Wanted: samples of oils etc

[MystressDeath]

So I am experimenting with oils etc. I have tried jojoba and safflower oil but it makes my hair crunchy.
I have read that shea/cocoa butter and aloe vera can be used to 'oil' hair and make it moisturized. (if you know any more please tell! )
I'd like some tiny amounts of these and anything else that can be suggested (Before I go and blow more money on whole bottles!) I'd be willing to pay for postage.
Thankyou!

Let me take a look when I get home from work to see what all I have. I know I have shea and seveal others. I'm thinking I have some cocoa as well.

I'll be back online Monday to let you know. If I have something you haven't already received, I'd be more than happy to help you out.

Oh, and WELCOME to the boards!

[MystressDeath]

I'd appreciate that so much!!
I'm also looking at trying some coconut oil.
Where abouts do you live pgw?
Thanks

[pgw]

I live in the US.

If your interested in mixed oil I have some from curl junkie. I ordered the conditioning sampler from them but I don't use oil so they are unopened. I have 1 dram of each: treatment- thick and luscious hair, treatment- normal hair, treatment- fine hair, treatment- dry/ damaged hair.

[MystressDeath]

pgw: I think we could have a problem, I'm in australia and there might be some problems with customs

BBGrrl: could you tell me more about this "curl junkie" stuff?

Thank you

[BBGrrl]

Probably more info than you want but here you go. The prices are curl junkies. I only have the tiny dram size not the 2 oz.

I could send you samples of oils: coconut, olive, seasame, jojoba, and aloe vera gel, if you would like. I do live in the US though and I am not sure how much shipping would cost. Perhaps we could do a trade?

[MystressDeath]

rasarani: Sure we could trade if you want, I don't have much hair stuff. But I do have some stuff you might like. I just took a quick look in my bathroom cupboard, I found some "Mary Kay Satin Hands" hand cream, its shrink wrapped so it's unopened.

BBGrrl: the Curl Rehab - Damaged Hair one looks good. I'm interested

[BBGrrl]

Great I was hopeing to find these oils good homes. This will be 1 down. Because they are new I was hoping to get the $2 I paid for it plus shipping. Still interested? I am trying to think of a discreat way of doing the transaction since you don't have PM abilitys yet. I can't remember if that comes at 25 or 100 posts.

[MystressDeath]

Perhaps you could email me? As for payment PayPal would probably be the best option. Also BBGrrl would it be too much to ask for a picture? Much appreciated!

[BBGrrl]

I am going to try but I am barely computer literate. So no garentees. Pictures are a little outside my abilities. Just incase I can't get the picture the bottle is .5" wide and 1.5" tall.

This should take you to a picture of the oils.

[MystressDeath]

Those look pretty good!
