Hit
Soultanicals Knot Sauce. Works very well on dry hair. 2 hours later my hair is still soft.

Mixed bag : We all want quick growth but I did henna less than two weeks ago. I already have an eighth of an inch showing of new growth with minoxidil.

It's going to be a fight to keep my henna color on my hair.

Hit: putting on leave in conditioner while in the shower

Komaza protein conditioner. Finally my breakage is less!

Miss
NJoy leave-in. Watery not a cream more like thin milk.. Product should be in bottle with a squirt spout because it runs out of my hand.No slip. Made my hair feel sticky with limited moisture. Not a repurchase. I may just throw it away.

So far, the 3 row curl comb has been a hit! Better curl definition and softer curls. I'm very pleased with it. I'll post the link in case anyone is interested.

I thought I was a reformed PJ, by the looks of it, I've fallen right back into that lane! I've ordered a couple of new products this week, I still have my haul from last month that I haven't touched yet. There may well be more updates this month.

I was enquiring about this brand in another thread yesterday. Good to know.

Sorry to hear it didn't work for you, her products usually get great reviews. She's one of the OG's and has contributed so much to this board,. However ,I haven't tried any of her products so, I can't speak on them.

Instead of throwing it away, why not get on the product exchange thread and swap it it for something you might like or want to try?

ETA: The end of my sentence

Really enjoyed the Eliza vecca cer-100 treatment. It seems to have all my favorite ingredients in one bottle (amodimethicone , ceramides and amino acids). For less than 10$, I might stock up on another 5 after I try it a few more times.

Continued hits:
Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate pre-shampoo intensive treatment, shampoo, 5 minute liquid mask, leave-in


Possible hits:
Fanola Smooth Care Straightening Mask

IGK Good Behavior Spirulina Protein Anti-Frizz Smoothing Blowout Balm


I used the Redken ABC system for my wash day yesterday and followed the 5 minute mask with the Fanola mask. I used the IGK Good Behavior after the Redken leave-in. I straightened my hair with my Revair. This is the softest my hair has ever felt using my Revair. Normally it feels pretty good but I definitely noticed a difference in softness.

Hits :
Verb Ghost Exfoliating Scalp Nectar - this definitely helps lift any build up of cream I used on my scalp during the week. It smells great and it's gentle but thorough. It seems to make the clarifying shampoo work even better.

 

[mzteaze]

Miss (Maybe):

Nutrafol - It felt like it was working (maybe a bit of placebo effect though). But a big downside is the 4 capsules you need to take daily. If you hate swallowing a number of pills, it's tough. However, the biggest con was the potential for interference with your blood work. It was recommended twice in last few months that I cycle off of Nutrafol, so out of caution, I moved to another vitamin.

@mzteaze
On Nutrafol. Thank you for posting this.

I've always looked at it, but never purchased. Thank you for saving me some

 

[Angel of the North]

Hit: Cantu curl defining brush. It has longer, more spiky teeth than the bounce/bounce dupes Curl brushes. Left hair looking less frizzy, not as much shrinkage.
