I think I have all my Teas & Spritzes for Spring/Summer.

I might pick up 1 more Claudie, & 1 more Shi Naturals.

All the teas I ordered from Vitacost have shipped. I ran through Sally's so quick I forgot to get spray bottles. I need to do some inventory here though bc I betcha I have all kind of spray bottles I just need to find them.

Still trying to decide what my exact reggie will be come spring. I think I will just do some variations with two buns since 1 is not possible. I just saw a WhoisSuga video and I think I will mimic her style for tomorrow. I've seen some other two bun videos on youtube I may go back and look at. I just saw a Mahogany Curls video too and thinking about possibly using her routine this spring & summer.

 

[beautyaddict1913]

I plan to make a tea spritz too. I will be bunning in the summer. I will include black tea, rose water, glycerin, aloe Vera juice, and I gotta figure out how to get some oils into it and I want hibiscus, burdock root, and marshmallow root but I gotta find some lol

Yeah, I'm already thinkin' Spring/Summer Regi stuff.

I was hopin' I wasn't gone be in no durn wig this Summa' but it looks as if I am *le sigh*

By Fall, I wanna be bunnin' & funnin'

Annoyed with my KBN shipment received today. My order contained one body butter but I ordered two.

They did the same thing to me. I ordered one along with their leave in and gel and they forgot it. They sent my package in a flimsy envelope. I will never by from KBN again. It took about 3 weeks for the to send me my butter after their mistake, thy really need to gt it together.

If you have a health food/organic market near you that isn't a major chain like Whole Paycheck, check them out. I buy everything from a local store by the lb- burdock root, chamomile, hibiscus, rosehips, msm, marshmallow root, lavender, raw honey...I think they think I'm a witch .

*tips over to Shi Naturals*

 

[Shay72]

Just ordered my steamer from LCL. So happy I decided to ship to my parents house since they use FedEx now.

 

[natura87]

I am on a hair Nobuy but I want to buy b.a.s.k's body products. Just saw a YT video and I am gonna buy the eventually. They look soooo good and all the product I have tried from b.a.s.k have been awesome.

I have Sunday off so I will most likely do my hair.

 

[natura87]

The appearance of the KBN Hair and Bodu butter is less than stellar considering what I had to do for them to actually send it to me. Its sorta the color of unrefined shea butter...like a musky brown/beige color. Its whipped perfectly though and it gives my skin a nice shine/sheen that I normally dont get from butters or lotions. I cannot comment on the smell becuase I cant breathe.:lachen, but I got it in Marvelous Mango. I am going to use it on my skin this week and then try it out on my hair next week to test it out both ways.

 

[chebaby]

I just figured out how to post pics lol. This is my hair early December when I went to the Dominicans. I flat ironed the ends after this pic cause I just had them blow it out so I wanted to bump the ends.
i also trimed my ends i think twice since then cause my ends were crazy. good thing about natural hair is it hides the raggedy ends

 

[chebaby]

This is one of my first successful braid outs. This is early 2011 and I used honey hemp as a leave in. I think I also used shine and define but can't remember.

 

[beautyaddict1913]

Smh chebaby your hair is so thick and pretty that it doesn't make any sense!! I don't think I have ever tried hh as a LI. I remember not caring for hh because it seemed to dry my hair with daily use. It smelled so good and felt so refreshing to use tho lol.

ETA: I just saw Che's straight hair pic! Girl you are at WL! *gasps* what's your regimen? Lol. I'm kidding about the regi, I know you ain't bit much got nary regimen lol

 

[chebaby]

lol thanx beauty. i love honey hemp as a co wash but it wasnt so great as a leave in.

i trimmed my hair since that straight pic so i think i have maybe 2-3 more inches to go to full wl. and i hope when i get there my ends aint raggedy lol.

 

[chebaby]

i think im about to take a pic of my stash lol. im just too excited that i know how to post pics lol.

 

[13StepsAhead]

chebaby gorgeous hair diva and umm where dat stash at

 

[Shay72]

Great pics chebaby. Beautiful hair. How many years have you been natural? I think you may have said 3. What is the length of your unstretched curly hair? How tall are you? I think we're both shorties. I'm 4'11".

 

[Ltown]

Good Morning Ladies! I'm on my way home today tired, this is definately a busy town very nice and friendly folks.

shay, I get all my teas from vitacost especially horsetail, nettle, burdock they are cheap and shipping always the same no matter how much you get.

Chat later!

 

[bajandoc86]

Now leaving work after 24 hrs.....and I HAVE to tackle my hair. It hasn't been washed or DC in about 10 days. I don't have a clue as to what products I will use. My eyes are shutting down, I'm seriously sleep deprived. I'm babbling.

Problem is I also have a presentation to start, that is due on Tuesday.

 

[SimJam]

chebaby chile why u been hiding that head of hair !!!!!

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

Morning ladies. chebaby that hair is gorgeous.

divachyk & natura87 That's trifflin'. I haven't ordered from them in over a year and their CS and standards were always on point; I guess they can't handle the increase in sales

 

[Seamonster]

chebaby your hair is gorgeous so glad you can post pictures now. Looking forward to seeing your stash.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

chebaby OmmmGEEE Girl, Your hair = *drool* You got alot of Hurr.

And that was back in 2011?

Oh yeah, that Sweet Buttery Pomade does smell

About that stash, I was looking at the bottle/jar in the background. SMH.

PJ-ism ain't no joke.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Ltown

I keep forgetting to tell you, I love that Card. You have "the best" Cards.

 

[SimJam]

I have nowhere to put the products I just bought.

If i put them in the fridge do I always have to keep them there even when I start using them?

 

[natura87]

chebaby Your hair is gorgeous!!!

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@SimJam

IMO: It depends on what you are refrigerating. The only HV I refrigerate is Sitrinillah.

In my Fridge I have:

Sitrinillah
KBB Hair Masque *probably not necessary, but it cost so durn much to run the risk*
Purabody Hair Smoothie *looks like it could potentially go bad*
Bear Fruit Hair
Marie Dean
Teas (Shi Naturals, Claudie, HTN)*just feel it needs to be refrigerated
Hydratherma Naturals *all of it*
Darcy's Botancials DC'er
BeeMine *precautionary, because I had a molded BM product before*
Camille Rose Algae Masque
Tiiva Coffee & Capuacau DC'er
Oyin Honey Hemp Conditioner

All of this is just a precaution on my part.

 

[chebaby]

Lookin' like some kind of root woman. Lawd this Hurr-Thang is scary.
