I just went to TJ Maxx today to return some stuff... I got the Joico Moisture Recovery Conditioner since I liked the balm so much... I saw Shea Moisture there and was surprised. Never seen it there before.

@CodeRed That was the first time I've seen SM sold in there. I love TJmaxx when I'm in search of finding lower priced hair products OTG.

I tend to use new products right away, eager to see if I like it or not.

I decided to use as a deep conditioner rather than as a prepoo. It soaked nicely into damp hair. I let it sit for about 45 minutes under a plastic cap and turbie towel. It rinsed easily and my hair was soft. I had good slip, but not extraordinary.

I can tell it moisturized my hair as opposed to just sitting on it because my texture seemed spongy...not just slick. I finished with the usual leave-ins and now my hair is wrapped up. I look forward to taking it down tomorrow to see how it behaves for the day. So far I like it, but probably wouldn't repurchase without a discount/coupon of some kind.

My last hair product purchase for the year:

- 1 16.6 oz bottle of Pracaxi unrefined oil - I can't wait to use this oil. It was very expensive too. I bought it for extreme moisturizing and emolient properties to add to products with no slip.

- 1 16 oz bottle of Camellia oil

- 1 16 oz bottle of Meadowfoam Carrier oil

- 1 Hempseed Butter - 2.2lbs jar. I needed another butter badly. I will order more next year. I bought them from www.newdirectionsaromatics.com. I like this site so far. I bought quite a few fragrant oils for my diffuser as well. I love aromatherapy.

I'm looking to purchase some other butters like avocado butter, jojoba butter, murumuru butter, tucuma butter, cocoa butter, illipe butter, macadamia butter, and cupuacu butter.

I have my eyes on some essential oils as well, like geranium, more ylang ylang, bergamot, sandalwood, rosewood, lavender, lime, lemongrass, and rosemary.
