Hit:
Silk Dreams wheat germ butter conditioner - It was alright during my transition but I love it now! I dont DC every wash day and this is perfect for the quick days I dont. Great slip and moisture.
Got a back up from pampered tendrils since SD is on hiatus :sad:
 
Revisited hit: oyin honey wash. I forgot I had this in my stash. Cleansed my scalp well and didn't dry my hair out.

Continued hit: mhc type 4 cream. Sealing my ends with this is great. A little goes a long way too.

This is on Sale today as a Flash Sale Item 15% off. No Code needed. Did you get the email?
 
@IDareT'sHair thanks, I did get the email. I didn't buy more though, I'm trying to get through this stash smh. I THINK I'm on a no buy until August, might extend that to BF.


ETA: I SAY I'm on a no buy, but I get products for my mama (and my sister steals them from her lol so...ya know I keep buying) :lol::lol::lol:

Hits:
1. Eden Bodyworks peppermint tea tree oil: this feels so good on my scalp. Love the tingly feeling and it's so light. Kind of mad now that I didn't snag a couple of these during the 40% sale. Definitely a keeper.
2. Dessert Essence Raspberry conditioner: love this more than the coconut version. Left my hair super soft and it smelled yummy. Will keep this around since its so cheap.
3. Milk creek botanicals jojoba conditioner: this is another cheap conditioner. Worked really well as a rinse out. Doesn't really have a smell which I don't like but it works wonderfully.
4. Eden Bodyworks peppermint shampoo: I not very concentrated like my Elucence but it works very well.

Misses:
1. Avalon organics lavender conditioner: bought this for the smell and because it was on the cheap side. The smell is not very strong and I had to use a lot of it. My detangling session didn't go as smooth as with other conditioners. Glad it was only a sample because its not a repurchase.

On the fence:
Eden Bodyworks peppermint tea tree conditioner: love the refreshing tingly feeling. It detangled well enough but didn't have much slip...I need slip
 
Hits: Going on a hair vacation and getting braids installed. They have got me through the last 4 weeks, labor and delivery, AND I'm gonna keep these bad boys in at least 4 more weeks.
 
ON THE FENCE
Glycerin in leave-ins - it's been a LONG time since I've used an LI that had glycerin in it & I think my hair no longer approves. Tried SSI Coco Creme LI this past wash day and it is not agreeing with my 2 textures (NG is starting to cry out for moisture already after only 1 day & ends just feel ok). Need to check if this now happens with DB's Daily LI also. Going to try it with an APB LI spray as my L on another wash day or with heat before I completely give up on it.
 
Hit: Winning my first YouTube Giveaway!!

I have a whole bunch of goodies coming my way including some BASK Vanilla Whiskey DC and Lemon Beignet Whipped Custard! :woot:
 
Mega Hit: Smooth Naturals CS, formally Coily Head Chick

I ordered on yesterday morning and got a shipping notification this morning. I forgot how awesome her customer service was. Her hair products were pretty good too, will revisit once my braids are out.

I ordered some Body Whip, Body Lotion, Body Mist, and her new Buttercream
 
Hit!
CON leave in conditioner! I love how creamy it is, the smell, the way it makes my hair feel. Staple!

Going to get some creams from APB and I think I'll be ready to work on my summer regimen.
 
HIT: Oyin Hair Dew. This has been my go-to product for all things moisture all month. I think it's safe to say that I will be adding this as my moisture staple (YAY!).

Miss: I'm not really sure if whipped clouds by Hairveda was a miss for me but I don't think my freshly washed/steamed/DC'd hair liked it too much. It weighed down my hair and my twist outs looked pretty icky (although I attribute that to my technique--I was a bit sloppy twisting my hair). I'm willing to give whipped clouds another chance…so I'll try it again after my next washday.
 
HUGE MISS:

CON Argan oil Perfect 7 leave in conditioner.

No matter how much of it I use in my hair, it still feels very coated. It does everything that is listed on the bottle for my hair but the coated heavy feeling I could do without. I even spray in my hands then apply to my hair to spread it out as evenly as possible. Back to Walmart it goes with a quickness.
 
Hit: SSI Tahitian Vanilla Mist for protective styling

My hair was so soft. I think anything with silk amino acids when I'm wearing a protective style works fabulous for my hair.

Mega Hit: Soultanicals Knot Sauce
The detangling properties are awesome and the smell is :love:!!!

I know I'm late to the party but I really like this stuff. I have layered it with coconut oil as my prepoo, we will see how it works. But I would love it as a leave in!
 
Continued Hits:
Liquid Gold's Whipped Java Bean Hair Crème/Butter
Deva Curl No Poo
KeraVada's Hair Oils
b.a.s.k YAM
Annabelle's Perfect Blends Hair Tonic

Revisited Hits:
AO HSR/WC Conditioners
 
MAJOR HITS : Trader Joe's Nourishing Spa Conditioner and Tea Tree Tingle Conditioner. Where have I been? I've heard about these products so many times on the forum why did i wait so long to try them? I think I've found my holy grail rinse out conditioners
