That may be it. I tried other daily moisturizers that I sealed with JBCO and they just didn't work out for me. My hair was still dry afterward.
Hit: Suave Professionals Almond & Shea Butter Conditioner. It really gets the tangles out when left on there for about five minutes and it is also a great cowash. I'm getting lots of bang for my buck with this product.
Miss: Care Free Curl Gold. It used to be a staple back when I was in the Jherri Juice Challenge. Now it's doing nothing but highlighting the dryness. I'm gonna hold on to it. I only have a quarter of the bottle left.
Hit: DevaCurl No-Poo and One Conditioner: I love them both and they smell so good. I can literally just use the No-Poo after the gym and my hair is conditioned. Used together, they are awesome.

(Sorry this post is kind of long, maybe I need a blog guys lol)
Today was wash day so I can report some new hits!
Hits:
Carol's Daughter Koret Amen Herbal Shampoo - a friend gave this to me and I really like it! She hated it! It made my hair soft! She's relaxed and said it made her hair dry and tangly and she hated the smell! I have gotten used to herbally stuff so it didnt bother me lol
Alaffia Beautiful Curls Deep Treatment - this is a pretty good DC! It wont replace my sitrinillah but I can add it to my list of products that I can pick up locally
Nature's Gate Henna Shine - this product has hydrolyzed wheat protein in it so I didnt know how I would react to it but it made my hair really soft! I loved it! Im going to pick up more Nature's gate products! So far 2 hits from them!
Kinky Curly Curling Custard - I cut the relaxed ends off the front 1/4 of my head, weird I know but I never wear my hair down lol and I have been experimenting with all kinds of products and I luv KCCC so far and cant wait to use it on my whole head when Im done transitioning!
Miss Jessie's Curly Meringue - I may like this better than the pudding...I get great results from braiding and twisting with this product!
On-the-fence:
SheScentIt Banana Brulee - This product didnt do me wrong or anything but Im not sure if its a re-purchase or not. Im going to try it when I take my weave down next month! Im getting an install Thursday! Cant wait!
Jasmine's Shea Rinse - at first this product made my hair sooo soft when I used it as a leave in! Then I got an extreme case of desert hair and my hands felt waxy everytime I touched my hair. I didnt know if it was from this product, the JBCO or the afroveda hempseed butter, bcuz I had too much going on in my head so I will try this again!
