Jazzy, my stylist was surprized at how straight and shiny this got my hair. Give it a try, it really works great.

I'll try it at the end of Boot Camp...I want to be totally surprised at the length I retained. ;) 9 months and counting.... :lol:
 
Just when I'd given up on all cholesterols.......

HIT: (Pre-poo on dry hair) Queen Helene Cholesterol WITH Ginseng = Strong & Soft hair
 
Revisit Hit:

Redken Heat Glide - I used this with my rollerset. My hair was smooth and soft!!!

Hit:

PhytoSpecific Styling Balm - This stuff has my hair so soft!!! But I don't know if it is worth the money.

On the fence:

PhytoSpecific Vital Force Shampoo and Conditioner - My hair feel stronger but I also have more tangling than I am use to.

PhytoLisse Serum - Not sure of what it is doing on my hair.
 
HITS:
Silicon Mix - It is the TRUTH! The conditioning is unlike anything else I've tried and at 6 weeks post, I needed all the help I could get. The slip, the fragrance....Oh my goodness! I am sorry I haven't used this sooner. This product has mineral oil, but mineral oil doesn't seem to bother me! This will become a staple for me.
Lacio Lacio - Nice and slippery; easy to smooth into the hair, nice shine.
Dabur Jasmine Hair Oil - Wonderful smell and conditioning properties, made my hair shiny - my hair smelled lovely and it lasted for a few days.

ON THE FENCE:
Praital Silk Worm Rinse AND Praital Moisturizing Cream Conditioner. No slip with the Rinse and the conditioner was so so. Nothing to rave about. Nice fragrance though. I will use it again after my relaxer to see if it performs better; I even clarified before using it.

No MISSES yet... - but I have a WHOLE ARSENAL of new products to try. I'll be back...
 
Proclaim's Natural 7 Oils with Olive oil--Hit!!! Smellls so nice and it gives great shine without weighing your hair down.

Silk Wraps for frizzy ends--Hit!! This really calmed down my ends.
 
previous on the fence (revisited):
Profective Mega Growth Deep Conditioner
HIT! (on freshly relaxed hair)
When I first used this I was like 6 weeks post. It did nothing for my hair. But I just used it (I relaxed Friday) and my hair is like butta!!!! :love:
 
Hit: Creme of Nature Kiwi and Citrus Moisture Actice Shampoo

Doesn't detangle quite as well as CON green label, but left my hair feeling moisterized, so it did its job

No misses yet!
 
Mega Hits: :grin:
OMG, Redken Cleansing Cream is so good. Lily recommended it, that she has used it faithfully for years. I bought this, it was inexpensive and I love everything about it. It comes out of the bottle thick & creamy like a conditioner, plus it smells yummy-i-licious too. Hard to believe for a clarifying shampoo, but it is truly amazing. I did a 1st lather with and followed with CON green. I don't know if I can resist using this every week like this. :look:

Mane N Tail Original Conditioner: It's hard to believe this product escaped my pj radar for so long, but I am glad I got hipped to this conditioner. I used it for in-shower conditioning. The slip was amazing and there isn't a drop of silicone in it either. It's cheap, and you get so much in a bottle, this is going to have to be a staple for me. No wonder Honeydew, Southergirl and Mona Lisa love this. It left my hair smelling nice and feeling soft too, love it! :p

MoneyDew you just make me sick! Everytime I see you post on this I want to try it. Your Hits have never been a miss with me. Never. grrrrr!

I was just so let down by the Heavy Cream that I never went through with the urge to order the Sidr Tree. You know I am on the 'Use It Up Challenge' I will have to wait until May to buy anything new. (May is the month a gave myself to try out a few new products.)

This is not a spot for a PJ. I am over here thinking hmmmmm with MonaLisa on the Redken.

*adding it to my may shopping list.* Yeah, I learned from the best with this ghost writing!

That one of my best oils! Love this stuff! (I am acting like Priestess, MonaLisa, and Bflyy. I have a few bottles on stock!)
I use the regular. I haven't tried the Olive Oil yet.

I love it too! I don't use it my hair (not yet anyway) but I slather it on my skin after bathing, it smells soooo good.

I just finished my first bottle, I had 2 waiting in the wings tho. :lachen:
 
No new products to review just yet.

Other Hits:

Carrot, ginger and apple juice! This is a definite keeper until I get preggers. My skins appearance has improved markedly and my skin is very soft. My new growth looks very shiny, is soft and healthy. The speed of growth has picked up a smidgen too which is a plus.

Rollersetting, I've been sleeping on this one for years.

Deep conditioning, been sleeping here too.


Revisits:

Castor Oil, my hair is in 7th heaven.
ORS Olive Oil (jar) works great on WET hair, hate it on dry!
ORS Hair Mayo (great as a prepoo treatment)

I use it on wet hair and it really holds down the moisture for days at a time. I still use my Aveda Universal styling cream daily, but the 2 really do keep my moisture in order. I am not sure if I really like the Sidr Tree on dry hair, though. I was not really impressed the one time I tried it like that.

Girl, you're too funny with the writing in white pj confessions! :lachen:

Now, I have to go seek out the Proclaim Natural Oil thanks to you...I need to start skipping over your posts...yet, I am mystically drawn to them...then I have to whip out my pen and post its...
 
I'm in a holding pattern on Cassia. For a lot less mess and fuss I can use a clear rinse (yeah yeah I know I know...lol)


I'll try it again this weekend. Maybe my mind will change.
