[IrisDaVirus]

HITS

Dark & Lovely Naturally Hydrating Citrus Braid & Sheen Spray - I've gone back to using this as a detangler before I do my conditioner washes.

Scünci No-Slip Grip 2 Loop Jaw Clip - Click here to see it. They hold my hair up nicely in the top, they're not bulky, and they don't snag my hair either.

MISSES

Dove Moisturizing Conditioner - I decided to give it another try after a friend gave me a bottle. It was okay but it didn't moisturize my hair enough. I won't use it again.

 

[MizaniMami]

Hits:
Pantene Breakage Control Conditioner- I used this because I'm still having split ends & knots....this stuff has so much slip it's addicting. I went out and bought 5 of em....you know, just in case. The only prob is that the container is so small but other than that, it's wonderful & my new staple.

Misses:
Garnier Fructis conditioners....all of em. These just stink, they contributed nothing, no slip, no detangling, no nothing.

Are you talking about the new breakage defense line? I really liked this stuff too.

[Allandra]

Hit:

I finally got around to using a cheapie conditioner that I purchased from Wal-Mart back in February. It's called Luster's PCJ Pretty -n- Silky Moisturizing Conditioner. I used it today after clarifying my hair, and it worked great (smelled pretty good too). I only purchased it because it was $1.

 

[HoneyDew]

Hit:

NTM Healing Shine Serum - nice for daily shine touchups.

Miss:

NTM Healing Shine Serum - but, it STINKS as a heat protectant compared to Silken Seal (which is what all protectants must live up to in my book!)

 

[HoneyDew]

Hits:

Do you like the regular one or the Relaxed and Natural one. I bought the regular one and have not had a chance to try it yet.

Well, it's not marketed as a heat protectant.

 

[Nita81]

Hits
Jane Carter Solution condition and sculpt

This lays my new growth down....very light...not hard or crusty.

 

[MizaniMami]

Well, it's not marketed as a heat protectant.

Anything with cones can protect the hair from heat, atleast to some degree.

ORS Olive Oil - This is only my 3rd day using it, but I already see & feel a difference in my hair.

Misses
Cantu Break Cure
Profectiv Healthy Ends

The misses had way too much protein for me and caused breakage. It took me a while to figure out that protein was the problem. If you really need protein then I recommend those products.
