Okay that's it now. I've stayed out of this thread with good intentions for ages but the reviews are a bit too much. I'm going to go to that shop in Acton (London) after work tomorrow to buy the ceramides and shea butter masks, although I've got my eye on the Kanechom now too. Let's just hope I can be disciplined!

Do you know what I have no idea, I don't really know Acton that well.

But here is the addy, ME Gina's, 8b Horn Lane, Acton, W3 6QT. It's a 15 minute walk from Acton Town station. I'm going to ring her tomorrow just to make sure that her shop is still open before making the trip!!
 
Thanks Cream Tee, I've just come back from the Skala in Peckham thread and saw the link you posted, it's pretty much in the town centre.
 
grrr! :wallbash:now im gonna have to go all the way to acton from south east. I'm itching to see these products so im gonna take a trip to peckham first since the shop in acton is closed today.:grin:
 
i went to the bss in peckham(london) & bought the chocolate & shea butter masque.
I also saw items from the lisstive, genetiq & force fruits line. I also saw a cocoa butter masque & mini skala aswell as the hair relaxer.

Skala Ceramides G3 Review

So I never got around to washing my hair yesterday, but I did it today and am ready to sing praises! :grin:

In a nutshell, what I did was:
Pre-poo with Oscar Blandi Marine Mud Treatment (I always pre-poo -- might try doing my pre-poo with the Jaborandi masque next week)
Shampoo w/Skala Ceramides Shampoo
Deep condition w/Skala Ceramides Masque (w/heat for 45minutes)
Apply Skala Ceramides Leave-in Styling Cream
Blow dry
Flat iron
Finish w/Kim Vo and Giovanni Serums

My hair now feels soft, and silky, and awesome. I have good feelings about this stuff :up:

Thoughts on the individual products:

Shampoo: It has SLES in it -- I think someone was asking about sulfates earlier in the thread. My hair felt clean but not stripped, and actually quite soft. No complaints.

Masque: Y'all weren't kidding about the SLIP!!! WooooooooHoooooo! :lol: It's definitely runny for a "masque", but apparently the thickness of the masque doesn't matter, because my hair felt plenty moisturized as I was rinsing. And did I mention the great SLIP??

Leave-in: I diverged from my normal straightening routine today as far as post-wash products. I always use my liquid leave-in (Ojon) before my blow drying cream (Organix Vanilla Silk), and always apply serum before flat ironing. Today I didn't do any of those things because I wanted to test out this leave in. I have to say I'm VERY impressed. It might be as good as my beloved Organix blow dry cream (which means something, trust me), but I'll reserve judgment until I use it a few more times. It's also sort of runny compared to my usual product, but its slippiness makes it good for detangling. My blow out turned out great!

I then flat ironed right after without applying any more product. That's not something I normally do, but my hair felt alright and I wanted to see how it turned out. My hair was shiny and silky!

I still applied serum after flat ironing, because the one thing I noticed is that there is no silicone in this line (for those of you that are actually sensitve to cones, take note!). But as a straightened natural I like cones for keeping reversion down. Plus I love the smell of my serums and the scent of the Skala Ceramides, while pleasant, is not very strong.

I wasn't in the mood to take a whole heap of pictures, so these will have to do :lol:

Just after I finished blow drying. Hair was already looking smooth and satiny

^^^ Very beautiful!!! I'm in trouble first it was Skala now it's Kanechom, then Nuurat oh Lawd!!! Y'all are turning me into a PJ I swear :nono:
 
I stopped by several BL on my way home from church. Although they had restocked, it was nothing new; just the same ol stuff. One store only had poo's of AV and Ceramides G3, no condish, masque or leave in :nono:.

OT:
Coffee, you hair is coming along beautifully. :yep:
 
On Saturday the fam and I ventured out to Richmond (VA!!!!) to visit my FIL. The night before I mapped out the local BLs in the area. I was disappointed to only see 2 cermacide masque. BUT being the detective I am :grin: I started moving other containers.

Soon I hit JACKPOT!!!!!!!!!!! I summoned my stepson to quickly go get me a cart, while I fiercely guarded the perimeter. :lachen: OMG they had soooooooooo many shea butter, aloe vera condish and masque. I was in Skala heaven. Tonight I tried the shea butter condish, masque (dc'd) and leave in. My hair is currently air trying and it is SUPER soft. In the shower I didn't have as much slip as with the aloe vera line, but its still FABULOUS!
