Hey ladies, I fianally finished my twist took almost 2hrs. Ive been experimenting with different combinations of moisturizers and stylers to see what gives me the best results and less frizz after day3. Today I used Oyin hair dew, IC fantasia gel and topped it off with CJ CIAB. So far so good, I forgot how much I loved the hair dew, but this bottle is almost gone and it will probably be a re-purchase somewhere down the line.

@13StepsAhead thank u! I just checked out ur album and tell me WHY I thought that was u in ur avi lmaaooo! I was like this older lady gets her haul on lol! But I tried Jessicurl WDT while I was transitioning and it didnt do much for me. I didnt have any ill-effects but I compare everything to Sitrinillah! I may as well stop buying other DC's but thats my fave products....I used to love leave-ins but so many of those have not lived up to my expectations!

:lachen::lachen:@ the bolded. That's my nana's hair; I took that pic when I 1st started my hair journey as inspiration. I wish I could keep my reggie as simple as she does (wash, condition, carefree curl, olive oil and buns)

Hey ladies...I'm just lounging catching up on True Blood. Got the AC bumpin! I plan to do my hair in a few.
T, the elixir you sealed with...does it have sulfur in it?

Nothing to report; just chilling this weekend. Thinking of attempting self-trimming after doing my hair tomorrow. Anyone have good suggestions or tutorials? Think Feye's method seem to be the most popular.

The dh loved my Pink Sugar smelling hair. :yep:

ive only been taking it for about 3 days so the only thing ive noticed is that it does clean you out :look::lol: i havent noticed any energy yet but i hope it kicks in.
 
so i have the hibiscus conditioner in now. i put it on dry hair and it goes on really slick and easy. when i rinse i will cleanse with daily fix and condition and detangle with cj argan olive conditioner. and then braid in my two braids with dew and bsp on the ends.
 
just got an email from HV and the will be having a back to school sale in mid august. No percentage reported but the entire stock will be on sale. I sure hope the greenies are still around.

Did ya'll notice Enso is selling bulk/salon sizes now?

Ordered from Curly Kinks. I love the owner's youtube channel. I know chebaby does too. I got samples of the coil jam, curl refresh, and the satin roots leave in/detangler. I have high hopes for the detangler because it has slippery elm, btms, and marshmallow root in it :yep:.

I love those ingredients! :lick:

So lately I've used up Claudie's Deep Moisturizing 16oz, HTN Moisture Boost conditioner, and right now I'm sitting here in the last of my jar of Oh So Sexy Avocado & Silk.
 
Shay72, yea i like her YT channel but i dont think ill be purchasing her products. im more inclined to buy butters and creams than gels.

so i rinsed out the hibiscus conditioner(after what? 4-6 hours, cant remember) then cleansed with daily fix and condition and detangled with cj argan and olive conditioner. my hair is so soft and fluff. i moisturized with HV whipped ends hydration and now im drying in a towel.
the hibiscus is nice. it relly softened my hair. i dont think i would co wash with it, its so thick that for me it would be strickly for deep conditioning. the only thick conditioner i use for co washing is darcys pumpkin conditioner(which i got in the mail today:lick:).

i finished my argan and olive and wont repurchase anytime soon.
 
Today I moisturized the dh's hair with Blue Malva and sealed with Vatika Frosting. I massaged his scalp. :grin: He loves visiting Diva's salon. Mama takes great care of her baby. :yep:
 
Yesterday my mum and sis helped style my hair. My sis did twists in the back and my mum cornrowed the front with the ends twisted. This is the first time I will be rocking a natural hair style since wearing it when it was a boy cut after my twa
 
Mernin' D's:grin:

Getting ready to Steam with Jasmines A&S in Honey Pear

Cowashed with "We Love Green"

Will M&S with Claudie Quinoa and Hairveda's Avosoya Oil.

*possibly won't use up anything" Next wash day may finish up "We Love Green" have backups.
 
Well I've finally decided to give up on sticking to just a few product lines. It ain't happening. I get bored easily and I want what I want when I want it. My compromise is I will only buy things on sale and if not on sale only samples when I want to try something new. That means for some items I will completely run out of them. That is okay. I purposely buy products that do the same thing for me. For example Komaza's Shea Butter Lotion, Oyin's Hair Dew, Darcy's Botanicals Coconut & Lemongrass Transitioning Cream and Hairveda's Whipped Ends Hydration do the exact same thing for my hair. I also buy products that I use for several different purposes. For example the DB's Transitioning Cream can now be used as a moisturizer and as a detangler.

Right now I am interested in trying Curl Junkie and Alaffia products.

Shay72 So, I read your Review in the Cowash Challenge Thread about "We Love Green."

Affalia gets alot of 'mixed' reviews. Many not so good. Did you ever look at Camille Rose? I can't wait to whip them out.

My Claudie will ship tomorrow. YAY!:grin:
 
Afternoon Divas :wave: so I let my mom use one of my Jasmine's Hibiscus DCers and she said it gave her a burning/tingling sensation :perplexed: this is on of my relatively newer jars so I'm going to test it out next wash day to see if I have the same reaction. I have not experienced this with the other jars I have, so I hope she didn't mess up with the formulas because I have quite a few to get through.

ETA: if I have the same reaction I will e-mail her to see what gives.

@IDareT'sHair it was coconut cream smoothie. This is kind of sad becausee if I get the same reaction I will probably start searching for another staple DCer :nono:

13StepsAhead WOW! Interesting. Not sure if I have that one. Keep me posted.

I steamed today with Avocado & Silk in Honey Pear and was drooling at the Love I have for Jasmines Conditioner(s) and Scents. So, that is too bad.

I will rotate Honey Pear & Wild Strawberry. *Part of my Personal Summer Use Up Line Up* I also pulled Lemon Sugar in too and another "Summer Scent". I hope I don't have any problem with the Lemon.

I've never had any negative reactions thus far from any of her products. I hated that it happened to me with HTN DC'er.:sad:

Cause you know I STANS for HTN, but couldn't use that one. *le sigh*
 
13StepsAhead I got the e-mail on HV's August "Back To School" Sale. I think I'll get about 4/5 Amala Cream Rinses and maybe some more Cocosta. :ohwell:

I wonder if VF will be out then? If so, I'll pick up 1 or 2 of those.:look:

I'm set on HV.:grin: I have about 5 Moist 24/7 and about the same number of Acai's & MoistPROs.

And I've lost count of My Baby Daddy Sitrinillah.:lol:
 
IDareT'sHair I will definietly keep you posted. I hope it was just a bad batch, but that's still kind of scary; I don't want to worry about my DCer burning me especially since it's supposed to be all natural.
