IG Polisher Hair Gel, it pumps out like a mousse, This didn't do anything for my hair, I was a sucker cause it has aloe vera in it, and the aloe vera plant on the bottle. It just left it wet, and dried stiff but it didn't lay down. Hated IT.
 
I used Doo Gro to grow my edges back, after braids, i didn't have a problem with it. Well take that back, I used it on my scalp and it just made it itch. Then I bought the vitalizer and used on my scalp, it tingles and itch. So I just used it for edges purposely only.
 
Ladies, Ladies ...lolo I am at work while reading these post, and I think I am ready to p*ss my pants laughing so hard! Thank you all ladies for releaving my stress!!

Black Products huh???...<hummmmm.....>

Sorry, I laughed when I read this lol. Some products are just too good to be true. The name Doo Gro is quite dodgy for me as well, which is why I stay away from it.


I tried Pantene when I was younger. According to my mom it was the old natural/relaxed line. My hair was falling out faster than Donald Trump's. My cousin had long hair past her shoulders. When her mother switched her to Pantene, her hair broke off so badly. It's been like one inch in length and she's been struggling with braids for like a year or two, trying to regrow it. Boooo to Pantene :nono:

The Neutrogena Triple Moisture line. The products seems to leave the hair as soon as you rinse it out. The leave in never worked either, it left my hair dry.

I must agree. It did nothing for me.
Agreeing also on Motions Line, and regular suave shampoos and conditioners. My hair was like no way.
 
qhemet karkady tea replenishing mist
dries up kinda like a product w/ light hold, yet feels sticky. no actual moisture goin on.
 
Pink oil + shea butter = Miss Jessie's curly buttercream. Seriously, how can your hair be moist yet dry like hay at the same time? I know it works for some people but not moi.

Anything that requires a heavy shampoo (some cones, waxes) because most shampoo is horrific on my hair. :wallbash: Harsh shampoo shall not touch my tresses in 2010.

Dr. Miracle's whole line!!!! :nono: Its pure crap to me.

Pink Lotion...I dont know if this has worked for some people, but it REALLY makes my hair feel like sand paper. :wallbash:

I agree...I remember back in high school my friends and classmates swore by pink lotion. I admit i fell to the temptation of trying it. Lord knows when i first put that stuff in my hair,i washed that crap out with in a second. It felt greasy and wet at the same time. Oh and the Dr miracles burnt my scalp and cause me a lot of build up on my scalp and hair YUCK!!!
 
Years ago, I bought this "so called" moisturizer by Dark N Lovely... It left the nastiest film on my hair and it was crispy, greazy, stinky, just awfull!!!!! Until this day I have not encountered a product so awfull. And I Honestly think that it did not have anything to do with my hair type...There is no way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! anyone could have like that mess.
 
A few more products that so many people seem to live by:

Lacio Lacio Leave-In. Horrible for my hair. No matter how many times I give this an opportunity to work, the worse it gets.

Giovanni Direct Leave-In. Pure trash!!

Neutragena Triple Moisture. I know Sylver2 lives by this product, but it does nothing for my hair except make it hard and straw-like.

I've noticed a pattern here with these leave-ins and so-called "moisturizers". They all are water-based in one form or another. I've noticed that my hair prefers a butter-based moisturizer. No creams. No watery leave-ins. Hairveda's Green Tea Hair Butter is the best for me in terms of really penetrating my scalp and hair shaft and giving my hair the moisture that it desperately needs without weighing my fine strands down.
 
Now I luvs me some Sabino Moisture Block and I would recommend it to anyone who has issues with frizz. But they are not going to convince me that you can swim or shower with it and still not get frizz:nono:.

Also, I'm not buying that the black girl on the flat iron video is not relaxed. which I now can't find anywhere. :ohwell:
 
The Rio Hair system back in the day, although my hair didn't turn green it was clearly a waste of money and hair health

Almost all of the Black Hair care products geared for us in that small section of the store.

All of those Grow your hair fast products in the back of Black Hair care magazines... and I can say that because I have yet to meet anyone that swears by it.

Pantene, their entire line, LOL! I loved the smell but it never did anything for my hair ever.

See, this is how we know each head is different. Sabino is the DEVIL to me. It dried out and broke off my hair in 5 days. I had to deep condition and protein to save my poor strands.

OMG I totally agree! And I was soooo excited about it too. It IMMEDIATELY turned to dull, flyaway, straw city. :nono:
 
Yall have pretty much covered the heavy hitters:
Optimum in the yellow bottle- it took months to get back on track after that puke in a bottle they call moisturizer

Perm Repair- my hair came out in handfuls when I was 12

Kemi Oyl- sat on top of my hair

Pantene for black people, Pantene for white people, Pantene anything actually- I used that mess to wash my pug

White Rain conditioner- donated to the pug

WGO- wild growth lie

Proclaim- whackness in a bottle

Soft Sheen Carson Stay Strong Condish- followed up behind this with a dc and my hair laughed and then proceeded to imitate a board( hard and stick straight) I had to pour straight evoo on my head to be able to comb it.

Dr Miracles- Dr. Lie


What I haven't seen mentioned:

Surge- $5 water in a bottle

Sulphur 8 grease- had me walking around smelling myself for nothing

The relaxer kit at walmart that is two full applications in a box for $5-$6. The 1st time my hair was so underprocessed. 8 weeks later I used the other carton and my scalp was on fire( I NEVER burn) and my hair still looked a hot mess. The next day somebody asked me when I was going to stop stretching my relaxers for 6 months... I used a Mizani and had to correct over 16 weeks of new growth.
