[IDareT'sHair]

Miss:

Sitrinillah Deep Conditioner

! Please give me details....................

 

[Charz]

! Please give me details....................

I Deep Conditioned for two hours with this stuff. When I rinsed it off, it felt like I just co-washed, not deep conditioned. After looking after looking at the ingredients I know why..........

Also I actually like the Moist 24/7 for co-washing. The ingredients between this and the Deep Conditioner are very similar...

Yea, this was a rave on here some years back Glad you found it.

I've seen it talked about off and on since I've been here but I think it was super popular before I came. I know Irresistible still uses it though. It really is a great comb and I'm super happy I found it. My scalp feels so good when I use it to massage.

Hits:
Henna Gloss. Did one for the first time today- my hair is so soft, shiny and moisturized.

100% pure Montana Emu Oil. I use this primarily on my skin and it is so amazing. I had severly chapped lips- the emu cleared it up with two applications. The dog had a weeping rash- the emu cleared it up with one application!!!

 

[Brownie518]

Mizani Thermasmooth shampoo - a hit so far. I used it twice this week and the results were nice. Very smooth hair. It looked great!

 

[Junebug D]

Hit:

Kenra Dandruff Shampoo: I was finally able to go a whole week between shampoos for the first time in months. NO funky scalp smell after 7 whole days! :woohoo: There's still itching and flaking, but they are back to baseline after that Neutrogena T-Sal made everything worse.

Miss:
Joico K Pak Intense Hydrator...only because I like protein that also moisturizes and this ain't it for me.

Hit:
Kiss Express Semi Color...Colourshines is going in the garbage

I don't think that the bolded is an actual protein treatment but a nourisher. It balances well when used after the k-pak reconstructing deep treatment or the k-pak reconstructing conditioner.

I'm interested in this. Where did you get it?

Another HIT:

Beer rinses
My home made beer shampoo - these both leave my hair soft, full-looking, and shiny.
Molasses and conditioner pre-poos - makes my hair feel stronger.
Rosemary, sage, basil and thyme rinses - healthy, shiny hair results

MISS:

Conditioning my hair with whole eggs - this process left my hair wayyy too hard. I will try the yolk only mixed with honey next time and see what happens.

Maybe I'll keep it on hand and try again.

 

[LongHairNWaiting]

Hits for me:
SUAVE HUMECTANT CONDITIONER

These two items ladies have saved my hair for DRIEST OF THE MONTH AWARD!...lol I'm loving~loving~loving them. Whether I co-wash every day, or every other day....I am absolutely loving them. And it has "simplified" my reggie. I am sooooo sick of buying products and nothing working...dang!

Ok <Joan Rivers> can we talk????? *whew* (had to get that out)

[MissLawyerLady]

I'm interested in this. Where did you get it?

I got mine at a local health food store. However, the website is www.montanaemuranch.com. I really love it.

 

[La Colocha]

Hit: S-curl (blue and white) I love the smell and it moisturizes my hair really well. I also love it for detangling. This is going to be my staple moisturizer.

 

[Buttercreme]

Hit: Paul Mitchell moisturizer

Been using it every nite. Hair is always soft, moist, dark and shiny. No need to flat-iron or blowdry after wash/DC. Wish I would have bought it sooner.

 

[quasimodi]

[chebaby]

hit: elasta qp feels like silk. today is the first time i've used it and i think i love it. i hate gells but i really like this so far. my hair is soft and it has so much shine. i used kbb hair milk and coconut oil under it because i didnt know if it would make my hair crunchy or not. my hair feels great.

 

[shtow]

BIG HIT- Rite Aid's T gel shampoo (knockoff). I went a week without washing my hair with no flakes or bloody scalp, ladies!!!! (Never happens). This is surprisingly a lot less drying than a lot of my moisturizing poos. What I do is I wet my hair, lather with it, scrub, let sit 5 minutes, scrub, rinse. Go about my regimen. I am so happy, you ladies have no idea!! Eczema is no joke.... And whats crazy, is the real version- Neutrogena - did NADA for my scalp.

 

[Beautyangel]

Huge hits:
-Melted pure shea butter in DCs concoctions!!!
-Rusk sensories smoother leave in! Thanx Sylver2!!!
-Back to wash only once a week! What was i thinking with my fine strands?
-At One sensitive scalp relaxer: YAY!!!!

 

[Kellum]

I got another hit. I used VO5 Moisture Milk Conditioner as my moisturizer and then sealed yesterday. OMG this stuff is great. I read of people doing this but never did. I'm hooked now.
