Gurl...Yeah, I still have Jasmine And I'm still loving it too!

Still smells, works and looks good.

I did have to pitch a few jars though (of the Hibiscus one).

For some reason, that one did not hold up as well as the Avocado & Silk?

Since I have that Fridge in my Garage, I keep thinking things aren't too bad, until I'm reminded that, it is also full of stuff.

I'm making my way through stuff tho'. But got a long way to go.

I do want some QB BF so I need to keep a look-out on that.

Other stuff, will be 'hit or miss'.

@Ltown

I do remember your mishap with Indigo.

ETA: Thanks for the Keratin Mist. I will try it during my experimenting with Blow-drying.

Do you ever Blow Dry/Flat Iron? If so, how often?

 

[flyygirlll2]

@IDareT'sHair I would prefer to do a sweep in one place for BF if I can help it... But with the way Hattache's BF discount sale is typically set up.. They usually do 25% off maybe 30% off on BF. Not surprised with them having some products OOS already.

The two BRB products I did have ( Cocoa Rhassoul & Coconut Vinegar rinse ) I tossed them out over the summer. They didn't work well with my hair. I did keep them in the fridge though so idk.

ETA- Actually scratch that. I do have the Coconut Curly Custard from BRB. I don't keep it in the fridge. I got it over the summer and it's fine.

@flyygirlll2

Yeah, I'm pretty much open to Hattache, Pampered & Twisted, Curlmart, Embrace the Natural You and Monique's Hair Boutique if any of them have a decent Sale.

I've got great purchases and deeeeeep discounts from the latter two. Their only problem is high shipping rates (oh, yeah, and limited selection/quantities).

ETA: It 'appears' Embrace has discontinued all other brands except theirs? So, no wonder I caught all those good deals.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Did a Mock QB Cart (on their site) x4 Products was $80.00 w/o any type of discount of course. I didn't even look at shipping.

Shipping made it: $91.00 (and some change).

 

[flyygirlll2]

@IDareT'sHair I'm really considering the shipping rates this time around. I definitely want to re-up on my staple products. SSI did say they would most likely have the Coco Argan Conditioner available for BF, which is what I want. Since ST'nicals has finally gotten their shipping together, I might pick up something from there BF.

 

[flyygirlll2]

@IDareT'sHair I forgot about QB. I still have some AOHC and a sample of the Coco Detangling Ghee. They are expensive. I know it's available at Sephora, so maybe there will be a sale there *wishful thinking*

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@flyygirlll2

I still have a jar of AOHC, BRBC and Abcdefg Butter (from last BF or whenever they had their last Sale. I wish I woulda' Stocked Up then.

Before the price hike and before they went to Sephora.

I want a jar of CTDG. And a back up of the above 3 items.

I use to get ALL my QB from @chebaby after she bought it (numerous times) and decided she didn't like it.

So, my nice little QB Stash was always from Che or on a Swap.

Now I hafta' buy it.

Do you ever Blow Dry/Flat Iron? If so, how often?

@IDareT'sHair , yes I have blow dry/flat iron maybe once every other month. I've recently decided to try every month to decrease my knots and change up. I usually roller set then flat iron. I have chi silk and recently brought cream of nature but haven't tried it. I used Aveda smooth this sunday to blow dry and used the tension method (holding my hair) and denman brush. I have chi flat iron and I used the ultra satin cream press(old school) to flat iron at 375.

 

[flyygirlll2]

@IDareT'sHair I do like the AOHC but I'm not sure I would say it's HG status yet. If the sale is right, then I might get something. I have the hardest time finding a great moisturizer.

 

[Ltown]

@IDareT'sHair , here is link of a girl that was on curly niki page talking about straight natural but she talks about her blow drying technique

[IDareT'sHair]

@Ltown

Thanks LT! Thanks a great idea. I will attempt a Blow-Dry at least once or twice a month.

Beautiful Avi Ms. FlyyGirlll2

@Ltown @IDareT'sHair Shelli has beautiful hair, curly or straight. I'd love to see someone with kinky 4cxyz hair like mine talk regimen, etc.

...............

 

[divachyk]

I mean, I'm just saying, @IDareT'sHair. I know the texture police is subject to come for me on a topic like this but on the real, what works for silky hair won't work for my kinks.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@divachyk

No.....I *Cackled* at 4cxyz for some reason, that Cracked Me Up!

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@divachyk

I'll try Blow-Frying once/twice a month and then treating/babying the other wash days.

I'm still on a Wed/Sat schedule.

 

[divachyk]

blow-frying I've been trying heat each wash day with attempting etiher roller sets or flexi rods. I did a roller set yesterday. @IDareT'sHair

 

[flyygirlll2]

@divachyk I feel the same way. I'm aware that you can take away from anyone's technique and apply it to your own... But with the way my hair is set up it does help to see someone with similar hair type.

@flyygirlll2

No you didn't say 'set up'

 

[flyygirlll2]

@IDareT'sHair For real though. My hair can be a beast to deal with.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@flyygirlll2

By the look of your Avi, Your Hair doesn't look like it has a care in the world.

Seriously.

 

[flyygirlll2]

@IDareT'sHair Girl, that's what beating it into submission looks like lol.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Girl, that's what beating it into submission looks like lol.

@flyygirlll2

BWAAAHHHAAAAA

 

[divachyk]

@flyygirlll2 I feel you. @IDareT'sHair, ummmm let's just say roller sets are not on my to do list no time soon. I will stick with flexi rods.

 

[Beamodel]

@flyygirlll2

Your avi is beautiful.

 

[flyygirlll2]

@Beamodel Thanks hun. That was when I actually had a great hair day, now I live in my buns/twists
