I absolutely LOVE it!! I have been using this for years and it never let's me down. I have invested in the large bottle now.
I use it as a leave in after washing my hair then use it as a softer when my hair gets dry during the week.
Spray, Shea moisture masque then JBCO and protective style.

DC with Joico kPAK conditioner followed by ORS Replenishing Conditioner
and Spray diluted Curl activator + hemp seed oil from root to tip.

Using some of my new BF purchases (mainly DCs) this month, but most products are staying the same.
Shampoo: SM JBCO shampoo
Cowash: SM Purification Mask
Prepoo: Bekura Vanilla Whiskey topped with ST Power to the Prepoo
DCs: Bekura YAM Nectar, APB Conditioning Soufflé, Purabody Naturals Chocolate Hair Smoothie (kinda hoping that I don't like it since it has been discontinued!!)
Leave-ins: My usual line up (ST Sorrell Kink Drink, Oyin Hair Dew, ST Knot Butter)
Styler: ST Mane Thick Creamy Slick 7 day styler. My sister loves this, so I am giving it a try.
Style: Trying out bantu knot outs this month
Technique: Bringing back oil rinses
Updates to the bolded:
SM Purification Mask- I have come to the conclusion that some others have: my hair and scalp just does better with shampoo washes. Giving away my remaining PMs for Christmas gifts and sticking to weekly shampoo washes.
Bekura Vanilla Whiskey/APB Conditioning Souffle- Switching these two. The Bekura is going back into the DC pile and I will use up the APB as a prepoo. I did NOT like it as a DC on damp hair. Performs slightly better on dry hair. I will use it up but it will not be a repurchase.

Whew...I am officially a recovered product junky. I will be sticking w/the Kinky Curly products as I have about 4 containers each, and the mixes really make my curls pop. Not sure if I'll repurchase Heaven In Hair when it runs out this month.
ACV/distilled water/agave nectar
DevaCurl Heaven In Hair mixed w/coconut milk and black strap molasses
Terressentials Mud Wash, thinned out w/coconut water
Kinky Curly Knot Today, thinned out w/coconut water

It didn't take you long to recover.

Well I tried DevaCurl products in April and nothing had EVER helped to reveal my curl pattern like they did. Then I gave Kinky Curly a second shot and got the same results. I came to the realization that I don't need more than two brands, and trying everything just adds to my stash (though my co-workers are thankful for my gifting free hair products). In the end it's about will power and sticking w/what you know works every single time. Also I got tired of being disappointed after trying something new that someone else raved about.

Update:
Used up Shea Moisture Manuka rinse out conditioner. I have 1 backup but I pulled out a "use up product" before I open the new bottle. Using Curl Junkie strengthening conditioner. I plan to use it as a pre-poo, a rinse out as well as an additive to my powder treatments. Should be gone in 1 month.

I think from here on out I'm gonna stick to Shea Moisture. I always find myself returning to their products so I might as well just stick with em!

I do want to get me a large jar of the custard tho. It works perfect for me with the Shea Moisture smoothie, and also the hair milk

Yeah, the leave-in and custard were on sale last year, and I got more than I needed. I bought the large jars. At the rate I'm going, I should not have to buy any kinky curly products for the next year! I actually didn't like either at first...now I love them.I do want to get me a large jar of the custard tho. It works perfect for me with the Shea Moisture smoothie, and also the hair milk

For some reason the leave in only works well for detangling for me. It doesn't have enough moisture in it for me to leave it in. I'm thinking about giving it another try bc I'm thinking maybe I didn't leave enough of it in?

Could be. aketafitgirl mentioned in one of her youtube videos that she uses extra KCKT in the winter time because her hair was drying out. My hair is low to normal porosity, so more would just cake and flake.

Okay, so I went back to look and I've definitely been sticking to this. I've been using the oil on my scalp, the leave ins every other day, and when I cleansed them last week, I used the Trader Joe's shampoo on my scalp.

That Curl Junkie conditioner had only 1/4 product left so I used it up today for a pre-poo and mixing it with my protein treatment.
Also used up Shea Moisture Manuka Honey Masque. (Staple) No backups but I have a $50 Target gift card that I plan on using next month and stocking up on this masque.
I'll try to squeeze in another wash day before this month is up...missing my Joico Moisture Recovery Balm. Love the feel and the smell it gives to my hair after roller setting.

Used up the grape seed oil mix and am now using the Softee Indian Hemp
Still using the Nairobi Detoxifying Shampoo but experimented with 4Naturals Detangling Shampoo. The latter is a no go. Probably going to experiment with the Pure & Natural shampoo I got from the Dollar Tree next.
Finished the Nuance Blackcurrant Masque and so far experimented with Macadamia Natural Oil Deep Conditioner and Moisturizing Rinse, 2 Chi Products and CurlyKids Deep Conditioner. The last is the only one that really worked. Gonna give the Macadamia Natural Oil Moisturizing Rinse one more try as well as use 4 Naturals Detangling Conditioner, Joico Moisture Recovery Balm and Alterna Caviar Replenishing Masque once each before the end of this year. Getting my relaxer after a 4 month stretch in January and I'm going to see how these do on my new growth, especially in the winter.
Back to my Aveeno Leave in Treatment. I tried the Cantu Kids Detangler and liked it but not as moisturizing as the Aveeno. May try Taliah Waajid's Protective Mist Bodifier before the end of the year...
