Naturals: How Do You Get That Beautiful Sheen? What Product Gives It?
- Thread starter SignatureBeauty
- Start date
For wash n gos, I get a really great shine boost by smoothing in a little Aubrey Organics Mandarin Magic Ginko Leaf and Ginseng Root Hair Moisturizing Jelly over my leave-in.
Braidouts...the best product I've used so far (that's also cost effective) is ORS Olive Oil (a cream) mixed with a little IC Fantasia gel for hold on dampish/dry hair and it gives a very nice shine/sheen.

These products give my hair sheen:
1. Aveda Anti-Humectant Pomade
2. Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
3. Burt's Bees Avocado Butter (this stuff is excellent for braid/twistouts.)

1. Coconut Oil on wet hair
2. Castor Oil on wet hair
Individually, both give great sheen.

You know one time, I had to wash my hair but I was out of town without products. I combined some mayo, Olive oil, Castor Oil and a huge dollop of honey. I wrapped my hair in a bag and let it sit for an hour. When I rinse I had this gorgeous sheen. I did not leave any of it in my hair of course and I did not apply any other product because I did not have it but my hair was gorgeous.

right now my glycerin mix is doing a great job but i've also gotten fantasic shine and bling from fantasia IC (that clear one in the shorty jar, not sparklettes).
someone mentioned honey - yep that too worked really well. i got a great natural sheen - especially when i deep conditioned, rinsed and when it dried.
if and when i ever decide to flatiron again, i'll go back to biosilk.....i got fantasic results from that on my transitioning hair, both sides of the demarcation line.
i tried using oils (i've got wild growth, avocado, jojoba, carrot, coconut, sweet almond, grapeseed) after i bc'd and my hair doesn't seem to like them like it did when i transitioned so i'm oil free.
whoops, forgot about the castor oil - i haven't used that since i've bc'd either but i'm mildly curious.
i'll try again in the winter time maybe i could try them in a hot oil treatment or something.

Consistent DCing gives my hair a nice natural sheen. When I am wearing my hair in twists or pulled back and I want a little extra bling, castor oil!! 
I looove regualar ol' clear castor oil....its my staple of staples.
