[Pompous Blue]

Curl Junkie Pattern Pusha hair gel\used with CJ HIBISCUS & BANANA HONEY BUTTA - LEAVE-IN Conditioner. Braid-out and flat-twist-out styles (definition) stay moisturized and last for days. Also, the gel holds up in Florida's humidity. It's been about 80% relative humidity here lately and my style is still intact at the end of the day.

As always:
Darcy's botanicals pumpkin seed conditioner. The most moisturizing conditioner ever!!!! Is effective with or without steam! Hair is very moisturized after hard-core protein treatments and after henna treatments. Never fail!!!

Donna Marie Super Buttercream - Great leave-in. Works well with gels. Stay moisturized for days.

Have you tried the Kizuri beauty dc? I hear it's comparable to the Bask cacao bark.

 

[Ogoma]

Continued Hit:
Trader Joe Tea Tree Tingle - the best co-wash/detangling conditioner ever
Ouidad Curl Co-wash - gets my hair and scalp clean and still leaves my hair soft
Curl Junkie Curl Rehab - moisture, consistency, spreadability, accessibility. Top on all points.

Neutral:
Pura Body Naturals Sapote Lotion - Decent, but when used alone not enough moisture for my hair.

 

[Iluvsmuhgrass]

HIT:
Original Moxie No Foam Shampoo. FINALLY a no foam poo that cleanses without stripping, without buildup, and without making me itch.

 

[EnExitStageLeft]

Neutral:

Purabody Naturals Chocolate Smoothie......I mean its aight , BUT I wont be repurchasing. It soften my hair and left it conditioned, but nothing spectacular. 8 ouncers only get 2 to 3 uses anyway depending on the thickness, so I only have 1 use left.

Continued HIT:

SSI Coco creme Leave In: This stuff is BOMB for rollersets. My hair feels so nice when I use it. DEFINITE repurchase. Thanks DominicanBrazilian82, @Babygrowth and @Supergirl for putting me on to this.

Komazacare Matani Leave In: Thanks @xu93texas for reminding me how good this stuff is . Its like a hotbed of smoothness and ceramides! YUM .

Revisited Hit:

Giovanni 2 Chic Ultra-Sleek Hair and Body Potion.......BEST SILICONE FREE HEAT PROTECTANT EVER! We're talkin' HG status here . I love my Emtage Serum, but this stuff is blazin' amazin'. My hair felt like butter after applying.

@Pompous Blue

Good to know about DB Pumpkin.

I was planning to use it as a Cowash.

IDareT'sHair

I've used it for co-washing, too, and DCing and as a leave-in. It really is a durn good product!!! I wish she sold it by the quart or gallon and put it in JARS instead of those bottles. The product is so rich you can never get it all out.....LOL.

 

[IDareT'sHair]

Pompous Blue

Thanks Blue. I will try it both ways. I can't beweave I've had it this long and have never even used/tried.

But I think BF I'll get a couple 16 oz'ers

However, the DC'er is all that.

Good Stuff!

[divachyk]

Revisited hit turned a miss: SCurl made my 11 week ng and length feel super moisturized like a dream but my scalp became irritated. Think the reformulated fragrance might be the reason for the miss. Bummer on that!

 

[NaturallyATLPCH]

Hits:
Soultanicals Hair Sorell Kink Drink
Naturelle Grow Herbal Blends DC
SDot Beauty DC as a leave in/styler
Naturally Amari Hempseed Butter

[gorgeoushair]

Hit: SD Shea What Deux and Vanilla Silk but Shea What is better

 

[trclemons]

MISS: Hawaiian Silky. I hate the waxy feel it gives my hair.

 

[AlliCat]

Hit: grapeseed oil
Continued hit: flexi rods and pin curling

 

[Mrsptaylor]

Continued Hit: HV Whipped Clouds, SM Curl Souffle, and JC Revitalizing Leave-in Conditioner

Miss (Sadly): Soultanicals Knot Sauce and Marula Maru or whatever it's called. Both products feel great initially but my hair ends up feeling so dry to the point where it feels like I used nothing on my hair. I'm going to have to give them both away.

 

[LifeafterLHCF]

Hit-Doing my hair in buns. Sock buns or bun formers wrapped in satin. I feel really elegent and stuff with a bun.
Dcing with heat
Taking care of my ends well with oil

Miss
Listening to a coworker tell me I don't look cute with a bun.
Not enjoying my hair sooner!

[natura87]

HIT

Hairveda Whipped Creme under KCCC. Not a big fan of KCCC but it works well with Hairveda.

 

[EnExitStageLeft]

POTENTIAL HIT(S):

ClaudiesHairRevitalizer Hair Tea Spritz-

Love her CS, but the fact that her products are AWESOMESAUCE doesn't hurt either and this product is def. that. I used it as a tea rinse today under my dc and y'all....my....hair....felt....like.....BUTTA'! This is only my first time using it, but I will use it again Sunday and will report back with the results, but so far so GOSH DARN GOOD!

IPN rolleyes Horsetail and Hibiscus Retention Mist-

I picked this up along with the tealightful shine in the swap thread and I have to say the stuff is pretty frickin' good. Smells nice and left my hair soft on impact. I used it was my liquid Leave in after cowashing tonight and I have to say that Denise did that (with her theivin'/conivin' behind smh). Like the Hair tea spritz I will report back Sunday and let you guys know the final verdict .

 

[Saludable84]

Hits:

Air dried hair- I usually don't like it, but this time I actually like it and miss it.

Twist Out- who doesn't enjoy a good twist out?

Silk Dream Whea Germ- my Darcy's Botanicals Daily Leave-in is giving it the side eye.

Prepooing- oldie, but still a goodie

Not missing anything at the moment.

Please excuse my iPhone; it's trying to get it together
