Girl, Get that Tree Up!
Is the Califa going to be a repurchase or No?
Its a fiber optic tree, fluff it out and plug it in
. I haven't had a real tree since i was young. The califa will not be a repurchase, i have too much elucence mbc to use up to get any more conditioners.IDareT'sHair

It's good to know your Limit!
Yeah, all together i have probably a gallon so, no new conditioners until i use up all this mbc, Ill probably just rebuy the mbc because its a staple.

I can't wait to 'try this one'
I think you'll like it, it can be used as a leave in, a rinse out and a dc. I have my staple leave in so i just use it the other 2 ways. It compliments the shampoo and clarifying poo.

So remember I told you guys all my shampoo was gone except for a bottle of Neutrogena clarifying shampoo?
Weeeeeeeeeeelllll, I bought some Hair One, the tea tree kind, from Sally's. Let me tell y'all!!! This stuff is soooo good! I would never waste my money on Wen, but this is right up my alley for $10.
It smells so good. And it gives a slight bit of a lather. This is how I knew my hair didn't have any build up on it, or else I wouldn't have gotten that lather. I really don't think I will ever use shampoo again, maybe every 6 months to clarify, and for that I might just use baking soda.
My scalp feels so tingly and clean right now, I highly recommend it if anyone was on the fence about it.

ThanksShay: I am Glad Your Hair turned out Nice and You are getting Compliments
You are making your Transition sound easy. You never really discuss any difficulities you're having with your hair and making this transition.
So, it appears, this is going Nicely for You. And for that, I am thankful.
.Honestly no real issues so far *knocks on wood* with my transition. Sometimes detangling can be trying and I have a love/hate relationship with my transitioning hair. That's only because I wish I was natural now. Thanks
.Good idea. I found one for $40 on ebay that is afro textured but I know I can get one cheaper than that.I just saw this video and girl
. I like your reviews alot though.IDareT'sHair

Lamara: So, they have all the same 'fragrances' WEN has correct?
So, will you use it for Conditioning etc.....exactly like WEN?
Glad it worked for you.

Yep, it pretty much looks like a Wen knock-off to me
I used some as a leave-in today, and I also left in on my hair for 5 minutes like the instructions say for extra conditioning. It probably won't be my regular leave-in because I really love Curls moisturizer but it will likely be my back up when Curls runs out till I can get more

Now i already said i wasn't going to get anymore conditioners but this sounds like it would make a good cowash conditioner, when i get rid of what i have ill check it out.
I hope you get it too. To the bolded if you want anything before christmas id get it now, i know afroveda won't make it but anything else. We are going to go from christmas into new years and the mail is really slow.

I want to Continue to Shop My Stash.
Hopefully, this will be my Mantra in 2010.
I do want to try KBB (but it will have to be a heck of a Sale

Seriously tho' I want to stay focused on My Stash.
I want to keep a Radar Laser Beam Focus on what's out there. How they work. And using them up.So....KBB (or anything like it) even if on Sale will be a definite Splurge.

I tried some of the Anita Grant samples today. Yesterday I clarified with Bentonite clay and deep conditioned with Aubrey Organics White Camellia and left to airdry overnight. This morning I used the sapote and castor hair oil. The instructions state to use it on the ends of your hair but I used it all over and it left my hair feeling soft and gave it a nice sheen. I got my hair cornrowed this afternoon and added a little bit more of the oil to the ends of my hair when I got home this evening. I will use it for 3 to 4 weeks until I next shampoo as I mainly co-wash so I get a true idea of how it works for me.
I went for a facial today and the lady used the rose and sandalwood facial oil to finish. The oil just sank straight in and did not leave my face feeling greasy at all. I will use this morning and night for the next 4 weeks until my next facial and the lady can also assess my face.
Earlier this week I woke and stretched and pulled a muscle. I called the lady to see if she could squeeze me in for a massage but she was fully booked. She texted me this morning to say that she had had a cancellation so I was able to have my massage after all. I took the Rose and Jasmine Hair & Body oil and she used this to massage. It smells divine and left my skin feeling so smooth and the lady also said that it was perfect to massage with. We both absolutely adored the smell but could only smell the Jasmine essential oil and not any Rose at all. I love the smell of Jasmine much more than Rose anyway and the lady said the same so it was perfect for me.

Well Ladies: What's Up? Who Else Has Used Up Something this week?
I'm Hoping the DC Challenge will help me consistently use up products.
Although I DC Weekly now, I tend to switch around often from week to week.
So, As a Sub-part of this Challenge, I am going to challenge myself to stick with one product until gone.

hello ladies.
i just got finished wipping a bigger batch of shea butter. i had to mix it twice because the first time i made a mistake and put it in the freezer lmao. now its nice and soft. i co washed my hair with blended beauty quench conditioner and abba intense reconstructor(thanx T). that abba is a much stronger protein than im used to so i followed with natures gate pomagrante conditioner. i used kbb as a leave in followed by blended beauty curl frizz pudding and i braided my hair for another braid out using the shea mix.
i used up the abba recobstructor and have one more use of the bb conditioner left.

Funny You Should Mention this ------
I used mine up too, last week
. And I have 1 more left. I was trying to decide whether it would be a repurchase or not (in the future). I have So many reconstructors to use.erplexedYou're Right, I did notice it was 'slightly' stronger than say.....a Giovanni Nutra-Fix.
So, I guess we could consider this a med-protein.

Yes, I signed up for the 2010 Version. First Time.
Even tho' I DC regularly (weekly) anyway, I'd still like to challenge myself to stick with 1 or 2 Jars of DC Treatment.
A Moisturizing one and a Protein One (prolly one of my 1,000 Reconstructors).
Hopefully, this will help me stay consistent as far as using things up and successfully gauging how they are working for me.
Looking Forward to it.

I used up that tw mist friday. I cowashed today and i got about 1 use left of califa conditoner. And like before i got 2 more uses out of aowc mix and im going to try and use up the miapella this week.
Good job che.
I just finished cowashing my hair and its time to step up my moisture game. When i took my scarf off my ends were dry and parts of my hair was dry. I haven't had that in a long time, so its either the miapella or darcys. Im going to keep an eye on both of them and from now on use 1 moisturizer at a time, that way ill know what it is. I moisturized tonight with tw mist and miapella and just for good measure sealed my ends with jbco.
Eta- i joined the dc challenge so i may dc 3x a week, ill see how my hair is doing.
