Hi ladies!
I consider myself to be considerably loyal to the products I use, but as I was roaming through CVS a couple of weeks ago, I saw these little jars of Nature's Gate hair conditioners on sale. I decided to pick up a couple to see how they would work. I got the Jojoba Revitalizing masque and the Herbal Hydrating Masque.
Well, I got around to trying them week before last, and :wow: I am in LOVE.
These products are nothing short of a miracle for my hair. The first week, I had been a little neglectful of my hair. I mean, I was looking after it, but it needed to be washed. I went too long without washing it, and it had gotten dry and unruly. I figured that was the perfect time to put the "revitalizing" masque to work to see just how revitalizing it really was. Well, I mixed it with a little castor oil and applied it. I sat under the dryer with it in for about 40 minutes then I went to rinse it out and my hair was SOOOOOOOO soft. The tangles were just falling out, and my hair felt strong yet super soft. I wasn't impressed yet though because the true test is how my hair feels once it's dry.
So, I detangled, added leave ins, and allowed my hair to air dry. My hair felt like satin until my next wash. I was in awe of how well this conditioner turned my dry, brittle hair into soft, pliable, shiny hair. All week I had a SERIOUS case of hand in hair disease because my hair was just so soft and springy.
The following week I decided to try the herbal hydrating masque. It was equally as amazing! I really didn't think anything could possibly be more moisturizing than the revitalizing masque but that hydrating masque was a total drink of water for my hair. My hair has been super soft and moisturized all week. Last night, I shampooed and DC'd with the herbal hydrating again and I got the same results: soft, smooth, healthy hair.
My only complaint about these products is that they contain parabens, and my regimen is primarily paraben free. However, that does NOT take away from the performance of them. They are, hands down, the most moisturizing and truly conditioning products I think I've ever used.
So, I just wanted to share my new found love with all of my LHCF sisters. If you like really thick, moisturizing cons, this is for you!
