Girl you are going to make stuff go away. Love it. Make it disappear any way you can.

I used up my Zuresh Conditioner and the AOHSR. I combined them together and added some flax seed oil and that worked well.

I have a TBSP of TW conditioner and a bottle of the Black Seed Oil conditioner that I bought at a vendor show.

My friend also made me a shampoo bar. So adding that to my list. I wanted a backup shampoo so glad to have it. Will use it for the first time next week.

 

[faithVA]

Oh I forgot to add some more stuff

I bought the Shea Moisture Milk and another bottle of Shea Moisture Mist. And I have come up with an idea of how to salvage the Shea Moisture Smoothie so I am putting it back into rotation.

So I am going up in products vs down but it will work itself out by December.

 

[JeterCrazed]

Sebastian Potion 9 and Rusk Smoother both sold.
Sebastian Penitraitt gone (not sure I put it on the list. )
Replaced my H'suan Wen Hua. Thought I could do without, but I can't.
Exchanged a shampoo.

Sent from my HTC Inspire™

I trashed about 5 items over the weekend. They've been sitting around, and as of now, I do not see myself using them any time soon.

I am really trying to get down to staples only, I have found some.

I did order some samples. For me that is much better than buying full size products and them going to waste.

I did order, over the weekend, regualar size CJ Daily Fix, and Curl Rehab - used my Aveyou voucher.

 

[NikkiQ]

After doing my twists last night, I put a nice starting dent into my SM smoothie and Hairveda whipped gelly. A few more sets and that stuff might be gone by the end of the year.

 

[B_Phlyy]

Used up some Shea Moisture Restorative conditioner last night. I'm down to about 2 moisturizers right now. Hopefully they can last until after Christmas when things go on sale.

 

[JeterCrazed]

I found some Moroccanoil conditioner under the sink

 

[Evallusion]

Finally, I have a contribution!

Ahem!!!

I have finished 1 jar of Enso Naturals Olive & Honey Hydrating Hair Butter. 1 more to go....

Since I'm in kinky twists, I am now working on my oils.

Tis' all...

 

[JJamiah]

Isn't your hair super, duper, duper long? Does your hair fit in a curlformer?

I would love to see this.

I have some. They are easy to use once you get the hang of them. But I never wear my hair out so I've only used them twice.

faithVA

I am getting the Extra wide & long curl formers

I hope those are good Don't kill my dreams LOL

Otherwise I guess I will have to get extra long and wide! I like the extra wide ones better though

I am relaxing in APRIL and wanna wear my hair and enjoy it
I have priced 10 bags at $139 for 40 of them, my discount brings it to $119 and when I get my 25% off well $89 and some change whew hew

I gotta get rid of it some how

Do you find the CurlFormers hard to put in?
Did it rip your hair at all?

@faithVA

The curlformers are easy to put in. You just have to understand how they work. Use small sections of hair and twist the root enough so that it stays in the hook. And if you try to pull the hair through and you are pulling then you have the hair in the hook incorrectly. I find it very easy. I have used them on both wet and dry hair.

You want your ends to be in fairly good shape. Not perfect but good. And then just take your time taking them out and you should be fine.

Do them early and let them dry. Girl don't try to sleep in those things. You can do it once but you won't want to do it again

I have the short and wide and the long and wide. Unfortunately I outgrew the short and wide in most sections of my hair which is just SL

But they say you can put 2 curlformers on 1 section of hair. I have probably close to 40 and I could use a few more but I always seem to make it with the 40.

What are you going to use to set your curls?

Someone said the ORS lock and twist gel is soft yet holds so I was going to try that since it is sitting in my closet. Otherwise I have Wen Styling Creme, Keracare Foaming setting lotion.
I will try to use up something in my stash

Definitely can't wait to hear how it goes. Good luck.

 

[faithVA]

I found some Moroccanoil conditioner under the sink

That's really not bad to only find 1 product

 

[JJamiah]

Thanks for all your help. Will definitely take Pichas LOL

*sigh* Having a setback. The doctor put me on Selsun Blue for scalp pain. The good news is, I'll be washing my hair daily like my hair is on fire and therefore using a LOT more conditioner AND the shampoo is super moisturizing OMG, but of course, I bought a shampoo.

The Moroccanoil I found will be done tonight.

You have to do what you have to do. A healthy scalp and healthy head of hair is more important. I hope it turns out successful.

My hair is going through moisturizer like it's going out of style. I picked up some African Pride Moisturizing Lotion the other day because I needed a creamy leave-in. But I should be finished with my WREB soon so the stash is still technically going down.

11/12/11 Gave a box to my friend for her mom

 

[faithVA]

Used up a bottle of SM Mist. Just have 1 left.

 

[Napp]

i bought a conditioner and a DC and am contemplating buying the matching poo and a another DC

 

[faithVA]

I went to the health food store to get honey since some article said the honey I had was probably not a US product. And I believe they are right. I bought raw, unfiltered and it taste totally different

Well since I was there, its a trip for me, I bought a can of coconut milk and I bought AO Blue Camomile conditioner.

Um, I was supposed to be getting White Camellia but duh, I don't know what I was thinking. I guess I saw the C and Camellia and Camomile? I dunno. When I got home I looked at it and knew it wasn't what I was supposed to get. But I don't want to use up gas to take this back so I am going to just us it. And I will pick up the White Camelia when I go buy my vitamins if I don't like the Blue Camomile. So this will be my DC since I don't have one and I will use the other conditioner I have for cowashing.

Used up some WREB conditioner and working on a sample size of shampoo.

That's real honey. I hate commercial american honey. It's turrble. Manduka honey is best if yoy have the money. Very good for the skin.
