Stand In Line....! The "One Line Only" Challenge!!

[tapioca_pudding]

CHALLENGE EXTENDED - SEPTEMBER 1 - SEPTEMBER 30

I'm really getting tired of jumping back and forth between products. erplexed Sometimes I feel like if I used all (or most) of the products in a line exclusively, then my hair would benefit more. I'm wondering if anyone else feels this way??

If so, this may be the challenge for you!!

It spans from September 1st - September 30th. We will extend it if the results are beneficial.

Here are the guidelines:

• Stick to one product line
• You're allowed to use one 'off' brand product (or a product that you hair MUST HAVE that isn't a part of your selected line)
• You're allowed to use a growth aid
• You're allowed to use an oil to seal
• You're allowed one 'Switch Up' if the product line you selected doesn't work for you after two weeks

A full line includes: Shampoo (if you use shampoo), Conditioner, Leave in & Moisturizer or other styling products.

Please check in once a week with how your hair responded to the One Line of products. Hopefully each week the benefits will increase.

this is a great idea - I've often wondered if that would make a difference...but alas, I can't join. I've got almost full bottles of other stuff and I'm not buying until those are gone..but I'll definitely join in a month or 2 when my stash is out. I may even make this a personal challenge if this one isn't extended...

Lady, I had to move my 'other' stuff to the back of the closet so I wouldn't be tempted..... It's hard stayin faithful to just one line!!!

checking in ladies for the week

so far, things are going good. I added a tbsp. of efa oil to my half filled jar of the breakage defense mask and will try it for dc/cw all next week. I ordered some aloe vera & glycerin from camden grey to try for a moisturizing spritz. The baking soda rinse is still working for me but just leaves my hair a little too stripped. I purchased some citric acid to use in place of the acv and will see how that works for me.


How are you ladies doing?
