Might be a hit:
Curls (at Target) Curl Creme Brule I have been using it for a few days now and so far I really like the stuff. Testing it as a leave-in and second day moisturizer/refresher. It has a creamy lotion consistency and goes on light into my hair. It leaves my hair feeling very soft. Aloe leaf juice and glycerin are the second and third ingredients so I will need to test it out a couple more times to see if it dries my hair out or not.

HIT
Shi Naturals Pre Poo Butter Creme. I multi function products. I steamed with this for pre pooing on my hair. I also emulsified it in my hands and used it as an oil. Then I also used it on my skin. My skin is special and 7 hours later my skin is not ashy. It's a keeper.

Lol, I'm from Jersey too and I get the Razac thing. I loved their Hair Oil in a pump bottle. It stunk and I'm not sure about the ingredients but it had my hair blinging!

IDareT'sHair I wonder if I can msg her and ask her to add the silk and aloe to the order I made the other day.

I should have stayed my butt out of this thread. I went last night and hit up her Esty store and purchased Silk n' Aloe Cream, Avocado Cloud and Coconut Mango Hair Moisturizer I am hoping I like the products as much as you guys.

I have been using baby oil on my hair ... great sheen and moisture.

@bign__17

You definitely will. No Doubt.

ETA: Please try the Creamy Horsetail & the Jojoba & Argan. You will Lurve them.

I've enjoyed every product I've purchased from her & it's just the right amount.

"Sprout" is the equivalent to Christine Gant's Mixed Greens

And the "Happy Hempy Hair" is a dead-ringer for Hairveda's Green Tea Butter(if you've ever tried either)

They all are excellent. Priced right & Ships Fast. She's as Nice as can be too!

And you're right, they are all primarily Cremes & Butters

Hit: Claudie's Tiffani pomade!
Still determining: oyin dew
Miss: nothing yet

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Golden75

Wonder why Oyin's Dew is so "iffy" with so many people?

Either they love it or they hate it.erplexed

 

[Golden75]

@IDareT'sHair - I don't seem to get the long last moisture feeling like with the honey hemp. I definately felt a difference in my hair with HH (i used while relaxed). So going to try and finish this up to see if it will become a staple/hit.

Haven't you noticed that this particular product gets varying reviews?

That is so strange. I still have 2 bottles to delve into.

Hope it's a HIT for me......

IDareT'sHair - yes, I notice mixed reviews. I bought it when it first dropped, and I think I've read there was a formula change (not positive though).
I'm going to try it on wet hair, later. I'm thinking someone maybe Lita (and I may have already asked her) said to use as a co-wash, or rinse it. May be she can clarify (no pun intended) if/what she said.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

I got both Bottles on a Swap. I'm pretty sure it's the old formula and not the re-formulated one.

I believe it was Lita that made that suggestion about the Hair Dew. I love it. I have no problem with it but I may try to cowash with it just out of curiousity. I love multi function products.

 

[LuvlyRain3]

hit

silk dreams shea what- sd knows how to make a great dc. its so thick and creamy. it has great slip. my hair feels very strong and soft.

silk dreams almond buttercream- this is a pleasant move from the creme de la silk which my hair hated. its soft light and creamy and absorbs well into my hair.

hairitage hydration calm down scalp cream- makes my scalp feel...... calm

hit turned miss

silk dreams alliyahs blessing- this is my final ruling on this. i have too many better butters that give me excellent results to constantly have to deal with the grains or whatever that is in the butter.

Nice Reviews.

Shay72 - thanks, I thought it was Lita. Will use some in a bit. Think I'll use on damp hair vs. wet.

Hit: Dang near anything containing ceramides! Think I'll mix a little in my castor oil, kbb hj oil mix.

 

[LuvlyRain3]

IDareT'sHair thanks. im finally getting a chance to test drive everything in my stash.

 

[Napp]

Vitale mo body styling and thickening lotion-gives me alot of volume and shine. My hair has a healthy silky shine when i use this, no extra oils or cones are needed.

vitale bounce and body moisturizing creme-my only gripe is the smell.(vinegary notes) Otherwise it moisturizes my hair beautifully and keeps my hair from looking and smelling oily.
