Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge pt.4

[Ltown]

ok Im tired of seeing my face back to back in this thread, dont yall hate to be the only one posting? lol But I have a question mkd, how do you rollerset? What products/techniques? Are you ponytail rollersetting or classic 48 rollers roller setting? What kind of results does this yield, as in whats the finished look?

Beauty there is a rollersetting challenge maybe you can visit that thread, or check out youtube. I think most roller set like Mkd mohawk, and like her I use roller with snap can't get them tight for nothing. I've used lottabody and wrap solution. My set ok but still frizzy, but I have that cottony type hair so frizz is my middle name.

Girl where have you been? I am not worried about the spirit, i am determined to not fail.

.
La you are doing good and have a saving plan/goal don't let the spirit of T get you

Good morning ladies, not much on the hair front this morning. Just stopped in to say hello, last night at work i made out a time sheet to make better use of my time. I feel so rushed already lmao, talk to yall later.

 

[chebaby]

hello everyone.
i woke up early today to the smell of burnt hair. my scarf came off and all i could smell was burnt hair i tried to ignore it but when i touched my hair my hands then smelled burnt. i was too paranoid not to wash my hair. i thought a smell like that could only mean damage since last time my hair did not smell like that.
so i washed it twice with aphogee and now im letting it dry in a towel before i condition.
it needed washing anyway since all the dust at work and passing around the same hard hat
assuming there is no damage i wont be straightening again until december for a length check.

Morning Ladies.

Bout to go rinse this condish out. Going to use some leave-in, probably KBB, part the front to have a flat twist as a head band and put it in a bun.

Its still snowing so I have to give myself extra time to get all my errands done.

 

[Charz]

This snow sucks. I have to work from home and I can't get to the post office or the Apple store in my current condition.

 

[Ese88]

i wanna get a shower filter. I've hears that the sprite model is good and its available in the UK.

 

[chebaby]

now i have a mix of kbb mask, evoo and bringraj powder on. i will leave this for 10 minutes then rinse.

I wish I could stay home and work and why do you need to go out Hopefully they'll close us tomorrow or 2 hr delay.

I spilled milk on my MacBook when I was high on Percocet. It turns on but some of the keys don't work. I need to take it in.

 

[Vonnieluvs08]

Who needs Wii Fit, work out tapes, or gym memberships, when you can shovel snow every week. Man!! That had my heart pumping, a great arm work out!

I like the way my flat twist in the front and bun turned out. I think doing the new twistout method is improving my flat twist skills.

I thought I was going to be able to use up the rest of this KBB. I sealed with the last bit of my HOT. It wasn't to heavy for my hair.

Ouch that suck! I need a laptop and someone told me to get a Mac. Is it good to get it from Apple store or anywhere, I know the price is not different?

Get it from the Mac store, you are right about the price. the only time the lower the price is on black friday.

 

[chebaby]

so i ended up leaving the kbb mask on for about 30 minutes. then i rinsed and co washed with aphogee 2 minute(used it up). my hair was so easy to detangle, like it was still straight. so weird. but the curls are back. they do seem a tad bit looser but im sure thats because i did more moisture than usual so i think by the weekend my hair will be back to normal.

i just smoothed on some sunshine and later on i will smooth it back with eco gel and puff it out. in a low puff of course because i have to wear a hard hat

 

[natura87]

I've decided to wear my braidout in a fro today. It looks really cute but I'm still gonna wash my hair tonight. My Skala Fruit Cocktail masque is almost gone, I'e got about one more use left.

 

[Priss Pot]

For the ladies that live up north, do you like it? Is all the snow and shoveling a small price to pay for living up there?

I ask because I'm in the process of applying for jobs for after graduation, and the North kinda scares me, lol. I don't deal with excess snow too well, and I hate having to drive/walk on ice. But then again, northern cities are well prepared for snowstorms whereas down south, 2 inches will cripple us .

Depends on how far North you go.

I live in Jerze, born and raised, left for 9yrs and came back. Weather-wise it is unpredictable (in winter) because last year we got over 70inches (20+ inches in 3 storms, hadn't been that bad in like 14ys) and this year the biggest we've gotten so far is like 6inches or so. Depending on what County/township/city you live in also determines how efficient they are in plowing/salting roads.

It's also quite diverse, has beaches, casinos, amusement parks, malls. Is close to DC, Bmore, NYC, Boston, Philly. We move faster in all aspects of life-driving, moving, talking, etc.

There will be no place like home but if you have an adventurous spirit and open to new things. Then you can survive anywhere you go.

 

[Priss Pot]

The only placed up north I've lived in was D.C., but that was only for like 3 months during a summer season. I really liked being up there. The last time I experienced snow up north was 2 years ago when I went to Michigan in December. It amazed me because there were like mounds of snow (like my height) on the side of the road and in the medians. I was amazed because to the people up there, life went on. Businesses were open, cars filled the streets. All they did was push the snow off to the side and kept it moving. I was like WOW.

 

[SimJam]

...... and Ive nvr even seen snow in real life.

 

[Charz]

Priss I love living in DC because I live a block away from a metro station and I don't have to drive anywhere. but if i had to drive around i would be depressed. i would only want to live in a place up north that I could rely on public transportation. my car is actually sitting at my parent's house.

After I get my PMP and MBA and max out my upper mobility at my current job I would like to settle down in Texas or Arizona.

 

[Vonnieluvs08]

I agree with Charz. You definitely need to live somewhere with a good public transportation system. I realized how important that was when I was in rural Bama (no bus system) and Indiana(small bus system).

I could get everywhere I need to go with a bus or train, but I prefer to drive out of the convenience of having my own schedule vs being on their schedule (bus, train). I think being in those 2 places for so long also made me a "driver". When I lived in New Orleans I took the bus everywhere. Even when I go back I take the bus or streetcar vs renting a car.

 

[Priss Pot]

Yeah, being in the south I'm used to having my own car and being on my own schedule, so if I were to go somewhere like D.C. then I'd have to greatly depend on their public transportation. I got along well up there for 3 months depending on them, so all was fine.

 

[chebaby]

this blizzard is crazy. it took me an hour to get somewhere that normally takes 5 minutes, no lie. and i almost crashed into the front of my job
well i guess ill be sleeping here overnight. it looks like last year.

 

[Charz]

If traffic wasn't so bad around here, I would not mind driving. but 495 is a killer. my commute from college park to tyson's corner was 1.5-3 hours with no traffic it was 35 minutes

 

[chebaby]

yea traffic is always a mess going out tysons corner.

 

[Vonnieluvs08]

Our worse traffic times in my area is during the Summer. People leave Philly to go to the Shore and AC and there is only a few ways to get there so traffic is 2-4hours during the peak times Fri 3pm-8pm, Sat morning, and those coming back on Sundays/Mondays. Any other time I can get down there in 45min-1.5hr depending on where I'm going down there.

Also those going to the Poconos also cause delays going North/West out of Philly.

 

[Ltown]

Priss, I'm vet so lived south, north, mid west, mountain. So with that diversity I can say I love it in DC area. Like Charz said you have options for commuting and what I like is where can you go and be in 3 states(dc is not a state but anyway) in 1 hr. There is always something to do here. I do get tired of the traffic but I live in Maryland and my commute to work is 30 min so it not a problem now as my dd is 16 so don't have to get to her. It is expensive but pay offset, I've thought about moving south but that will be when I retire or not. Gov had 2 hr release so I had no traffic, but folks in VA it aweful.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Evening Lovely Hair Divas.

Not much going on.erplexed Thinking about what I will put on my hair.

I guess Hydratherma Lotion.

I used up a Vatika Frosting, but thanks to Vonnie I have a back up that I will save. I love it after a fresh relaxer. It soothes my scalp.

Can wait until Washday Friday. I thought about doing it tonight. But I'll wait.

Hope to use up a few more things on Friday. Not sure what tho'? Maybe my Desert Drench L-I, it's really low. If I use it up, I'll switch to Fermodyl for a while and save my other Desert Drench.

Got a Package from Ms. B today! YAY! Lemme go open it!

 

[Vonnieluvs08]

My last pair of shoes came yesterday. Will go pick them up tomorrow.

Going to go organize the closet. I was in there earlier and it was a mess.

Going to pull out my stuff for henna. I'm debating if I'm going to henna tomorrow since the weather is supposedly going to be bad and everything will get canceled.

I'm going to mix Karishma henna, hisbiscus powder, green tea, splash of lemon juice, and a splash of HOT mix.

Will henna keep in the fridge for 2 nights?

 

[Ltown]

Well it snowing heavy here so the commute tomorrow will be a barrow of fun. I combed my hair out to afro see avatar. I had some kimmaytube leave in in the refrigerator use a little then dumb it been sitting in there too long and I have enough of leave-in already. I'm going to oil my hair with vatika tonight.
