Who said to use Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion on your hair?

[Nice & Wavy]

Being the PJ that I am,I tried it and THANK YOU LADIES- my ends are uber !!!!


OH also, what is a good clarifying poo?

I use Redkin Hair Cleansing Cream and it keeps my hair soft while getting it very clean. I love it!

The other one I would recommend too is Elucence Clarifying Shampoo. It is really, really good!

I just did my daughters hair with some of the cocoa butter vaseline lotion. Just put it in a ponytail. Her hair is VERY dry, it instantly made her her soft/soothed. But, i will see how her hair is tonight as the realy proof.

So, bre....how did it work for your daughter? Did you find it moisterizing enough and how long did it stay moisterized?

Come on girl...feedback, feedback...

 

[aja1121]

hmm... all of the ingredients look okay except for petrolatum... i read somewhere that petrolatum just coats the hair, kind of like saran wrap, and prevents moisture from getting into the shaft...

but all of these positive reviews are really making me want to give it a try...

i'm so confused!

Well petrolatum is mineral oil in solid form. Mineral Oil and Petrolatum will only be harmful if used alone. It would only coat or seal the ingredients listed before it.

Nice and Wavy you crazy girl Well, after two days of using this on her hair i think it is going to be a staple. Don't get me wrong, it's not like her hair is now smooth and moisturized as silk We got that skrong african hurr so it's on the dry/coarse side usually. But, i will say this, her hair has stayed MORE moisturized over two days using a few squirts of lotion than it has using ANY other leave in i have used on her hair. Her hair right now has other stuff in it since it hasn't been washed in about a week or so. I can't wait to wash her hair, use this then braid her hair upand see how it is a few days later. I think this is going to be a great product for her hair. I can't wait to use it in mine either. I will be cowashing tomorrow morning and using it too

Well, I'm glad you tried it and I can't wait until you see the difference after her hair is washed, conditioned. Don't be afraid to use a good amount in her hair...it won't do any harm. After you do her hair and yours, please let me know how you like it.

I was in BJ's last night and I saw that they have the 3 bottles plus a smaller bonus for $8.99. Now, that's a bargin!

That is a steal. Shoot my one bottle which is 24 oz was like $7.99. How long have you been using this method? Do you find over time that using lotion dry's the hair out or is it truly moisturizing?

I've been doing this for about 1 month and a half. It is not drying to my hair at all and it is truly moisturizing to my hair. I love it....!

I'm thinking about writing VICL and sending them this forum list so they can have an alternative way to market their product (now for hair).


And I'm naming you as the number one spokes person because you seem to be so happy about this stuff.

Me, I'm still giddy over the new Vaseline lotions product line.

The other thing about the lotion on the hair thing is that it is the only thing I can use on dry hair without it drying my hair out. If I put an oil or a butter or even spray my dry hair with a moisture mist, it will dry my hair out, but the lotion does not. Go figure! I haven't tried the Vaseline Intensive Care lotion, but use a cheap lotion from Maxway (with really great ingredients by the way as detailed in an earlier post in this thread) mixed with Fruit of the Earth lotion.

This is a great thread! Thanks for your posts, ladies. This is something I have plenty of around the house that I can use without having to buy anything new. I have been forever trying ot find a good leave-in and moisturizer for my hair. I hope this works for me, too! I'm conditioning today... (some Aussie deep with Silk Elements Mega Cholesterol under a plastic cap and a turbitwist)... but after I rinse tonight, I'll try a little lotion as a leave-in for my air dry.

I love you guys!

 

[thegirltolove]

I was just wondering if anyone noticed that the generic Walgreen's version has the EXACT ingredients in the same order as the Vaseline brand???? Just something I ran across today.....

Shoot, I even like to save money on the cheap stuff

 

[sxyhairfetish]

I know Im late but I tried as well and it works soooooooo good. I think Im leaving my garnier fructis leave in alone... it works great but, I experienced better moisture with this here Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion... Its cheaper and I get more for my money...

 

[pistachio]

to the OP:

I have nothing to add just wanna say that I love your siggy!! that hairstyle is too cute!!

 

[Babydall818]

OK thank you ladies!!! I don't clarify too much so I bought Suave Daily Clarifying poo. and condition after and it works for me!

I have to say that this lotion tip is like the best ever!!!

It leaves my hair moisturized, smelling good, and my ends are not breaking as much due to the moisture!!!

thanks

Oh I mix my VIC total moisture lotion with a lil bit of NTM silk touch leave in

 

[Vshanell]

I used some VIC lotion for my braid-out and wow....I'm sold! I have such nicely defined waves and my hair is so moisturized and soft. This is definitely a keeper. It's so liberating to know that I don't need all these fancy products now.

Oh you are huh?....well, ok I guess...just hoping they don't change their formula because I happen to love what they have right now for my hair...

I love this stuff. Ever since I have been using it, my hair seems to be alot thicker...I'm not kidding

But, lotion is the way to go for me....yep

How did your hair turn out after using it, Kimberly?

Yep, thanks to the OP for starting this thread. I've been all over this stuff ever since and it is the best thing that I use in my hair now, well...the best moisterizer!

Hi Pokahontas,

I'm so glad you like it too...this stuff is definately the best moisterizer yet for my hair. I know it made your hair look beautiful and feel wonderful.

The bad thing about this is that I take my hair out of my bun two or three times a day now because it is so soft and wavy. (I could actually just leave it down, which I could not do before unless I flat-ironed it, but the lotion just does something nice to it that leaves it wavy, soft and fluffy, but not not puffy/frizzy...) I take it down and keep running my hands through it and ultimately hand-in-hair disease and having to keep re-bunning is too much manipulation, but my hair is soooo soft, I just cannot help myself.

 

[RabiaElaine]

Someone told me about this thread, so I tried one squirt of the VIC on my hair about a week ago. My hair did feel extremely soft and moisturized for about 2 days. I haven't tried any since then, because I don't have a bottle of it myself.

This thread has sold me. I'm going to pick up a bottle tonight. I have been searching and searching for years now for a perfect moisturizer...this just might be it!

 

[SilentRuby]

My new staple...

It's all I use now along with castor oil
