Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge pt.5

Used Up:

J. Monique Naturals Jojoba Deep Treatment (no back ups) *too bad because I really like this*

My Mielle came and I'm expecting another box from them. Also, expecting a package from BlueRoze. (It finally shipped).
 
My NG came yesterday. I still need to get it out of the Box.

My BRB should arrive today.

I also have x1 Mielle order that should ship soon. *tis all*

Will attempt to wait it out until Mothers Day (unless there is some huge ginormous Sale somewhere).:look:

I want to get Jakeala's new DC'er. Ginger & Mustard I think? What a Combo.

I may pick that up next week.:nono:
 
IDareT'sHair divachyk

Mardi Gras is a wonderful experience unlike any other. I love living in New Orleans.

Diva, you must experience it at least once.

Idare, things are easy yet boring with my box braids being installed. Been using my oils though lol.
 
I gotta go into the office for a couple hours tomorrow.

I'm tryna' think what I can wear under my Wig to Pre-Rx.

Maybe Enso Naturals Cacao Bark again?

I thought about that Hibiscus & Broccoli, but the scent makes me wanna Hurl:barf:

I'll Pre-Rx and come home & finish up.

I could use the last corner of my BRB Chair Hair Tea for which I do not have a back up.:crybaby:

Cacao Bark sounds yummy...:yep:
 
Hey ladies! Still waiting on Jakeala and Soultanicals :rolleyes:. Pre Rx with JBCO today AND I brought in my handheld massager for my scalp. Ain't no shame in my game. DD used to BRB Chocolate Rose dc yesterday and she's in love. I may try it myself tonight. Sitting on my fingers til Monday for APB. What should I absolutely get from her?

Beamodel my SO is from NOLA, raised in Lacombe/Slidell and wants to move back. I love it down there and not opposed to the idea once we get married :yep:.
 
I want to try all of the conditioners and cowash from Mielle, but serisously, the vitamin before/after pics on IG are turning me off. I know Mielle can't control how people take their comparison pics, but they can control whether or not they repost. How are you going to do a comparison when your before pic is front facing w/straight hair, and your after pic is back facing w/curly hair? Better yet, how are you just pulling down a random piece of hair in the top of your head on the left, then after you're pulling down a random piece of hair from the right? That piece of hair ain't the same. Have I been on the boards too long? These inconsistent growth check pics are killing me slowly. Girl stop. That alone is keeping me from actually ordering. I'm skraight.

Oh how cool. I wish you two well and if you two get married and move here, please let me know. Some folk don't understand the hair game and it would be refreshing to know another hair sister locally :-)

No Surprise about still waiting on ST'icals.:nono:

Glad DD likes Cocoa Rhassoul or the new: Cocoa Rose.:lick:

You should still order from Mielle. Excellent CS. Fast Shipping.

I don't do Instagram, but I understand.:lol:
 
IDareT'sHair I may go on and pull the trigga on Mielle, but only after I place my APB order. Any must-haves from APB? I'm about to comb over that thread before Monday.

In the Jakeala I ordered Watermelon and Baked Cherries scented items. I hope I like it. I *almost* ordered some KBB just for old times sake but I just couldn't do it. I've been boycotting since '09 :lol:
 
Eisani

Someone else might be able to give you a coupla' recommendations from APB (alas I cannot - haven't purchased in forever). Sorry.:look:

Jakeala's Baked Cherries & Watermelon sounds good.:lick:

I saw where Mielle is offering $10.00 off $20.00. Now that I placed my order(s) last week. :rolleyes: *sucks teef*

I haven't been out there to look for a Code or anything.
 
Eisani

I wonder what happened to Mielle's Site? If the $10.00 off $20.00 was 'real' or not?

Interesting.........:scratchch

I'm in the 'mood' to buy something. :look:

I did buy the *new* KeraVada Cream Brule. I hope I like it.
 
Feel like I haven't posted in forever. Been pretty busy w/school and work. Also, I was out of town for a bit. It's nice to have some time off.

Anyway, I used some BRB stuff yesterday. Pumpkin Puree and revisited the Cocoa Rhassoul. Love the way this goes into my hair. Still just moisturized ok. Not a repurchase. Will probably end up giving away my BRB stash. :( Verdict is still out on the Puree. I will give it till tomorrow to see if it provides any lasting moisture.

Also tried Jakeala's Flax Marshmallow Cowash/DC as a dcer. This looks so cool in its pink color. It is also really slippy and nice going on. Very easy application. It was also nice rinsing out. Wasn't too impressed as a dc though. Will use up the rest to cowash with or something.

I was looking at my stash yesterday and boy is it utterly ridiculous. I need to stop acting up on Blk Friday every year. :nono: Not good. My APB stash alone is way more than overkill. My game plan for this year is to give away the stuff that is just meh for me. Someone else might like it. So far my favs are QB, APB, SD, and Komaza just for the protein strengthener. Bekura will be my splurge because so far I like everything I've tried from the line.

I see yall mentioning Mielle, Sweet Nature by Eddie, and some other new peeps. IDK...I think I'm done with new vendors. Every time I try a new dc or something, I get disappointed because my HGs can't be beat.
 
Froreal3

I know what you mean about trying new vendors and then not living up to your HG's. I'm not in the mood to try new ones either.

I've only tried Blue Roze Rhassoul once and I liked it but I don't need to have it but it's nice for my hair though. Could it be that your hair don't like Rhassoul clay perhaps?

I tired the toasted marshmallows and gave it away. It didn't agree with my hair.

Right now by main hitters are:
APB
JessiCurl
Hairveda

Jakeala only for mixing in with other DCs. But other than that... I'm not trying much of anything else from a new vendor.
 
I want to try Mielle Organics but I'm on a no new vendors kick right now. Can't risk any foolishness with all this new growth. I'm sticking to what works and/or what's already in my stash.
 
Hi ladies! hope everyone staying warm and safe with this cold weather. We had a storm on monday, so tuesday was a day off. Another one is coming today. i'm just chilling doing craft stuff and watching tv. Nothing new with hair, i did buy hydraterm protein follicle mist the last sale but i'm on use up for real to reduce energy on having the extra fridge that i only use for hair stuff. IDareT'sHair, that mission leave in sting my scalp did you have any problems? it has alot of ingredients with acids.
 
Used:

BRB's Chai Tea today. :lick:

Thought I'd finish the jar, but I may have enough for one more Pre-Rx.:look:

If not, I'll mix it with either:
TerraForma Rx
SheaTerra Organics Pre-Rx
SSI Coconut Sorbet Pre-Rx

Unfortunately, I don't have a b/u of the Chai Hair Tea, but will repurchase either M-Day or during another BRB Sale (provided the discount is decent).

I also pulled out a 16oz Jar of: BM Bee-U-Ti-Ful DC'er. :love3:

Man! it made me remember why I love it so much.:love:

Glad I have another 16oz b/u.

I really need to stay knee-deep up in my Stash!:lol:...:nono:
