What protein do you use weekly? Are there any good moisturizers with hydrolyzed keratin? I've been using Redken Anti Snap (has wheat protein) as my leave in after I shampoo and DC/protein reconstruct. But what about moisturizers during the week?@Froreal3 my hair stays pretty moisturized during the week (I cowash after every workout) so I definitely need the protein reset weekly.
I used to use the Joico Leave In Reconstructor then I stopped. It has Hydrolized Keratin so that set the stage each week. I would seal with a butta along with APB's Hair Lotion. Once I cut my hair I didn't care but I do want to grow my top out a little more (I have a Mohawk now).What protein do you use weekly? Are there any good moisturizers with hydrolyzed keratin?

Wheat protein is more moisturizing for my hair. Keratin is strengthening for it. I put the Colorful underneath my DC weekly, but I'm thinking I want something with keratin to use as a moisturizer during the week as well.I used to use the Joico Leave In Reconstructor then I stopped.

I was also using DCs with Hydrolized Wheat Protein but realized my hair likes Keratin. So, I am going to add the Colorful Neutral Protein Filler to a few of my current DCs to use them up but will keep SSI Repair and Restore Mask and APB Bamboo mask in rotation, eventually using them exclusively (adding a dab of the Colorful Neutral Protein Filler to the APB because of the Keratin).
Hmmmm, I wonder if APB could create a hair cream or moisturizer with keratin in it?
@flyygirlll2, your hair looks worthy. Love it hon.Morning Ladies!
I’ve been busy with work and just life in general lately. Thank you @Shay72 for mentioning that vendor on Etsy who sells whipped Shea Butter. I received it this week and it was nicely packaged with a note from her. This is by far the best Shea Butter mix I’ve used in my hair. It is whipped to perfection and is so creamy. It just melts into my hair
Other Shea Butter mixes I’ve used in the past tend to just coat my hair but not this one. I’m also loving Anita Grant’s Curl Conditioning Hair Milk. I only got a 2 oz to try but I will be getting the 5 0z one next time.
Exactly. Wheat and oat proteins are softening for me also.Wheat protein is more moisturizing for my hair. Keratin is strengthening for it. I put the Colorful underneath my DC weekly, but I'm thinking I want something with keratin to use as a moisturizer during the week as well.

By the way, spill the beans on this etsy vendor you speak of please. Your e-friend need a link pretty please.
You're welcome and thank you too for the link.
@NaturallyATLPCHI just want premade right now. Jakeala's SAHCP is good, I'll plow through that for now to be on the SB sided unless I purchase Sunshine's. (Or another SAHCP)
@Shay72Just bought my Coconut Confidence in Strawberry Heaven scent with a gift card I got for Christmas . It wasn’t wrapped it ain’t like I opened it early.
The picture shows she put the butter in her cart. So I’m guessing she bought it?@Saludable84
What's the story? Obviously, I don't get it?
Yes @Saludable84 I am one of those . It has been sitting in my cart for a couple of days. I really want something with castor oil in it though. That is why I keep hesitating.Morning.
I went to the link and

IIRC you like olive oil too right? Cause that’s in there as well. I have this one too and while I think it’s nice I prefer the one by Sunshine.

@AggieHey hun. What are you up to right now? I was at church earlier and now home trying to catch up on posts here plus I have some house chores to do so in between I'll be doing both
Alright Miss Mixtress!I'll wait for alla' ya'll's reviews on Sunshine. I got Jakeala's Shea Amla which was 'cheaper' using LHCF and I got APB's.
Between those and my DIY whiched I've called SheaVeda - so if Ya'll hear me referring to SheaVada - you'll know that's my Blend....
My next two batches = x1 4oz w/Strong Roots Pimento Oil and x1 4oz with Ayurvedic Oil Blend.
Alright Miss Mixtress!
