Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge pt.5

Been moisturizing with Kyra's Mango and enjoying it. The 40% tempted me to pull out my Pura Sapote Lotion. I applied it to dry hair as my daily moisturizer. Sealed with a blend of wheat germ, hemp and evoo. My hair feels good.

@divachyk

Nice Schedule.

I need to be looking for ideas from you & @Brownie518 (instead of Natcha-Head's).

I know Nix08 does her Relaxed Hair Daily.

I'll have to give 3x a week some thought. It might not be too bad, but awfully time consuming.

IDareT'sHair - I tried doing my hair several times a week but it was time consuming and it wasn't good for my hair mainly because it was too much manipulation.

I retained more in 2010 with doing my hair 1x weekly than 2011 when I increased it to 2x weekly. I've adopted a hybrid approach for 2012 with allowing my ng to determine the frequency be it 1x or 2x weekly.

How often are you doing your hair right now? I'd be bald if I did my hair every day like Nix08. Plus, I don't have the patience for alladat.

Good morning!

Now hold up IDareT'sHair, i know you ain't talkin about us natural

I think divachyk, is right on retaining by doing less. Growth varies with everyone of course. When i was relax that once a week worked because i didn't use alot of products. Being natural, more frizz, dryer and because i'm wearing more hair styles curly, bun, straight i find doing my hair twice a week reduce the frizz and allow me the flexibility. I workout out everyday and head sweat like stupid crazy so thats another reason i'm doing my hair twice.

No Buy is broken Just hit paynah on the HQ . I got the 3 pc moisture pack (greaseless moisture & 5 Day Butter), Lime Oil Butter , repair mask, deep conditioner. 5 products in total, for $53 including shippind and everything is 8oz or better. How could I pass this up?

I wanted the gel and Coco Lime Cleanser, but if I like these I can get those another time.

Hey Ladies.

Massaging in Mega-Tek & Strong Roots Nourishing Pomade (Etsy/Njoi).

 

[chebaby]

chello ladies
so last night i ordered that new treatment from kbb. i hope it gets here soon cause shes going to the atlanta hair show this weekend so she better ship my stuff before she leaves.

also last night i misted my hair with aloe juice and moisturized my ends with CR moisture butter. my bun feels crunchy. i know its not the butter cause i used the butter before with n o problems so i can only assume its the aloe juice.

so tonight i will mist with greg juice and remoisturize with CR butter. and continue to bun.
ill cleanse with deva no poo tomorrow night and condition with something and then bun or wash and go.

 

[divachyk]

It's taking all that I have in me to do my hair but I'm about to go do something to this hea' head of mine. BBL to chat.

Hi Ms. Che-Lady!

I've been tryna' scope out some Old Mega-Tek, since they changed the Bottles & listed the ingredients differently (although the Manufacturer swears it's the same) yeah. yeah. yeah.

I should do like *Fab* and buy a Gallon.

I'm doing my Hair tomorrow too.

I think I'll
PrePoo with my Homemade Coffee Creme/Oil Stuff (under plastic cap)
Conditioner Cleanse with Naturelle Grow Herbal Cleanser
Steam with Marie Dean's Calendua & Chammomile DC'er over Coffee
Rinse
Do a ACV Rinse and an Herbal Tea Rinse
Dry under dryer

I was gone use MopTop, but I've been gettin' down with the MT lately, so I better use something Moisturizing instead of Protein. I thought about maybe even KBB. I have a few Jars of that.

I'm excited about you tryin' the new Treatment. Kern 'nem know they got you Che.

 

[divachyk]

Okay so tonight I've ---
-shampooed with CON Argan
-protein treated with Ion Effective Care
-wet detangled with V05 MM
-currently DCing (with steam) with Enso Naturals Cacao Curl Recovery Deep Conditioning Treatment. This is my first time using this. Been in my stash for a while but never used it. Really like the thickness and how it smoothed into my hair. I hope I like this stuff because I have two big jars of it.
-ETA: will do a ponytail rollerset when I wash the DC out

@Shay72

Lemme know what you think about Vitacost price(s) on that Agave Nectar.

My Grocer had it like $6.99 for like 8 ounces or something like that.

I will be going to the store this weekend so I will let you know.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

divachyk

I still have a 16 ounce Jar of the Enso Cacao Deep Recovery. And 2 8 ounce Jars of the *Seabuckthorn DC'er = 16 ounces. (Haven't tried the Sea Buckthorn yet).

IMO the Cacao DR It's the Bees Knees for Steaming. Nice & thick and rinses clean.

*pours out some conditioner for EN*

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Shay72

I got a response from Vitacost. They said they get Shipments from various Suppliers and my Fenugreek and Horsetail should be coming in another Shipment.

I shoulda' asked, if I will be charged $4.99 per shipment. Lemme go do that right now.....

I want to order that Agave Nectar from them, but so far, I'm leery of how they operate.

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

Hey ladies. I used the last of my QB CTDG today; will restock when the site re-opens.

divachyk and IDareT'sHair Don't remind me about Enso

 

[Ltown]

Hey ladies!

I can't believe no one buying pura at 40%, i'm overstock.com i made ayurveda tea mix will use that as a spray. I use up hv cocasta finally, i will use vatika since its warmer.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Ltown

Funny thing you should mention that: I was just out in my Stash.

I have like 2 Pura Oils, 3 Murumuru Lotions and a Coupla' Chocolate Smoothies.erplexed

I don't need/want no more Pura (right nah).

OT: I kept saying I wanted more SSI Avocado *don't need any of that either*

If they had a Sale, I'd probably get 2 16 ounce Okra's.....OR Nothin'.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

curlyhersheygirl

So, Curly, you can wait to replace your CTDG until they re-open?

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

IDareT'sHair I sure can I have so many MD DC's to start testing so it's no biggie.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

curlyhersheygirl

I'm sure you do Ms. Curly!

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Recap on the Pura Oils. It's actually 3

2 Brazil Loc
1 Sapote

 

[Golden75]

Yeah don't need no Pura. I think I have 3 DC's, 2 MM, 2 SL, 2 BL. I'm good.

I'm good on errythang actually. I need to get out these kinkies so I can start diggin in da stash.

Gotta check my tub, it's draining slow. Waiting for the water to go down so I can put some stuff down the drain, then I'm going to lala land!

Oh dayum, forgot about 2-3 sapote oils def don't need no Pura. That's the only product I have back ups for

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

Golden75 How many packs did you use?

 

[Brownie518]

Hey, ya'll
I'm here at work, last night for the week. Our servers are down worldwide so it is UGLY in here.
Anyway, my Claudie's came the other day. She's such a sweetie, always does me right!! I need some sales, I'm ready to get down...

 

[Brownie518]

Hey ladies!

Ltown - I was thinking the same thing. That 40%...I wish it was 40% for Hairveda or SSI or Shi Naturals or Claudie or b.a.s.k.

 

[Golden75]

Golden75 How many packs did you use?

curlyhersheygirl - I cut my packs in 1/2, so I would say maybe 2 & possibly a lil from a 3rd.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I need some sales, I'm ready to get down...

That 40%...I wish it was 40% for Hairveda or SSI or Shi Naturals or Claudie or b.a.s.k.

Brownie518

Gurl...You Stay Ready to Get Down with the Get Down.

For me it would be 40% for: Claudie, Darcy's, Kyra, SSI, TRIGGA!!!!!!!!

 

[Golden75]

You ain't Neva lied Brownie518 - or Darcy's, CJ, Oyin. Something I need right now. I guess we all overloaded on Pura. They do have good sales . Ain't too many throwing her type of discounts & deals.

Mess around I might get some Pura on GP
