I just wanted to share with everyone that I rollerset my hair yesterday and I used the Giovanni conditioner mixed with the aloe vera gel. I did not know how it was going to turn out but I figured if it was too bad I was just wear a bun until I had time to rewash....ANYWAYS my hair come out so silkly, bouncy and shiny. I did not even need to add oil to it but a added a little just out of habit. It is still bouncy today and I am LOVING it. Not one roller came out frizzy or wavy. It was just perfect.
THANKS SHERRYLOVE!

did you use the aubrey organics aloe vera gel??????? other brands of aloe will clump up or curdle because they contain synthetic thickeners .......

I COSIGN!!!
I have used the Giovanni Direct Leave-In (which is different from the Stay-In) 3 times now and I have definately found my staple. The thing that sets it apart from other leave-ins is its lasting power. My hair feels silky until my next wash (1 week). Thank you big time Sherrylove for this rec! (even though you use the stay-in when I went to VShop I saw the leave-in and thought it was the same product and purchased)
Just in case anyone was wondering, I pour 2 oz. of the AO Aloe Vera Gel into the Giovanni bottle when I roller set I add a little Wild Growth Oil(just trying to finish the bottle won't be purchasing again) to the mixture in my hands and apply to my hair in sections and roll. This is a keeper.

These are the ingredients The Vitamin Shoppe lists for the Direct Leave In:
Aqueous (water) extracts of rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis) oil, nettle (urtica dioica oil, thyme (thymus vulgaris) oil, birch leaf (butela alba) oil, chamomile (anthemis nobilus flower) oil, clary (salvia sclarea), lavender (lavandula angustifolia), coltsfoor leaf (tussilago farfara), yarrow (achillea millefolium) oil, mallow (malva sylvestris), horsetail (equistetum arvense) oil, soybean protein (glycine soja), cetyl alcohol (plant derived), tocopherol (vitamin E), trace minerals, citric acid (corn), sodium hydroxymethylglycinate, grapefruit seed (citrus derived).
Is this information correct? How would you describe its scent? How is it different from the Stay In?

it is actually the same product... they changed "stay in" to "leave in."

you can order from www.vitaminshoppe.com, or ask a sales associate at the vitaminshoppe to order it for you (it's cheaper this way). NYCchild--when you try aubrey's aloe, you will notice the difference.

i think i may need to clear up some obvious confusion here.....i have been using giovanni leave in conditioner for six years now. when i began using it, it was called the direct stay in conditioner w/ many herbal extracts. i would say within the past year, the company added more oil to the formulation and maybe a couple of other ingredients and renamed it direct leave in conditioner. ladies, there is no longer a conditioner named stay in it has been changed to leave in....so in essence when i stated they changed the direct stay in to direct leave in,,,,i was correct.....just think of the leave in as an upgrade...

Re: thanks Sherry!
Okay, you guys have me curious here...do any of you use the giovanni as a leave in even when you don't roller set? Is it good for all drying methods? I was thinking of getting the nexxus headress because so many people like it...but does anyone know how the two compare?

Re: thanks Sherry!
I have only tried it with the roller set so I am not sure. I also have not tried the headress. From what I have heard about the headress it seems like apples and oranges to me.

Re: thanks Sherry!
Ladies!!! Where else can I get Aubrey's products in Westchester. I went to Yonkers today and picked up the Direct leave in but i forgot the aloe vera gel, Sherrylove or anyone else, which is another alternative aloe vera gel that I can get and will work just as well. As a matter of fact, how does the leave in work by itself?

Thanks for the reply, I'll probably be pming you or paging you in about a month to ask you how you use it..ie..how much aloe vera gel you put in it..and do you put the aloe vera directly into the conditioner or do you put it in a separate container..feel free to pm me now if you have the chance!
