Thanks for the compliment.

@iri, mom is doing good. She has to go back for surgery December 3. They have to get some more of the cancer.

Ayurveda is good, IMO. Sounds like you have a good supply. Maka is one of the better herbs. I use rosewater mixed with witch hazel as a toner. I also use it to mix my facial masks. Check out the ayurvedic thread under Hair Challenges. There is some great information there.

@Curls, thanks for the prayers for my mom, stopping by and the compliments.

@FemmeFox, I feel you on paring down. That is my goal. I am going to take pictures of my products this holiday weekend. I think showing my stash to others and reading their feedback will help me get better control of my PJism. I will always try new products but want to not purchase them until I use most, if not all, of what I have.

This weekend, I pre-pooed Friday night, cleansed Saturday with Hairveda’s amala cream cleanser and DC with Bee Mine’s Bee-U-Ti-Ful DC. I got under the steamer about an hour after applying the DC. I rinsed in cool water and applied LI (using Kimmaytube’s mix substituting the KK with Curls) and Bee Mine Bee Luscious Moisturizer. I watched a number of YT videos on PSing. I decided to try one crownofHisglory did called challah twist or something like that. Here is my version.

@poeticlyspkng, I did not get the KbN. I was a good girl.

@nattyblog, LOL.

Here are pictures of my style from a couple of weeks ago.





I took the braids out, and here is my moisturized hair--it felt so soft. I was using Bee Mine Bee Luscious Moisturizer. My LI was the Kimmaytube mix using Curls conditioner.

im soooo sorry for missing u guys and esp terra d this morning i really wanted to make it but i overslept and havent been feelin good since yesterday! no need for me to cough on yall curls

Nubie, I was determined to get me some NY pizza. I finally succeeded walking from 42nd St. to 34th Street on our way to take the Amtrak back home Sunday. I was siced . It was so good.

Sorry you are not feeling well. I hope you feel better soon.

We went to Ulta afterward, and I picked up a few of the Mario B. acne products. I hope they work. I really do not want to go to a dermatologist to get anything prescribed.

Is that you in the green hat ^^^ if so, where did you get it from, I've been looking for a larger baret style hat.

Oh yeah, I forgot to ask - the DB line what else would you recommend besides the DC.
