This is a forgotten gem. I think Leobody05 (I think that's her name) boosted this hair spray up back in the day.

Finally got around to ordering more DC.
I have been finger detangling via Naptural85 method and I really like it now! But I am getting withdrawals from my favorite paddle brush
I really am feening for it. But my hair feels softer now and is more defined, less SSKS, less poofy/bulky. Super well behaved! We shall see if I cave lol

Today at the black-owned BSS (I'm just there to see what the Camille Rose Naturals growth serum smells like), a woman with a nice curly wig announces to the clerk, "Tell your momma to reorder Beauty For Us (or something like that) peppermint oil and rosemary oil."
So I say, "You recommend that brand? Why? I'm looking to purchase peppermint and rosemary oil for a DIY growth oil/serum." She says, "Yes: You're on the right track. You need those. Those will grow your hair." We talk about natural hair, she explains that she goes back and forth between being relaxed and natural, and I explain that I went natural because relaxers were damaging my edges.
She then says, "You wanna know how to grow back your edges?"
I say, "Sure."
She says, "Growing hair is what I do. I do it to bless others, not to make a ton of money."
I say, "Neat."
She walks me over to another section of the BSS and picks up . . .
(enlarges upon click)
It's the newer formulation. I guess she's aware of the two different formulations. Of course this contains parabens. She sounded SOOOOOOO convicted about this stuff for growing back edges.
She said, "We want a difficult, $20 solution. This works, though. I've been growing back folks' edges with this for years."
* Aaaaaaaand, cue Yvette's hair product fatigue in 5 . . . 4 . . . 3 . . . 2 . . . *

Nice! Ain't nothing wrong with a nice cheap product that works. Making me want to go out and get some...
I wonder if the lady is legit though.

I couldn't tell. I wish I could. When I was a teen, I had a wave nouveau, or whatever it was called. I used curl activator. My hair really grew! But, this lady said curl activator is best for edge growth and not hair growth in general. She advised peppermint and rosemary oils for the latter.
She said it's all about individual body chemistry.
Sounded like she had/has success. She in no way appeared to be . . . wrong/confused about what she was talking about, but who knows?

I loved my fade but take a second and think about that growing out process, it's rough as hellget a sew-in, love, and take a break from it
I decided to wear it straight for a while. I forgot bkt makes the hair much easier to straighten. I did my hair in record time. I'll probably do this for a while as my hair in it's natural state was very thick and healthy when I was a straight hair natural

So I was being cheap and bought some store conditioners instead of my Vitale bae products.
I bought hello hydration and tresseme and the smell took me back to the old days. I let it sit for 5 mins and detangling was great. But my hair felt coated after I rinsed it out. I used it a few times to cowash but the moisture just wasn't like with Vitale bae products.
Today I used my vitale pro quench rinse out conditioner and after letting it sit on my hair for two minutes my hair practically detangled itself! It felt soft, conditioned and truly moisturized even after I rinsed out. Well now I know for next time. I will be buying a gallon soon.

For those who say that Devachan doesn't style type 4 hair, I'm a 4a/ 3c mix and the last two times I was there, there were two type 4 b/c women there with me.
Both fly in to see my stylists. One was from the D.C. Area and the one this past week was from New Orleans and she had such a drawl! It was fun chatting with them.

That's so 90's! I had that style! But it seems that's what's in now, and it was cute. You can wear it dressy or casual.

I always start my natural journey with a fade. It takes a year for me to get 5 inches. (I trim a lot) transitioning doesn't work for me. I think the key for it to not be rough is to just enjoy the grow out phase levels. Challenges will have one become impatient. I know that's what happens to me at times. I've been natural on and off for over 18 years.I loved my fade but take a second and think about that growing out process, it's rough as hell

I can't do those conditioners either. They coat my hair too and make it unbearable to detangle. I used to be able to use them 9 years ago. Those products have too many fillers in them.

All the expensive serums in my stash and I always reach for this one. I should have stopped wasting money a long time ago.

I took down some of my cornrows, loosened them up, and detangled before braiding them again. My hair is very moist yet still breaking off moderately. It seems to be my ends. Usually I can nurse my hair back to health fairly fast but after a month I still don't have much improvement. I know I'll have to cut these ends off. I just wish I knew what caused this type of damage. I know I've been neglecting my hair but I haven't done anything jurastic to it to cause this type of breakage. I use the wet brush a lot so maybe I'll cut that out and see what happens. I'm going to use a wide tooth comb and fingers only to detangle now. I'm going to buy some shears and cut 1-2" off next wash.

I'm going to attempt to do a set of 2-strand twists in a few weeks. Hope they're wearable.

Wetbrush has a line of brushes for detangling curly/textured hair.
They still look scary to me
I could see my hair getting caught in those none seamless balls on the tip of the brush tines
