Miss Jessie Curly Pudding....Substitute??
This is a recipe started by sugaplum a while back but because the recipe is in the Natural Forum, it was not getting much responses lately. I think because I am newly texlaxed, I am very interested in something like this and I feel that in these hard economic times we who are unemployed can use something like this to help our curls pop, but inexpensively. I think more input from the texlaxed/natural haired ladies in the hair forum would be helpful too. What do you think ladies? Sugaplum, where are you girlie and are you still using this recipe?
Here's the original link to this recipe:

And in the words of sugaplum:
Hello Ladies,
I'm in the process of transitiong and I will be doing the BIG BC this weekend. Wish me luck.
As I was searching the website for new products I will be using on my new natural, I cam across the "miss Jessie Curly Pudding." This looks wonderful...but I wish I could say that about the price!!
So I did a serch on "Miss Jessie Curly Pudding Substitute" and I came across this:
__________________________________________________ _______________
I like the curly pudding and buttercreme but they are a bit much on the pocket book considering the amount of hair I have so I made my own. I think it's nice these girls hit on some thing but It's not really any thing new. Take a look for your self. I came up with 3 products that you can buy @ walgreens for under $7 bucks and mix together for a hold b/t the buttercreme and the pudding. If you want to buy Miss Jessies for special occations or something, great, but if you need an every day solution to looking good please try this at least once.

PROCLAIM : petrolium bees wax 4oz $2.19
HERE IS HOW YOU DO IT.
3 STICKS COCOA BUTTER
1/2 OF JAR OF BEESWAX 2oz
1 32 oz TUB CURL ACTIVATOR
Begin by taking the cocoa butter sticks and placing them in a bowl. Scoop out 1/2 jar of bees wax and place it in the same bowl. Microwave bees wax and cocoa butter until they are liquid. Use an other larger bowl to put the curl activator it. Leave some curl activator inside of the jar for later. Take liquid wax and cocoa butter and pour it into the bowl with the curl activator. Mix vigorously with a spoon. what you will first get while mixing these the two may look like cellulite but be persistant and keep mixing until the mixture looks exactly like vanilla pudding then mix in remander of activator gel in the jar.
If you do not microvave the bees wax well enough it will clump up when you add it to the cold gel activator it may bead up and not allow you to get the perfectly smooth consistancy that you want. If this happens put the whole solution in the microwave for 4 minutes then beging to mix again. after about 2 minutes of mixing add back in the curl activator you left out from before and it should begin to look like pudding.
Apply to wet hair and style using shingling process discribed @ curvesalon.com. or how ever you wish.
This recipe on one average head of hair will last for about 2 months, and costs under 10 dollars, with some bees wax left over to haddle those pesky edge naps. I hope this has been helpful and I hope it works for you
