[Wildchild453]

Hit: Millenia Mud Reconstructor - It left my hair feeling very strong. I love it, now I can henna less.

Miss: Sheamoisture Raw Shea Deep Moisture Masque - I don't know who's hair is suppose to be enjoying deep moisture but mine sure wasn't. I've never had my hair feel that dry after using a DC.

MISS:
Crisco as a sealant. I really wanted it to work but I tried mixing it with oils, on its own..nope. Leaves my hair feeling stiff and sticky just like how shea butter did.

Hit- Cream of Nature with Argan Oil conditioning treatment

 

[beautyaddict1913]

This is one of my fave threads....I don't remember participating in January, so here goes mine for this month and last:

Hits:
Qhemet CTDG - my new staple! I luv luv luv it! Best detangler ever, I want to marry it!
Donna Marie Dream Curling Cream - staple! Im going to have to see if its better than KCCC!

On the fence:
Donna Marie Coco Hemp Curly Buttermilk - worked great in combo with the curl cream & coconut pomade but I need to try it on its own.
Donna Marie coconut pomade - this works in several ways, but the smell lingers and its not my fave scent...I really have nothing else to compare it to since this is the first pomade that I have used, but I want to try Oyin's then I will know for sure

Miss:
HE LTR - Im going to use this up, under Miss Jessie's curl creams but I won't repurchase, it makes my hair dry...my hair really hates most cones!

Can you tell me if the Curl Junkie Repair me a hard or mild protein and how did you like it? Also the Oyin Juices and Berries what do you use it for? Is it greasy? The Oyin Whipped Pudding do you use this as a moisturizer or as a styling cream? How do you like it?

 

[Vonnieluvs08]

Hits:

HOT on damp hair

Miss
Christine Grant Babassu DC-too watery for my taste and didn't wow my hair.

You didn't ask me but I use it on wet hair as a leave in/spray moisturizer. I also use it to refresh dry hair. It is not greasy at all. It can be a little sticky but to me that is an indication you used too much.

 

[biancaelyse]

Another Hit:

Eco Styler Moroccan Oil Gel

It's good but I'm not sure if I like it as well as the Olive Oil one. I think it has more crunch and possibly it flakes more. We'll see. It was definitely worth the $2.99 sale price though.

 

[ms-gg]

Hits:

Oyin Burnt Sugar Pomade
Hairveda Whipped Ends


I have been testing these for a while and I think they will be a keeper in at least my winter regimen

I know, right? I can buy Sunshine without any penalty in the No Buy bc I listed it as a staple .

I just finished an 8oz today. I have 2 more left, and I use it everyday so they won't last that long.
