Hit:

-ORS chelating poo
-Elasta QP silk thermal desiging liquid
- hot oil treatment using jojoba, rosemary,and peppermint oil mixture
 
Hits:
Cristophe Purely Natural Clarifying poo- this stuff is great and sulfate free too, I just found my new clarfier :yep:
Jason Color Enhancing Shampoo for Black Hair- I like that this is also sulfate free and inky black to enhance dark tones, plus it doesn't stain hands, the only minus is it doesn't provide slip
Nature's Gate Jojoba conditioner- truly amazing, this gives so much slip, it's insane, love it, this is going to be a staple too, I can tell. :grin:

Misses:
none
 
French Perm Stabilizer Plus ! It's too good to be true!
Someone on the board recommended this product for detangeling; it's a keeper!
I'm glad to hear this because I just bought this but I haven't used it yet because my hair is still braided. I know I'm gonna be all over it when I take these braids down. Can't wait.
 
Okay I couldn't post anythingf for this month because my hair is in braids, not that I haven't bought any new products to try. But I decided I was gonna come in and just peek at what some of the hits and misses are for this month and now I regret having done so because I see products like Aveda DR RC....'detangles, smells good' and DE stimulations MC....'it tingles', and Nature's Gate Jojoba Conditioner....'much slip'.

Why oh why did I come in here:wallbash:? Now the PJ in me is stirred up again and wanting all these wonderful products and it completely dissolves what little self-control I have. You know I did have it under control for all of 3 weeks:yep:, so proud of myself. And don't you just hate it when you see so many hits and virtually no misses? Doesn't it just make it so much harder?

HD - It would be nice if they had a matching shampoo!!! :yep:

CrumblingImages - I love the Hydratherma products!!! They smell AWESOME :love:!!! The conditioner gives great slip and leaves me with that strong/soft feeling. The moisturizer makes my hair so incredibly soft, and you only need a little. I'm pleased so far! :D
 
There was no shampoo though. :look: They need to go ahead and make a sulfate free shampoo and I will be good to go.

They do have the shampoo to match both the Refresh and Nourish Spa conditioner. I bought them at Trader Joe's but they were not very gentle on my hair at all. They felt more like clarifying shampoos.:ohwell:

I agree. I use the nourishspa shampoo to wash my makeup brushes.
