[candibaby]

Product: Nexxus Humectress
/images/graemlins/up.gif or /images/graemlins/down.gif~ /images/graemlins/up.gif
How Used~ I use it with heat (hooded dryer) for 20-30 minutes. I use a GOOD amount, especially on my ends.
Leaves Hair~ Very moisturized, soft, and bouncy.
Used when~ Every wash. (1x per week)

Product: Nexxus Ensure
/images/graemlins/up.gif or /images/graemlins/down.gif~ /images/graemlins/up.gif
How Used~ I use it without heat after I use my regular moisturizing conditioner. I use it as a detangler and to close my hair cuticles (it's acidifying).
Leaves hair~ Tangle Free, shiny, and bouncy.
Used when~ After I rinse out my conditoner every week when I wash.

Product: ORS Carrot Oil
/images/graemlins/up.gif or /images/graemlins/down.gif~ /images/graemlins/up.gif
How Used~ I use it as a daily moisturizer. It has protein in it so I don't like to use too much of it. I also use it on my scalp once per week (usually right after I wash). It smells bad at first, but you get used to it. It really does strengthen your hair and keep splits at bay.
Leaves hair~ Moisturized and (I think) stronger.
Used when~ Daily for the first 3/4 days after washing.

Product: B&B Oil It UP
/images/graemlins/up.gif or /images/graemlins/down.gif~ /images/graemlins/up.gif
How Used~ I mix this with Suave Milk and Honey Conditioner and use it as a prepoo sometimes before I wash. I also rub a little bit on the last 2 inches of my hair immediately after my last rinse when washing. I also use it everyday after I apply my daily moisturizer (rub a little on hands and run them through my ends/hair)
Leaves hair~ shiny & i think it helps seal in the moisturizers.. read that somewhere
Used when~ Before shampooing, after my final rinse, and daily after applying moisturizer.
