I hope it works for you too Sis. *crosses fangas*

So, are you still thinking about installing Box Braids and if you do, how long will you leave them in?

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Using my last M:C Goji Berry Silk Milk. Will hate to see it go.

 

[Beamodel]

@IDareT'sHair

Yes I'm still contemplating it. If I do them I will most likely install and keep them in for a while by refreshing them every so often.

I still have a bottle or two of this. I don't use it though. Her stuff was too greasy for my hair.

It didn't work for DS either? @Beamodel

I love it. Performance, Scent everything about it.

Some cream worked for him but it spoiled on him. I forgot what it was called though.

I can't beweave I didn't get any Jakeala? I haven't bought Jakeala in a while.

When you said DD is lovin' the Jakeala Parfait it reminded me of that. What scent is she using?

I wanted to get that Jakeala Green Tea Hair Mask, but didn't get it.

Calling a QB Stans!

If you've used Oyin's Whipped Pudding, do you (or don't you) think it's a suitable replacement for CTDG?

Hmm. I haven't used that Oyin product in years and it was early on in their business. I liked the scent at first, it was light. I had a sample size I think. Then I got the full batch and the chocolate scent was overwhelming.

All I smell is a light natural cocoa butter scent with the CTDG. I am sensitive to scents and strong ones give me a headache but that probably doesn't pertain to you.

I do not remember the texture of Whipped Pudding that much but I do recall thinking that you could tell it was a shea butter product. Just the way that shea butter acts in a whipped product. Kinda remember thinking it seemed more gel and water like. Maybe it's the AVG.

The CTDG is very light but easily buildable (just apply more if needed). I use it as a moisturizer and twisting product. It does help detangle when I apply it before twisting my hair. Not sure if the Whipped Pudding will do that.

However now you can find Oyin at some Whole Food stores as well as Target I think. Easy to find is always great. For WF, pay attention to their sales as they do 25% off ones in the Whole Body section periodically and they have an easy return policy. The last sale was BF.

ETA: Also now I know that I do not like shea butter or coconut oil on my hair. So if I bought Whipped Pudding it would be for body use.

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

@IDareT'sHair The scent is chocolate cookie. Once I use up a few more things I'll make an order from there.

In regards to the whipped pudding being a replacement for CTDG, for me it's a no. In terms of moisture they are compatible but when it comes to detangling CTDG wins hands down. I use CTDG as a detangler so that's why for me they're not the same. I am yet to find a product to beat it in that regard.

@prettyinpurple @curlyhersheygirl

Thank You Ladies.

Excellent Reviews. Great Pros & Cons.

I guess I'll still be on that QB CTDG Grind.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@curlyhersheygirl

At 1st glance, you'd swear it is/was a dead-ringer for CTDG.

That's what I get for tryna' cut corners.

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

@IDareT'sHair I thought so too at first but once I used it I noticed the differences.

@curlyhersheygirl You and @prettyinpurple made great substantial arguments why it is not/could not!

@curlyhersheygirl

What products are you waiting on Curly?

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

@IDareT'sHair Just the two honey hemps I ordered last night.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@curlyhersheygirl

We gone both start having Package Withdrawl soon.

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

@IDareT'sHair Yup lol

 

[Froreal3]

@curlyhersheygirl

So true. I'm getting side eyed by my boo about all these packages both hair related and non-hair related.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@curlyhersheygirl

What Deep Conditioners are you going to start the New Year off with Ms. Curl-Gurl?

I'm almost done with CJ Curl Rehab and will probably pull out - DB DC'ing Mask and maybe some Jakeala Sweet Honey Thang.

I may mix that with Jakeala's Dope DC'er

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@Froreal3

Yup. Package Withdrawl is real.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@curlyhersheygirl @Froreal3

Package Withdrawl is part of the disease of PJ-ism....

Even when you watch YT Videos, the PJ's in them are so excited about the Packages.

Some even go so far as to show the boxes! etc.....and how they hafta' open & smell everything....

The Addiction is real.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

If I could get through package withdrawl, I could probably beat my PJ-ism.

Ya'll always know when I'm headed for a Crash....it's when I get bad, I start asking ya'll for a Swap!

Gotta have that package!

Mixing sweet thang with dope is . I tried that when I first puchased both. Right now I'm mixing dope with Bekura's apple ?? but that's not as nice.

In January I'll be working on Ynobe, NG and SM. Not sure which particular ones just yet.

@curlyhersheygirl

Thanks for this review Ms. C!

I will definitely be trying this Combo.

You know I could never make Apple Sorghum work for me. I finally gave up on it.

 

[Froreal3]

I used SD Almond Buttercream. Smells so good...more of a strong almond scent. I love the consistency and how it goes into my hair. So far, this is a repurchase when I meander over to Silk Dreams for more RCA and VS. So we'll see how it holds up in the moisture department.

Oh and I used APB Cupuacu Avocado Moisturizer. It's new. Wow, that stuff had my hair so soft for days....I am heavy handed, so it was slightly oily, but yall know I don't mind that. Next time I'll back off it, but I love the scent (Sugar Cookie Crunch) and the consistency. I sealed with the matching butta and I couldn't keep my hands out my hair. lol It's definitely a repurchase.
