IDareT'sHair,
I bought:
Iman Hair and Scalp Butter
Montego Bay Oil
Satin Daily Moisturizer
Balancing Daily Hair Moisturizer
Braid Spray
I purchased items for M&S. I saw you raving in another thread about that 3 in 1 conditioner. I will have to get that next go around. The last time I ordered her Mango Creme Rinse and I really liked it. I don't know why I didn't order that.

All of those sound good. Too bad you don't care for the scents.
It's been always, always better for me to get her stuff 'unscented' to be on the safe side. For me.
The only one I haven't tried that you listed is the Braid Spray.
The Mango Creme Rinse was one of my 'staples'. I replaced it as a staple with the Avocado Intense.

I didn't know SSI used "envelopes" to mail.
Whenever I have gotten items from them, it's always been in a Box, even if it's just 1 item.
So, that's strange?
I'm sure she will rectify the situation.

Yeah, I have never gotten stuff in a bag even when using ebay. I was so surprised. No insulation, nothing. Just a bag and some soiled pink paper.

Ordering from Bobeam was a great experience... I'd already ordered from her a few weeks before but she had a great BF sale of 25% off and her shipping is really reasonable-She always ships very fast and for some reason, via pay[al, she refunded me a dollar and some change, not sure why because I got everything I ordered. But anyway she's great and I love her shampoo bars.
Ordering from Aubreys website is always good- they had a great BF sale plus free shipping- they ship quickly too.

Okay if you wake up in the middle of the night and hear some rustling in your bathroom then see some random black chick dash out your house, hands full of hair products....
it was me. I really wanted to try that deep conditioner! How much did all that cost you? I spent almost 200$ in total and felt like a naughty naughty girl.

I got a refund too. It states on the email I received from pay pal that the refund is due to the shipping being less than billed. She has awesome customer service!

LMBO!! I love her deep condition. It is awesome! I still have two jars left from a previous sale. I share with one of my sisters. Everything was around $90. I think this was my biggest haul.Okay if you wake up in the middle of the night and hear some rustling in your bathroom then see some random black chick dash out your house, hands full of hair products....

Sorry to hear about this. USPS stay playing with folks emotions being messy smh. I've had issues on and off with them but for the most part many vendors use them. Hope you receive your package soon.
I'm happy to say that I don't have anything bad to report for this years BF 's orders. Last year was a mess cause I bought so much stuff, had delayed shipping, USPS acting up, you name it. I received my package from HH yesterday. I got Jar of Joe, Soft Coconut Marshmallow, and Refresher Coarse. She even gave me an extra free bottle of the Refresher Coarse.

The bad: Hairveda Deep conditioning Hair masque.
I ordered three 16 oz jars of the above. The owner use to fill to the rim, now she does volume.
I won't purchase from her again. Her items cost too much to not give a little extra.
The good: I received my APB with free lotion.
I can't wait to try it.

I STILL haven't received my Soultanicals order. First, I had to wait forever for them to ship it. Now it's being held captive by USPS. I'm so over it!

Yes I did, thank you for checking on me! Unfortunate my hair did not like it at all ( the banana brulee deep conditioner) so I posted it for sell.

That's just the renamed hair milk right? That's one of the original products (or close to original).
I haven't used her stuff in ages but I used to love it when I first went natural.

curlytwirly06 the scent is the WORST! I can't place what it is but it is terrible! As far as its performance I actually liked it but man that scent
I'll have to spruce up the remaining DCs I have with some essential oils because that scent is yuck to me

I know you didn't ask me but just wanted to cosign how awful the Obia deep conditioner smells. It performed well for me but that smell is too much.
