Shea Moisture Hair Products

I have been using Shea Moisture hair care products for about 6-7 months now and I must say, I found LOVE!. I’ve been a Naturlista for 3 years and counting and finally I found a product that my hair likes. I particularly use the Anti-Frizz, Moisture & Shine with Coconut & Hibiscus hair care line for its smell, softness and the manageability it gives my thick tresses.

 

CurlNStyleMilk

Shea Moisture’s Raw Shea Butter “Reconstructing Finishing Elixir”  is for dry, damaged hair with Sea Kelp and Argan Oil that seals in moisture and adds shine. Smells spectacular (Not greasy) and leaves a healthy gloss. One of my all time favorites from this line is the ‘Curl & Style Milk’. CSM is for my THICK & CURLY naturalista’s who have a hard time finding a non-heavy cream based serum to maintain thick natural hair. I use this to do my twist outs and sometimes  to smooth out my edges when I want to wear my hair pulled up.

CurlNShine

My second new-found favorite is the newly bought “Curl & Shine Conditioner”. I admit I do not take the necessary time out when conditioning my hair but last weekend I took my time and smoothed this stuff right through my forest of a mane and the more I massaged my scalp with this product the softer my hair got. Finally! A conditioner for my THICK hair. It left my hair smelling nice without the heavy feel of build-up.

I should have snapped a few FRESH photos the next day, but I didn’t so here’s a few snap shots of 3 days later using the Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus hair care line. I was excited to wake up the next day to see that I had me some WAVES!

Dress Lily ‘Two Thumbs Down’

Lately I have been getting a few thing sin order in regards to my business. I booked a photo shoot with an amazing photography from my hometown of Philly, I ordered some beautiful dresses at great prices and I found out this morning that none of what I ordered is in stock.  I ordered these items almost 3 weeks ago, I emailed them about my order and wondering why I haven’t received any response. This morning I got an email stating that my items were not ready. So, it is my duty to let all my women know that Dress Lily is not a reliable site.

Dress Lily promises to respond to each email inquiry within 24 hours of initial contact ‘That was a lie‘ (in my Maury voice). I ordered 3 dresses, a pair of earrings and a ring and none of them were in stock ugh!.  If none of the items were in stock they should have gave me notice   before ‘Check Out’ like most sites I visit usually do.  Come to find out the items are shipped from overseas and takes at least 20 days for customers to receive their purchased items. Its funny though because they made sure to get paid but didn’t notify me of any progress until today.

I am so pissed now because now I have to go out and shop for a whole new wardrobe of dresses that I may not be able to afford in store. My initial reason for shopping for dresses online was to save time and of course money.  Many stores don’t carry pieces and or items one may find on the internet. I had everything planned from the shoes I was going to buy to go with each dress, what color make-up, and hair style I was going to wear. UUHHHH!!!! My photo shoot is 10 days away so I do have some time to figure out a new look I’m going with for my photos.  It seems like every time I take a step forward there is always an issue BIG or small to interrupt the process.  I hate in store shopping especially when I don’t know what to get.

Ladies! Be careful of online shopping. I give Dress Lily ‘Two Thumbs Down’ for BAD customer service and the time frame it took for them to touch base with me about my items.
