Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge pt.4

[Ltown]

I have about 1/3 of HV 24/7 Moist left. Can't wait to finish it.

CurlyNikki just reported that her TT caused split ends . That is the exact thing I was trying to avoid. I noticed that the bristles on the TT aren't seamless either, a few of them I saw had some rough edges sticking out.

I've only used my TT like 4 times, but goodness I'm scared all over again. It makes my hair so smooth and detangled, but in the back of my head I fear that the constant brushing over and over again would do more harm than good.

i can easily see how the TT can cause split ends. for one thing the long teeth is probably what detangles but those little teeth probably sit on the hair and when you slide it down, boom, split ends. i think



im gonna leave my TT alone.[/





I never liked the TT I like denman.

at first i thought the denman and TT were very similar but now i see they are not. i prefer the denman too. but i usually denman only my ends maybe 2x a month. usually i just use my comb.

Just finished my hair.

I did a quick moisture prepoo, cowashed with shea moisture for itchie scalp, oil rinsed with my ceramide mix, then DC with Darcy's Pumpkin for 5 hours.

I just rinsed put in some KBB hair nectar in cocolime, Mozeke almond pudding and a finger coating of KCCC for a lil hold.

I put it in a hump with my banana clip in the back. My curls look so much better after these dustings.

Evening Ladies........

lol so they didnt remove the scent........

I just co-washed my hair using more HV 24/7 and detangled with the Magic Jumbo rake. I used my Knot Today/Castor/Argan/Aloe mix as a leave-in and sealed with shea butter. I forgot how much shea butter really lays my wet hair down and smoothes it, probably because it's heavy and waxy. I twisted my hair into a bun and secured with a goody spin pin.

 

[chebaby]

when the local store gets hairveda im going to have to try the 24/7 again.

 

[Priss Pot]

Oh yeah, I used my 2nd No-Buy pass. I ordered a jar of the KBB mask from BGLH last night and used their 15% coupon code for February.

Hey! I'm just sitting around, doing nothing. I washed my hair in the middle of the night. I finished a BFH Mango Macadamia.

I need a new cell phone...

 

[mkd]

I am not putting the TT down yet either. Its amazing for me and my DD's hair. I will revisit my stance if necessary.

 

[chebaby]

you dont like that it slicks down your wet hair? or you dont like that its heavy?

Hmp. Me Either.

Lemme go back and read what ya'll talmbout.

@Brownie518

Did you ever get yours?

@Brownie518

Yeah, I did. I used it and it smoothed my hair like nobody's business but it still scares me a little. I used it this afternoon again and it worked great.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Re: Tangle Teezer, since I only use it once a week and on damp/conditioned/relaxed hair, I'll keep using it (for now).

But I can't wait to try out my Super Detangling Bone Comb by Hairsense.

If I love it as much as the small detangler, I can see putting the TT away too (just not right now) because I love how well The TT smooths...........

Yup

It does.

It's waxy on wet and dry hair, and it just doesn't do anything for me. I"ve tried to make my own mixtures but nothing. The last thing I have right now with shea butter is the shea moisture smoothie, nothing.

I think TT would work for most with relaxer because you shouldn't have alot to detangle?

Exactly. (And remember the WW on the box?)

I'm sure it would be alot harder on OUR Natural Hair.erplexed

 

[Shay72]

Have you tried modifying your Denman? When I took out every other row, it went through my hair much better.

Before using the TT, I was using my Mason Pearson combs which are great on my hair too.

I did modify my denman. It only has 3 rows now.

I'm going to start doing it once a month to freshen up my ends and get rid of heat damage gradually.

I noticed today that my hair looks way better after the 2 dustings I've done so far. The last one I did I took off the scraggly ends until it was the bulk of my hair in each twist. I know some people believe in the lead hairs but for me it wasn't working out well.

So do you twist and dust that way?

@Vonnieluvs08 me too! I think I am going to dust once a month. I like my ends fresh and I want to cut this color off. Plus I hate that my hair is uneven and my crown is longer, I don't really believe in lead hairs. Its not cute.

My crown is longer too but I know for a fact my curl pattern is looser there and tighter on the sides and the back.

Well I'm not knocking the TT for anyone just for me, everything don't work for everyone and that why there is something for us all to try and like.
The TT is not totally out of my reach I do use it for knots in my ends sometime. I didn't sleep good last night so I'm having me a vodka and cranberry Brownie I don't have to work tomorrow and it will be raining anyway. I probably won't do hair until tomorrow maybe Chicoro prepoo, poo and dc

Shay, mine is longer because I messed up my nape. Its not a good look when I wear my hair curly.

Good Morning ladies!

Naturals or anyone that haven't seen this haircrush post about pin curls video on natural hair it awesome. I'm try this maybe tonight to see if I can get another style. My twist/braidout still sucks

[Vonnieluvs08]

Shay72 I started dusting in braids and twists when my hair hated heat to do a full out cut. I'm okay with having slightly uneven hair if it means I have hair on my head. For me I just try to make sure I take the same amount of hair on each braid/twist.

One person I saw trims like they would straight hair in layers...holding/stretching the hair out to the side section by section cutting each section so its even.

 

[natura87]

Used up a bottle off Giovanni SAS, a V05 conditioner, a little teeny bottle of Argan oil and an Aussie 3 minute miracle. I'm taking my braids out now, i will wear a braidout for a few days.

I also realized that a TT seems to work better on hair that isnt as kinky as mine, I mean it still works for me, but I suggested my cousin buy one for her son (3 with MBL fine 3bc )and whoa.
