Me too. I will be stalking that site until the black headbands are back in stock.


Never :lachen:. J/K. IDK. I feel pressured :look:.

I got some more goodies to try this week. My Afroveda butter sampler came and so did my cocoa detangling ghee and honey bush tea soft gel from Qhemet. Mala also sent me her shampoo bar. The only other stuff I have on the way is the Claudie's. Thank goodness because BF will be here before I know it and I have some decisions to make.

Do you have a good idea of some of the lines you want to get yet. I may come up missing on black friday. I don't think i can handle it.:look:

hi ladies
heres the thing about my scalp. as far as i know i have never suffered from scalp issues, no dandruff or anything. but then again i never washed my hair, i always went to salons for that. anyway my dad has very bad scalp issues. he gets flacks and red patches that we thinK is psoriasis(sp?). when i did the bc my cousin on my dads side did it too. but not to go natural. her doctor told her she had to because she had bad patches of flakes all over her scalp and she needed to wash her hair like every 2 days. now i noticed flakes like a month ago but i didnt know if it was like my dad/cousin or if it was product build up because at the time i was co washing almost daily. so i just put coconut oil/lisa hair elixer on my scalp and it went away. also i had so look at it(a month ago) and he said it was only in the front. there was none in the back. well now it seems to be back and i only nitched it because i put my hair in twists so now i can see my scalp. i put coconut oil on it because there was no way i was gonna take those twist out and shampoo.

the only thing new is the black soap i shampoo with. i know it dries some people skin out but i cant see it drying out my scalp when it makes my hair so soft.
when i spray the ojon mix it does get on my scalp but idk if i can blame it on that.

Try skipping the black soap shampoo for awhile to see if that is what's doing it. I know black soap makes my face dry.

:yep: I have been working on it for a bit. I've restarted the list at least 2-3 times. I know I will overbuy but ya'll know I have a fear of running out :look:.

I will be buying from Hairveda, Komaza, Qhemet, Oyin, Afroveda, Darcy's, and Nunulove Handmades. Additionally I will need to purchase from Vitacost and some ayurvedic powders. I hope you can tell that I have cut some vendors.

Pretty Wrap does not play. My stuff is here :grin:.

I've already tried it on. I'm sure I will be good. If so, I will order another one when the black headbands are back in stock.

ok yall im about to go crazy im so mad. yall remember what happened to me this weekend right? well this morning ole dude sends me a friend request on facebook. how crazy is that. so he sends me a message saying he doesnt understand why i was upset but he apologizes anyway. so i message him back that he doesnt need to apologize because really it doesnt mean much to me and the whole day was off from the start. so why does my best friend text me and say "i see you friends with my boo on facebook".
ok this is what bothers me. how the hell is he your boo when you dont know him? thats 1. 2 is he was trying to talk to all of us, do you really want to be with someone like that? also im upset because deep down i think she would have left me by myself if it wasnt for the fact that she knows her grand mother would of had a fit had she come home without me. im just really upset because i never treat people like this.
and i've been over my depression but stuff like this make me take two steps back because i would never do stuff like that to people.

i know this has nothing to do with this thread but i just had to get that out.

also i have gotten at least 10 compliments on my twists today. yaaaayyyy.

I was lurking at work and had a note written out for you, but left it on my desk.:ohwell:

Anyway: I was going to tell you to pick up a "small" bottle of Tea Tree Shampoo and/or Conditioner and they all have them i.e. Giovanni, Jason, AO, Alba, Natures Gate, Dr. Bronner or even Paul Mitchell (the original tea tree) and see if that helps your scalp. Or you could make up that Tea Tree, Peppermint and Rosemary EO mix and rub it on your scalp to see if it helps with your "flakes":yep:

thanx Charz and T. i will go to whole foods tomorrow and by the giovanni tea tree shampoo and conditioner. my dad was using the paul mithcell tea tree shampoo i had laying around and he liked it for a while but then he said his head started itching again so he has gone back to sulfur 8 shampoo. i didnt even know they made shampoo. the thing is whatever is wrong with his scalp is probably so irritated because he dyes his hair too. thats another reason i want to go all natural with the products and i will no longer color my hair. i dont want to have to use harsh shampoos for my scalp because then my hair will suffer.

Che--You do not need all that stress & drama in your life. Of course I can't tell you what to do but I cut nonesense out with a quickness. I ain't got time for it. I don't care if you've been my friend for 5 minutes, 5 years, or even 20 years once you start stressing me out--poof be gone.
