said I didn't need another moisture dc anyway.
