Oh, and you can save money on buying the oils by finding them cheap at indian/african stores and supermarkets.Deanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356365023823603303.post-14640108541212846482010-08-08T22:35:13.462+01:002010-08-08T22:35:13.462+01:00Once we know what works, especially with cheaper p...Once we know what works, especially with cheaper products, the price of hair maintenance goes down drastically. I buy $1 conditioners and use them with a couple of slightly expensive oils tossed in. Once those are gone, I've found $1-$2.99 oils I will use instead.<br /><br />I suppose if I ever feel daring, I'd go to a salon and spend, but I never do. It really doesn't cost much to maintain (my) natural hair.GoldenAhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15928138252968831618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356365023823603303.post-91749816670965960262010-08-08T21:18:25.148+01:002010-08-08T21:18:25.148+01:00Kadiane - Sure the median may be more appropriate ...Kadiane - Sure the median may be more appropriate but in reality the figures are only an estimation. Everyone in each category was assigned to the high value (i.e indicator of the maximum they would spend). So everyone in the $30-$60 group was assigned $60. So the error on the average or the median would be high regardless. I find it easier to digest the average value. <br /><br />Addy, I think the 3 people who spent over $300 may have paid for professional services and possibly also hair extensions. I don't think (or maybe I hope) it is not product alone lol.Jchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983132094574128087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356365023823603303.post-22290422108558956802010-08-08T20:03:39.150+01:002010-08-08T20:03:39.150+01:00I love to know who's the person spending $300....I love to know who's the person spending $300...<br /><br />But more to the point, it's nice to show that just because your natural, doesn't mean it has to be expensive.
