What dominican products do you recommend?

[Glib Gurl]

I've never used any dominican products. I have no clue where to start . . . I need to strengthen my hair and, of course, grow it. What products do you recommend?

Also, is getting a blowout silly if I'm going to be exercising and "sweating out" the straightness shortly after getting the blowout?

Thanks!

I use all dominican conditioners on my hair, and i must say it is the bomb!! try emergencia for a really good deep treatment for damanged hair, 10 en 1 is a great deep conditioner and the staple is silicon mix, it makes my hair so soft and detangling is a breeze!

for a special treat for my hair i use about 5 dominican conditioners and mix them together. emergencia, 10 en 1, silicon mix, capilo cinnamon and bano de crema protenia de leche (milk protein) mix them together and sit under a conditioner cap for about 30 mins. rinse and my hair stays soft for days!

I really like Silicon Mix and Salerm 21 leave in. I also love the Emergencia for a deep conditioning treatment. Hope this helps.

I love Silicon Mix and Lacio Lacio.

Has anyone used 11 en 1? I just bought this one but haven't used it yet. It smells yummy.

I recommend Capilo's Miel y leche and co-sign with the other ladies for Emergencia. Miel y Leche detangled my hair better than Silicon Mix (and trust me, I was a die-hard fan of Silicon Mix). Emergencia not only detangled my hair, but made it stronger, softer, and helped my hair retain moisture longer, so I didn't have to moisturize my hair as often when I started using this.

I TOTALLY agree

Thanks for your responses ladies. I just got some silicon mix in the mail courtesy of my big sis, Nvybeauty! Now, what is the best way to use it??? (I plan on trying it out tonight!)

 

[HERicane10]

Capilo Sole & Cinnamon is AWESOME! and you already heard about that DELICIOUS Silicon Mix. I just got Lafier Collagen & Placenta and really like itafter 1 use.

 

[HERicane10]

bump bump bump!

Is the Collagen & Placenta moisturizing or did you follow it with another conditioner? I heard it was great for shedding, breakage and to stimulate growth.

 

[curlycraze]

Silicon Mix and Salerm 21.

I love the bolded one and agree that it is Awesome! I'd also highly recommend the Alter Ego Coconut Mask Conditioner and the Nacidit Avocado rinse.
I swear, I truly love Aveda but they don't have a great DC so I was always on the lookout for one. I used Terax for a long time (and still do and LOVE IT too) but still wanted some alternatives. Gave the Dominican condishs a try and was wowed at first use! I will always have the two I mentioned above on hand. I originally ordered the small Alter Ego to try it out and have recently ordered two of the largest jars so that I would have a lot of it on hand for a while! They leave my hair so soft, shiny and WELL moisturized.....

 

[laCriolla]

i really like Nacidit. I clarified my hair with suave daily clarifier. I don't think i'll EVER do that again... my hair went NUTS and was very tangled. It stuck to itself in pieces the size of hot dogs. So i started freaking out and put some Nacidit on it and left it in no longer than 5 min. I rinsed my hair out and as the water was running over it it just let go! it was so much easier to manage and not tangled!

 

[Energee]

Silicon Mix and Salerm 21.

I have a whole bottle of Salerm 21 and have never used it. I think I purchased it a year ago....lol. Really, I was going through some products today and came across it. It's never been opened. I will have to give it a try.

I followed it with Praital Silk Worm angry2: total waste of $4 coulda got milk and honey instead! I'm coping though!)

It was not drying or 'hardening to my hair. I tried not to overdo it and sat under the dryer 20 minutes too. It's a staple for me atlease 1x per week!

 

[ShiShiPooPoo]

I just ordered:

lacio lacio
Nacidit Olive Condish
Nacidit Avocado Condish
Miss Keys 10/1

I have never tried any of these so we'll see...

I LOVE Silicon Mix!

I LOVE Silicon Mix!! It is an excellent DC and I have used it as a prepoo also, mixed with oils and/or Silk Peptide Powder, Marine Collagen, Oat Protein. It's great. It has nice slip, too, for stretch time.

I also like Lacio Lacio, La Bomba treatment, Miss Keys 10 en 1, and Emergencia. All great products.

ITA I've tried all of these and I like them too...Salerm 21 is also a good protein
treatment to leave in when I use it with Lacio Lacio for moisture

 

[neenee280]

Leave-ins
Lacio Lacio for rollersetting and twistouts only
salrem 21 for blowdrying. dont know why?

The lines I love (i only use a complete line when I do my hair...i never mix them up...I am so anal.)
Noniline Noni
Tropical Wheat germ
Pratail Silk Worm (purple)
12 en 1

I love Emergencia! Not all the time but when my hair needs some good detangling.

I also been using this stuff called "Halka". My hair loves it. I use the red one. I asked my BSS girl, "what is that?" She said, "it's like grease Mami." Think like a dixie peach/bergomont kinda thing. I use it when I am wearing my hair back, a sealer...i like it!

 

[cutiebe2]

I used 10en1 and liked it...when I get some more growth I will experiment with silicon mix since it gets rave review...but right now im K.I.S.S

 

[MrsQueeny]

So let me ask, does that one product I see actually contain whale sperm? Just curious. Q

 

[halee_J]

First lemme say this is a great thread!

For moisture, really like Tropical aloe vera moisturizing treatment, my hair is like butter cream after and Miss Key 10 en 1 conditioner is also very good but it seems to REALLY work with dry hair, or if I poo first, I try to squeeze as much water out as I can. These conditioners are really helping with my new growth KEEP THOSE BAD BOYS DOWN!! LOL!!

 

[nicki6]

I recently fell in love with a pre-poo treatment called Apretadora. Its green and has rosemary and cinnamon to help with shedding.

I cannot tell if its affecting shedding, but its VERY effective in softening hair and new growth!

Queeny, no whale sperm in the procuct. Just whale fat:wink2:

Yeah Imma leave that one alone too. Q

 

[PuffyBrown]

I like the dominican products too!
I use Silicon Mix like its nobodys business but I think I am going to try the Nacidit and the Alter Ego and the Salerm it sounds great.

I found that I really really like Henna Queen. So far, I have used the Whale Sperm Conditioner and I love it! I keep saying that I am going to try the other Henna Queen conditioners but I don't want to give up my whale sperm....

 

[sareca]

I love salerm wheat germ mask, it's my all time favorite dom product.

I've used salerm 21 leave-in for years and years ... love it. I also like Nacidit. I just started using it a few weeks ago. I also just stared using Silicon Mix. It made my hair very smooth and soft, but it started to feel hard after 3 or 4 uses. I don't know if it was the cones or the protein, but now I limit its use. I don't like the Silicon Mix leave-in at all.
