@ Vizion

You're relaxed and you used Silicon Mix....how does that work for your hair? Where do you purchase it? What brand? I'm guessing but I believe I have 4c or 4z erplexed and I want to order but wanted a review on a fully RELAXED head of hair. TY

Also when ladies talking about moisturizers, daily moisturizing, etc. they are mainly naturals? What do you think? I have healthy thick hair and I like the natural-swaying look but I think I get confused when I read some of the regimens because my hair HATES to be wet....meaning moisturizing lotions, being wet (conditioner, MN, etc.) over night. I may add a little ORS Olive of Oil and Chi Silk Infusion after my cowash but that's about it! BTW....On my way to your Relaxed Hair Health Blog...

TIA!!!!
