I don't know if you found the answer yet, but where I live in Germany they have TONS of relaxers at the PX...and our PX is tiny. I just ordered some Silk Elements Moisturizer from SallyBeauty.com, have you tried there?

Has Sallys stops stocking Silk Elements deep conditioner? I loved that stuff but now can't find it anywhere.
Yep it has unfortunately - at least online and be telesales
Hey ladies, just wanted to let you know that there's a seller on Ebay called "thesalonthing" (I think) and he sells cheap steamers. I bought one for £140 and it's really good. He does next day delivery. The couriers damaged the hood of my steamer and he sent me a new replacement hood quickly (obviously, I had to show him the proof) and he kept me constantly informed about what was going on with my package.

The sensitive shampoo has very mild and all natural ingredients, very curious about that... I like that you can see all the ingredients in their website...

The Vidal sassoon and the remington ones are the exact same things. Do not get caught up on the brand name.

You ladies in the UK are so lucky. But for any of the German afro haired sisters out there in Berlin I just want to say that I found a wig/weave store in Shöneberg, 5 minute walk from my work, that packs an impressive amount of supplies that the women on this forum talk about. Not the natural stuff, but the other things that have helped others like Aphogee etc... The guys that own the shop look east African. They're really friendly Much cheaper thank amazon uk or shipping from the us. I love Aphogee 2 minute, and I spent nearly double on it from amazon uk.

I decided to take my bum into Pak yesterday. Last time I went in there would be a year ago. Thought I'll share a few things to help someone along the way.
I was surprised they sell Tropical Isle Living Hair's Jamaican Black Castor Oil products! When did that happen? The prices are roughly the same as online stores.
Oh, and I picked up a couple of NunAAT's cream conditioners - Keratin and Brazil Nut. I wanted the silicon mix version conditioner but they didn't have it. I bought the litre size for £6.99 each. Will be washing my hair over the weekend so I'll give my verdict.

Jaffa - hey!
Well, I'm based in Ireland. So, custom charges have varied E11 for a large jar of raw honey, maple syrup, 1-2liters of coconut oil and 18 pack of Zevia soda drinks (in one box) to E214 for products involving a large electronic item (to make ice cream) and about 28lb of food goods. On average for hair products it's about E50 or less for customs so not quite a big deal. (I recall buying about 4 different large hair shampoo bottles with hair creams,etc)
With myus.com, it works like this-
1.you pay for the optional service you require ( I pay $60 per year)
2. You get an address which is where you will receive all your items
3. Once the item(s) are received, they send you an email for each one to notify you of their arrival.
4. Once you're ready to ship, you have 3 options FEDEX, DHL and between FEDEX or DHL depending on which is cheapest.
5. At the bottom of your list of items (you will log into your account) will be the total estimated cost of your goods and the weight.
6. Once you select your shipping choice, you pay for the shipping costs with all of your items INSTEAD of paying one item of $50 and another of $30. Currently, I have 50.6lb of goods waiting to be shipped and it's estimated at $200 - which is pretty good considering the value of the goods. Some are pretty heavy!
7. Once you confirm that you want the order to be shipped, you will receive an email detailing this request.
8. You can track your items and usually customs will have reviewed your items within the same day of arrival to your home destination. You can either pay for it Urgently (as in prior to its arrival, you pay the estimated customs charge -sometimes they refund you too!) or wait until the delivery man asks you for the payment/you pay over the phone.
This usually happens within a week from the time you confirmed your shipping request. So quicker than normal.
Lately, I've been getting clothes and shoes mailed to US friends as customs don't interfere. Hope this helps!

Hi Leona28 I'm based in Dublin.
But the only thing I bought from the US is from ebay no customs.
For hair product I find equivalent, I found a store that sells Braggs ACV
Hi Soratachi
I actually did fing Bragg's in Down to Earth and Giovanni from Here's Health. I have bought from ebay but to mail individual items comes out more expensive imho. Ebay items can also be charged by customs in my experience. This is for US items which are bulky and large- saves a fortune!
One fab site in the uk is british curlies. I've been using more (uk) sites recently bc I get them mailed to a company called Parcemotel (PM). U can buy loads and only pay €3.50 to receive. No other charges or small print.
Have a good week
