I think my hair is Lo-PO but I finally ordered the komaza hair analysis and I'll know for sure as soon as it gets in.

It just felt good rinsing with it. Makes a very nice Tea Rinse. Hair felt soft upon rinsing.
I'm glad I bought x2 boxes.
When are you using yours?

x2 Tea Bags and 1 quart Water (probably). Steeped overnight.
Divided into storage bowls the next day and placed in the Freezer. Will pull them out the day before so they can un-thaw for use.

I cannot reccomened her product line. I ended up washing my hair with a sulfate shampoo to rid my hair of the products. I tried her oil as a pre poo again and I left it on for several hours with heat at the end. My hair was hard when I went to shampoo it out. Her oil...I think it's plain castor oil. It smells JUST like some basic castor oil that great grandma would rub on your chest when you're sick. I have better results pre pooing with regular tropical isle Jamaican black castor oil, coconut oil, jojoba....I don't think there are any herbs in it at all. I then looked over her reviews and I saw a couple other girls saying the same thing about the castor oil. We could be wrong but I'm just saying I personally think it's not mixed with any herbs. There are many other Ayurvedic herb infused oil on etsy to try, but if you want to try this one I'll send you the rest of mine for $Free.99.
My mildly irritated & itchy scalp turned to regular sore and itchy. And I know it's not the herbs because I have a spray with herbs in them and it didn't do that. I also used an Ayurveidc whipped Shea mix from Jakeala naturals and I put it on my scalp and ends and my hair & scalp loved it. I used the whole jar so that was plenty of time for a reaction if there was going to be one. It was perfect & why I decided I was going to go this route for awhile.
That leave in was a disaster...I just can't reccomened but you're welcome to try mine.
I rewashed, and am DCing over night with a lovely product from Sereniti Bath Body and You to recover from this & I'm going to start over with the Ayurvedic stuff next week with the ayurs batch of nature line as well as a different Ayurvedic oil blend I got and I'll be back.

That sounds like the vendor has inconsistency issues. My oil might have more neem oil than yours since that is the main scent I get. I will not try anymore of those products due to allergies.

Thanks @Sharpened and @sparkle25,
Because of your reviews, I decided to leave this one alone. Thanks for sharing your honest opinions.

Do you think you are allergic to one of the herbs?
The thing with me is, I'm not allergic to anything. I'm one of those people who don't get side affects from medications, don't get sick and have no sensitivities. I know it's possible for things to change, but in doubting it. Not only is my scalp itching and sore, but on my face where the product dripped I have two huge blemishes. They don't just seem like a pimple, it's an extreme reaction. It's crazy. I have always had very clear skin, not even as a teenager did I have skin problems. I have used hundreds of products over the years and this isn't the first time I have had something dripping all over my face. I likely have product on my pillow all the time and nothing has caused a reaction like this. I have had my hit and misses with products, hell most of them have been misses. But there is something about this line....

Ok so I'm not trying to call anyone out or say anything untrue, but I have been looking into this line and I found a thread on the other popular hair forum that said LaKshimis Cupbaord was selling Qhemet Biologics and Afroveda as her own product. She allegedly was repackaging their items and placing her own label in them. I don't know if there is any truth to that but I'm going to keep digging.

And, apparently the person that said that got the information from ladies on here. I'm digging

@sparkle25 @IDareT'sHair Oh my gosh, this sounds like another "Gate" is about to go down.

Lol I don't want to do that. But I should maybe stop posting about this in her thread. I don't want to be rude. I do have a thread where I initially asked about this line. I always come here first if I'm feeling weird about a line. It's been 7 years since that other thread was posted so that's probably why nobody said anything. But I have been around here for 7 + years and I recognize everyone, but maybe people forgot? Either way I don't want to hijack this thread. I'll post here again after a week or so when I start the other Ayurvedic line I have.

My new hobby for 2017 had my twists smelling like dirt and gun powder.
I rinsed my hair with "Sensuality Tea Blend"
Jasmine flowers, cinnamon bark, orange peel, rooibos/African Red Bush, and malted barley.
The original (discontinued) tea from Bath a& Body Works had "artificial vanilla flavor". I replaced it with rooibos.

Spritzed my hair with Ayurs batch of nature spray ( she only has one that I see) and gave myself a scalp massage with her hair and scalp oil ( ingredients: Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, amla, bhringraj, neem, Jamaican Black Castor Oil, Argon Oil, horsetail, nettle, henna, Mustard Seed Oil, brahmi, vitamin e)
Hair was instantly softened and scalp felt soothed and lovely. In a few days I will co wash and use her deep condish. Update afterwards

I want to join. My hair has always shed like a snake since I went natural in 2007. I need to see if I can change it.
I have different types of clays, black tea, and garlic oil capsules I'll be using.

Today my hair feels amazing! My hair generally doesn't like oils at all and they definitely never soften my hair when left on after a moisturizer. I just use them for pre-poo and scalp oiling and barely the latter. I'm very excited

Getting ready to brew some black tea for a tea rinse. I learned my lesson and won't use as many tea bags this time.

Added a spoonful of garlic powder to my green tea, but then didn't realise until I poured it over my head that the powder doesn't dissolve haha. It was easy enough to rinse out, but I'm gonna go back to making overnight scalp soaks and then even a diy oil. I also did a rice water rinse. I had made the rinse from the day before and let it soak overnight.
