[Healthb4Length]

Opps! I forgot to mention the BEST HIT of all!

http://www.qvc.com/scripts/reference.pl?ref=L04&item=A80462


Tassi keep hair outta there! THey work wonderful for when I'm washing my face and don't want my hair to get wet or putting on make-up etc.

 

[Extremus]

Hit:

(just the conditioner- OMG! Slip is off the chain w/ V05!!! )

why'd it take me so long to try this?

On the fence (probably used to much):

 

[Jetblackhair]

Hits:
Sabino Moisture Block
End All Hair Balm

Miss:
Kenra MC - Was not moisturizing enough for my hair.

Continued hits:
Whipped Baggy Cream by Hairveda
NTM Silk Touch Leave-In
Mega Care Shea Butter Oil

 

[Aggie]

I'm back to update:

Mega Hit:
Mega Tek Cell rebuilder, Eqyss Premier Botanical Shampoo, Eqyss Creme Rinse, Eqyss Survivor Detangler, and Eqyss Rehydrant Spray.

The Miss here is :
Eqyss Avocado Mist - made my hair very dull looking and dry - YUCK!!!

More Hits:

These conditioners are sooooo yummy especially in my ayurveda co-washes, YUM YUM!!!

There are some Hits and Misses in this next photo:

I like all the Roux products here - the Porosity Control poo and con and the 5 in 1 poo, these make my hair detangle like a breeze. I also like the Elucence moisture benefits poo and clarifying poo.

Now the Misses here are:
Elucence moisture balancing conditioner and treatment.

Additional Hits:

Everything ayurveda for me especially my fenugreek seed powder (provided loads and loads of slip as a tea rinse), but except the aritha powder - I know it's clarifying but I found it a little too drying for my fine hair. I will continue to use it but sparingly.

 

[LikeNoOther]

Nothing NEW as I'm on a consistent regimen; but I have three levels of hits

Hit -
Keracare Humecto TUB - Yes, it is better than the bottle. Its not that it detangles better; but I do feel it moisturizes better. The last few bottles of Humecto that I purchased were the same consistency as my Hydrating Detangling shampoo. The tub is glorious

Continued Hit -
Keracare Silken Seal - Hands down THE BEST silicone serum ever. Continues to give that 'fresh from the salon look' no matter what format you use it in (i.e. blowdry, wrap). Light, bouncy, full, shiny hair!!! :notworthy


Revisited Hit -
Ojon Restorative treatment - I've began using this as a pre-poo to my weekly wash, and I'm loving it again. Last night I slept in it (not on purpose; I got lazy ). My hair is so shiny and light today. And my 6 wks post roots are laying down nicely. I use alot less now than is recommended, and I find it works better for me this way

NO misses!

 

[Namilani]

Daaaaannnng, Aggie! What hours are your store open ?

What do you do with your honey powder (I think that's the white substance in the FNWL baggie)? And where do you get those big 'ole bottles of Tresemme? I don't even use the stuff, but if I can buy it in bulk like that, I may. I also used it on my 4-yr-old about 2.5 years ago with nice results. And when her daddy wants his hair washed thinking I'mma use my Mizani, I can whip this out! TIA!

Girl you are too funy, lol. The white powder is actually Citric Acid that I use to restore the pH of my hair and soften it enough for detangling as well. I have more info on it in my fotki along with the recpe I use.

Now as far as the large Tresemmes - I bought those right here locally in the Bahamas. I noticed that many of our bss stores have them. I really like all the Tresemme conditioners I have in the pics here. They respond well when mixed with ayurveda or as co-wash conditioners. You know what they are so thick I think I will try them as a DC and see how my hair likes it that way. If it doesn't then it will be back to co-washing with them. HTH.

Girl Tee this is nothing, you should checkout my fotki's products section. I did hits and misses on most or all of them in past months.

 

[Britt]

Hit:
Giovanni Smooth as Silk conditioner.
It's moisturizing and detangling. I'm really loving their conditioners. I love this one, the 50/50, the Magnetic conditioner, and I the leave in.

 

[morehairplease]

Aggie where did you purchase the big sized tresemme conditioners?

 

[clever]

Chi silk infusion
mango butter

How did I sleep on these products?!?

 

[chebaby]

OMG let me tell yall. the bumble and bumble aloejoba is the best conditioner i have ever used. i co washed this morning with PM the detaingler and my hair was still a little tangled. i put the aloejoba on my hair and i swear my hands glided through like nobodies bidness. this is a keeper but i will only use it once in a while because that little bottle is sooooooo expensive.

chi silk infussion
and my new FHI heat technique

both major hits

 

[BrownBetty]

Hit:

Aloe Vera oil - this stuff is so good. My hair stays moist and not greasy.

 

[Healthb4Length]

Hits

Hard Mesh Rollers--cumbersome to use but gives nice smooth results and my hair dried in 40 minutes instead of 1 hour like with magnetic rollers. BTW it helped smooth out my NG!

Lacio-Lacio for rollersetting--This was horrible on my texturized hair but great for relaxed hair. It helped me rollerset and gave a nice bouncy curl.

John Freida Clear Glaze--gave me out of this world shine!!!

Keracare shampoo for color treated hair--nice slip, detangling and softness! Worth it!

Aubreys' Blue Green Algae Mask--nice for pre-poo treatment, made my hair feel soft yet strong.

Still loving--Shescentit's fortifying mask--it's all that and a bag of chips

 

[chinadoll]

Hits:

VO5 moisture milks line
BB Oil Moisturizer Hair Lotion w/ Castor oil and Aloe ( I was using this product every once and a while, and I used it this morning and blow dried my hair. I LOVE this product, my hair came out like I just relaxed it, and I'm almost 3 months post)
