I need recs for Qhemet and Jane Carter!

[vevster]

I want to get a couple products from each line...

My hair is relaxed, fine about 3C and I have tried My Honey Child's Sweet Almond Hair milk and it is too watery and does nothing for my ends.

My Honey Child's aloe leave in did nothing after her Island shampoo left my hair w/ no oils at all...

So far I'm getting

1. Jane Carter's shampoo

I need a good detangler and someting heavier for ends..

Help!!!

You may not want to try Qhemet Biologics if you have relaxed hair. That product line seems to work best for those who are naturals. I am transitioning and the Heavy Cream does nothing for my relaxed ends. On the other hand, my new growth is in with that stuff!! I have never had anything such a luxury for my new growth and scalp before. But then again, this is just my opinion. You could try it on your relaxed hair but just judging from experience and from those on LHCF who have tried it, the majority who benifit most from it are those who are natural. HTH

I'm texturized and my hair loves it! My relaxed parts respond just as quickly as the new growth. I'd say the get Amla & Olive Heavy Cream and the Detangling Conditioner from Qhemet and Nourish and Shine from Jane.

I'm texturized and it works well for my hair. Since you said that your hair is a fine 3c texture maybe you should try the Sidr Butter cream, it's the lite version of the Alma and Olive creme.

I have to disagree. I'm relaxed, and I simply LOVE Qhemet's Olive Detangling Cream and their Amla & Olive heavy cream.

My hair is relaxed and is madly in love with the Alma & Olive Heavy Cream. It makes my hair especially soft after it has already been flat ironed.

Thanks ladies! I'm ordering from curlmart.com today!

The Sidr Tree butter has been great for my ends!

These would be my picks though I've never tried ther detangler on my relaxed head. It works for my daughter's natural hair though.

If I get the Sidr Butter, do I need the Nourish and Shine? How are they different?

I am not sure Vev. I don't have the Noursih and shine so I can't give you a comparison. I am pretty sure though from other reviews I have seen on the board that the consistency is different. The Sidr Tree butter feels like custard.

I'm currently using the Qhemet Alma & Olive Heavy Cream on my scalp and especially on my hairline to thicken it up. I really do like it, but if you're gonna use it on the length of your hair, then try not to use a heavy hand with it.

The Jane Carter Nourish & Shine is quite lovely too. It's great at moisturizing, and a little goes a long way. If you're gonna order it during these hot summer months then be aware that it could melt during shipping, and be careful when screwing off the lid because it could spill since it's been melted (I've experienced this).

When Shea Butter and Shea Butter based products (Nourish & Shine) are heated and cooled improperly then the product may turn grainy. This has happened to me twice with shea butter products. It in no way changes the effectiveness of the product, but it can be annoying to have to rub extra hard between your palms to get the grains to melt. To fix this problem, I put my Nourish & Shine in the microwave for about 45 seconds until it melted COMPLETELY. I then sat it in the fridge for about an hour so that it could cool and harden. I took it out and sat it in my closet overnight, and the next morning, it looked fine...no graininess. If you decide to order this product during the hot months, then I hope this bit of info helps .

Jan carter's hair nourishing cream is wonderful. I use it when I wear buns. I especially like it for the hair edges. They stay super soft, especially if you use it at night and wrap your hair with a scarf.

I know I'm late but here are my favs from each line.

Qhemet Detangling Cream - detangles like a charm!!
Olive and Honey Hydrating Balm - I love this, it's so light and leaves my hair very moisturized
Olive and Amla Heavy Cream - is good, but I prefer the balm

Jane Carter Nourish and Shine/Hair Nourishing Serum - I like to mix these two products. Makes the Nourish and Shine easier to spread and it smells WONDERFUL!!!
Scalp Renew Serum - says it's to remove toxins. Recommended for those with dry, itchy scalp or hair loss. I have neither but I love the tingle. It came with the sample pack so I'll use it up but won't purchase it seperately.

I'll definately repurchase the Qhemet Detangling Cream, Olive and Honey Hydrating Balm, Jane Carter Nourish and Shine and Hair Nourishing Serum.

never tried qhemet. but i tried jane carter nutrient replenishing conditoner when i was natural and i was in love. it was the best conditioner i ever used. my hair felt so soft and silky after i washed it out. it works best if you put on a plastic cap and sit under the dryer. one time my hairdresser just let me sit with the plastic cap and a hot towel around my head without the dryer and it didn't come out as well. i'll give a review when i try it on my relaxed hair.
