Evening Ladies! On my last overnight of this stretch...woohoo!

Did my daily spritz and leave in routine. My hair is completely shrunken at this point but I will dust the ends tomorrow. I'm going to do an extended wash day in these twists. Tea rinse, pre poo/oil soak, ghe while i do some yard work, cowash, tea rinse, dc, tea rinse,leave in, air dry and then twist out.

Its so funny how we rave about a line then 6mos-1yr later we no longer purchase from them.

Lines I've phased out are:
Mozeke
BFH
MHC
Jasmine (so sad)
Kbb

@Vonnieluvs08

Lines I've phased out are:
Mozeke
BFH
MHC Directly *but will buy from Nounou or someplace else*
Njoi CreationS *will buy during a sale*
Jasmine *only because they went out of business*
Enso Naturals *only because they went out of business*
 
Just looked at my email...no ipn notice for me. Maybe it will just show up.

So far the lines I will keep are:
SSI- whole line
Veda 1 (certain items only)
Komaza (dc only)
Darcy's (stylers and dc)

Still to be determined:
Kyra's
Ipn
Hqs
SD
 
Hey, ladies! I'm here on my last night of work for the week. Can't wait to get out of here. I might do a touch up tomorrow. We'll see, though.
Why is that when you know you are getting a touch up and can't scratch that you have to fight to keep your fingers from tearing that scalp up? :ohwell:
 
mkd - Hey, girl!! I keep missing you!!!

:look: Have you tried SD Wheat Germ or Destination Hydration? :lick:
 
bajandoc86 sure I'll take it off you ... thanks !!! and you can try some of my HQS (when Momz gets back) or purabody chocolate smoothie
 
IDareT'sHair, I am just lounging around. I lurk everyday but I havent been buying much, just cj from ave you. Once it cools off,I think I am going back to roller sets.

Vonnieluvs08, how are you? Thank you for the kind words. And yes, I am definAtely in a better mood:grin:
 
@mkd :wave:
hey girl
im right along with you. once it cools down i think imma straighten. i said i would not straighten until next year but im tired of constantly conditioning and washing and going. i want a style that i can leave for a while.
which is why i want braids but ive heard stories of people braids being too tight and having headaches or hair falling out:nono:
 
mkd Yeah, I'm glad you're liking CJ. It's a geat line.:lick:

It sounds like your Hair is responding well to it. Roller sets sound good too.:grin:

I hope we can get a Groupon or somethin'.:look:

chebaby The Fall would be a nice time for you to skraiten.:yep:

PREACH GIRL; GONE HEAD AND PREACH!
 
Used HV hydra silica tonight for the first time. I like it but not sure how to rate it against Oyin J&B. HV provided great slip but think Oyin provides a tad bit more than HV. I'll see how moisturizing my hair feels tomorrow to determine which gives the most moisture.

ETA: Sorry I missed yall tonight. The dern a/c stopped working and had to call the repair guy out. Thankfully it was an easy fix and they didn't charge us. It's too hot for all that foolishness. :look:

mkd -I'm doing ok, honestly. Can't wait to vacay next week. Glad to hear things are better. Life definitely puts you through some weird and frustrating seasons.

Brownie518 - thought about some Shi-Naturals but I don't like not being able to see pictures of the products before I buy them. It's my lil hair pet peeve. That and subpar webpages.
 
Hey Lovely Ladies!

My IPN came today. Rubbing on Root Food II. This will not be a repurchase. Too many bits & pieces of herbs-n-spices.
 
My take on Oyin J&B vs. HV Hydra Silica -- hope this isn't old news to you all....

Oyin - great moisture / great slip
HV - good moisture / good strength / good slip

Oyin makes my hair feel buttery soft -- so soft that I was afraid to touch it because it kinda felt like it would just snap. Not mushy, but buttery soft. <--- feels great saying that because that's rare for me.

HV gave some moisture but it made my hair feel moisturized & strong so in turn, it wasn't butter soft.

Both Oyin & HV allowed me to daily, dry comb without breakage but Oyin definitely has the better slip & moisture.

hmmmm im not sure. i would say giovanni direct leave in or giovanni smooth as silk conditioner but trader joes is creamier. it makes my hair softer than any other leave in including curl junkie honey butter.


today i used oyin HH conditioner as a leave in and while my hair feels and looks just ok i think i wont be using it as a leave in again. its good as a co wash but isnt as good as a leave in for me. i know a bunch of people on youtube love it as a leave in though. i think the difference is i dont use leave in, styler, sealer. i only use a leave in so i need my leave ins to moisturize and style for me and oyin HH is too light to do that.
trader joes is thick and semi heavy.
