-Palmer's Coconut Oil (actually, I've been using this before May

[sassygirl125]

No misses this month.

Dudley's DRC 28 was a hit! Thanks hair buddy!

And I finally got my hands on a fresh bottle of Nutrine Garlic shampoo (my first one was brown instead of pink). Good stuff!

Citre Shine Making Waves Curl Booster (Gel). It smells great and gives a nice, soft hold.

 

[deeplyrooted]

I haven't bought any new products this month (I'm on the PJ Challenge), BUT, I gotta re-affirm my jojoba oil. My ends and my two strand twist bangs are lovin' this! I use more than the recommended amount (about 5-6 drops on my ends) and my hair has been paying me back for this by being soft to the touch without greasiness!

I also gotta re-affirm the avocado butter. I used it to style my hair for a job interview http://public.fotki.com/SunshineCoils/2004/home_spun_hair/professional_hair/ and it smoothed my hair down wonderfully.

I'm glad you like the Kiehl's Creme with Silk Groom.

Hits: Triple Moisture Shampoo-I bought it the day before I started the May PJ challenge, and I am loving it. It leaves my hair feeling very clean but moisturized.

Wait hold up. There's a product called tropical negro

EQ Mango Butter
My own concotion of Avocado, Shea, Cocoa, Mango, and Amla/Brahmi/Surge Motion Potion #9

Indian product called Anoop STAANKOONIA...had to wash my hair two days in a row to get rid of that STANKY STANKY STINKY smell....My new rule of thumb...smell before you buy

 

[NubianAngel]

I probably should wait until tomorrow to know for sure, but I'm gonna say that Redken All Soft Heavy Cream is a hit for me, as far as softening and slipperifying my hair while wet.
