jury's still out on:

sta-sof-fro curl activator cream---its rich...heavy hands like myself should not squeeze so hard..i end up with a big handful everytime...much is not needed...i have not used it yet for what i bought it for which was to create a curly 'do...but it was good to hydrate the ends in a puff a cpl of times..and did add curls...and the smell isnt too mainly unlike the spray

this product may not be easy to find...i had been eyeballin it for several mths at a nearby BSS....

all other purchases r repeats of what i have had before....

i think...

see see..i knew it was somethin..

hit!!

liquid shea butter from http://www.health2go.com/products.php?cat=24

used in a spritz for my daughter's locs which she keeps dry as a bone...i mix it with water, rosemary e.o. and olive oil

Still on the fence about BBD Stretch Creme. I need to see how it performs when my roots start to exert themselves to determine if its really worth the $$.

I will have to say, my deep conditioner and flat iron job at the Walmart hair salon (Smart Styler or something like that). This taller, white young lady named Amanda gave me the best flat iron I have ever had and she did all the right things. She was gentle during the wash, used an Olive Oil deep conditioner made by Regis (cheaper version of L'Occitane's Olive Oil Conditioner) and dryed with a heat protectant with an ion dryer, used Biosil and Dudley's creme press and my hair feels soft, is super bouncy and is super duper smooth and sleek! I'm gonna hafta save this doo for a week!

 

[pink_flower]

Hit: Colourshine in Black Orchid- I love how black, shiny and healthy my hair looks
Rediscoverd hit: Profectiv Breakfree- I don't know why I stray from this, it always gets the job done.
Miss: BBD Stretch- its okay but nothing spectacular. I like to flat iron my roots w/ it, but I won't repurchase.
