Hi Everybody!!! I'm trying to nail down my staples and lotions, milks, pomades, oils and butters are a few of my favorite things.

That being said I loc'd with Marula Muru Moisture Guru, it super thin so it's my "l" , Keravada's Amla, Brahmi, Bhringraj oil, and KBB' Supa Dupa Hydrating Cream. I also greased my scalp with a homemade pomade.
 
On the length,applied Obai hair cream & sealed with warm natures blessing..

Happy Hair Growing!
 
Tonight I am going m/s with kkb in my spray bottle with water and castor oil and seal with my mango butter mix=silky soft moisturize hair!
 
My hair is sooooo dry! Feels much better after this moisturization & sealerization session: PBN MM, DB Madagascar creme, Claudie moisturizing quinoa coffee creme. Spritzed ST Sorrell & baggied.

What a greasy mess this combo turned out to be, my neck and forehead feels like an oil slick. Im at work with a paper towel around my neck and three people have already asked me why my forehead was so shiny. If I could wash my hair in the bathroom sink, I would. What a day !!
 
I posted this in the HairVeda thread but I don't know if everyone is subbed to that one so I'll repost it here:

******************************

I have a few questions ladies:

Can you describe the scent of the Jardin Conditioning Oil?

The Buzzy Izzy Gets Soft & Shiny Oil is described as smelling like Cucumber on the site, but what is the "Essential Oil Blend" (kind of vague IMO)? Are the essential oils listed on the bottle? How many ounces are in the bottle?

How many ounces are in the Hydra-Silica Spritz bottle? Are the ingredients of the "Special Herb Blend" listed on the bottle?

Sorry to have to ask ... these things should be posted on the website but

Thanks in advance
 
@NappyRina

That Jardin has a Floral Scent. In fact, I'm using it now.

I thought it would be off-putting but it isn't (not a big fan of Floral Scents). It doesn't linger.


The Hydrasilica Tea Spritz looks to be about 4 ounces. Lemme go grab a bottle......

Purified Water, Chamomile, Flower Water, Horsetail, neem, Glycerin, Polysorbate 20, Phlahlate Free Fragrance

Thanks for the details! .... Yeah I don't care for floral scents either but since you say it's light and doesn't linger I'd be willing to give the Jardin Oil a try since so many people love it

Good thing your bottle has the ingredients for the Hydra-Silica ... I'm allergic to Chamomile (it's in the Ragweed family) .... Unfortunately I would not have known that I should not order it b/c the website ingredients do not include the details of the "Special Herb Blend" ...

Why do vendors do this?!!!!:perplexed

Are they more worried that someone will "steal" their recipe than their customer's having potenital allergic reactions? :nono:
 
@NappyRina

Not sure Hun? :sad:

There is no telling if they're protecting their creations from potential Piracy or thinking their giving us something "special".:look: With their 'special blends'

Glad I was able to get that for you, so you wouldn't order or run the risk of potentially having a reaction.:yep:
 
@NappyRina

I still think I like CoCasta and Avosoya Better. :look:

However, Jardin does have some really great ingredients in it.:lick:

I got this bottle on a "Swap" - I'm pretty sure I'd purchase it though.

Now you dun started somethin' ... now I'm looking at those 2 oils...:lol:

Can you describe their scents and how you use them/make your hair feel?

What are the ingredients for the AvoSoya .. they are not listed :look: ... is it simply Avocado & Soy Oil like the name implies?
 
@NappyRina

CoCosta is heavy - like Jardin (like Castor Oil) with a pleasant fruity scent.

Avosoya is super lightweight and also smells good. Lemme see:

Avocado Oil
Soy Oil
Neem Oil
Hemp Oil
Vitamin E
Fragrance

ETA: The CoCosta feels like how CO would make your Hair feel (like Jardin)

Avosoya is light - like a Grapeseed oil or something whispery light.

Oh cool ... so I may actually pass on the Jardin for the CocoCasta since they are similar in texture and the CocoCasta scent may be more to my liking!

Is there any real discernable difference in how the Jardin makes your hair feel compared to the CocoCasta? I'm guessing the CocoCosta would be better for both scalp & hair....

Thanks for the ingredient list for the AvoSoya ... may try that one too but my hair tends to like Castor oil the most right now...

I think the CocoCosta & Buzzy Izzy Gets Soft & Shiny Oils may be top of my list now since they both have Castor oil and sweet - non-floral scents :yep:

:lol: You probably used too much product! I too used too much Keravada Fenugreek one time on my scalp and it was dripping onto my forehead.

As for me, I used Oyin Hair Dew, sealed with Keravada Fenugreek and massaged a little on my scalp as well. Felt great.

I'd like to vouch for Avosoya. Even though it is light, it has substance. You can feel it in your fingers like it has silicones or something in it. It goes on very smoothly. :love:
 
I M&S this morning using LOC method: Komaza Care Califia Moisturizing Spray, grapeseed oil, and SSI Marshmallow Herbal Hair Crème.
