Hi lovely ladies!!

I was wondering if you can recommend some products that aren't heavy. I am on a PJ spree but I have learned that heavy products don't sit well with my 2c low porosity hair I'm a bit protein sensitive and if Shea is too high on the list it doesn't work great for me (though with rinse out products I can tolerate heavier butters or oils more... For leave in stuff, lighter is better).

I generally have liked SSI products and just ordered a bunch for the mothers day sale

Any recs are much appreciated I love this community and it's helped my hair improve so much!
Thanks!

Mielle Organics are totally lightweight.

And they are having a 30% Mothers Day Sale.

Even the Almond & Mint Oil is absolutely totally weight-less.

Hydroquench Greaseless Moisture and APB Hair Lotion come to mind.

Theorie Argan Oil hair serum..I thought it would be thick, but it is super lightweight and I use it on my ends before wrapping my hair at night

Oh this is an awesome thread-- I'm 4c but I'm also protein sensitive, and have only recently found shea butter products that my hair can tolerate!

You already know that SheScentIt Cococream leave in is a great lighter weight leave in. Anabelle's Perfect Blends (APB) leave ins are a great non-glycerin alternative to the SSI.
