CD healthy hair butter

[felicia]

is this a good enough mositurizer to use alone on dry hair? or is this only good for sealing in moisture? i'm trying to cut back on buying products and i'd like to use this up
thanks

I know hairlove recently stopped using it becasue of the buildup from the beeswax, but she still uses the hairmilk

its hard to spread on dry relaxed hair

I think it is hard to spread period. I would only use it on twists. I don't know if you are relaxed or natural but I would suggest something else.

I have review for it. I'll try to post the link.

Carol's Daughter Healthy Hair Butter: This comes in a neat little glass jar. It's white, thickly creamy (even if you go to take off a little, you get just a tiny bit more than you bargained for). On dry hair, as well as on wet hair, it's a little difficult to spread around due to the wax. You may have to rub some together in your hands, first, before applying it to your hair.

After adding the HM to my damp hair, I put it in a ponytail and then twisted the hair around to make a column. As I twisted, I put HHB on my ponytail starting from the top and going down to the ends. My hair was moist, soft and shiny.

This morning when I took down my bun, my hair was still mildly damp and slightly less moisturized than the day before, but no less soft.

Complaints: The smell!

The Verdict: 6 out of 10
I will definitely use this in my regimen to moisturize my ends. I even put some on the canopy where the HM had lost its moisture and now it's soft and moisturized again. Even though my hair doesn't have many (sometimes if any) fly-aways, it will keep the few that I do have down. In this way, it is reminiscent of Wanakee's Hairline cream, in that it will tame frizzies and fly-aways on the canopy.

I would definitely say that if you're going to use this product to use it on wet hair! I never had a problem with spreading it like some others have mentioned. I have not used it in about 3 weeks b/c it seemed to be making my hair hard. I am sure I will use what I have left at some point though.

I dont think I would use HHB on dry hair. I use it only on wet hair and only when I have a lot of new growth. Ive recently stopped using it as much because I realized that mango butter does the same job but without all the buildup. When I want the extra oil I use the HHB.

Ok...I wanna hear some more about this...I have an 8 oz jar coming this week and I want to know what to expect.

For those that had a problem with build up...how often did you wash your hair when using this?

I condition wash 3-4 times a week and do a clarifying wash once a week...should I expect the same problem?

I also use shea butter to twist my hair. I was planning on using CDHB the same way. Will it work for that?

i used the CD HHB, i just had a 4 oz. jar that lasted me all of 2 months since my hair just drank up the product.

i didn't find it all that hard to spread on natural hair. i would ALWAYS rub it around a little bit on my palms before applying it to my hair though. i washed my hair about once a week when i used this product. you should be fine.

i used the CD HHB for twists a time or two. it worked fine.
