[IDareT'sHair]

My WEN Spritz Came today.

It'll be a while before I try them out tho'. Perhaps not until Fall.

Imma stick to this Enso & finish up Komaza Vitamin Reign. And I have an Njoi Herbal Tea Spritz I'll use before using the WEN.

[chebaby]

i really want koils by nature shea aloe leave in, its $20 for 12oz just like curl junkie and ive heard good things about it.

 

[chebaby]

i just ordered the coils by nature shea aloe leave in
knowing sage, i should have it by Wednesday lol.

 

[Zaz]

lol ikr!

But I figure that allot of CJ stuff is like 18-22 bucks for 12 ounces

kbb sweet ambrosia is like 16 bucks and like 6.7 ounces now

qb's stuff is like 16 bucks for 8 ounces

so CJ is kind of comparable due to the extra 50 percent of product

I like to keep things around $1.50 per oz and under $2 per oz, unless I REALLY love it but then I'll try to get it during sales only.

Zaz

Yeah.....I keep forgetting you have a 31 item cut-off........

That cut off kills me sometimes, it's forcing me to use up a couple of things before I'm allowed to buy samples of Komaza, Beemine or DevaCurl. I love me some samples, just $25 will get me a nice lil selection to scratch my PJ itch

[Shay72]

komaza shea lotion is fast becoming a staple. at first i liked it but decided not to repurchase because i have dew and only need one lotion. but this lotion is the bomb diggidy

This is a staple for me.

I love Jasmine's Brown sugar Buttercream scent, it reminds me of Oyins Burnt Sugar Pomeade.

This is my new favorite Jasmine scent.

At the training tonight.....I am so sick of summer trainings ....one of the staff had obviously just put twists in bc she came to the training with the metal clips still in her hair .

 

[divachyk]

HI LADIES!

Miss you all dearly. I'm on business travel and I can't seem to make time to surf LHCF like I want. I have been on travel for a week, have two more weeks to go. I can't wait until I'm home, in my bed, out of hotels and able to properly care for my hair. My longest business travel experience was five weeks so I guess I should be thankful this time around is only three. My complaints is not why I write....

I know that 4th of July is nearing, will someone PLEASE PLEASE drop me a PM should HairVeda have a sale. PMs come direct to my phone so even if I'm not logging on frequently, I would still remain informed.

(IDareT'sHair, I'm LOVING the SitriNillah. Kenra has been collecting dust lately).

 

[Priss Pot]

Are we even participating in the No Buy anymore? Charz lol, I think that's kinda gone out the window, now. But hey, at least everyone stayed on track for the 1st leg!

Today I did a braidout using Qhemet CTDG and Eco Styler gel. I think I'm gonna like this combo.

All of this talk I'm seeing about Curl Junkie...I'm still going to get around to trying the Repair Me one day.

 

[hannan]

Hey yall

I should be getting my Jasmine's stuff from the po tomorrow finally.

I have the urge to haul but I don't know what for.

I agree between that and the banana buttercream I'm in love.

 

[bronzebomb]

just tip-toed out and back in to look at the Curl Junkie products. Anyone have 4B hair? I don't need any Curl Enhancing products.... wait! I can't do this! I'm not pressing "submit this order until Black Friday"

 

[Eisani]

Has anyone tried that Enso Milk & Honey Hydrating Buttercream? It sounds really good.

I like it a lot!

why am I just seeing this! I don't have issues.

A natural friend said, "I'm coming over your house so you can do my hair with some of your products" *sideeye* I have never invited her over since that comment! Lawd I'm selfish...what's wrong with me.

 

[Eisani]

I *NEED* to buy something! I just can't make up my mind. Lemme go see what Sage has going on.

I'm not buying anything for curl enhancement, I just want some stuff to weigh down my hair and that I can cowash with, cuz after I recover from this last leg operation, imma build myself up to run/cycle/swim 5-7 miles a day, plus weight train 3 times a week.

When my hair is weighed down I get significantly more hang time.

YES!! This is what I'm looking for as well. Have you tried any of the Calfia products from Komaza? In the description of the styling pudding, it says it weighs hair for longer hanging curls. Hang time is what makes me consider going back to texlaxing, or at least doing BKT again. I don't mind shrinkage, but sometimes I want to show more length.

The products I tried made my hair feel horrible, most likely from that derivative of palm oil

I think my hair loves Komaza. Their line has coconut oil and my hair sucks this stuff up! That's why I think my hair HV Sitrinillah so much as well.

Your hair curls naturally, right? Mine does not. I have to manipulate the hair for definition. I've tried gels and I cannot do a wash and go. Twisting is my only option. I'm hoping someone with 4B hair can give me a heads up on CJ products. MiraCurl, KCCC, Eco Styler did not do anything for my hair.

Let us know how the cleansers work. I've started the gym routine as well, I'd like something to keep my hair clean and moisturized if I decide to was more frequently.

 

[13StepsAhead]

Posted on HV Facebook page asking about the new conditioner and it will be out on the 25th. I guess its better than the 30th

 

[natura87]

If I didn't have kids I would be a Hauling fool. It would b insane.

I used to "haul". Now I am just sitting back trying to use it all.

I think I may be the only one holding on.

 

[natura87]

I was in Sally's yesterday on break (probably not the smartest thing for a PJ to be doing) and I saw the Proclaim Argan Oil Masque on sale Buy 2 get one free. So I technically could have gotten 3 16oz masques for 15 bucks. The ingredients didnt look too bad.


I walked way.

I'm a 4a/b if it helps. I have coils more than anything else.

I'm not really into hair typing, but if I had to guess I would say I'm mostly 4a with some 4b. I have distinctive curl pattern in the shower, but once my hair dries, there's nothing. If I use a curl definer I have some "curl" definition, but my hair is SUPER thick so it takes a lot and I never have the patience to do it right. My hair loves the smoothing lotion, CIAB, and the honey butta. I have the Aloe fix, I'm still trying to figure out how to do wash-n-gos, so the verdict is still out on that.

 

[Zaz]

Last night instead of pineappling I did a flat twist n curl on my leftover wash n go using Oyin's Shine & define on the left side and Oyin's Whipped pudding on the right side. I think the Shine & define side looks a little better but the Whipped pudding side feels softer.

They (the oyin people) tweeted that the best twistouts come from using both together but I hate using more than one styling product at the same time
