Miss: Dark & Lovely Color Confidence in "Auburn." Maybe my hair is just really resistant to dye, but my hair is still dark brown-black. On the plus side, my hair isn't breaking or anything. Why won't my stupid hair just turn red?! :cry3:
 
HIT:
My izunami flat iron, gets my hair marcel iron straight!

I absolutely adore my Izunami; I've been having good hair days since I got it in March and I honestly feel out of ALL the flat iron's I've had, this ranks somewhere at the top, if not the very tippy top.
 
Huge Hiroshima-sized Miss:

Tiivá Naturals Hair Growth Oil – This stuff STINKS! I opened the top of the bottle and sniffed, and gagged as a wave of nausea overcame me. It smells like a well-marinated homeless man who just ate 12 cloves of raw garlic. What...? Who...? How...? I am too through.
 
Mega-Super-Hit:

Bear Fruit Hair Ginger Macadamia Conditioner.

Oh. Em. Gee. :drool:

1) Applying my leave ins onto my parted section hair for my roller set, doing it section by section. This is oppose to pouring it in my hands and rubbing all over my head before I get started rolling. This new way helps me to ensure that my leave ins cover more of my hair.

2) Using aloe vera gel as part of my leave in routine, helps the comb glide through my hair when roller setting.

mzsophisticated26 does the Joico Body Luxe truly thicken hair? Or should one just stick with reconstructors? I currently use the K-Pak reconstructor and Aphogee. Thanks!

miss: my two pokahauntus braids. they were bad for my ends so im going back to braid outs and wash and goes.
 
Hit: Homemade Flaxseed gel with aloevera juice!

Soft yet firm defined twists! Imagine the twistout?!

My hair has gotten thicker but I am not sure if its from henna. I do know that when u use the poo the lather is thick and it seems like it does give u some volume and washes out like the feeling I get from old CON or elasta qp creme cond poo. The conditioner has so much slipu will like them. I love the body luxe poo and cond, I have yet to try styling products.

@PJaye

I Agree 110% It was terrible.:blush:...........:lol: Funny thing tho', I had a 2nd Bottle that was smelly at all.:perplexed

In fact, it has a very light to non-scent and I've been using it all week. So there's definitely a consistency issue going on, because several Ladies said their's did not have a Foul Ordor.:spinning:

IDareT'sHair

Ain’t that about a...

Hey! That reminds me. How would you rate their leave-in conditioner on a scale of 1 to 10, and in comparison to a similar product?
 
New Hits

Joico K-pak line: Shampoo, cuticle sealer, reconstructor and intense hydrator

Continued Hits

HE color me happy as a leave-in

Revisited hits

Tangle teezer used to only detangle wet hair post wash, 1x a week: I was starting to see breakage when used on damp/freshly moisturized hair. Works best on freshly washed hair.
 
@PJaye

What kind of similar product?:look: It's decent.:lol:

There are others that I probably like more, but it's a decent product and I purchased another bottle.:yep:
 
HITS:

Sally's knockoff Joico K-pac
coconut oil
Suave Almond & Shea (used as leave-in doing the tightly curly method)
Porosity Control

No misses yet :grin:
 
Hits:

*Hairveda's Sitrinilla
*Hairveda's Acai Phyto :lick:

Miss:

Tiiva Naturals' customer service. :look:

Seriously. I hate bad customer service.

ETA: Looks like I spoke too soon and the problems have been addressed. I was reeeaaally salty about how she was doing my cousins, but all is well now. :grin:

Creme of Nature Argan gloss-yuck- it made my hair greasy and the scent was too intense and gave me a migraine and made my scalp itch.
 
I wish I could order her products another way every time I get on Fotki I get a virus.. There are some products that she has I really want to try.. Is that coffee hair cream a moisturizer.?

LadyMacgyver She has 2. Coffee & Quinoa #1 & #2. #1 contains protein. #2 does not. It is very, very good.:grin:

She also has one called Isha Moisturizing Hair Cream that is absolutely Wonderful. As well as Ends Insurance #1 & #2. :grin:

I think you'd Love Them!:lick:

Her Website is suppose to be up in August (I think:look:). But yeah, right now, it's via FOTKI:ohwell:
