I forgot how much I loved grape seed oil! When I mix it with avocado its even better- this has left my hair soft sheeny and velvety. It also seems to be giving my hair more elasticity so it is win!

MileHighDiva, I ordered one Fluffalicious Nutritious on Black Friday. I ordered again on Cyber Monday. I received a shipping notification on the Black Friday order, but not the Cyber Monday order. I filed a dispute on the Cyber Monday order. I got a shipping notification on the Cyber Monday order, but the Black Friday order was finally delivered. Keep in mind, that is NOT the order I filed the dispute on. She politely posted in Paypal for me to close the dispute because the item was delivered. I told her I would NOT because that wasn't the order I filed the dispute on, and when I get my ISH, I will.

I received a shipping notification for my Cyber Monday order on New Year's Day but no movement (the one with the open dispute) :rolleyes:

I am so through with her foolishness!

LOL @ her telling you to close the dispute on the WRONG order. I can't with this ratchet practices.
 
Hit:

KBB Sweet Ambrosia leave in
HH Hemp Nostalgia on dry, angry, tangled hair. I worked it into small sections, detangled, twisted and set it on perm rods before baggying overnight. Super soft and smooth hair. Clearly moisturized. Elastic. Very little frizz. I think it helped to have some Wild Growth oil on my scalp leftover from my inversion
 
I remember why I use to use PBN Muru as a leave in. Because it is a....

Continued HIT on wet or dry hair
*My hair is incredibly soft and so moisturized

Also HIT
PBN Cupuacu Butter

Continued Impressive HIT
*Annabelle's Blueberry Cheesecake DC
*KV Fenugreek Oil
 
Continued hits:

Grapeseed oil
Rice Bran oil
Just Natural Skincare Extremely Dry Hair Detangler (been using it for years and it costs me $24 per 16 oz that lasts me around 5 - 6 months. It's my staple detangler/moisturizer but I've tried other things that work just as well, are cheaper... and I'm trying to make my own products so I might just keep it for emergencies...)
Hydroquench Systems Peppermint DC
VO5 conditioners as to conditioner wash out extra oils
Aussie Moist to conditioner wash out extra oils
 
Hit:

Adding Coconut Milk and Safflower Oil to my Henna. I was able to rinse it out without co-washing and I didn't need to DC afterwards.
 
MEGA hit:
Crochet-style marley extensions: everyone and I mean everyone thinks this is my hair! This will be my go-to protective style for all of 2014. So glad I didn't buy any of that expensive Heatfree or Private Stock hair because this is a cheap and gorgeous alternative. Huge thanks to bajandoc86 for the inspiration!

Hit:
Jane Carter Scalp Nourishing Serum - Going into the beginning of week 4 of my crochet-style marley extensions and I've been using this once a week on my scalp. No itchyness at all, my scalp feels great. Could easily keep his style in 6 weeks but I'm *really* missing my hair! Probably will take out the end of week 4 or 5.

Here is my post on it in the Coffee Thread. I got the Coconut Milk idea from the Minimalist Beauty Blog. Back when she didn't use conditioner, she only added coconut milk and hempseed oil to her henna. No co-washing it out and no Dc'ing afterwards. I'll know how my hair really feels about this tomorrow.

My henna today was:

about 50g Rajasthani Henna
2 tbsp Hibiscus Powder
1 tbsp Brahmi
1 tbsp Bhringraj
1 tbsp Slippery Elm Powder
1 tbsp Honey Powder
1 tbsp Buttermilk Powder
1 Can of Coconut Milk
2-3 tbsp Safflower Oil
Water infused with green tea and rosehip & hibiscus tea

This one is a winner. I left it in for 6-7 hours and was able to rinse it out without using conditioner. I didn't feel the need to DC afterwards and I think the oil is part of the reason why. I was able to LCO right after rinsing and so far my hair is drying soft.
 
MileHighDiva, Oh no! I'm scared of Huetiful. I have a LCL steamer that I love and adore. Have had it for about 3+ years or so now. I use that weekly.
