Hey ladies and lurkers.

I was going to cowash last night with Tresemme Naturals and then retwist but my sister wanted to braid my hair so I let her. I havent used anything up.
 
I'm gonna be good and not buy any hemp seed butter (at least for right now). I looked in my linen closet and found a 1lb jar of avocado butter that I need to use up first.....so I rubbed some on my twists.

*sigh* one day at a time.
 
I washed my hair today and conditioned with AOHSR. I did box braids and will be rocking them under my wig. It's my birthday tomorrow so me and hubby will be going out somewhere nice. Can't wait.

Not trying to :poke: or anything, but I love hemp seed butter, avocado butter, macadamia butter and wheat germ oil mixed together. IJS :lick:
 
Okay, I have a couple things to say :lol:

First of all, we had dinner at the boo's mom's house with some friends. I'd spritzed my hair w/a bit of water and aloe vera juice and put my old twist out in four braids. I had taken it down and fluffed a bit by the time one of our friends came. He commented on how much hair I had and asked if I wet it everyday, etc (his 2 sisters, ma have a lot of hair) I said no and told him I generally leave it alone. He told me to never cut it. Boo chooses this time to express his preference that I wear my hair straight. When I tried telling him y I dont straighten often, he says he knows about heat damage etc, he's a licensed barber *eye roll* I get tired of folks always having something to say about hair that doesn't grow from their head.

Secondly, I was in Sally Beauty this morning and looked at the Ion straightening system. The ingredients didnt look bad and its $20 for 12 oz. I *might* try it. It says it lasts 6-8 washes and you dont have to flat iron at 450 (I dont anyway). I took a pic of the ingredient list.

ETA: Pro price is $14.99, the kit w/the poo is $22.99. I may try it.

hi ladies
my braid out is not as soft as it usually is with the shea rinse. im surprised because the nourishing is a great conditioner but i guess not a great leave in. oh well, next week its back to shea rinse. my hair is a little frizzy too so maybe ill keep it like this until wednesday and then co wash and braid with shea rinse.

im so over being a pj too. its not as fun as it used to be. i mean the shopping is still fun but after i get everything and im sitting around looking at all this stuff im like :ohwell:
i think im going to stick with oyin, shea and oil mixes and jasmines for as long as she stays open :look: if she closes ill just buy the bases.
i wont even stock up on kbb anymore either. like bronze said, everyone keeps changing ingredients and prices and its annoying.
i know that i can count on oyin and bases lol.
 
Hey, ya'll...just sitting around, reading while it rains like it won't ever stop. I like it, though.

I don't think I'm over being a PJ at this point.
 
Hey all I'm gonna cowash my hair in a bit and maybe do large braids for a braid out.
I used up a 16oz banana brulee, 8oz califia pudding and 8oz DB curling gellie.
The banana brulee is a staple so I have backups but I'm not repurchasing the gels.

thanx for the samples T.
i got my jasmines today too but didnt have time to look at anything.

i wonder if black currant vanilla is the same as cd black vanilla? if so then i know it smells yummy.:lick:
i dont remember what scents i have that came today. i know i got the a&s in hello sugar and a shea rinse in berries and cream but i dont remember anything else.

i might put my braid out in a bun tomorrow if it doesnt hold up well. but i refuse to do it over until wednesday lol.
