Hey y'all, just wanted to tell you that I updated my Fotki photos to show how my hair turned out when I used the NTM line. Check them out and tell me what you think.

Looking good Cincysweetie! You should've heard me lol when Ra commented...don't use the mask...use the DDC...she is not playing! And what do you mean short ponytail! I wish mine was thick like that...I have one...I just want it thicker like yours!
And I love the waves...my hair kinda does that too when it's moisturized...and I think it's so cute...makes me feel like I've got Indian in my family somewhere in the tree...well, I do...but...u know what I mean..LOL.
Anyhoo! Go NTM!

Thank you all for your compliments! Mona, you are too funny!Poohbear said:CS, Your hair looks AWESOME! I made a lotta comments in your album!
Actually, I am not sure what my hair type is, I could never figure that whole thing out. Maybe I am 4a/b? Dunno!

Cincysweetie, your hair looks so good and healthy. I wish I can get mine wavy like that. That was a nice full pony too.

Sylver, your hair doesn't wave up?? One day I gotta take a pic (I'm the known
hater of taking pics)...when mine has that wavy thing happening....
I think it happens when the hair is wet...some World of Curls, a lil mango butter...and wa-la....
If my sad head can do it...I know your hair can go there...lol

Thanks again Sylver. I really liked that method you have in your Fotki. It was just so simple that I could actually do it and have pretty decent results. I also appreciate the hair typing thing, I've always wondered. I thought I was in the 3 range somewhere, but not exactly sure where. I am going to take a pic of my nape area and post that so you all can tell me what that area is. It's slightly different than my edges I think. Anyway, as far as the wavy thing...IDK? I think it just happens, I don't ever brush my hair in the front to smooth it. I just put in my products and smooth is with my hands. Then I put in some MB and tie it down and let it dry like that.sylver2 said:

MonaLisa said:I had a hair type thinking pondering moment ....and it would be nice if this line had a moisturizer. I don't mean the leave-in...I mean a stand alone moisturizer.
MNT has one...I wish they did too...I would be so straight.
oh well...
so u wouldn't consider the NTM Silk Touch leave-in cream as a moisturizer???

I can only answer for myself, I know Sylver uses this on dry hair (and I've used it on my pigtails like this) - but I primarily use this as my leave in on wet hair...like one does Lacio Lacio or Salerm.
I, myself, haven't heard of anybody using Lacio Lacio or Salerm as a moisturizer (could be there are, I just haven't heard it).
I like to have a stand alone moisturizer that is specifically created for use on dry hair for daily moisturizing purposes...with the option to use on dry or wet hair (like I have with my woojee cream, my BB Oil Moisturizer, my mango butter).
But you know your hair best and if you would like to utilize the leave-in as a moisturizer, you should by all means go for it.
This sounded jumbled...hope it was clearer than it sounded.

Oh! I didnt know NTM leave-in cream was like Salerm21 or Lacio Lacio. I just bought some and felt it and it's not as thick as Salerm21. It feel creamy and more like a lotion...well, it's a cream!
I plan on using it like sylver2 by applying it to my hair before putting my scarf on really tight at night. I also plan on using it like CaramelHonee with the Maxiglide. But overall, I got what you were saying!

LOL..okay! Cool.
And yes...it's not as thick as Salerm, I agree.Enjoy your experimentation.

I just bought a stash (two of each). I put the leave-in on my hair and a little more on the ends and put my hair up in one roller, tied with a silk scarf and couldn't wait to see the results this am. Well its looks so moisturized and soft. I really like it!
I will be using it like a regular moisturizer at night and in the day. I really like my Salerm 21 so I don't know if I would switch to this on damp/wet hair.
I plan to use this line when I wash my hair on Wednesdays (Shampoo DDC or Mask and serum and leave in) and see how my hair likes it.
I will continue with my Salerm 21 on Sat. my domincan salon visit day although I may add the serum after my rollerset is dry and prior to wrapping my hair.

I don't like John Frieda's relax serum either. It did nothing for my hair. I just got the serum and plan to try it on damp and dry hair.

Allandra said:Well, I can certainly tell you that 'my' hair loves the serum./QUOTE]
I know Pookey....I mean Allandra. My hair loves it too. I just finished going through my NTM ritual....I swear to the heavens I thought about you when I was putting the serum on my hair...LOL. It was like a crack high...
To my NTM heads...Mo has realized...that NTM has become my main moisturizing conditioner...I have been..and still am a lover of Humecto and most def. gonna keep as my rotating moisturizing conditioner...but..my primary use I realized has been the NTM. it love my hair..and my hair loves it back...and I have accepted that.

I'm on board...haven't bought the shampoo, I'm an Elucence girl but the Daily Deep Conditioner is a keeper fo' sho'! I'm liking the Leave-In Cream more and more too!
However, the serum, I was not able to detect any difference in my after having applied it. But, I only used it twice so I shall give it a few more attempts before I throw in the two. The Mask isn't bad either, just not quite as nice as the DDC.
IMHO!!

Awwww my girls Cincy and LaNecia...thanks for showing the ole NTM some love....(it took a bashing recently...)
I did a condition wash with the DDC the other day and my hair loved it as well...I plan on doing that until I hit week 16 - I would stretch longer like Sylver...but I wanna toss my do a lil for my b'day...
and LaNecia...I actually like the mask mixed with the DDC for my lil treat. Everybody is not a fan of the mask..but I don't have a problem with it. I have abnormal hair...
Long live...NTM....DDC...

Ha ha no prob showing NTM some love. (And it was not a deserved bashing, might I add). Anyway, I totally could go 16 weeks having the DDC by my side for co washes, but I just can't wait to relax...so 13 weeks here I come!MonaLisa said:
I used to use the shampoo, daily deep conditioner and deep recovery mask, along with the silk-touch leave in cream. I thought they were great, especially since I have like a "z" pattern or tight S-curl type of new growth. They were awesome for manageability. I don't really use the conditioner and shampoo anymore because I've switched to Nexxus, which is better for me (all the products support each other). I still use the Silk-Touch Leave In Cream religiously.
