Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge pt.5

[flyygirlll2]

I haven't really been buying anything. I've pretty much been clearing some stuff out of my stash and trying to use stuff up.

The last two wash days haven't been great. I dread wash days now. Mandatory positive; my twists are starting to hang more and my hair is growing like weeds it seems.

Likewise. I want to purchase out of habit but I have nothing I really want to purchase.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I'm still sick but I'm glad it didn't get worse

@rileypak
So am I.

@flyygirlll2
That is a Mandatory Positive.

I hope your Wash Days get Better.

I pulled in my MHC Type 3 to start using.

It really doesn't "look" like something I'll be interesting in repurchasing - but I could be wrong.

Will stick to: Buttery Soy, Type4, Sophia's and Honey Hair Mask.

@Saludable84 I'm typically feenin to buy something but these days I'm meh about it. I just want to reduce this stash.

@IDareT'sHair Yeah, lol had to at least focus on something positive. I need to revamp my regimen, some things are just not working for my hair anymore.

That's so frustrating.

At least it's growing like weeds and not breaking or coming out.

I tried the TMN Mouisture Cream without shea butter and I don't like it. I think it might have to do with the oatsraw in it or something. My hair responded better to the Amla & Avocado Leave in.

I also noticed that the second Banana Twisting Pudding I bought is much more thicker and some of the ingredients are different. The first one I have is a looser creamy texture and my hair loves it but this one is just ok. I realized afterwards how different they are

It is very annoying. It's like my hair has revolted smh.

@flyygirlll2
I have a problem with Oatstraw most of the time.

Loved the Banana Twisting Pudding. I only bought it once x2 Jars (swapped x1) and you are right it was nice and creamily delicious.

My 8oz Amla & Avocado I bought recently totally is different from the other two 16oz I've bought in the past. Color, Consistency, Scent. The first x2 were dense, darker and more herbally and pudding-y.

This one is lighter and whipped and doesn't look as "herbally" but I guess it performs okay. I was just disappointed when I saw how different it was.

I was going to convo her until I read "all batches are handmade and may differ" so I left it alone.

I still have an unopened 16oz I ordered recently, I'm afraid to open it.

@flyygirlll2
Oh No!

Maybe because it's settling into being fully Natural and no longer in a transition-y state of mind.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@flyygirlll2 @rileypak
I'm thoroughly convinced each has it's own special challenges: Relaxed, Transitioning, Natural.

All of them come with their own special issues.

Thankfully I still have the first Banana Pudding. I'm mad she switched up the ingredients. This is my first jar of the Amla & Avocado but it's pretty creamy and so far performs wonderfully. I used it today and sealed with Cream & Coco's Sweet Potato and Marshmallow Tincture


I have a pet peeve with consistency issues

I loved the Banana Pudding. I hate I blew through my Jar now that I know it's different.

I pulled out the C&C Sweet Potato Tincture and it smelled so Goodt I put it back....

Oh Gurl, I feel you on the Consistency "drama" - I woke up ticked about BRB and her reformulation. I just can't.

 

[flyygirlll2]

@IDareT'sHair Idk but I'm going to switch up some products/techniques and see how it goes.
This is pretty much how it's been lately.....

@rileypak feel better.

Is it the weather?

@Saludable84
Did you see any consistency issues with your TMN Banana?

I can't stand when vendors do this, messing up a product that was good. Yasss girl that tincture smells so good! I should have grabbed more than one. Speaking of BRB, I used the Chai Tea last wash day and it wasn't great compared to when it first came out smh.

@flyygirlll2
Someone sent me one a while back on a "swap" after I used it, I had to pull the jar out and look at it again to make sure it was the same thing.

Totally Ruint.

 

[Saludable84]

@Saludable84
Did you see any consistency issues with your TMN Banana?

No. All the jars looked the same.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@Saludable84
That's good, because I know you bought several jars.

Three. I checked all at once. Sent one to my mom too. I asked her about if she was offering them again, but as usual, no response.

 

[Saludable84]

@flyygirlll2 i want to try the moisture cream and see how it works, but it will be a while. I feel I might not like it either, but I'll wait until spring to try it.

 

[flyygirlll2]

@Saludable84 Let me know how you hair responds to it. My hair is finicky so I wasn't too surprised that it didn't respond well but I was still hoping for the opposite.

@Saludable84
So typical.

I was going to ask her about a V-Day or BHM Sale and saw that she had a 25% thing going, so I skipped it.

Not that she woulda' bother to answer or anything.

I'm sorry but I'm kinda getting tired of her non-responsive behind. It's just not....cool.

@BrownBetty
What do you think caused it?
