<ul type="square"> [*]Motions Moisture Plus conditioner (thank you Peachtree and Supergirl!) [*]Kenra Intensive Emollient conditioner [*]Last but not least, L'Oreal Nature's Therapy Curl Defining Cream - I like this one because it has given definition to this amorphous, almost-frizz, not straight/not coily/not wavy portion of my newly "relaxed" hair.
It does what it says.
The Curl Defining Cream has the same thick, creamy consistency as L'Oreal Unfrizz Taming Creme and no noticeable smell (to me). I glopped it on my dripping wet hair to air dry, and it immediately soaked in. I combed my hair with my seamless "bone" resin comb to insure the product distributed more or less evenly through all of my hair and then left it alone. My hair had definition while it was still in that wet-not-quite-damp stage but retained the same defintion after my hair had completely dried...which isn't bad since I now (yay!) have thick hair. Many products I have tried in the past make my hair look good while drying but don't work as well once my hair is dry (I have found this especially with hair gel mixed with leave-ins...makes my hair look and feel crunchy).
It gave me the loosely-curled, wavy hair that I had hoped for (but repeatedly did not experience) with John Frieda's RELAX product, "Ripple Effect, Wave Maker" which not only failed to make waves but also dried my hair out to the point of feeling like straw.
By comparison, L'Oreal's Curl Define Cream, left my hair still feeling moisturized after a hot (to me, that's 80 degrees farenheit or above) and windy day.
It costs the same as the Taming Creme, and is the same size. I can see myself going through the tube quickly if I continue to CW frequently. Because of that, I will either return to mixing Blackstrap Molasses into my conditioners (similar frizz-busting effect, yummier smell - like ginger snap cookies
), or I will try out one of the cheap brand knock offs of John Paul Mitchell's The Conditioner. I would use the Curl Defining Creme again but for the price. [/list]
