Hits

Redken Cleansing Creme- a clarifier that puts me in check every time.

Curl Junkie Repair Me- I almost left it in too long. Who am I kidding I left that stuff in for 20 minutes: 10 with heat 10 without heat. My head feels brand new. Protein and my hair.. Like kool-aid and water. Yup

Ecostyler- edges don't be behaving....

Misses
Nothing at the moment

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

AOGPB
LOVE THIS STUFF! SUPER HIT

 

[Britt]

EnExitStageLeft I'm glad to know it's not only me . At first I ordered one bottle and loved it, I ordered a next one b/c the first finished so quickly. I realize I use a lot of it. I use it to help detangle, as a rinse out conditioner and b/c it's so thin I pour a lot. I just ordered 2 more bottles. This is a product where ordering 1 bottle at a time ain't enough

 

[EnExitStageLeft]

Brittster I used it and was like what the heck?! Where's all my product

 

[IDareT'sHair]

CONTINUED HUGE HIT:
Komaza Scalp Butter

 

[AlliCat]

Hit: aveda anti-humectant pomade

 

[ms.blue]

Big Ole Miss:
shea moisture hibiscus and coconut curling souffle gel.
This stuff left my hair a sticky mess plus took forever and a day to dry. I left my house with a frizzy twist out but returned home with a frizzy fro. I tried mixing the gel with the olive oil eco styler (in which I have came up the conclusion after 4-5yrs, that my hair does not like this stuff as well)...still a fail.

Big Ole Hit: Nubian heritage indian hemp and tamaru taffy and Jamaica lime and mango resistant gel for twist outs....perfect hold and moisturized hair.

Continued Hit: Aubrey Organics GPB. This conditioner has never done my hair wrong throughout the yrs. I really need to stop buying different conditioners and just stick to this conditioner.

ms.blue I can only use that SM soufflé gel in the winter. I get great moisture and awesome definition with it then, it contains too much glycerin for me to use it in summer.

 

[ms.blue]

curlyhersheygirl, thanks for the tip because I refuse to throw that gel (is it even considered a gel?) away. I'll just continue to keep the product in my refrigerator.

 

[curlyhersheygirl]

ms.blue That name is really misleading just like the curl enhancing smoothie. To me the soufflé is an oil and glycerin based styler with medium hold and the smoothie is a moisturizer. Neither enhances or sets your natural curls or coils the way traditional gels or jelly stylers do.

Revisited Hit:

Silk Dreams Vanilla Silk.....Its the best, the other SD Condishes are good, but NOTHIN' beats it in my opinion (Keep in mind that I haven't tried the Shea What or Shea WHat Deux yet lol)

EnExitStageLeft Of course I'm currently DC'ing with SDVS... Forgot all about that bad boy until you mentioned it. Needless to say I finished the darn jar. There was half left before I started

Are you going to set afterwards? I know its going to be soft as all get out.

HIT!
Jane Carter Solutions:
re.store Creamy Condition Cleanser - watery, but left my hair soft and moisturized after rinsing. It was unexpected considering how watery it was.
hy.drate Creamy Leave-In Styling Smoother - applied to wet hair after cleansing with re.store Creamy Condition Cleanser. When it dried down, I was pleased, but I wasn't sure what it was going to do at first.
hy.drate Seal & Shine - Spritzed this on my hair after applying the Creamy Leave In - result? The shiniest, sparkling hair I've ever had. Caution: this product makes your hair sparkle and shine. Wear sunglasses. Not for the faint of heart.

MISS

Kenra Moisturizing Conditioner. For the price, I need wayyyyy more than what I got. Hair felt awful in the shower before and after rinsing. I accidentally fell asleep and it airdried to something a bit more desirable, but not enough for what I paid. And to have the nerve to have parabens. Nahhh im good
