Shampoo:
~Oyin Honey Wash. I've been using this once a week and I absolutely LOVE it. It gets my hair squeaky clean without it feeling stripped or dried out.

DC:
~Elucence Moisture Balance (moisture)
~Lekair Cholesterol (light protein. This has mineral oil in it, but it works great on my hair)

Conditioner: Since I DC twice a week and add moisturizers to my hair every other day I don't really use conditioners anymore but when I did I loved:
~Aussie Moist
~Trader Joes Nourish Spa
~Victoria Secret's So Sexy.

Leave-in Moisturizers:
~Oyin Whipped Pudding
~Oyin Juices n' Berries
~Karen's Body Beautiful Hair Milk

Oils and Sealants:
~Oyin Burnt Suga
~Karen's Body Beautiful Hair Butter
~Jamaican Black Castor Oil
~Coconut oil

I'm still trying to find one line to use for my moistuizers because I don't like to pay for shipping from different sites just to get what I need. Currently, I can't find anything to replace my beloved Juices n' Berries but I love to seal my loose hair with KBB. That's about $16 in shipping alone because I have to pay for two different shipments. Can anybody recommend one product line that has a shampoo, moisturizing DC, spray moisturizer (like Juices n' Berries), a creamy moisturizer (like the whipped pudding), and a sealant (like the KBB hair butter). I would prefer the line to be as natural as possible. TIA!

Don't use shampoo. Staple cond. Skala Shea Butter or Suave Lavendar. I use them for leave-ins as well. Staple moisturizer: Bee Mine Luscious or Skala cond. mixed with coconut oil. EVCO is my staple oil/sealer. I like keeping it simple so my product list is small.
 
Coconut oil
Oilve oil
Aussie Moist shampoo
Aussie Moist conditioner
Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Special shampoo
ORS Hair Mayo

These have been my staples as of late. I've been experimenting with different moisturizers and styling products so I don't have much more to add.
 
Shampoo:
CON Kiwi Citrus

Giovanni 50:50

Joico Kpak (if I need protein) I don't use protein treatments...Joico Kpak line is mild.

Condish:
VO5 (Strawberries & Creme and Pomegranate & grapeseed oil)...mostly as co-wash...I will DC with these from time to time just to switch it up...

ORS Replenishing Conditioner (#1 DC weekly)

Silk Elements Luxury Moisturizing conditioner....Its okay...but its not going to be replaced once finished.
Joico Kpax Condish (if I need protein or I will mix this with VO5 as needed)

Leave in conditioners:
HE LTR....I smother this on my ends when I wear twists since they are grazing my shoulder and back now.

Cantu Shea Butter creme....This is what I use to twist or do bantu knots...

Oils (for sealing, pre-pooing, or mixing with a shampoo or condish)
Organic jojoba oil
EVOO
Taliah Waajid...some kind of Orange-colored natural oil....Smells good so I am stocking up soon.

ACV: Ms. Bragg's Organic Raw Apple Cider Vinegar

Heat Protection: (I use these what 2-3 times a year?)
Tresemme Heat Tamer Spray (for blow-drying only)

CHI Silk Infusion for flat-ironing
