Hey Ms. G! :grin:

I think Imma like this HH Oil. Although I've been on this Crazy Oil Kick Lately. :spinning:

This one also has bits of Herbs floating around in it. (This must be the new thing nowadays).

What are you thinking about using tomorrow?

Hairveda's Vatika Frosting as a pre poo, Terressentials Mud Wash as my "poo" and Qhem's Coco Detangling Ghee as my dc.

Then I will do the LOC method with Claudies Tea Rinse & Shea Moisture Coconut and Hibiscus Moisture mist, followed by Vatika frosting, and end with Coco curls.

I was wondering if you were still using this?:yep:

I've always wanted to try this "Mist" I may pick some up next time they have a Sale.:look:
 
I really hope I like this Sorenzo Clay Mask 'stuff' especially since I got x2 Jars.:nono:

They both sounded 'good' I just hope they aren't "messy":ohwell:....:perplexed
 
I'm about 8 weeks post. I'm going out tonight to celebrate my bday so I wanted to flat iron my new growth. I don't think I like applying heat to my hair anymore. I'm use to it being straight after a relaxer or when I have a ton of new growth I just wash, DC and leave it in a pony.

I brought the babyliss steam iron a few months ago and today was my first time using it.
 
Beamodel, I have 2 therapy wraps - old and new version. Old version has some over heated/crusty packs from me heating it up for too long. It still works ok.Tried buying replacement packs but they didn't sell them. They offered me a discount toward the new version. Both versions work about the same although they are made a little different. I think it has some spots it just doesn't cover on my head.
 
IDareT'sHair - hey T :wave: I haven't looked at her oils. I saw in the HH thread she got new stuff. I'm staying away!

Debating on if I should do an overnight dc. Haven't done one in a long time. I was supposed to wash today, but it ain't happening. Think I will dc with HH banana dc overnight, on top on Claudia tea.

Oh and I had to toss my Claudie gel :sad: it said exp 6/13 but it turned very thick, white, and more solid.
 
Thinking about what x2 DC'ers I'll put in rotation after I finish up:
Naturelle Grow's Slippery Elm, Burdock Cinnamon
Naturelle Grow's Herbal Blends

I'll either stay on Naturelle Grow & pull:
Naturelle Grow's Chamomile & Burdock
Naturelle Grow's Avocado & Aloe

OR................

x2 of the Fruity Summer Scents (Avocado & Silk or...Hibiscus) from Jasmine Bath & Beauty:drool:

Decisions, Decisions.....:scratchch

Hey Ms. Lady!:grin:

Interesting...Lemme know how this goes.:yep: Yesterday, I started to use it under Saran Wrap & my Wig (while at work), but finished up ST'icals instead.

I was thinking of trying this as a Cowash. It's not 'terrible' IMO, but I know I won't spend $16.00 on it (again).

Yeah, the Oil is nice. Lightly/slightly scented with a pleasant super light scent.

Speaking of expiration dates, I need to knock a few things out soon.:drunk:
 
Golden75

Thanks, because if it stays 'cool' through next week, (depending on your results), I'll use it Tuesday on Dry Hair under my Wig while I'm at work and then come home and rinse etc......:yep:

OT: I was just re-reading my post on those Sorenzo Clay Masks, I could always use them as a Co-Cleanse like SM's Purification Mask.

That's how I use that.

I've never actually DC'ed with it. I've always used it as a Cleanser. I'll try this one both ways.

IDareT'sHair - may be I'll use SMPM to co-cleanse tomorrow. I pulled it out earlier this week, but didn't get a chance to use it. Thanks for the idea.

You're Welcome.:lol:

I was just thinking about when I had that Pink Clay from ButtersnBars.:look:

I know I can't Steam with it, because I was scurrrd it would mess up my Steamer.:nono:

So, either I will just sit with it on w/o heat or use it to Cowash.:perplexed

I hafta' admit, that was a durn "Random" Purchase.:angry2:

I saw Hibiscus & Neem and Sea Kelp & Honey and lost my fool-mind.:spinning:

I should have thought more about the Clay-Factor.:rolleyes:
 
IDareT'sHair - I was gonna purchase that pink clay way back, but something stopped me.

I spritzed with Claudie tea to dampen and slathered on banana dc, so far so good, smoothed on well.
 
Hey, ladies!!
I ended up not purchasing anything this week. Nothing at all...well, nothing hair related anyway.

IDareT'sHair - I see you thinking about what DCs to rotate. I only use Naturelle Grow, BV Smoothie, and Vanilla Silk right now. I have the VS and NG open at the moment. I plan to bust out the BV Smoove in a week or so. :lick:
 
I don't like bar soap or shampoo bars. But I need to switch to a mud shampoo bar. My tub ain't been right for awhile. Between the Ayurvedic powders in the past, bentonite clay, and now the mud washes it's been a mess. I think I will go with Bobeam. They are on Etsy, Curlmart, and Sage.

@Golden75 Yeah, Common Sense:lol: No, I'm kidding. It was really nice, hair was soft, but it turned the water in my Steamer Pink both in the water dispenser and the reservoir. Towels were pink also. (messy) like Henna.

@Brownie518

Yeah....I wanna get a couple of delicious "Fruity" Jasmines in this summer too!:lick:

@Shay72

See...................:rolleyes: That's what I'm talmbout:ohwell:
 
I don't wanna pay that Curl Junkie or Marie Dean money to get a rinse out and protein dc. Sigh...I need to figure this out.

Okay I just saw some protein stuff I want to try from NBD Cosmetics on Etsy. So I will order my Bobeam stuff from there too.

You've tried NBD before? They had a couple things I really liked, but one of the Butters (can't remember if it was the Insatible or another one broke me out something fierce), so I stopped ordering from them.

What CJ Protein are you using? Repair Me?

Nope. I do remember you breaking out. We'll just have to see.

Yeah, I used to use Repair Me.
 
@Shay72

Yeah. I have one of NBD's Protein's. I think it's a Spritz. After the break-out I was afraid to use it.:nono:

I should probably pitch it, because I've had it way too long.:blush:

CJ has a reconstructor too. I forget the name, but I have it. I think it's $24 instead of $29.:look:

Summer was suppose to be my CJ time: Argan & Olive, Repair Me, Daily Fix, Smoothing, Strengthening, Deep Fix, Moisture Rehab, Rehab, Moisture Theory, *that reconstructor* (I think it's call Intensive or something like that)etc.....but I haven't and probably won't pull any of it out.

So now....I'll shoot for Fall.:rolleyes:
 
@IDareT'sHair - Banana DC - I just don't know. It feels like it does nothing, but my hair was very soft. What I did: Overnight DC on top of Claudie Tea. I tried to detangle this morning, but it seems like the DC dried in my hair a bit (I had on a plastic cap, scarf, and a hat to create some heat/moisture). I added oil on top to help with detangling, all good. Rinsed out, hair felt meh. Co-cleansed with SMPM, left on for about 10 mins. Rinsed with luke warm water, hair still felt meh, but slightly better. Used t-shirt for about 45 mins to soak up some water, when I took off t-shirt, hair was soft, so I can't complain. I did have some residue/small chunks, but it rinsed out easily, I think this was due to the dc "drying-out", which is weird.

I'm willing to try the reformulation at 30-40% off. I have about 1 more use of this jar.
 
Scratch NBD. Did some research and will try Shea Moisture's Yucca & Baobob as my rinse out for protein. I already use the Anti Breakage as my protein dc. I feel better now. I also use the mist and growth milk. I alternate these with coconut & hibiscus mist & curl & style milk.

Used up Naturelle Grow Slippery Elm DC

I will repurchase the coconut mango in a few weeks. Maybe for the Fourth of July. So far I like that one the best but in essence they all pretty much work the same way on my hair.
