Miss:

Needing to throw away my APB leave in spray and Oyin Hair Dew because the fragrances make my Mother in Law's allergies act up. She likes to spend time with me and I don't want her to feel limited in how much time she can spend with me because of what is in my hair. It's okay though, I have other Holy Grails :grin:.

That's Messed Up Ms. Doooo:nono:

Um..Yeah..:rolleyes: My current bottle is 4oz and I'm killin' it.:nono:

Jojoba they say is the closest to our own natural Sebum.

Good Stuff!:lick:

IDareT'sHair

I have the 4 oz too. I had been shying away from the jojoba oil because when my hair was shorter it seemed to make my hair feel greasy.


Now my hair loves it. It could be my new more humid environment. I checked out the price for the largest size of Now jojoba oil...it is not cheap :spinning::nono:! I am probably still going to go buy a larger size. I don't like rationing :lol:, and that is what always gets me in trouble.

As for me throwing away 2 of my leave ins. The thing is, family is the most important thing to me, so for me it was worth it :yep:.

Hit:

Blow drying with the Reniece method. Super quick and great results.

Kerastase Nutritive Masquintense. Super duper moisture that lasted after blow drying and the flat iron. Wish I took pictures. I slept on this stuff but it's worth every dang penny.

IC Fantastic straightening spray. The only spray heat protectant I tired that doesn't leave my hair dry and dull.

This wash day. Clearly!

Miss:
Kerastase Nutritive Masquintense fragrance. Super perfumy but the con does not outweigh the pros.
 
Hit: Locating the Manuka Honey Mask

It took three Targets but you know the PJ in me would not give up.

The smell is :drool:. I think I'm going back to get the shampoo.
 
HIT:
APB Moisturizing Conditioner in Honey Dew: Lovely scent, soft, supple hair.

Instant Hit

Not easily broken pomade
Love the texture, consistency and softness it provides to my hair and scalp.

Shea Moisture Manuka honey and marula conditioner--was just average after shampooing. It didn't provide me with enough moisture, slip etc. it's good as a cowash conditioner, my hair felt soft and manageable but I had to use a lot of it. I've only used it twice and my bottle is already half empty.

Sulfur 8 Aqua Blue shampoo--extremely drying and didn't help with my severe scalp itch.
 
Major HIT!!!
Aussie Moist (revisted) and Wetline Xtreme Gel (35.5 oz for $2.99!!!!!).

Best Freaking WnG I have ever had! 2nd day hair that is soft and pliable. Hair looks and feels like hair and not a helmet or a burning bush.

MISS
Every other gel I have ever tried. My pj-ism is officially over. :amen::thud:

Yes...Wetline gel is everything! Second only to my EcoStyler Clear Gel
 
HIT: Nutiva Vegan Super Food Shortnening.

It's a combination of palm oil, unrefined red palm oil and unrefined coconut oil for sealing.
 
Instant Hit

Redken Cleansing Cream
- Left my hair cleansed without feeling stripped

Shea Moisture Manuka Honey Masque
- Left my hair very soft & moisturized
 
HIT
Happy Nappy Honey's Knot Going Bananas- Love the light banana scent and the consistency. I've used this as a detangler and it did an excellent job :yep:! I also used it as a moisturizer and it got the job done. Next I will try it as a deep conditioner and at another time as a cowash. I :love: multi use products. They are especially helpful when traveling.
 
@Shay72

She said the 1st one came back empty.:look:

She was suppose to let me know 'why' the 2nd one was Returned (she never got back with me):look:

And.....

She was suppose to send me out some additional products (as a Test) to see what would happen and that also never happened.:look:

It's so strange because I ordered from her 3 times between BF & Christmas.:perplexed

Luckily for me, PayPal gave me a Full Refund.:yep:
 
Hit: naturelle grow chamomile and burdock deep conditioner. I was impressed by this stuff. Detangled, slipped and rinsed really well. Left my hair really soft for detangling, even after towel drying my hair for a hour.

The jury is still out on: Qhemet burdock root cream. The consistency is nice, pleasant smell and applies really well. No residue. I just need to to use a few more times to give a good review. I will say that my hair is not overly soft, feel just right, I can run my fingers through my hair and leaves the hair with a natural textures look (because it's not heavy).
 
Hits:

Perfect Blends Iced Coffee Cowash, soft supple hair
Bobeam Condish , awesome slip, soft, touchable hair
DIY Flaxseed gel, nice hold, great definition. Will be picking up more seeds to make my own consistently, might get some Xanthum gum to make it gummier.
