Hit: African Pride Shea Butter Miracle Silky Hair Moisturizer - keeps my hair super stretched and moisturised for as long as I want it that way :yep:. I apply 1x a day, usually at night when I braid for bed. Tried it for 4 days and it worked. Now I'm back to S-Curl but now I know what to do and use when I don't want to encourage shrinkage for a while.

Revisited Hit
Purabody Naturals Chocolate Hair Smoothie * i know it gets 'mixed/bad reviews here & there, but i like it*:peek2:

Using my last jar. I'd repurchase for a really good deal.:takecover:
 
Hit: silk dreams mocha silk hair milk. I used this as a leave the past 2 wash days, and my hair airdries soooooo soft. I find with the silk dreams products, i don't need to seal much. It could be that it is getting warmer now, i don't know. I just apply the milk after rinsing out my DC, put my hair in big twists, and let it airdry. Later i moisturize with the SD almond buttercream (staple made HG), and retwist with the mocha bling butter (new staple). My hair stays buttersoft and supple. I really slept on this line; i just can't believe how good it is. Can't wait to try the DC's.

Hit: HH dark honey cleanser- full review in vendor's forum
Hit, but not a Hit: Bluerozebeauty cocoa rhassoul masque. It smells so good i was tempted to taste it,lol. It has a nice creamy texture, and it was easy to apply. I left it on for 20 minutes under heat therapy wrap, then another hour just walking around. The slip was not too awesome ( i've seen better), but my hair felt very moisturized. It rinses out clean. I hate conditioners that leave buildup on my scalp. The reason i can no longer use this is personal. It reminded me of the reason i don't drink coffee. Coffee gives me a severe dull headache. If i have to be up for a meeting or anything, i will drink coffee, and pop 2 tylenols. 5 mns into my DCing i felt it. I was not about to rinse my hair out, so i popped 2 tylenols:look:. So next time i want a rhassoul treatment i will just mix some of my anita grant cubes. The results were not worth the headache.
This also reminds me not to use my HH jar of joe as a scalp treatment.

Hit:
Just for Me! Hair Milk Curl Smoother as a leave-in. Hair is loving it!
Setting my hair in twists for bed. Less tangles & more moisture retention!
Miss:
It's a 10 Miracle Leave-In Conditioner. It works, but you can get the same results for less. Over-hyped!
TRESemme Moisture Rich Conditioner

Neutral:

NG marshmallow root and slippery elm (my results were never consistent with this DC, i tried it four times and at times it was hard to detangle after rinsing it out. Its not a must have for me)

I have the rest of my NG deep conditioners to try as well (5 of them, lol), excited to see which ones I'll make a staple! (The Intense DC is a staple!)
 
Hit:
Claudie's Renew Protein Deep Conditioner
I've used this 3 times and it's GREAT as a protein DC for an hour. You don't have to use much because it's superrr thick and when it rinses out it doesn't leave my hair dry! It's replaced Aphogee 2 minute reconstructor for me!

Darcy's Pumpkin Seed Conditioner as a detangler on freshly washed wet hair (think I've posted about this before on the hit/misses thread lol)
Best detangler I've used so far! The comb goes through like butter!! I was really hoping that I could use Knot Sauce on wet hair like this but Darcy's is perfect. It's too thick for detangling on dry hair. The smell is awesome! I can detangle in 10 minutes tops! :)
 
HIT: KBB Sweet Ambrosia. It did exactly as described, detangled and conditioned my freshly washed relaxed hair wi/8 weeks new growth. I'm not crazy about the smell but my hair feels really soft. The final verdict will be in once my hair completely dries.

On the fence: KBB Luscious Locks Hair Mask. I didn't feel it did anything special. Not bad but not great, especially for the price.
 
Hit Hit Hit: silk dream mocha silk leave in on dry hair as a moisturizer. I used this because I wanted something lighter than the almond buttercream, and it moisturized just as well. I sealed and twisted with the mocha bling: shiny moisturized hair. I wore a twistout last night, came home and fell asleep without my silk cap, and off my sold pillow case. So when I woke up I was scared to even touch my hair. To my surprise my hair is still very shiny and moisturized. I just spritzed a little oyin juices and berries lightly, fluffed again and my hair is just as beautiful.
 
Miss: Lisa Rachel Conditioner and cleanser for dry hair, they said if you like wen you will love this. It was too thick to co wash with. It doesn't clean my hair, and I have better conditioners.
 
Miss: carols daughter shampoo. Says it detangles and all i got was a dry mess. Smells good though. Do not recc for 4b hair. Hair was stripped off all everything.

Silk elements relaxer - why did i use this mess????? Im so sorry i cheated on you Phyto. Dont know what was wrong with me. Nobody can do it like you. Hair felt weird during rinseout and not smooth. Results just ok smh. Learned my lesson.,

On the fence : Nexxus humectress - this formula has changed circa 1980s. Very different but i like it so far.
 
Hit-Shea Moisture moisture retention shampoo
Miss-Loreal Advanced power moisture condish left my hair feeling coated
 
Continued Hits-

*SSI-Coco moisture leave-in..Gel like texture,silky,smells like coffee,detangles..I like this fit spring/summer use..My hair loves this..No tangles or hair shed & little goes a long way..It glides down your length.

*Soultinacls-Wrappers Delight spritz...Smells sweet,texture is watery,non sticky,aids in moisture,perfect 2nd day spritz or refresher,this works very well if you want a spray that contain healthy herbs for your scalp/hair..

*Hair Veda-Red Tea moisturizer....This is my spring/summer go too...Texture is a medium lotion cream,absorbs,no residue,not heavy,doesn't weight your hair down or cause build-up..It's healthy for your scalp/hair..Keeps your hair moisturized during those hit summer days.

*G.O.W-Walnut oil..Little goes a long way,it's a great pre poo,hot oil & sealent....My hair responds better to this Ceramide in the spring/summer..Keeps the ends smooth.

*D & L-Curl cream..Medium-Thick texture,smells like bubble gum,great for wash/goes,detangles...Spring/summer product..Just put little oil on your ends & gel for hold...Get second day styled hair...That's not crunchy or dry.

Happy Hair Growing!

Soultanicals Afrotastic Curl Elastic dc. . .MISS

It was great initially. But then it seemed to disappear altogether. Left my hair feeling no different than it had prior to applying the product

kupenda Hi! Try it as a cowash.....Keep us posted..

*My hair has a love/hate affair with this product..Worked better as a cowash/body wash..


Happy Hair Growing!
 
Probably a HIT: Elucence Moisture Balancing Conditioner

I used it as a DC and it really made detangling my hair less of a chore. Yesterday it was used as a leave in and my hair had this shine after I put in the product. I can't belive that I waited so long to try this. I will give it a few more gos but I will probably buy a liter size in the shampoo and conditioner. I love that my hair is cool with cheaper things.

Maybe a HIT: Silk Dreams Chocolate Bliss. Don't care for the scent but I love the consistency. My hair felt fluffy after I washed this DC out. Silk Dreams is a great line!
 
Hit:
HH Soft Coconut Marshmallows & Jar of Joe
Hairveda Sitrinillah
Naturelle Grow Intense Deep Conditioner
Taliah Wajeed Curly Curl Cream

Not a Hit or Miss:

Definite Miss:
As I Am Coconut Cowash
