CON is the greatest isn't it? I'm partial to the green and white label though (Ultra Moisturizing).
I love coconut and castor oil as well.
Daughter said:Ooh I haven't noticed the green and white label CON!!! What's the difference?

Currently CO wash every three days, alternating b/w Humecto and Humectress with heat. Learning to stretch relaxers to every 9 weeks +. My hair loves WGO and castor oil!

MonaLisa said:if there has been a thread on this prior (hard to do a search on).
I just wanted to ask this because, although I have some hair idols...their hair isn't that close to mine (with the exception of the ultimate 4a/b idol AJamerican Diva) -- until I thoroughly examined Babygurl's album and was like wow...I can relate to her hair...and she has really inspired me in terms of me making progress as well. I also check mrslee..cause the things her hair likes, mine does as well.
I figure we can learn from each other...I know...things respond differently sometimes to different heads...but then again...sometimes they don't!
I'll start it off...I'm 4a/b...sometimes...it gets more A than b...but dat b is definitely up in there...
My hair is down with:
Poos: Keracare Detangling/CON/NTM
Conditioners:
Moisturizing - Keracare Humecto (tub); NTM; (contemplating Salerm WG Mask based on mrslee's continued results)
Protein - ManeNTail/Aubrey Organics GPB/UBH
Heavy Protein Treatment- Aphoghee (decided to stick with it, it works, smell doesn't bother me at all)
Conditioners for CO Washes/PrePoo Treatments: Suave Milk & Honey, Suave Humectant, White Rain, VO5
Moisturizers: Elasta QP Mango Butter; Surge Woojee; BB Castor Oil and Aloe;
Coconut Softee (thanks to Kitchentician); WGO
Leave-In: NTM Silk Touch
Serum: NTM
I'll Surge when I can remember. Will slap castor oil, coconut oil, profective healthy ends or one of my moisturizers on to protect my ends.
Currently rocking a quick weave as protective style for the winter, if not wearing my own hair out.

I'm 4a...some of them want to be 3c sometimes but I digress.
Right now I am dealing with:
Poo: CON
Conditioner: Awapuhi (Suave brand) or Aussie 3 minute miracle
Leave in: CHOLESTEROL for deep and for regular washing Infusium
Moisturizer: Africa's Best Herbal oil
This may change slightly- want to try Olive and jojoba oils as well as shea butter.
I'll be taking length shots soon to add to my album.
What is evoo?
