Tonight I used HQS Cocoa Cleanimg conditioner. It's still ok to me. I have another bottle but after I use them or give away, I doubt I'll repurchase (keep in mind, I'm a shampoo'er, instead of a co cleaner - but I do love APB Cleansing whip) I think HQS Cocoa is lacking slip. My curls get all tangled up and what not.

I also used Blue Rose beauty Manuka Honey conditioner (for the first time). I've been having it in my stash for a while, and I think I'm gonna give it away. Again, no slip. My curls need slip.

Surprising I used bobeam to DC with tonight. The butter cream one. It's been in my stash for a while but no slip either and it left particles in my hair. I prefer the Cocoa one that bobeam sells occasionally.

With all this being said, my hair was soft and my curls were curly/fluffy after air drying my hair. But I wish I would have had a great wash day. It was just meh...

re:
Komaza - is the Jojoba Hemp (Jar) like a Pomade/Grease? How many oz's is it? When it was in a bottle it was 4oz's.

I got the Moku Butter on a swap and remember liking it? Have you tried? It was 8oz's.

Tryna find a suitable replacement for Komaza Scalp Butter.

It's 4 ounces. Texture is a soft grease, not stiff at all. I can't wait until it cools off around here so I can grab a few jars of it :infatuated:

Never tried the Moku Butter. Think it has mango butter in it which is a no for me.
 
Hey y'all. Just popping in to say hi.

Haven't been taking care of my hair like I should in the last few weeks because there's been so much going on. My mane is DRY, so since I am off tomorrow I have decided to start showing it some love tonight.

Anywhoos. I hope you ladies are doing well. *hugs*

P.S. Used up 1 16ox APB Ginger Root Growth Oil (no backups *sobs*) and 1 4oz HTN Growth Oil.
I immediately went to etsy and reupped on APB and copped a Ginger Root Growth Lotion as well.
 
So a young lady here in the Bahamas is now selling all kinds of organic soaps for hair and skin.

I already know I'm in trouble because she has aloe vera soap, moringa and sour sop soap, bentonite clay and charcoal soap, papaya and cucumber with lime soap and a couple others that caught my attention. I will definitely be trying the ones I mentioned here.

I think I'll find out if she can make a rhassoul clay soap as well. I don't care for shampoo bars for my hair but I will definitely be okay with the clay-type soap bars.
 
Okay, I think I'm done ordering this handmade stuff. The last two Silky Hair oils I received from Jakeala are very loose in consistency and not grease/smooth/pomade like the first one I got. I would contact her, but I know I'll get the same each batch is made differently, blah blah blah. They have been sitting in a cool spot for days now and are still runny.

I will use them as the loose oils that they are but I will not be repurchasing anything handmade except for soap anymore because I'm tired of consistency issues.

Side note: I've decided to email her and I'll probably send her a picture or two.

I know what you mean. Remember how much I "use" to love Sweet Honey hair Thang? I received two that were like sugar particles when I received them in the mail.

Both times, she told me to put them in the Fridge. They both stayed crystallized. I never replied back to her to tell her that refrigeration did not help.

So I pretty much stopped buying that. I never had that problem or anything close to, with Bekura YAM.

I think Kindred Butters might have a 'nice' dupe I can't wait to try it.
 
Morning everyone!

I did a quick cowash last night because my hair was not having my sink WnG anymore. Good thing I did too because they was some mighty tangling starting to happen. I've put my hair in giant twists that I'm going to pin up for now.

Finally used up a bottle of the SSI Sugar Peach Super Moist Conditioner. I like it but since the Apple Nectar Conditioner is back and I like it more (more softness and slip) I'll be purchasing that one from now on.
 
I think I remember you talking about that @IDareT'sHair . I may try the Kindred Butters one but I'm just going to use what I have and stay with my hair greases.

I did send her a message and included pictures of all three oils I've purchased. I'm curious to see what her response is.

And she can definitely CAN the stick it in the fridge response because I didn't have to do that with the last one and what's going to happen once it's at room temperature again? Same ole runny stuff lol
 
@NaturallyATLPCH
Yeah both times I couldn't figure out what "sticking it in the Fridge" was gone do, since it was a dried out mess?:angry2:

I had to let it go from here until someone comes up with a suitable "Dupe". Mission:Condition had one (Ha.ir Candy), but the line was discontinued. :cry3:

Hopefully, Kindred Butters is a good "Dupe" for it. If not, I'll grab another jar of YAM (if/when I can get it on the cheap).:look:
