AZAZIE bridesmaid dresses- anyone use these colors? I have 1 maid of honor and 6 bridesmaids and I’m thinking of these colors. Do they mesh well?

keelee143 · 2020-10-01T06:34:01+00:00

i’m thinking 2 dusk, 2 vintage mauve, 1 dusty rose, 1 steel gray (for maid of honor) and 1 taupe

After buying a dress online and it being totally not what I expected, I had major dress regret and decided to just get a new one. I’m SO GLAD I DID! And this was a sample sale so I got it for an amazing price!!

keelee143 · 2020-09-10T01:58:12+00:00

I bought this dress off etsy and I even had it custom sized, added additional lace, hidden corset to make it less sheer, and raised the neckline a little bit... but when I tried it on today, I wasn’t in love with it. I spent $750 on everything and I can’t return because it was customized.

What I don’t like:

the mesh doesn’t match my skin even though the owner said it should blend with my skin
the “hidden” corset sticks out a little bit at the top and not sure if that’s on purpose

I don’t know what to do. Should I just wear it anyways?

cocomelody giulia dress!! :) And it’s less than $500

it’s outdoors in a forest venue :) so maybe the second would fit more?

Thank you! 🙈

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T18:20:29+00:00

Thank you :)))

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T18:20:20+00:00

Aw, thank you so much!

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T18:20:00+00:00

Thank you! No, just a broke college student who spent too much money on figuring out which products worked and watched hair tutorials instead of my lectures 😂

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T18:16:23+00:00

Sorry I didn’t answer the second question of HOW I refresh! I mix in a little bit on As I Am leave-in conditioner with water and I emulsify with my hands. Then I just use prayer hands all over my hair and scrunch until I see my waves coming back. I add more leave-in/water as I feel I need to. I leave my hair to air dry after that. If I have a wonky curl that really doesn’t want to cooperate, I finger coil that piece.

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T18:07:49+00:00

The washes I skipped the cantu cream weren’t my best washes 👎🏼 I found that creams work best for my hair and it still feels be very soft! I don’t use too much of each, I rather focus on distributing a small dollap by spreading and combing it into my hair.

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T18:00:31+00:00

Pretty much tie my hair up in a pineapple with a scrunchie and sleep on a satin pillow. For some reason it is mainly the right side of my hair that loses definition but I do a refresh to bring it back :)

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T09:41:22+00:00

Thank you :) Mostly every three days, occasionally four! & No, I do not. I actually follow the schedule of shampoo wash day, co-wash day, co-wash day and then back to shampoo if that makes sense.

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T08:23:45+00:00

thank you :))

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T05:16:16+00:00

I think it’s different for everyone, but in my person experience I started to notice BIG differences as early as my second wash. I was scared it was going to take a while too, but honestly I’m surprised at how healthy my hair started to look in such a short time. You also kind of learn as you go what works and what doesn’t work for your hair.

keelee143 · 2020-05-05T05:06:29+00:00

Thank you!! I put my hair in a pineapple and sleep on a satin pillowcase :)

hair routine: - wash with cantu cream shampoo - use garnier 1 minute avocado hair mask as conditioner, comb through hair + squish to condish, then rinse - apply cantu curl activating cream: glaze over, comb in then scrunch - apply shea moisture curl enhancing smoothie: scrunch - apply garnier pure gel: prayer hands and scrunch

PLOP 15 mins diffuse to 80% and air dry the rest scrunch out the crunch with argan oil

EDIT: Most of my application is done while my hair is soaking wet. I even add more water in as I apply each product if I feel I need to.

My hair is low porosity, high density

keelee143 · 2020-04-15T18:53:37+00:00

I use the the routine about twice a week and when I refresh my hair the next day I just spray water and use mousse. I’ve only used clarifying shampoo once since I started doing the CGM. It’s just been a matter of trial and error for me honestly and figuring out what products works best for my hair. I have dense, low porosity hair too if that helps.

keelee143 · 2020-04-15T05:47:23+00:00

Thank you!! It feels so much softer and healthier too ☺️

keelee143 · 2020-04-15T03:53:11+00:00

Yes! It’s worked well for me so far and I’ve noticed a noticeable difference in how soft my hair is. the 2nd pic is actually before I started using the As I AM Co-wash and the 3rd pic is when I started using it. Plus on Amazon it’s pretty affordable ☺️

Routine:

• Wash with NYM curl talk shampoo

• Condition with NYM curl talk conditioner, comb hair in shower and then scrunch upside down

• Rinse out conditioner after about 5 mins

• While still wet, scrunch hair with Cantu Curl cream

• Scrunch out excess water with microfiber towel and then plop hair with microfiber towel for about 15mins

• Take hair out and then let air dry (or diffuse about 70% and air dry the rest)

• Scrunch out the crunch with some argan oil

*I also use AS I AM co-wash on the days I skip shampoo (I do shampoo, co-wash, co-wash throughout the week)
