June 2016: Hits & Misses

[Aggie]

I know better right! I haven't used it yet. As soon as I do, you know I'm in here literally within minutes of washing it out.

I was going to get the one @IDareT'sHair has, but I put it down for a reason I don't remember and now regret it. I should have just gotten both.

@Saludable84

Looks like I gatta go back on curlmart and add them to my wish list . I'll be right here waiting for your review of your curl rehab.

MAJOR Hit: SiameseTwists Sweet Potatoe Pie Hair Cream

I used this product today as a DC and oh my goodness! My hair was transformed to silky, smooth, easy detangled hair that feels super moisturized. I usually have to take my sweet time to detangle from tip to root, but with this product, I don't have to worry about snags. My comb just glided through and even better was the significantly less hair I had when detangling. Definitely adding this to my staple DC. I'm truly done with shopping for DCs now, lol. I want to thank @IDareT'sHair @SweetlyCurly and @Beamodel for their reviews of this product.

Thinking of purchasing some items based on your recommendations. Can I trouble you to post the ingredient list for the 4c cupuacu butter and the sweet potato DC? Just a photo will do because I can't seem to get full ingredients lists on her site. Pleassssee?

@Saludable84

You really should have gotten them both, strictly for research purposes. Although Deep Fix is a light protein and Curl Rehab is Moisture, Moisture, Moisture.

@Rastafarai

You taught me something today. I've never used Sweet Potatoe as a DC'er only has a Hair Crème/Butter.

Thank you for your review as a DC'er.

I have a Family size jar I'm saving for Fall/Winter.

And now I remember why I went with rehab. I needed moisture.

Of course, hun!

Carrot Butter:



Sweet Potatoe Pie:

 

[Rastafarai]

@AgeinATL I requested that glycerin or glycerin and silk peptide be added to the mix.

@IDareT'sHair, I will definitely be ordering the family size to this product!

 

[Aggie]

Of course, hun!

Instant HG to the Infinity Power Hit:
APB Moisturizing Conditioner

This has trumped everything in my stash. The slip, moisture, and softness is out of this world. I will reup on a ton of jars in my favorite scents. This 4c hair is still speechless.

 

[NaturallyATLPCH]

That's weird because the Deep Fix was more moisturizing than the Rehab for my hair. The Hydrolized Oat Protein acts as a thickener in the product and not necessarily a penetrating, strengthening type of protein but some people's hair may react as such.

My hair loves protein though.

I know I should be embarrassed to ask this, but what does APB stand for ...anyone?

 

[Beamodel]

@Rastafarai
My sweet potatoe hair cream doesn't look like yours. Mines is like a fluffy whipped butter. Like SSI Seyani butter. I've never used it as a DC. Only as a butter/sealant.

@Aggie it's Anabelle's Perfect Blends. The owner is a member here. There's a thread in the vendor forum with reviews for the products.

 

[flyygirlll2]

@Beamodel I was just about to say the same thing. Mine doesn't look like that either. It's a whipped butter consistency.

 

[Beamodel]

Super Hit
APB Bamboo Spray - it's a strengthening spray but I find myself using it quite often as a refresher and my hair is very soft, yet strong. No protein over load at all either.

I have it in marshmallow cloud scent

My hair loves protein though.

I saw the protein and put it down because I didn't want anything with protein. When I looked at my humble little stash, I realized a good amount of my stuff has protein. My hair used to love protein, but now, not so much so I have to be careful. I'm still going to get the deep fix. You know, just because. But I really have to watch it as my hair mostly thrives on moisture. I have not done a hard protein since probably the new year and my hair still doesn't stretch

Hit:
Eco Styler Custard with Argan Oil

Miss:
Getting to the near end and finding out that Eco Styler Custard was discontinued. Grrr and I can't stand the regular gel so kinda stuck.

 

[Anaisin]

Miss: Finding this full jar of Okra Curl Cream hidden in my stash and it having nice slip & moisture then going to the site and finding out it's a different formula.

Have you tried the Cocktail from Ecostyler?

 

[mzteaze]

No not yet. That seems to be the replacement for the custard. I was considering getting it from Sally's.

 

[AgeinATL]

@Rastafarai thank you sis!!!!

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@Beamodel @flyygirlll2

I've had it both ways.

Like yours and I've had it like @Rastafarai as well.

 

[flyygirlll2]

@IDareT'sHair Thats interesting. I wouldn't think to use it as a DC. I've only used it as a sealant. I'm used to using products with a creamy consistency to DC with.
