Naturals...what products have you been using lately...

[sweetwhispers]

I have Aveda DR and the DR conditioner. How do you natural ladies use it?

 

[Vshanell]

Honey rinses, avacado butter and Noodlehead! I got the best hair with this combo. I was very happy!

 

[mkstar826]

Aveda all the way! everything i use is in my product album...

 

[Affinity07]

I am absolutely loving Oyin's Greg Juice and Honey Hemp as leave ins and Vatika Oil as a sealant. These are definite staples.

 

[ShaniKeys]

Essential oils: jojoba, almond, peppermint and rosemary shampoo. Lovin' it

 

[Incredible1ne]

I recently twisted my hair with Oyin's Burnt Sugar Pomade and I love it I also bought the Juices and Berries Greg Juice but I haven't used that yet but I'm hoping that it works well.

 

[ladytq]

LongAid activator Gel (this is replacing my stay soft fro)
Carrot Oil Cream (Africans Best)
Amla Oil & Vatika Oil
Avocado Butter
Mango Butter

I starting to wonder about the Aveda, Oyin and Deva curl products. The only thing that is keeping my Pjism from activating in the PRICES!!

 

[NantanYah]

I loooove Oyin's burnt sugar pomade. It works wonders for the hair. I love to cowash with Curl curlicious cleansing cream, or a mixture of Suave Tropical Coconut and whatever other cheapy condishes I have lying around. FOr quick fixes I use Aussie DEEEP 3minute miracle. I only wash with Aveda sap moss (ubermoisture and cleansing), and clarify with lemon juice and baking soda. For deep conditioners I use L'oreal megamoisture treatment and put a little olive oi in it. I like to use Qhemet products for my twistouts and braidouts.

Oh yeah, if you want moisture Carols daughter hair milk is awesome.

 

[SignatureBeauty]

I use the Following:

Suave Coconut Conditioner ( conditioner washes)
S-Curl Texturizing Spray or S-Curl (Daily Moisture & Softness)
Unrefined Shea Butter ( For Cornrows Only)
Unscented Boundless Tresses ( Stops my Dry Itchy Scalp 1x A Week)

I keep my routine simple and plain and it works for me

 

[BrownSkin2]

I have Aveda DR and the DR conditioner. How do you natural ladies use it?

When I used this set, I would rotate it with a moisturing conditioner every other week or 3 weeks. My hair doesn't like a lot of protein. It craves moisture.

 

[sweetwhispers]

^ Thanks Brownskin! My hair is very badly damaged so i used it 2 weeks in a row, then skipped it last week. Do you use the con first or the treatment?

 

[IrisDaVirus]

Godiva shampoo bar from Lush Products

Tresemme' conditioner

Coconut oil

African Royale Miracle Oil Moisturizer

 

[jewel]

Same ole coconut oil and fantasia Ic gel mixed together. I've been keeping it pretty basic lately

 

[Jessica Rabbit]

I've been giving the Kinky Curly line another try the past few days and my hair seems to really like it. i just need to figure out the proper way to apply it. I'm a little heavy handed but my curls look GREAT!

 

[SVT]

JBCO for my braided ends at night (shedding reduced)
coconut oil for flatironing (lightweight oil)

 

[joyous]

Lately, I've been enjoying the Joico line, especially the Hydrating Conditioner. I've also been using the Joico Deep Penetrating Reconstructor and Reconstructor Conditioner. My favorite shampoo right now is Abba, it's sulfate and dye free. It leaves my hair tangle free and very soft.

 

[locoabouthair]

Currently I'm using:

DevaCurl Low Poo, One Conditioner, and B'Leave In.I love them all and I'm glad I've found one line that works for me.
However to balance out the cost of Devacurl I use some other things I have laying around:
Cantu Shea Butter poo and conditioner
Motions Lavish Poo and Conditioner
NoodleHead poo and Conditioner
Luxury Elements poo and Conditioner.
Suprisingly all of these work fo rmy hair but I'm gone to use these all up and stick to 2 or 3. Probably Luxury Elements and Noodlehead, I may use Cantu Conditioner for CO-WASH.

I still have several dominican products that I have not touched since I bc'd- have to ge back to them.

For styling my staples are:
Kinky Curly Custard
Fantasia IC gel
Miss Jessies Curly Pudding
Sebestian Curl Gelee

For Moisture:
Miss Jessies Baby Buttercreme - I HEART this stuff!
Avocado Butter or Red Palm Oil butter

Then I seal with:
CoCasta Hair Oil from Hairveda.net
and I just got Jessicurl Oil Blend

I will have to update..........I have new products I'm trying

 

[BroadstreetBully]

Same ole coconut oil and fantasia Ic gel mixed together. I've been keeping it pretty basic lately

I need to try this!

 

[stargazer613]

Kinky Curly Curling Custard.....(I ordered it on August 3rd and received it yesterday!----can u believe how fast that shipped?)

I'm rocking a wash n go today: I cowashed with VO5 Passionfruit Smoothie and followed that with some Aussie 3 Min, rinsed lightly with cold water, applied a generous amount of Cury Custard and put on a headband.

I like the results of this product. It really helps define my curls, and gives them a medium hold, not too soft not too crunchy. I really love the all natural ingredients, and the scent is to die for!

 

[GoingNatural]

Hempseed butter and Giovanni Direct leave-in

My hair loves it -- and me too!

[BroadstreetBully]

Hempseed butter and Giovanni Direct leave-in

I've seen some nice wash and go's with this product, I need to pick it up.

 

[SpyCats]

My staples are in my siggy, however I purchased a bottle of Vatika oil yesterday, i'll be pre-pooing with it and rubbing it on my edges.

 

[ladytq]

I'm totally loving Elucence MB as a leavin and Ojon restorative treatment. They both make my hair soft on contact!!!!

 

[chocolate01]

Redkin Smooth Down shampoo and conditioner, I also use the Buttertreat by Redkin as well. Carrot oil, Fantasia IC gel, Paul Mitchell Wax Works and Beyond the Zone noodlehead

 

[curlilocs]

Right now I'm using more oil blends with extra virgin coconut, olive, sweet almond, and grapeseed oils. I'm still using alot of leave in conditioners like Elucence, PM the Conditioner, Cantu Shea Butter leave in. I've been doing my co washes with heavier conditioners rather than my usual Suave. My hair seems to be really dry this summer.

 

[alexei]

Just Long-aid Activator gel.
Perfect combo of moisture & protein.

 

[Wildchild453]

DevaCurl No poo
QB's honeybush gel, heavy cream and olive detangler
Coconut Oil

 

[starfish79]

My hair loves Giovanni Direct and coconut oil. I recently got some red palm oil to try Sareca's creme, and I'll be ordering some avocado butter asap!

...I will shampoo with one of my soap bars. I have several and they all are wonderful -- Chagrin Valley, palm oil soap or raw shea butter soap ...

OT --- omg - don't you just looove her shampoo bars!! Recently I've been trying to use up some traditional shampoo and my hair is really not having it. I guess using it up isn't that worth it for me, back to the CV poo-bar I go...with glee.

 

[Crown]

Crisco!
Usually, I use shea butter mixed with amla oil. But with Crisco (soybean oil and cottonseed oil) mixed with amla oil, my hair is 2x softer, and my ends are so nice!
