lmao HAD it going on. i used up most of my powders and didnt restock on my henna. that shelf is empty lmao. i do still have some hibiscus powder though.

if you are in to powders i suggest yall get some hibiscus powder and add it to your deep conditioners. its like real love lmao. its the best powder for conditioning and making the hair soft IMO. when i used it my hair felt so silky.

chebaby

Maybe that's why that Banana Hibiscus and some of the other DC'ers w/Hibiscus always feel sooooooo amazingly wonderful

I think you're on to something Che!

I'll just stick to lookin' at products with Hibiscus. I ain't mixing/adding nothing! .........

 

[mkd]

Good evening ladies. I am going to wash my hair in a bit. Its my protein day so i think i am going to DC with SSI okra.

I want to buy something too chebaby. I can't think of anything either. I should have bought some stuff from HV. I will definitely catch her during the fall sale.

Che, I am scared to try the oyin shine and define but maybe it was a fluke for me too except my baby girl's hair was dry and crunchy too.

@chebaby

Something else has Hibiscus? I think it might be KBB Masque?

ETA: It's not KBB. I just looked. But I know I have another DC'er w/Hibiscus.

I want a huge haul from ayurnaturalbeauty and Claudie's but I will wait until April for that! Good idea che with the hibiscus. I think I will get some from ayurnaturalbeauty to add to my Sitrinillah!

Headed to the gym, just wanted to stop in and chat with u ladies a second! Gonna come home and rinse with warm water and do an overnight pre-poo with coconut oil, safflower, jojoba and olive. I'm really trying to use em up! I will talk to you ladies later on tonight!

i dont think its a fluke. i think something in it causes it to be very hit and miss. i was surprised my hair liked it this time because before that was the only oyin product i didnt like, besides the honey wash.

 

[mkd]

I don't know what to get. Nothing is really calling me. i bought the kids some spring clothes and got a few things for myself. I may just get some sandals tomorrow and nothing hair related.

i saw some of the cutest sandals at steve madden that i want so bad. i really only purchase clothes for the warmer months. for winter i keep the same jeans, and boots for years.

Finshed Up my Hair. Did use up an HTN Protein Balancing L-I. Have B-U's. M&S'ed and have everything tied down for the night.

Already looking forward to next Wash Day.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Thinking about adding another Reconstructor into my Regi. Right now I'm using Nexxus Keraphix.

I may put SSI Okra into the Mix Next week and alternate between the 2. I still have at least 1/2 Bottle of HTN Protein DC'er left.

I've used it at least 4-5 times (and I've used alot). This stuff lasts.

Still unsure why Ltown used her's up so quickly. Mine is lasting forever.erplexed

[chebaby]

[mkd]

[La Colocha]

Hopefully, if/when I do this April No-Buy

,

Hey ladies, just checking in. I will be up for a while so i may head to the grocery store tonight instead of in the morning.

 

[mkd]

chebaby,did you figure out why your darcys curling cream is in a jar?

 

[Shay72]

Been back from the game for a bit. I had a lot of fun and ShayShay was looking fierce. I can count on her about 95% of the time . Thinking about the Oyin sale bc I figured out I only have 2 bottles of J&B. IDK though bc I would love to get some Dew and HH on sale too. We'll see.

 

[chebaby]

mkd, i think they just put it in the jar. maybe they ran out of bottles lol. but i checked the ingredients and its the right one. it smells like jolly ranchers or some kind of candy.

I used it tonight. I really really like it actually. It holds like a gel but it isnt drying at all unlike a gel. If you don't like it, I will buy it from you.

 

[mkd]

chebaby, do you like cj curls in a bottle?

ok ill let you know how i end up liking it. what did you use it with?

@chebaby, do you like cj curls in a bottle?

i like curls in a bottle a lot. i am planning on buying a bottle this summer for wash and goes. its more of a serum than a gel.

I used it with a komazaa leave in Fab gave me a sample of.

How are you using curls in a bottle? I am on my way to giving up on it.

i no longer have my bottle. but i used it on co washed soaking wet hair over kckt. i smoothed it on like people do kccc and then put in big twists. when i took it out it looked like i had a big roller set in. i also used it on a puff.

IDareT'sHair, i haven't used it in a minute, and i still have some but you got to stop comparing our hair, being natural i'm use more because of the bulk, volume, texture and length. I think you like to mess with me love you


@ mkd, @ chebaby i was looking at donna marie, give me some feed back? I was thinking i need to milk down my leavein with oils for my braidouts still need to reduce volume

all i can say right now is that donna marie stuff sure smells good lol. but i havent tried the cocoa hemp butter milk and super butter cream yet.
i used the butter milk last summer but only once so i cant really say much about it.
i was thinking about rebraiding my hair tonight but when i re braid it never comes out right so ill just leave it alone lol.

It smells like those old school strawberry candys that everybody's grandma used to keep on deck but nobody really loved em or hated em...u know these?

Got in late from the gym tonight ladies and washed with CV Marshmallow bar...I have a SLITHER left, I haven't really used em since my transitioning days! I rinsed with Jasmine's Shea Cream Rinse and I'm doing an overnight HOT with a mix of EVCO, EVOO & Safflower. I mixed up WAY too much and was tryna CAKE it on so I will be a total oil slick in the AM at the gym. I have layered 2 plastic caps, a satin bonnet and a satin scarf and will wear that there. Im rinsing and detangling when I come back home and DC'ing/steaming and all that jazz tomoro. Going to post in the HOT thread and then Im getting in bed! Good night!

Ltown I luv the DM super buttercream its so moisturizing! It goes great on wet hair, dry hair or layered with gels and curl creams.
The DM curl cream is great but only if you use a leave-in. If not you will get crunch!
The DM buttermilk is a very moisturizing leave in but I love to smooth a TT or denman over my hair prior to twisting for a flawless twist-out and the DM buttermilk is kinda thin and watery and has NO slip for that.
The DM curling gelly gives great shine, definition, and hold for wash n go's. Its great for twist outs too but you can't CAKE on too much or you will have helmet hair and little bits of stuff all in ur hair! I like to use it with the buttercream, gave me a superb twist out last week!
Even though you didn't ask me I hope this helps lol
