OCT- The whole system is still hitting.
ORS replenishing conditioner- one of the best conditioners period. I could kiss the chemist that made this

Herbal Essences Drama Clean shampoo- let my sister borrow my clarifing shampoo and I ended up needing to clarify. I hopped over to walgreens and got this for 4 bucks. Did a great job, smelled great, slight tingle, not too drying.
 
HITS:
  • BCing and WNGs - yesssss! can you say summer staple?! (the style, not BCing...lol)
  • leaving all the conditioner in - cant say enough good things about this one!
  • suave tropical coconut conditioner - giving my VO5 a run for its money...
  • shower comb - i lost NO HAIR AT ALL when i detangled.
  • airdrying - especially while sitting under a ceiling fan!

my BIG FAT MISS is ojon restorative treatment: i put it on and put a plastic cap on and leave it on all night while i sleep. in the morning my hair feels soooooooo soft and moist but as soon as the water hits it its a tangled mess. when i shampoo its a tangled mess. when i slather it with conditioner i lost like 30 strands and thats not normall for me. even after i deep conditioned over night with aveda brilliant my hair just was not the same. and the smell is:nono:.

Hits:grin:

lottabody Tress Tranzitions 4 in 1 Shampoo

Cleanse, condition and detangle. Protects your hair against thermal stress caused by hair dryers, flat irons, hot rollers and more. Get clean, conditioned, healthy hair in one step. Great for use before blow dryers and other heated styling tools.

Sensitive By Nature Extensive Moisturizer Deep Penetrating Treatment 8DISCONTINUED:wallbash:
 


I don't know if you guys have The Body Shop in the US:look: But I went on a shopping trip and bought stuff that I don't need for the sake of it. I came across this leave in conditioner which contains Amilka (some Indian berry used for conditioning) and was not expecting it to work with my napps but it does:grin:

Leaves hair very, very soft for a few days. Easy to detangle. Reminds me of scurl consistency without leaving the hair feeling soggy, Scurl makes my hair break off but this doesn't.

Misses:

At the moment Mega Tek, it works but I couldn't take having dry hair:perplexed

I LOVE this stuff! It is the best Leave-in I've ever used! It is the only Leave-in that keeps my ends very hydrated w/o the need for oil! I plan to stock up when it goes on sale! The funny thing is, I had no intentions of buying when I went to Trade Secrets. The sales girl recommended it to me but I declined. Then at the last minute, I ran back to the shelf, read the ingredients and then said 'what the heck, it won't hurt to try' and now I am soo glad that I did!

:lick:Revisited HIT:

Vatika oil - I'm not sure why I stopped using this stuff, but it is amazing for my scalp and my NG feels like cotton. Also it's not as heavy as WGO which also makes my NG feel nice.

:yep:NEW HIT:

Nexxus sublime volume and Hydra sleek Conditioner- Can you say BUTTER---I co-washed with these conditioners and my hair was smooth, smooth, smooth.

Devacurl OneC - I used this as a deep conditioner last Wednesday with great results.

:ohwell:On the FENCE:

Devacurl No Poo- I revisited this product after having such success with OneC, well I liked it one day and the next time I used it...it was just Okay! I'm still not sure about this one!!!

:wallbash:MISS CITY

Nexxus Sleektress Shampoo- This poo was very harsh and stripping on my hair. However, Im not a poo person anyway so I was not expecting much!
