I love the satin sleep caps.
 
HITS:

Marie Dean's Curly Styling Cream-- Moisturized nicely and left my hair soft, wasn't oily at all.

Hairitage Hydration's Avocado Cloud-- Softened my hair right up and smells so good.

Hairitage Hydration's Blackberry Sage Moisturizer-- I love the texture and it made my hair really soft when I sealed with it. Softened up my daughter's hair too. :yep:

Qhemet's Aethiopika Hydrate & Twist Butter-- It turns yummy and creamy when I rub it between my hands and makes my hair feel so soft and silky. And the smell is divine :cloud9:

Qhemet's Amla & Olive Heavy Cream-- Gives me a religious experience

Qhemet's Burdock Root Butter Cream-- I was hesitant to try this because my hair despises Stearyl and Cetearyl Alcohols, but I used it anyway :giggle: and was pleasantly surprised. Moisturized very well and my hair dried soft.

Qhemet's Olive & Honey Hydrating Balm-- I love the smell and consistency of this stuff and I love adding it to EVERYTHING. Moisturizers, deep conditioners, sprays... my daughter frequently asks that I use the "honey butter moisturizer" in her hair. She likes it just as much as I do. :grin:

Qhemet's Cocoa Tree Detangling Ghee-- I looove deep conditioning with this. Leaves my hair sosososo soft and moisturized. Just don't like the scent, I'm not a fan of chocolatey hair products. :ohwell:

ON THE FENCE:

Qhemet's Moringa Tree Conditioning Ghee-- Not as all-around awesome as CTDG. Doesn't make my hair as soft and smooth, but it's still good. I mostly mix it with CTDG or AOHC to add a little umph.

Marie Dean's Calendula Hair Balm-- Not a fan of the smell and if I use too much, my hair feels weird and stiff and waxy. Less is definitely more with this stuff, but I'm heavy handed, so I don't like that. :lol:
 
New Hit:

Camille Rose Janzyn's Moisture Max Conditioner *absolutely wonderfully delicious*
Extra Dark Jamaican Black Castor Oil

Continued Hits:

Marie Dean's Olive, Wheat & Berry DC'er
Maire Dean's Red Clover & Honey Leave-In/Detangler
Claudie Fortifying Conditioner
 
CD-Monoi repairing hair mask...20min...Hair was nice & full/no breakage...



Happy Hair Growing!
 
Hit: Aubrey Organics GPB Cond. Don't know why it took me so long to try this, but my hair loves it.
 
CJ Coffee-Coco Curl Creme Lite: Like this as a refresher for dry hair, but the scent bothers me. Too fruity and overpowering for me.

CJ Smoothing Condish: Liked this as a leave-in and had tons of curls popping. It's my second choice tho, after the Argan one. Think it is thinner than that one.

Oyin Hair Dew: Tried this as a leave-in and liked it. But again, not a scent I could use often on dry hair -- it would bother me after a while too.

Oyin Frank Juice: Revisited hit. Forgot how much I liked this scent and formula. Used it as a leave-in under the Hair Dew.

Still loving CJ Beauticurls Argan and Olive Oil Condish as a leave-in. Tried it as a rinse out and it was great for that too.
 
Tried Palmer's Coconut Oil Hair Milk on my dry flat ironed hair, then sealed with Jojoba oil. This definitely made my hair feel softer and smoother. Will try again throughout the week to see if the results stay the same.
