1. Alfaparf semi di lino serum- I cant believe I was EVER sleeping on this It is the absolute best. Its almost like a light oil that gives and incredible non- greasy shine. I LOVE IT!
2. NO- wrap method: Instead of wrapping my hair every night, this month I have just been pinning my hair on top of my head and wrapping it loosely under a silk scarf, with a satin bonnet on top. I have been able to maintain and fully, shiney curly hairstyle that I can can just shake and go when I take my hair down in the morning- no combing or anything!

sassygirl125 said:Myhoneychild's Lemon Hair Puding Lotion—I like the way it makes my hair look, feel and smell, but it has little bits of lemon in it. It looks like I have boogers in my hair.
I use it when I know I won't be going anywhere where people will get close to me.
Yuck, you've got boogies in your hair!!!

HIT!!
Elucence Silk Hydrating Elixir. I had used it before now, but not the same way I use it now--as a blowdrying agent AND as a daily moisturizer. Oh my word. I ain't NEVA givin' this stuff up. My hair has never been so silky.
Miss
Frizz Ease Extra Strength Smooth Control conditioner. It came free with the extra strength serum I just bought, so I figured I'd try it. It's just too much for my fine hair. Made it feel all coated and icky. I washed it out and used my tried and true Jason Sea Kelp conditioner. I used to use the original frizz ease con back when it was called Glistening Creme and it was good stuff. Maybe I just need the regular strength, or maybe my hair just doesn't respond to it the same way anymore. Whatever. I ain't cryin cuz it was free
Jury's still out on the extra strength serum because I haven't used it yet. After washing out the conditioner I was afraid the serum would be too much too so I just went on with my regimen as usual. "If it ain't broke..." you know the rest

HITS:
- Redken's Clear Moisture Moist Ends - works well on damp and dry ends
- Biolage Ultra Hydrating Shampoo - left hair clean but not feeling stripped
- Biolage Ultra Moisturizing Balm - good moisturizing treatment (left on longer than the recommended 3 mins.)
- Aubrey's GPB (new formula) the new bottle says to apply to dry hair 15 mins before shampooing for deep conditioning. Loved the results!
MISSES:
- Black and Sassy's version of Breakfree: I should have known better than to try this. I hate everything else they make. Left my hair feeling filmy but I kept the satin scarf it came with.

Phytospecific Intense Nutrition Shampoo

MISSES
Phytospecific Vital Force Conditioner
Phytospecific Intense Nutrition Conditioner
After I used them I had no slip, way more breakage then I am accustomed to, and the ends of my hair felt hard and crispy. But since I paid sooo much money for them, I think I might try them as occasional deep protein treaments followed up with my usual Moisturing Conditioner.

Dipping my Good Hair Day pins in oil (idea originating from Boadicea)
I just now tried it for the first time.
Oops! I guess I have to scratch the Caruso from this post since I bought it at Christmas.

Hits:
Profectiv Mega Moisturizer (pink in the bottle)-I picked this up totally by accident and I am very pleased with the results. It's light but thick enough to really moisturize the hair without weighing it down.
Nexxus Emergencee-used it the proper way, washing it out with Botanoil. It still clumps my hair together but Kenra MC rescued it and I like the strength that it gives to my hair.
Kenra MC-just purchased it after trying it months ago. It's like heaven, the slip and the moisture it provides.
All Ways Castor Oil grease with Indian Hemp-I've always liked indian hemp grease and this combination works very well with my hair.
Went back to:
Nexxus Botanoil Shampoo-very cleansing and nourishing shampoo. I always feel like it's really working and treating my hair.
Terme Protein Treatment-I think this is a Dominican condr., it works really well as a protein combo treatment
Still to try:
Biolage Conditioning Balm
