Has anyone used the marigold spray? The company i ordered from gave me a free sample, but I notice it's not a popular choice here
sweetgal, marigold spray is an insect/mosquito repellent which can be sprayed on the skin. Great for the summer months I guess.

No, not for hair. Just face and body. It is especially effective at getting rid of bugs that fly. Sorry honey.
I just received the avocado spray. I wash my hair last night, applied OCT, sprayed this stuff on and sealed with Vatika coconut hair oil. I then twist my natural hair into 6 twists for the night . . . woke up this morning and was not happy! I wished I'd read this thread before I order that avocado spray! I thought it was a moisturizing spray that would give me all sort of moisture. I didn't realize that it had so much protein in it. Ugh!
So after reading this thread it sounds like the rehydrant spray and the survivor are better for natural heads using OCT & MT.
Okay, soooooo what do I do with this HUGE a$$ bottle of avocado spray?

Girl, I don't even know.
Mine is still sitting in the cabinet, mostly full. I figure I'll find a use for it, eventually - maybe if I color or start using heat on my hair, I'll need the extra protein boost - but I dunno.kymberlise

Dont feel bad Snuckles... I did the exact same thing two weeks ago with the avocado spray... it made my hair so so very hard; its the very reason Im reading this post now to find out what I did wrong. I have a huge bottle of it too and dont know what do with it. Im thinking that adding 2 or 3 other moisturizers to it to lessen the concentration of the protein might work but which moisturizers? Aloe definitely. What else? Anyone have suggestions?

I am about to order Avacado Mist, premier Cream rinse, and Megatek. Zeal holding her right hand up. I will incorporate this with my Ayurveda. i will not use anything else for the next 3 months. 
Edit - Based on this I may have to mix the mist with coconut and sesame oil. So should I order it yall. I usually get my protein for eggs in my henna mix once a month

I got my Eqyss Avocado Mist Spray Detangler and my Eqyss Premier Rehydrant Spray today. Both smell delicious. I am still in micros and I sprayed the Avocado Mist on my hair tonight. So far so good, soft moisturized hair. Next buy is the Micro-tek spray.

i wanna get these products, but i'm not sure how to incorporate into my reggie...i only cowash weekly, and i use ayurveda stuff. i wash monthly, maybe with garlic poo...
how do you use these things, and what is the benefit...i've got megatek, so i'm good on that, but how are they helping you guys? Is your hair thicker and stronger? Style better, what? please break it on down for me. I am flatironing weekly and wrapping/pincurling my hair for 3 days, then bunning it...
i know that i don't want the avocado stuff, bet.
I'm wanting thick, heavy wl hair....i am apl, i did a mini-chop guys...took off about 4 inches...want it back thicker, longer, wavier and stronger...is that too much to ask? ~;
TIA!!

Are you relaxed or natural?
I am really only familiar with the natural side of the house because I have been natural for the last 5 years. I only learned to properly take care of my hair as a natural. This is not to say that i didn't have health and length as a permie but that I only did that by the grace of God.
I feel that these products moisturize, strengthen and thicken my hair. My texture has not changed other than thickness.

Disappointed with the Survivor Detangler! The Rehydrant spray used full strength is a better detangler and I still have no shine. Smells weird funny until I stick my nose in my hair then it's really good.

Most if not all of the Mega-Tek products contain protein in them and they are making my hair look dull and sometimes ashy looking.
My hair is still strong and moisturized though.
I also just found out that using the Rehydrant spray alone is not good enough if you don't add castor oil or any type of oil to seal it with. Rehydrant spray is good when glycerin is added. I am going to buy a cream moisturizer over the counter since my hair loves that. I will get this regimen back on track. YES I WILL!

Sorry you had a bad experience with the survivor detangler. I didn't. I use it as a serum to shine my hair not as a detangler, that might be why. I find that the rehydrant spray is quite concentrated and so I mix mine with half water and it still leaves my relaxed hair nice and moisturized. I like putting it on while my hair is still wet after washing and allowed to airdry with it in. I haven't tried rollersetting with it as yet but I want to though.

who uses the premier shampoo? what are your views?
i used it for the first time today, it is a green color, smells "not as good as the other eqyss products" and reminds me of washing up liquid
my hair needed a good clarifying and it done that very well it allowed my hair to feel squeeky clean.
i followed up with rehydrant and MT and sealed with castor oil, my hair feels smooth

I agree, it does clean the scalp and hair very well but still leaves it a bit soft and not over-dry which is good. I have a 32 oz bottle and will not be needing another one for a very very long time. I will not be using it too often as I am moving into using more natural organic hair poos, conditioners and ayurveda products now for the overall health of my hair.

Yeah, the Detangler is kinda meh when it comes to detangling - I suspect it would detangle better on straight hair.
I use it as a sealer mixed with a little castor oil, and it's WONDERFUL. WONDERFUL. Try it that way, and see if you like it.
Have you clarified yet, missy?
I use the Premier Cream Rinse as a cowash/DC conditioner. I have the Rehydrant & Avocado Spray, and haven't figured out how to use either. I use the Detangler as a sealer, and I use the MT as a growth aid (of course).

Girl I know exactly what you're talking about. I feel the same way about certain threads talking about phenomenal hair products. I go in and get hooked, line and sinker.

Just tried the Survivor Shine stuff on wet hair with Aveda Humectant. I don't like to use combos cuz if one product doesn't do it then forgetboutit. But I got a free sample of the Survivor Detangler and Shine and thought I would throw it on my head. The Aveda's been sitting around waiting for me to do my twists so I thought I would try a bit of it on there too for good measure. So I don't know which one is "working"
I am natural and I don't flat iron or blow dry my hair. I am very happy with this so far.
My hair is totally dry and it doesn't feel crunchy. It feels like it is moisturizing my situation (Pdiddy proactiv commercial ugh) I will report back in a few days or post pic results on fotki.
TQ
