Any alternatives to My HoneyChild Type 4 Hair Creme?

So did some twists and did an experiment using all of the various butters, cremes under a leave-in to see what happened. My Honey Child Type 4 just blew everything out of the water.

I got My Honey Child Type 4 on sale at CurlMart, but $25 is $$$$ for me and a hair product. ANY alternatives to the madness?

I want a thick, oil-based moisturizer that can act as a sealant but has moisturizing properties. No glycerin since it's a no for my hair in the winter.
 
You could 'contact' them and ask if they ever stock it. Have you tried the Honey Hair Creme?

It is also a thick Hair Creme.

I haven't tried that one! I'll look it up, thank you! I try not to go crazy with my purchases. I probably have dropped like $200 on stuff in the last two months alone :nono:
 
I know BeyonceCarter was just sent this by mistake. She could give you a description.

I've had the Honey Hair Creme before and it is a very thick creme and I'm sure very close to the Type 4 creme.

I think it would be worth the $5.00.

It's a very thick BUTTER. Like shea butter mixed with a few oils.

Smells good though.
 
I mean, just to point this out...if you find a cheaper alternative that works as well-great. But I find her hair creams to be SO THICK that you literally only need teeny tiny dabs and those jars last a LONG time. Like I have the...type three creme I think. Have mercy that stuff is thick!

Now it's that cheaper stuff that I run through and have to replace more quickly, and in the end I could have just spent the $25 by the time I pay for multiple jars of the other stuff.

Yeah, I know... once you find a product that works, why find something else... but I'm really trying to keep my costs low this year. Plus, I'm tired of shelling out $$$ for products. I'm willing to pay about $15 for a product if it's good, but $25 is a grip for some hair creme. I would wait for a sale or something :drunk:.


On another note, I'm not too crazy about the mint smell so that's another reason why. I like smelling delicious :look: (coconut, vanilla, etc). Not super important... but would be nice to improve on that. I absolutely HATE mint. Reminds me of my mother's hair oils, gag.

hmmmm....what else works that's around $15.....thinking thinking...dang found one but you said no glycerin....

her whipped shea butter creme comes unscented and in strawberry. 16 oz is $13.50

GAH you said no butters!

oh girl...I don't know lol I don't know of any inexpensive hair cream that's going to give you the bang for your buck with no glycerin.

Oh and...well, oil-based isn't really going to moisturize. You would have to put something underneath and use the oil-based thing on top to seal. In which case...you can just use a regular hair cream and seal with an oil.

Because for something to be oil-based I'm going to assume that it's just something that's been thickened with an emulsifier, which is just a thinner version of a hair butter.

Interesting. I'm not a fan of butters though. It feels like everything that I try has too much shea in them and my hair says :nono2: to shea. Have to check the ingredients.

LOL, good effort though :lol: Thank ya kindly

Nah, I'm using the oil based creme as a sealant. I'm using a leave-in already as a moisturizer. I've tried butters on top of leave-ins with the twists and they just don't have the same effect as My Honey Child.

About the idea of using a regular hair cream and seal with an oil.... Been there, done that... I don't like it. It doesn't have the same effect. I don't know how to describe it. The oil makes my hair feel greasier. I use castor oil since all other oils are just womp womp (coconut, olive oil... I can't even begin to say how much I do not like shea butter).

My hair is so finicky, SMH. I have the conditioners and shampoos down fine. It's always been the leave-ins and dealing with dry hair that kills my swag.
 
greight, I applaud you for your search and hope someone can help. But can I just take the thread off course to ask for a pick of you with my honey child? I have type 4 hair and I'd love to see why you're so adament about using it as the number one product. Because I haven't found the product for twist outs and thingsof this sort.

Please if you have a pic of a style, let me see it!

And onward with your search, carry on all (sorry to take the thread off course trying to steer it back:yep:)
