My hit is:
Beach Blond Life Preserve hair conditioning oil - smells nice and I think it would be great for those who find coconut too heavy and oily but I could be wrong.
[/ QUOTE ]
Are you using it as a hot oil treatment, or just as a moisturizer?? /images/graemlins/confused.gif I checked "Makeup Alley" and this stuff has gotten a lot of rave reviews... /images/graemlins/up.gif
I just bought some from Big Lots in MD for $1.99!!! I was planning on saving it for next summer (the label says to apply it before going out in the sun, or swimming) but maybe I'll crack it open before then! /images/graemlins/scratchchin.gif
[/ QUOTE ]
Same price in Chicago. I'm thinking about using it as a hot oil also. Great minds think alike /images/graemlins/grin.gif.

Hits:
1. Dove intensive moisturizing shampoo for color treated hair
2. Garnier Fructis deep fortifying conditioner.
3. Pro-Vitamin hair treatment capsules.
HUGE MISS:
Shea butter. When it dries or settles my hair clumps and it becomes impossible to detangle.

Have you tried adding olive or coconut oil to the shea butter? Once my shea butter is creamy, I apply it to damp hair and add FOTE gel.

Another Miss /images/graemlins/frown.gif --
Fantasia IC Pure Tea Shampoo. I diluted it and it was still waaaaaay too harsh for my hair.

Hits:
VO5 Stawberries and Cream Shampoo /images/graemlins/love.gif
Pantene Hydrating Curls Conditioner /images/graemlins/love.gif but I may like the RN and DMR better. We'll see.
Misses:
Elasta QP Shampoo for Relaxed Hair (just didn't QUITE do the trick).
Verdict is still out on:
Design Essentials Stimulations Conditioner
Design Essentials Deep Cleansing Shampoo
ResQ Leave In
The jury's still out because I used the DE stuff for the first time while also using the RESQ for the first time in a long time. Something went wrong and I ended up with sticky, gummy, dull hair with little movement. The comb keeps getting stuck when I try to run it through. Usually that problem is attriburtable to a leave in, so I'm assuming for now that it's the RESQ. But since I've never used the DE before I'm still not sure. I did LOVE the tinclging action of that conditioner tho, and the fact that ingredientwise, it's comparable to the UBH comditioner, which I considered trying again lately and haven't yet because I'd rather not order it online if I can help it. I'm pretty sure it's the leave in tho. I had almost a full bottle of it after about a year, and when I like a leave in that is SO not like me. I may have SOME, but usually not ALL of it. I'm gonna shelf the RESQ (again) and try the DE again to see. I'll let you know what November brings...
