PRODUCTS WE LOVE TO HATE!

[SVT]

Ohhh, I forgot to add...Hennalucent. Did absolutely nuthin for my hair.

 

[inthepink]

Aveda shampoos, conditioner and oh yes, their relaxer!
Suave - love that coconut smell but that stuff is no better than just water on my hair
V05 - see Suave
Infusium - always made my hair dry

 

[mirrormirror]

CON shampoo- the lemon and balsam really dries my hair out
Dominican conditioners- overrated
Elasta QP mango butter- the smell bothers me
LeKair cholesterol- it always tangles my hair

 

[PrincessM]

 

[Ire_manzi]

Aubrey organics shampoos such as blue camomile and white camellia and jasmine - made hair hard and tangle

Infusium 23- makes hair hard

Elasta QP mango butter- smells good but made hair dry

Aussie conditioner- not very moisturising

Pink oil- made hair hard to comb and style

mane and tail conditioner- tangled hair and made it hard

Lekair Cholesterol- tangled and made hair hard after washing it off

All of ORS products- hardened and tangled my hair

 

[Ire_manzi]

Gee, how could i forget Aphogee. All their products make my hair tangle and hard

 

[Chichi]

Pantene=tangled, stiff hair

Chichi

 

[pebbles]

I really hate the Aveda sap moss shampoo and conditoner. Not that it didn't detangle my hair, it did. But I really hate the smell. I used it only once and I've never picked it up again.

 

[marla]

Infusium 23
Anything John Frieda
Nexxus Humectress

That's cute, and I agree with you!

 

[inthepink]

Pebbles...the Aveda sap moss shampoo and conditioner completely dried out my hair and scalp even thought it's supposed to be moisturizing! NOT!

 

[ravenmerlita]

Nexxus Humectress and Biosilk killed my hair.

 

[pebbles]

hairlove, I'm sorry to hear that. Aveda is one purchase I truly regret. The smell really bothers me.

 

[ladymarmalade]

I think different hair types take to different products which is obvious from this thread!!!

 

[MWilson569]

aww...I love aveda sap moss...it makes my hair soft and light...sorry to hear yall didnt like it...but I HATE Queen Helen's Cholestorol ..it dries out my hair.

 

[sassygirl125]

Carolyn Gray (blackwomansguide.com) says the Sap Moss products have made it easier for her to stretch out her relaxers. I figured, "Wow! They must make the hair really soft!" I found a salon in my area that sells the products and I gave the shampoo the sniff test...

One of the stylists laughed and said, "I know it smells like potting soil, but it's a really good product." They didn't have any samples, so it stayed on the shelf.

I'm still curious about the Curessence products...

 

[Peachtree]

Proclaim Activator Gel was horrible on my relaxed hair. However, I'm gonna see how it works on my natural hair... i may just like it

 

[myco]

Queen Helene dried out my hair and made it tangly. I ended up finishing the bottle by mixing it with oil and using as a pre-shampoo.

Mizani Moisturefuse was very hit or miss. One day it worked, the next time it didn't.
Nexxus conditioners didn't do anything to justify the price.

 

[beana3]

motions moisture plus
Mizani moisturfuse (even though i took some at the meet to try my luck, next wash i'll let you ladies know)
Lustrasilk cholesterols..really disliked them
Profectiv creams
At one with nature silky setting foam ... i REALLY hated this one, they had good ingredients though
i was disgsted by my Humecto experience..

 

[karly]

Motions Moisture Plus......it was not moisturizing at all. It made my hair really hard. I had to follow-up with my keracare humecto.

Oh, and Aphogee treatment.......I know it's suppose to make your hair hard but it is wayyyyy to strong for my hair. I didn't like it all.

 

[L.A. Woman]

Affirm Regular lye relaxer (used consistently for 1 year and ended up with the dreaded chewed out look by the end) - way too harsh for my hair

Motions Moisture Plus conditioner

Burt's bees Avocodo treatment (By far the most horrible hair treatment ever made) - I could've put Krazy glue in my hair for the same effect

Redken's Anti-Snap Treatment (sickly sweet candy water)

Aphogee (ineffective and stinks)

Infusium 23 (great for short term, but hair wears out over the long term)

Nexxus Humectress (like flushing money down the toilet, but not nearly as fun)

 

[Allandra]

Well, it looks as though Infusium 23 is the winner here so far.

 

[jaibee]

Yeah I was not pleased by the at one line. I bought all the products once and they smelled great but they did nothing for my hair.

Pink Oil "moisturizer". The more Pink I applied to my hair, the dryer it got. I finally got the point

Nexxus Humectress - ee-ew!! Hair got so hard I could have sanded my floors at home with my hair.

Those are me hates too

 

[caress]

ORS Hair Mayo, Mizani Moisturefuse, and Nexxus Humectress. These conditioners didn't hurt my hair but they did NOTHING for my hair.

I thought I was the only one that hated this. My hair came out in clumps when I used this, and the worst part is that I was foolish enough to keep on using this.

Peachtree,

I just purchased the proclaim activator gel but it seemed to make my hair crunchy. I am going to try it on a wash day to make sure that it was THE product that caused the crunchiness. It's much cheaper than the fantasia gel I have (1.29 vs. 4.99) so I'm hoping it works!

 

[Tee]

-KeraCare Humecto Conditioner (sooooooo disappointed by this product!)
-Mizani Moisturefuse
-John Frieda Relax Ripple Spray
-Smooth and Shine Serum (waaaay too sticky!)
-Wild Growth Oil ('bout knocked me out, it smelled so bad!)

 

[mrsdst]

-John Frieda Relax Ripple Spary (an I even followed the directions on the package and applied the serum 1st)
-Anthing with petro or mineral oil
-Shampoos with SLS and the like
-Motions-They just don't work for me

 

[luvhair]

Moisturfuse-- it worked well at first but it doesnt do a damn thing for my hair now!
