[VinDieselsWifey]

Hit:
Avlon Texture Release. I did two passes of the flat iron at 370 F so it loosened my hair to like a 3B/3C. I can now detangle my whole head in 5 minutes. I feel like someone let me out of jail.

HIT
All 3 were found at Dollar Tree:
1. Anomaly Bonding Treatment Mask (Priyanka Chopra's line) - very similar to Olaplex, light scent. I keep touching my hair! It feels soft and strong. It feels so good at almost 3 months post-relaxer.
2. Anomaly Leave-In - not sticky, feels like my beloved Neutrogena Silk Touch, light scent
3. Roots to End Revitalizing Mask - Very hydrating and moisture-focused, still sold on Ama.Zon for $25!

Did I go back and grab ~20 more (primarily of #1)? Yes I did!

What did we used to use on here? Ah yes lol

But fr, I only ever saw her line in cvs and wouldn’t have ever tried it at $19-$24!

And update: I haven’t paid attention to my hair since wash day yet it still feels as good!

Hit:
Neges Banda's Cayenne & Fenugreek Hair Butter

Miss:
Their price point & shipping cost. I guess I'm salty that they are on the pricey side, I don't have a b/up and they never have "good sales" IMO *sucks teef & hard eye roll*

@BetteDavisEyes
Ain't that yo' girl?

You need to holla at her about them prices

So far, i have love everything I've tried, but I refuse to pay those prices + shipping

 

[Bette Davis Eyes]

I’m not sure if my BA code still works. Negesbanda is expensive. Usually she emails sales randomly. I’ve been sticking to protective styles so I only use my skincare items more. @IDareT'sHair

Hit

Taliah Waajid shipping. My items are out for delivery.

 

[Bette Davis Eyes]

Miss.

The Earthly Alternative shipping. I just realized I haven’t gotten my item yet. Shipping email was sent June 9th and hasn’t moved since June 10th. Highly disappointing as I waited months to try this item as it was always oos

 

[Napp]

Miss kinky curling custard. My hair looked stringy and felt sticky

Miss
Sienna Naturals
DNA hair growth serum. I added an allergic reaction. Caused scalp itching. Returning.

 

[naturalyogini2]

Meh
MoKnowshair
Deep conditioner- very thick. Minimal slip Works best on soaking wet hair for added slip. This conditioner was just so so for me. My hair had a slight halo at the crown More strength than moisture. Not a repurchase.

Scalp Clarifier

Very nice. Suds well. Relieved my itchy menopausal scalp. A repurchase.

Hydration shampoo- very thin but moisturizing. Maybe a repurchase

Curl Primer This is a spray leave-in. It is supposed to be used as a leave-in. It didn't work like that for me. Better as a refresher.

Curl gel. Slimey. But it doesn't clump hair. I only got 1 day of wng.Not a repurchase

Styling Potion
This is my favorite product. It has great slip and makes the hair feel silky. Most reviewers didn't like this product but this is my new leave-in.

Hair butter. This product has slip and is super thick. I liked it, not loved it. It will last a long time but not a repurchase. Not enough definition or moisture.

Those were my first impressions.

Hit
Chebe conditioner. Silky, slippy and moisturizing. I got the sample. Will buy the regular size!

Karkar oil. Love this too. Thick and very moisturizing. Buying regular size

Meh
Chebe serum spray leave-in. Great as a detangler. On the fence. I prefer her other spray leave-in, Fenugreek spray.

Meh
Chebe butter. This is grainy with no slip, but moisturizing. On the fence

UPDATE: I put MoKnowshair products for sale in Hair Product exchange.

New Hits

The smell of the As I am Bond water. Yummyyy

The texture of the As I Am Groyogurt from the Long & Luxe line. It’s sooooo slippery. I can’t wait to use this next Saturday doing wash day.

 

[VinDieselsWifey]

Hit:

As I Am Rosemary Shampoo

It gives a nice tingle on the scalp, cleans good but my hair still feels moisturized.

 

[Yvette 2.0]

Hit
The Doux Chief Rocka Xtreme Moisture Mousse beneath Innersense I Create Hold (a gel)

For detangling: (Alba Ramos Clean Curls) DermaE Curl Repair Deep Treatment + Unbrush for thick hair

 

[Angel of the North]

On the fence: Miche gel to foam mousse - This isn't a one and done product for me as it's advertised, it works well with the tropical oasis gel, or Camille Rose curl maker

Hits:
Miche tropical oasis gel - Good curl definition, works

Skala Mais Cachos - Great slip, I like it as a leave in and a cowash, I don't rate it as a DC though.
