Elcence MB is a great leave-in.:)

Why haven't I tried mine MB this way yet??

I like the Design Essentials Rx leave in.(thanks TSU) (creamy)
I like Nexuss Hemectress as a leave in.
I use another one but can't think of it right now. I will go take a look in my stash.
 
Sorry..I just noticed you said no Cones. I will check the bottle to see if the DE has cones. I do not remember.

Is NTM safe to use as a moisturizer after an Aphogee treatment?.

..hoping it does contain protein
 
I was wondering since i just bought a brand new bottle of NTM silk touch. Even though it has cones do any of you still use it and have success with it? What are the main problems cones cause? Should I return it and use something else?

I have done that and it was really nice. It does not have protein. NTM also has a Smooth Shine Anti Frizz Cream Leave in that also contains no protein. But it does have 'cones.

Giovanni Direct has no 'cones but does have protein.
 
Elucence MB or 911 leave in, but don't quote me on the 911. I used it before I became aware of certain ingredients, but what I do remember is that it was loaded with vitamins, herbs,etc.

Go ahead and use it and see how it agrees with your hair. Lots of ladies love this one. Cones are said to coat the hair but again, many ladies use cones with great success. Experiment and see what agrees with your hair. (I have the silk touch but can't remember what I thought about it. I am not using it right now.) HTH

Creamy or spray in.... Thanks in advance!


This is not a spray in, but it is liquid. They are in ampoules. The Roux Fermodyl 619 leave in ampoules have no protein and no silicone.

I like Nexuss Humectress as a leave in.

Okay RelaxedRehab. I am not sure if you will like any of mine. lol

The other One I couldn't think of was the Aveda Elixir. I know you dont want this one. I love it though!

I pay attention to the top 3 ingredients but I wanted to give you all the info.

The Humectress has mineral oil as ingredient number 5. (something I dont care about since it so far down the list.)
Design Essentials Therapeutics RX has Cones as ingredient number 7

I use NTM silk touch and it works great for me...I heard that cones causes build up in your hair but if you clarify often it would be okay...but some ladies like cones and some ladies do not like cones. My hair like cones plus I clarify often too.:)

The best no protein, no cone leave in I have ever used is Goth Rosary. But you can only get it online and for a small bottle it isn't cheap. I LOVE the stuff, though!

It's mostly natural and leaves my hair very soft.
