[Legend]

Hits:

--I resurrected my MTG and Calm Coat mix and wondered why I stopped using it during the summer. It makes my hair buttery soft when used with the S-Curl.

--Recurring fav.: ORS Replenishing Pack. All the slip I need.

--Ting-Ting Head Massager. I got lazy with my manual massages each evening and decided to get this apparatus. I don’t know if it does anything for my scalp, but it does wonders with my mood. I love it!!! Oooooo...ahhhhhh!!!!!

Miss:
--Pantene Extra Liso. I broke down and tried it out (I purchased it for next to nothing, thank goodness). After two uses, I determined my hair did not like this stuff at all. I actually had some breakage from it!!!

Hits: Homemade Amla/Shikakai/Cayenne Oil
I love this stuff, plan on makign a bigger batch once my order of oils comes in.

Misses: Nexxus Humectress
Apparently my hair REALLY REALLY hates mineral oil - that's the only thing that's in it that I don't normally use....

I should have many more next month, as a good sized order of hair stuff is winging it's way towards me.

 

[crlsweetie912]

SUPER DUPER HIT!: Fantasia Olive Oil serum! On the ends when rollersetting, and on my wet hair during wrapping. Silky smooth bouncy hair!

I am in love!

 

[Nanyanika]

HITS:
Pantene clarifying ---cleaned my hair beautifully
Creme of nature shampoo green label --i forgot how moisturising this is
Keracare essential oils for hair--beautiful fragrance and moisturising
Aphogee two minute keratin reconstructor-- left my hair so soft
Coconut oil--excellent shine and seals my ends

MISSES:

Keracare humecto creme conditioner
Rage and react rinse
motions color return

 

[Candiss]

Hit: H2O Mizani Night treatment-this is a great product so far. I normally don't use products with Mineral Oil but this had a nice consistency and smell so I took a chance and I like it a lot. My hair is extremely dry so I use this every day and my hair is moisturized without greasiness. Keep in mind, this is NOT the same as the Mizani Rose H2O hair dress. I hated that stuff and the smell and it irritated my scalp.

Miss: Vitapoint cream in a tube. It was making my hair hard and greasy. I'm glad I didn't buy the big jar.

Letitia: Give us the scoop! You know the PJ's gotta get the full 911 (so we can go out tomorrow and purchase this!)

giggles. and you know I am the biggest PJ. I read about this product here on LHCF (of course.) lol It was on the Amel Luarrieux. thread. So I went ahead and ordered it online. I purchased 2 secents. MONOI TIPANIE and MONOI COCO (Coconut)

I have only used the Tipanie and I love it. It smells nice and not overpowereing and it's not as heavy as other oils. So I know this will be my oil for awhile. I was going to try the KeraCare oils but I only paid 8.95 each for these plus shipping and LOVE them. I think I will use that extra Keracare money on something else now. lol.

Here is the link for the Oils. ---> Click Here

I have the Keracare and I got them from Irbys for a really good price for the Big 8oz bottle (15.95 compared to 19.99 elsewhere). I love them, but it's pricey, so I use sparingly. I don't think you can ever have too many oils, and I have heard wonderful things about this one. Off to check it out!

ETA: What's the tipanie smell like?

 

[Ms Red]

HITS: Cream of Nature Shampoo (Red Label), Olive Oil Moisturizing Hair Lotion, Pantene Intensive Hair Moisturizing Masque

MISS: Cholesterol Conditioner (making my hair hard for some reason)

The site compared it to plumeria. It's very light tho. Not overpowering.
(I like the Plumeria line at Bath and Body works so I decided to try this one out.)

I will have to check out Irby. They are selling the bottles of oil for 24.99 in my BSS. I had to pass on that.
