Skala Hair Products.

[Americka]

I have grapeseed & evoo. I also have some raw organic honey, aloe vera gel and just reordered my wheat protein, silk protein and oat protein ( firt time ordering)

You have some good stuff. I have a 32 oz container of grapeseed that has been ignored since I got the sunflower oil. Anyway, I would mix the G3, Jaborandi, one of the oils (probably the grapeseed), a lil bit of honey, and one of the proteins. That sounds !

This is what I DC'd with tonight:
Oils -Crisco (yes, I typed Crisco), shea butter, vitamin e, macadamia nut oil, sunflower oil, and coconut oil (I used either 1 tsp or a 1/2 tsp)
Skala Cons - Fruit Cocktail, Shea Butter, Jaborandi, and Avocado (I used 1 tbsp of each except for the FC, which I used 3 tbsps)
Others - Silk Amino Acid and Panthenol (1tsp of each)

The last time I did this one, I also used Gerber's Bananas baby food and I didn't used the SAA or Panthenol. Same results though. The scent of the Shea Butter is a little too strong for me, but I like how it helps my hair to hold moisture. So I might try to find a scented shea butter or use less of it.

What a great idea!!!!!!!! I've used mashed ripe bananas in my DC's before but NEVER thought to use baby food!!!

I'm DC'ing now with FC. I'll keep it on overnight and rinse tomorrow morning and then rollerset. I'll post results...hopefully this will be my second positive Skala experience!!

Someone mentioned in this thread and another thread. I'm willing to try anything once. *wonders what other Gerber foods I can try*

I used the FC masque two nights ago. It was just alright to me. I first washed with SB poo and then put on the FC and sprayed Aphogee Keratin & Green Tea on top. I did not give me as much slip as SB masque, but it was still good. I left it on for four hours and then rinsed and sealed with EVOO. I then decided to twist my hair for a twist out.

Here are pics of my twisted, dry hair. (11 weeks post so much of the twist is relaxed ends) I did not really do them neat because I knew I was going to do a twist out.

Its been two days and my hair still has some moisture to it! So Skala is definately a keeper for me, but G3 and SB are still winning out for me.

the banana baby food worked well for me. I am looking for avocado. there are several baby food companies so one of them has got to have the yuppie organic veggies

 

[JustSimplyTish]

Just grind up some Avocados in the food processor or blender....I am not sure if I have ever seen baby food in avocado......but who knows in this day and time....

So, I've been lurking, and uh, I decided I'll give this a try (esp when that newbie said it got her outta lurk mode.. thats what did it).. So, anyways, I went to BL, and sad to say, they didn't have any... So, maybe this weekend, I'll try another BL.. Not gonna give up yet..

Where are you located?

It's official for me - my hair does not like the SB Skala Mask . I tried using it by itself and also mixing with the G3. It makes my hair very big and frizzy. The other conditioners and masks all work much better, even the FC is better for me.
Will be giving away all my SB mask at the next local meetup.

 

[JustSimplyTish]

Am I the only one not using the Masque at all....I am swapping those too...I really like just the G3 conditioner and leave in.....I like the DC that I was using previously so trying not to fix whats not broken.....

What does the baby food do? I've been hearing about this!

I used the Gerber's Bananas because I ain't one for mashing up stuff.
Bananas are supposed to be good for adding moisture, shine, as well as softening hair. I used the Gerbers because it is already pureed and I could just add it to the rest of my DC mixture. Like Choctaw, I will be looking for other items to add. It's just easier to use for me.

Oooh that's a good idea! I can make my YTC Mask with the sweet potatoes & carrots! Will be going to whole foods after work. I try to stick with all organic stuff

The SB made my hair big too- I though it was just me. So far the Chocolate one is my favorite......

Next time I go grocery shopping I will look for some banana baby food- thanks for the tips ladies.

G3 is the only one so far that I like and it don't make my hair waxy. I was only into the G3 for the ceramides maybe that why it works

anyone ever hear of the company beleza brasil? I inquired with the company about skala masque and she says they don't carry the mask and suggested I try the new product seibella chocolate & keratin mask and offers to give me my money back if I don't like it. What do you ladies think. I know! I know! This is a skala thread! But this is also a brazillian hair care product!

Last night was the second time I used the Aloe Vera masque, and I haven't say, WOW! My hair felt so soft and moisturized after using it. I had it in my hair for about three hours and for an hour of that I was working out so it got some heat too! As I was wetting my hair to prepare for the curl formers it just seemed so soft and supple, I thought about not even putting leave-in on...
