Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge pt.5

Hi Ladies! @rileypak Thank you for the info.

I've been under the weather lately but I managed to wash my hair today because I want to color my hair Thursday, so I don't want any build up. @MileHighDiva I ended up using Njoy's Purifying Cowash. It doesn't provide much slip but it upon rinsing, my hair felt soft and clean without feeling stripped. I like the fact that it has green and roobios tea in it. All in all, I would repurchase it if it there was a good sale.

On an unrelated note, I've been shedding like a dog. I mean balls of hair type shedding. If my hair wasn't as thick as it is I would think I'm going bald.
 
@flyygirlll2, I hope you feel better!:getwell:

Thank you for the review on the Njoy Purifying cleanser! Hopefully, she has a decent sale for MLK, BHM, or VD. Then I can email her my order to get 1st class shipping.
:rolleyes:

I've been shedding a lot, too. Next wash day, I'm going to use the HV Methi Set. If that doesn't help, I'll order Nutrine or the Alter Ego Garlic Masque.

I might take a month off from taking the Beautifully Bamboo. I'm curious if the MSM is making me shed.
 
@MileHighDiva Thank you and you're welcome. Her shipping is ridiculous :rolleyes: I received a shipping notification for the pomade I ordered thankfully.

Yeah, this shedding is pretty bad. I started taking my Vitamin D supplement again to see if that with slow it down. I have those vitamins too. I didn't know if MSN can cause that. I just heard that it can cause changes in your cycle.
 
@MileHighDiva I've never taken those but hopefully you are able to find the culprit. I also wanted to mention that the Njoy's Purifying Cowash does have MSM in it, even thought it's not high on the list. Given that I bought it a while ago, I'm not sure if she has changed the formula or if it's still the same.
 
From ulta:

Redken cream cleanser (first time using it)
Kenra Moisture Conditioner

The have that liter sale and kenra is a staple. I will see if my hair still likes it after I uninstall.

Anyone try the sheamoisture dye? I may need something more permanent than my semi color.
 
@divachyk & @MileHighDiva Great now we can compare notes. What brands did y'all get? I just purchased the one recommended by DH's coworker because he was raving about it and also stated it was certified grade A by some Australian agency or something like that.
Since we'll be comparing notes I'll list my starting info.
I'm applying a mix ( 3/4oz jojoba, 3/4 oz JBCO, 1/2 oz emu) to my scalp 3x weekly via a dropper and massaging with my invigorator.
I don't have an issue with growth but my crown has always been less dense than the rest of my head so I'll look there for signs of improvement.
April 4th will mark 3 months of application so I'll report results then.
 
@curlyhersheygirl @MileHighDiva I had some eBay bonus bucks and purchased from a vendor that I found on Amazon and eBay. Seeing them on Amazon gave me courage to by from them on eBay - H&B Oils. I have a hair growth recipe that I might use or may just use emu straight. More to come after I receive it. ETA: the recipe is just a bunch of oils and it hasn't worked but it's a way to make emu last.
 
@divachyk @curlyhersheygirl I bought mine from this vendor, during a 20%off promotion. I'm trying to support BOB's. I'll be using it straight, no cutting with other oils. Three times a week. I going to piggy back on curlyhersheygirl and use my scalp massagers. I want to increase my hair density. We'll see if it wakes up my sleeping hair follicles. These are the claims made about emu oil:
Emu oil is packed with lots of good stuff that's great for your hair and skin. It contains vitamin A which is needed for skin repair. It wakes up 80% of sleeping hair follicles. It's a highly penetrating oil with the ability to penetrate the stratum corneum barrier of the skin, this is due to the high levels of oleic acid, which is a fatty acid that aids in cell regeneration. It has vitamin E which is a anti-oxidant that helps in healing skin. Omega 3, 6 and 9 essential fatty acids can also be found in Emu oil and it has very high anti bacterial and anti inflammatory properties. It has emulsifying properties, making this oil at great moisturizer, which helps with dry skin and skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. It also stimulates hair growth, thickens the hair and is an excellent hair conditioner.

Used Alikay Naturals Honey & Sage again tonight (with Steam).

I guess it's growing on me a little bit but probably not enough to repurchase unless there was a really good Sale. I am glad I have a back up of it tho'.

I used Honey Handmades Cleansing Conditioner (Buttermilk & Spiked Rum).

It is very watery/runny. I practically used the whole bottle. This definitely is not a repurchase unless I get it for $6-7 dollars (with Free Shipping) like I did this time.
