Hey @IDareT'sHair!!! Yes @chebaby was right! I have been focusing on losing weight and eating right for the past 6 months. I had to take two months off from exercising due to an injury so I have only lost 35 pounds thus far. I still have a long way to go! It's hard for me to "walk and chew gum" so I haven't been getting on as much. I'm addicted to Instagram and pinterest lately lol. I miss all of you ladies! I have been wearing weave a lot since July as well. On Friday I will be getting a bob and I will keep that style for 3 weeks and I don't plan to get weave again until next year. I have been keeping it simple with my regimen - HOT w/ Trigger (staple), detangle w/ cj smoothing lotion and hair tea, wash w/ Shea moisture moisture retention, dc with bee mine, wash and go with Shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie (staple), sealed w/ pura brazil loc oil (love it), and set w/ ufd curly magic. In between cowashes I moisturize with Anita grant creamy cafe latte (not repurchasing, nothing spectacular), and I co-cleanse twice per week with Claudies jojoba cleansing conditioner. I want to buy new stuff just because I miss getting things but I literally have years of products stored in my fridge and storage containers in my closet. I will be doing some Black Friday hoarding though lol

hey beauty:wave:
we missed you here.
35 pounds is amazing:yep: i can only dream of dropping that much weight lol.
glad to see you back.
 
hey ladies:wave:
so i got second day hair today. used my last little bit of PRE on my hair today. all out:sad:
 
Did I miss y'all's list for what you are trying to use up by the end of the year? Here is mine:
Claudies Hair Elixir (I have backups)
Hair Trigger (I need to repurchase)
CJ Smoothing Lotion (I need to repurchase)
Pura Brazil loc oil (I need more)
Anita Grant creamy cafe latte
Pura leave-ins (I love the mrumru milk)

That's all I can really see for now. I need to do better than that tho lol. I have decided to start using all of my butters/creams as pre-poos/HOT's. I won't get anywhere unless I do bcuz I surely never use them any other way lol
 
aye what hair vitamins are yall using? im looking into some but i need small pills cause i have trouble swallowing big pills. thats why them big ole horse pills from whole foods and trader joes still sitting there. i think the ones from trader joes has to be taken 3 times a day.

i dont think i made a list. i plan to use up:

SD mocha deep conditioner
cj rehab
shea moisture shea masque(as a leave in)
curls coconut sublime conditioner
ouidad play curl conditioner:lick:
jasmines a&s:cry:
sample of trigga:lick:

thats all i can think of for right now.
 
i think tomorrow im gonna do a henna treatment. and then follow up with steaming with ouidad play curl.
 
I miss doing henna. Tonight I did an hot with trigger and I added a little njoi green tea creme, spritzed with IPN tea (used up, not a repurchase), detangled w/ cj smoothing lotion, washed with Shea moisture moisture retention, and I'm currently doing a protein treatment with ssi fortifying. Debating on using the steamer but I really need to since its been at least 6 months since I last used it! I will DC with bee mine, then do a wash and go with Shea moisture smoothie and I will go ahead and try out the pattern pusha gel.
 
Hey beautyadict1913 you've been missed!

chebaby I take gummies too.

I underestimated the CJ Smoothing lotion, it's amazing. I wonder if it comes in a larger size? I haven't checked. Y'all know Oyin's Honey Hemp is my everything conditioner. Shh, I think the CJ got it beat

I think I may get that Carol's Daughter Split ender. It makes my ends really smooth. This maybe why I have not retained much length.

So no Black Friday lists?

I'm going to get something, bu not much. I want some Extensions Plus weave.

Sent from my iPad using LHCF
 
bronzebomb, its nice to know some else takes gummies too. imma pick some up tomorrow.
i havent been loving oyin honey hemp like i used to:sad: i used to stay using and loving that stuff. not any more.
curl junkie smoothing lotion is the best freaking detangling conditioner ever. sucks as a leave in for me cause its not enough moisture but i keep a bottle on hand just for detangling.

i looked at my hair today and noticed i only have a few inches of color left. ive cut at least 3 inches off this year. when the color is gone i highly doubt i will ever color my hair again.
 
Good morning!

Hi beauty, congrats on weight loss!

chebaby, i'm taking viviscal right now but will be taking some kind of liquid vitamins. I have ibs so things are slow or don't get asborbs enough.

Not doing anything with my hair. I'll do a soak all day tomorro with TeaLightful Shine and then wash late at night. Until then, it's just up in a clip. It's humid and rainy today, and then even warmer tomorrow. :nono:
