I used Soft and Beauitiful Extend a Perm and my hair loved this product...I need the "Hair GURU" to sign in and tell me what you guys think of this product...:grin:
 
Dark & Lovely Moisture Seal Deep Conditioner. It's cheap ($4) and it moisturizes and seals in moisture like nobody's business.


Okay, so I know I can easily find me some Dark & Lovely products :yep:...this sounds promising. So you don't seal with another oil when you use this? What are the ingredients?

:tch: well it didn't extend my perm! lol

i loved how lather-y the shampoo was, but the conditioner wasn't very moisturizing for me, and the "thermal straightening lotion" has so many bad ingredients in there... i'm never using it again.

plus it didn't get my hair any straighter than if i had used regular ol' shampoo, regular ol' conditioner, and a regular ol' heat protectant.

i'm surprised the stuff works for some people! :grin:
 
Tresemme Anti Breakage Condish: The stuff is the bomb! Period. I use it for Dry Condish and Co washes. This stuff has amazing slip, it doesn't make your hair too mushy like some conditioners, it detangles, it's creamy and rich, i don't care for the smell too much because it smells a little like candy (I hate sweets), but it makes my hair very strong and manageable. This is one of the best conditioners out there. Best part, large 32 oz bottle at walmart $3! So you know I got a stash already. It's one of my staples!

I love this stuff too it is my staple conditioner. i have found nothing like it.:yep:
 
French Perm Stabilizer Plus is the most amazing post-relaxer neutralizing conditioner!!!!!!!!!



My mom has been using it on me since I was a child and it's the only product she used on me that i have to have. I won't relax without it. It makes my relaxed hair silky, tangle free and happy. People be sleepin' on this but it is great!

You took me way back with this one. My mom used this in her salons when I was growing up. Oldie but goodie.
 
Sebastian Potion 9 wearable treatment. Most people have heard of potion 9 but not the wearable treatment.

my hair loves this stuff

I bought this...and i have FINALLY found my leave in! BUMP GIOVANNI:look:
Thank you forever! Now i have to get the bigger size:yep:

Activate hair repair- detangles like nobodys business. Unfortunately it can only be gotten online now. But it is still worth it
I bought this too. Still waiting for it to get here...the ingredients are sooo good that i am praying it will be another one of my staples,because it is so cheap compared to my staple dc's.

Taliah Waajid Black Earth African Healing Oyl
I swear this stuff really does heal your hair.

I bought this as well as the Black Earth braid spray and a shea butter spray that i found on the site where i found these products.:yep:
Thanks for these you guys! Crossing my fingers and hoping that they are as good to me as that Sebastian potion 9 wearable treatment!
 
Salon Exclusive Moistsilk conditioner- my old stylist used to use this. Its a creamy conditioner that used to give my hair so soft, like a fluffy pillow despite how much blowfrying my hair might have gone through. I just found a place that sells it so I plan on treating myself to a big container of it for Christmas.

hi there,

did you get a chance to purchase this? If so, could you post what's in this for me, please? This sounds like exactly what I am looking for in a co :yep::yep:

I found some small individual packs of protein by cabots, but I found it at Biglots for .50 and I just LOVE it! I've searched all over for it, but have been unable to find it anywhere :ohwell:. I'll keep searching Biglots, but so far, no luck :nono:.

I LOVE this product!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is hard to find. You can buy it from Ebay (although right now there is only one person selling 100 packs! :perplexed) or order it from cooperlabs.com.

I got some from biglots, like 10 packs. I went back only a week later and ALL WERE GONE! That's what I get for waiting. I have used these often in the past on my dry hair before shampooing. It always hooks my hair up nicely. Pure conditioning - no cones with Henna extract and protein. It is wonderful! I just hate that it is so hard to find though.
 
I second this with both hands. This is the best conditioner. Polly and Co has a big size (16 oz) for a very good price. And for me, this conditioner is worth every penny.

My little known gem is ICON Inner-home Moisture Mask - it's a deep conditioner that you really do have to use for at least 15 minutes and longer with heat is even better. This is super moisturizing giving soft, detangled, beautiful hair.


hi there newflowers,

can you post what's in this product for me, please? also, have you tried any of their other products and had success with them? If so, could you share your results? are their products all natural? Have you ever been to their salon? If so, how was it?

Peter Coppola Extreme Repair Double Latte Conditioner (with Soygen Complex). I know, I know long *** name, but it's truely heaven! I bought it in TJMaxx for $7.99 for 32oz pump bottle. Strenthens and softens my hair like nobody's business.

I went to TJMaxx today for the sole purpose of purchasing this :yep: but they did not have it :nono:. I purchased the daily conditioner instead for $9.99 each( I got the only two they had of course :rolleyes:).

ETA: can you post the ingredients for this co for me, please?

HoneyDew,

Can you post the ingredients for the packs, please? My sister needs a good protein treatment for her hair.

Coming out of lurkdom to add:
Shikai Amla conditioner! I purchased it at Vitamin Shoppe and am in total love with this stuff. I'm a natural with mostly 4a hair and this conditioner makes my hair feel uber soft and hydrated. I am going to try the shampoo next.

I'm sorry you didn't find any - I actually purchased mine way back in the summer and I wish I bought more now. Maybe you could try Marshall's, as sometimes they have the same stuff as TJMaxx. Here are the ingredients:

Thanks so much for letting me know where to purchase this. I'm going to check more Biglots before ordering any...the price on cooperlabs.com with shipping is triple what I would have to pay for one pac at Biglots. I didn't see any listed on eBay, they must have been won already:nono:.

ETA: I did find the seller that was selling 21 packs, but the shipping was too expensive, plus they were sending parcel post:ohwell:. Tomorrow is Family n Friends night at Biglots where those with a coupon get 20% off of the total purchase. I am so hoping they will have some Cabot's so I can buy up all they have:lachen:.

LOL That is great!

I like the hot oil treatment, too.

Someone at my Big Lots bought up ALL the Cabots. That is what I get. I picked up about 6 packs and went in a few days later to get more and they were GONE!

I would not buy them from CooperLabs. I just can't see paying that price. We will see. My hair was kinda dry after henna and the Cabots Protein put my hair back in order. It is protein, but it really does help my hair retain moisture. I think is has a perfect balance.

I wonder why it is so hard to find?

Well, I missed out on the Cabots, but I bought ALL of the Activate Hair repair. I am set for a year! LOL The check out lady said " Are you a hairdresser?" :lachen: I wanted to say "No, I am a PJ."
