I'm on the hunt for new HG status level leave ins.

Am natural 4a, Mbl, super super thick hair. I've been pretty simple with my routine and been rotating between Oyin hair dew, Shea butta, kc knot today, aloe Vera juice. Shea butta is really the OG. The rest I can do without.

But looking for recommendations that would help soften my hair, make detangling easier... Something HG level.

This has been the best leave in I have ever found.... Kimmaytube Leave In Recipe

1 oz Knot Today Leave-In (or 2 tablespoons of YOUR preferred leave-in)
2 tablespoons of (Whole leaf version) Aloe Vera Juice with a pH 4.0 or 4.5
2 teaspoons of Castor Oil (optional. I sometimes do without it)
2 teaspoons of Jojoba Oil Mix well.

I remember when she first came out with that recipe. I don't think I've ever tried it though. Doesn't she have her own product line or something?

I typically rotate between Oyin Hair Dew in winter, and Curl Junkie Curl Smoothing Lotion in summer. Curl Junkie is better at helping me detangle. Some others I really like are:
- ORI Essentials Leave-in
- Silk Dreams Wheat Germ Butter Conditioner

Some I haven't used in awhile, but used to like
- Karen Body Beautiful Sweet Ambrosia Leave-in
- Purabody Naturals (the name changed)

She does have her own line LUV Naturals but it's easier for me to mix my own from her recipe. I have like 12 bottles of kinky curly knot today .

Spray leave-in: Redken 25
Cream leave-in: It's A 10

Both provide a lot of slip and moisture.

I love Annabelle's Perfect Blend leave-ins. They smell delicious and if you use it in conjunction with the Cupachu Avocado moisturizer it feels really moisturizing.

If you're hair loves shea butter I recommend Jessicurl Too Shea Extra Moisturizing Conditioner as a leave in. I use this to set my hair for braid-outs and for maintenance on my ends (spritz ends with water then twist). It softens and detangles my hair and leaves a nice shine. The best part is that it goes on clear and they sell a fragrance free version. The ingredients are basically shea butter, oils, herbs and water.

I'm using Miss Jessie's leave in condish right now. It's a great product but I used Miss Jackie's before I used it and am leaning heavily towards the Miss Jackie's Quench leave-in. It just does it for my hair. TBH I have no idea what number hair I have. It's coarse, nappy, smooth, curly, kinky, slinky, curly, wavy...yup all on one head!

The Quench has proven to be an excellent base product under my Eco Styler.

My hair dis-likes glycerin and shea so I use Kinky Curly at half strength, I have done it was rose water and regular water. I also like Curl Junkie Beauticurls also at half strength.

Organix quench moisture drenched leave-in - plus you can get it at Walmart or target.

Eden bodyworks coconut leave-in, you can get that at sally's. Both are reasonably priced as well
