[chebaby]

major hit: haydratherma naturals moisture boosting shampoo, conditioner, follicle invigorator and groth lotion.

 

[MissLawyerLady]

HIT: Hairveda Vatika Frosting!

I love smelling like cake!

 

[Shay72]

Miss: Mizani H20 Night time tx--no matter what I did my hair ended up crunchy. Moved on

Hit: Giovanni Direct Leave in--I use it in wet or dry hair. My hair seems to respond better to a creamy leave in vs a spray in

BIG FAT MISS--Using Pantene's Relaxed & Natural Mask for cowashing! Yuck Yuck Yuck! Nasty roughed up cuticles...I can't explain this but it works great when I use the traditional way.

BIG HIT
Original Bottle of Aphogee EFA Oil
Added 1 teaspoon to Phyto Index 2 Relaxer and hair turned out great,more smooth and silky feel to hair.
CB Smoothe 5-n-1 Reconstructor

 

[bklyncurly]

Adding salt to conditioner
Adding coconut oil to conditioner (why am I JUST doing this?)
Jane Carter Nourish and Shine
Hollywood Beauty Castor Oil
Jane Carter spray leave-in (I forgot the name)

I've never heard of adding salt to conditioner. What exactly does this do? I have extremely dry hair, so I'm a little apprehensive.

ALL HITS:

Sally's bootlegged/knockoff Wen---

**'Hair One' Hair Cleanser and Conditioner--(Dry Hair--Olive Oil)

My 4Beedebeed hair LOVES this! I wish the container was bigger though.
If this stuff is anywhere near how good Wen is.....then I truly understand the love it is receiving on this board.


**Adding grapeseed oil to my prepoo. This stuff is so light!

**Quantum Moisturizing Conditioner

**Bee Mine Mango Hair Growth Serum

**Aphogee Keratin 2 minute reconstructor. (used weekly--and longer than 2 minutes) Where has this stuff been all my life?!!



***Continued hit. Qhemet Amla and Olive Heavy Cream as a leave-in. A lil dab will do ya!
I really need to buy a coupla containers of this every month and stock up.
My Lacio Lacio, and beloved Profectiv Break Free leave-in's are just collecting dust!



MISS:

Sabino Moisture Block.

Eh...
Still a miss for me. Doesn't 'de-frizz' my rollersets at all, so I stopped using it. Maybe I'm not using it right.
I'll try it again when I decide to let the rollers go and wear my hair straight.

Gurl...don't do this to a PJ! I've been salivating over this one! I'll pick some up this weekend. I hope it works because I refuse to get WEN.

LOVE this stuff! Isn't it the best? And cheap too!

Could we be product twins? I always have my heavy cream on hand. BTW I think they are coming up with a replacement product for Olive detangler.

THis was a miss for me for rollersetting. But if you use it with direct heat i.e. blow dryer or flat iron then the results are amazing!

at your responses!!! LOL!! That Aphogee is my miracle product! and yes...give that bootleg Wen a try. I'm sure your hair will love it!

I tried the Qhemet Heavy Cream a year or so ago--then put it down after I ran out.

When I bought it again, my hair, and I wondered why I had stopped using it in the first place!!!!!

I have the Burdock Root also...but I don't care for it that much. It's not thick enough for me...

I've never tried the Olive Detangler. I'll put that on my list!! and thanks for the tip on the Sabino!
