Hits (from the past 4 or so weeks)
- Adding isinglass to my Irish Moss deep treatment. Makes my hair softer and smoother along with the moss.
- Redken Real Control Conditioner
- Matrix Colorlast mask
- Giovanni Tea Tree Triple Treat conditioner - this is a keeper. Soft, smooth shiny hair at a great cost.
- Deep Steep Repairing conditioner - did the same as Giovanni Tea Tree but it has proteins in it to help strengthen
- Minimal hair breakage since my last trim in July. I've been having normal shedding and that's basically it... I can count on 1 hand how many broken hairs I have each time I handle/wash my hair.
Continued hits:
- Steaming
- Irish Moss
- Aloe Vera Juice - soothes my scalp
- Never having to throw a product away because if it doesn't work on my hair, it works on my daughters'
Misses:
- Trader Joes Nourish Spa Conditioner - didn't moisturize or make my hair as soft as I hoped it would
- Giovanni Smooth As Silk, 50/50 and Ultra Hydrating conditioners - same as TJ
- Millcreek Biotin conditioner - made my hair slightly hard but I'll probably use it as a protein treatment with my relaxer since Hydrolyzed Keratin is so high on the list
That's all I can think of right now... I probably won't be trying any new products/ingredients until next month...
