Hell ladies ad lurkers. Just got off work and I am beat. I got half of my head braided last night and I am going to twist up the rest. I had my litte sisters friend (14) braid it randomly and I am never letting her in my hair again:nono::nono: she braids wayyyy too tight. I have been spritzing my head with water the entire day to try to alleviate the pain, my boss thought it was hilarious.

I am making the twists super tiny ala Naptural85. I will finish up my CJ Smoothing tonight. FINALLY. That one bottle has taken about 4 months and I still have 3 more Smoothing Lotions alone.:lick: I will be good until BF on those.

Thanks for the suggestions. I was using a whey protein from GNC. I'm thinking I may have issues with gluten/food allergies myself.

The Robb guy I think his stuff was pricey. I'll check out the target one. My blender is broken so I picked up some Atkins shakes.

I would def use soy or almond milk :lick:

So 5/19 is the first National Natural Hair Meetup Day and Koils by Nature will be hosting an event. Right now I'm hoping someone else in the DMV will hold an event so I will have a choice but we shall see. They will be having them all over the country so here is the website. www.nnhmd.com.

I will be in ATL 3/29-4/1 to visit a friend. My first time ever. Any suggestions on places I have to go?

Thanks choctaw!

How are you going to host an event but you cant even keep your customer service issues in check.?

:rolleyes:
 
I'm biack on my no-buy, although I was itching to purchase something...I didn't. Once you purchase one thing (AfroVeda Curl Define) it's hard to stay focused.
I decided against the Pattern Pusha. I simply do not wear WashNoGo's and my hair does not curl.

I've learned a lot about my hair. Butter & Spritz works for me (because I never style my natural hair. I've come to the conclustion that I like wigs and braids, with an occasional weave style thrown in. I like the ease of getting up, getting dressed and doing very little with my hair.

I'm going to purchase more Halley's Curls Weave. I like the texture and the machine wefted tracks. I'm also going to purchase 2 Big Mama Wigs. My head is super big and regular wigs do not fit. I need another wig like the avatar. I also want to purchase more kinky twists hair. I found a shop in Bowie, MD that sells my Equal Kinky Hair.

That's it! I may get a few other products just to try them out. But it seems that anything with Shea Butter I can make myself with a few oils.

All in All, I'm good!

Now, I have to be as dedicated to weight loss as I was/am to natural hair.
 
Thinking about what Imma use Tuesday to DC with when I come home from the Beauty School?

I'll do a quick Alter Ego or Nutrine and then pull out a different Marie Dean.

Maybe either Sweet Milk or Calendua & Chamomile.:lick: Or maybe Coconut & Lime.
 
Went to the beach today.....had tons of fun. Hoping you ladies had a lovely weekend and are ready for work tomorrow.

hey yall :nono: someone on my campus was arrested today for posting on fb that he was going to go on a "shooting rampage" on campus :nono: that is so scary!

i never thought anything like that would happen here but we recently became a public ivy school so i guess things are getting more competitive *sigh*

Watching the Houston family interview...don't feel like they're being totally truthful, but it may be in the best interest of Whitney's memory and her daughter.
 
Ya'll are too funny! It was so nice here today, too! I was flyin down the Thruway with all the windows open.

I finally found my Claudie's Frappe and moisturized with it today. I missed that stuff!!!

@Brownie518

I finally smelled all my Claudie. The Frappe, the Iman (smells exceptionally wonderful), the Revitalizer & the Mango Creme Rinse.:lick:
 
Alright ladies - I'm getting caught up so here's my novel....

Smoldering under this dryer -- roller setting. I went out this evening and conditioned under a beanie. Kinda late doing my hair but I'm off tomorrow so it's all good.

As for Pura Smoothie, my hair was quite tangled while roller setting not sure if Pura is to blame. Will try it out again on roller set hair and then on air dried hair before making a final decision.

@IDareT'sHair, you are definitely good on recons.

@Ltown, you have to be careful with protein powder, don't wanna flare up the gastro issues. @Golden75, get checked out if your issues persist. Gastro issues suck.

@chebaby, I'll whip out my Kyra next and check it out before Kyra or Oyin have a sale. I'm fresh out of HH. Be nice to know which I like best.

@bajandoc86, it was tshirt and shorts kinda day in FL. These here spring breakers are worrying my nerves already. Hanging all out the car. Tailgating. Drinking/driving. Blah blah.

@robot. be safe, folk crazy!

ETA: Emailed KBN yesterday re: status and yep, well still no response.

sorry yall, it was nubian heritage, not shea moisture. the packing looked nearly identical. :ohwell: that's not cool
 
Good morning! Nothing to report, except, my pants that were a but too tight a few months, ain't as tight :look: So I'm happy. May do a little OT today, but want to get home and enjoy the weather.

I dunno bought that Mozeke Moisture Masque. It is doing me right. Hair has felt superb!!! Or it could be the growth tea combo. I'll try it out again with a different DC.

divachyk - I am mad the Pura didn't work for you :nono:. I have 1 open jar, and 3-4 back ups :look: I would put them on the exchange, but I think folks would send out a witch hunt :flyingwit:, since they don't smell much like chocolate. I think I'll use these up as my DC when I go back into Kinky twists, which will probably be in the next couple weeks.
