It's always "Good" to Revisit/Re-assess.

I just pulled out a Jar of CJ Curl Rehab for the 1st time in a long time..

I have that hiding in my stash right now. I think I am about to revisit it too- either as a leave in or a moisture rich DC, not sure yet.

@DoDo

I also have some KBB, Darcy's, AO GPB, BeeMine, Jessicurl WDT (jar) DC'ers I need to revisit as well.

Take a little break from some of this 'newer' stuff and go back to some Old Tried & True Favs.

That is what I'm talking about! Always have a full phone book! So that when the new ones show out, you can always go to what is tried and true.

Exxxactly! Looking forward to it.

I'm looking so forward in using Curl Rehab again on Friday!

It's good to have a back up that will always deliver.

Revisited hit: The Healing Place Mudwash

Forgot I even had this in my stash so I figure I use it up. The other times I used it wasn't too impressed. Didn't feel like it really cleaned my hair or scalp but I think I discovered the culprit: both those times I've pre-pooed. Today I didn't use any oil prior to washing. With this product is not necessary since is has enough oils not to strip the hair. Today it really cleaned well and hair was moisturized and shiny. Curls were popping too. May buy again. Really impressed me today.

[IronButterfly]

HIT
Inadvertently doing four protein treatments in one month. My hair must have been starved cuz it is feeling amazing right now.

MISS
Making the mistake of asking for additional blueberry scent in my Annabelle's deep condish. There's an underlying acrid aroma spoiling the blueberry notes. My bad.

 

[january noir]

LUSH R&B moisturizer. Hated it when I was relaxed. Love it as a natural.

 

[Brownie518]

KeraVada Argan Jojoba Coconut Marshmallow Oil

Hits

L'oreal Advanced Care treatment damage erasing mask. Pretty good stuff. My hair felt nice and strong with just a little slip. Upon rinsing it out my hair remained soft
this acted as a smoothing type conditioner for me. I let my hair air dry for 24 hrs without leave-ins and still my hair was very smooth and had a nice sheen. I want to try the Moisture Rush Mask but that has become hard to find.

Unexpected hit/purabody naturals sapote lotion as a facial moisturizer. My dry face, and oily t-zone area rained supple, flake free and didn't get greasy throughout the day.

Hits:
- cowashing/rinsing with darcys pumpkin has helped a lot with this cold weather

kupenda, is the Darcy pumpkin conditioner an instant conditioner, deep conditioner or a leave in conditioner? I couldn't figure out from her Etsy site.
