Why? Just why? Omg.

I will exercise self control.
 
HIT: APB's Moisturising Hair Cleansing Whipped Crème. :love:

Thank you @rileypak for raving about this alllll over the site! :giggle:

This left my hair clean, yet soft and pliable. No stripping, tangling etc that I can get from some shampoos and at the same time my hair didn't have that coated feeling like it didn't clean properly (which is also an issue I have had with some cowashes/co-cleansers).
As usual I am heavy handed, so I probably used 1/4 of the bottle at the minimum. I WILL be stocking up on this at her next sale.

@KinksAndInk funny you mentioned cowashes in jars...I would actually like this one in a jar as it is pretty thick. I find trying to grip this bottle with my wet hands and getting the product out quickly an issue.
 
@Saludable84 Sorry Girl :look: I hate the fact that the YAM is pricey but it works well when paired with DC's. I think it gives them that extra boost IMO.

I totally agree. I couldn't imagine using it by itself because I would go through it way too fast. Adding it to other DCs or putting some on top after you apply your DC adds some amazing moisture and shine.

I have yet to find anything comparable so I just stock up during her 'sales'...

:clap: another one joins the crew!!!

So it used to be in a jar and the texture was different. It was much, much looser back then. I was always worried about contaminating the jar (I did get water in one of them :ohwell:) so I started requested mine in bottles after a while.
She thickened it up quite a bit when she made the switchover to the 8 oz. bottles.
 
Miss:
Siamese Twist Olive Bhringaraj Sugared Pink Hair Cream- couldn't get past the smell. It was supposed to have been in a Double vanilla scent but either the ingredients were overpowering or it was not scented correctly. I tried using in a variety of ways but it just wasn't enough for me to get past the scent.
J Monique Naturals Mango Tango Hair Butter- this butter was nice and thick and emulsified nicely but no wow factor for me.
BelNouvo Coco Castor Nectar Mist- I tried this based on the hype a while back, but I'm finally conceding that it's not that good. I used it up as a refresher/moisturizer since as a leave in it didn't do much.

Continued Hits:
Cream & Coco Cotton Candy Clouds and Jakeala Amla Hair Shea Parfait
Love the consistency and both are great for sealing in moisture on my mini twists.
 
Hit:
SSI Sugar Peach Conditioner. I like it so far. Went on well, slip was good and I liked the conditioning results. I do understand where it could have done more and why @flyygirlll2 used YAM on top of it. My hair felt good, not great, but my results don't break the outcome and the fact that I really liked the conditioner. It's also more on the side of creamy and not thick. I wish it came in a pump bottle because I hate squeeze bottles.
 
Find a cool dry place in your home. Is your location humid?
Not humid and it's still pretty cool here. I've been thinking about the basement. The only problem is that I'd have to find a good hiding place because I have a sibling that loves touching things that don't belong to her. I'll probably just slow down on my handmade purchases until I move. Which means I'll have to pass up all the good sales :cry3:
 
Miss: Not having enough room in the fridge for my hair products. Don't have enough handmade products to justify a mini fridge or anywhere to put one. I need to figure something out because my current situation isn't working.
I've always just stored mine in a closet with no issues. Now I have a room :look: and I just store them on the shelf. The only thing I store in the fridge are the teas I brew for tea rinsing.

Put them in a box marked 'Xmas Decorations' or 'Plumbing Supplies'.
