I read this weekend somewhere on the net at a retailers website that it is in fact discontinued. I was searching for it locally, no luck. I don't want to find it and like something I can't continue to use. Oh, the Jojoba Jelly is off the website too.

Gurl, your curls are so cute!!
I've tried and liked the following:
If you're looking for something that leaves your hair soft/supple feeling moisturized:
1. Smooth and Shine Curl Activator Gel is really good (bought this recently), keeps hair very supple.
2. L'oreal Out of Bed (cream or gel, I forget, it's more like a cream though, it's got Castor Oil in it). Anyway, I really like this stuff!
3. Kinky Curly's Curling Custard
If you're looking more hold:
1. The Citre Shine Wave Booster can leave your hair a little crunchy if you apply too much.
2. Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding, good, if you have the patience with it.
3. Bubble Up Styling Pudding (used w/the V05). Definite keeper when I want more hold than the Curling Custard. This is my personal favorite of all of them.
Leave In conditioners I use with these: V05 Peaches & Cream, Suave Milk & Honey and Aussie Knot Detangler. I'm partial to the V05 as a leave in.
I was trying to stretch my texturizers to every 4 months, realistically, it's more like every 8 weeks, to ward of breakage from the different textures.
