When do you put this on before or after styling?Hit: Sealing hair with cocoa butter mixed with oils (as opposed to shea butter)
Rinses out with a cowash, but definitely makes a more effective seal than plain oil. My hair clumps back in curls right after rinsing, where waxes make it shrink into nothingness as it can never get moisture back into it and must be clarified. Hope its good enough to use in the winter too.... plus I smell like dark chocolate

Please post a picture of the Malibu Chelating Treatment. It sounds like a great product.Miss:

Really wanted to like it, remembered liking it back in the day, but now it just makes my hair feel sticky and crispy, and I'd better not use it while my hair is wet because when it drips onto my skin I also feel sticky to the touch.

If I haven't said it before, this stuff is freaking miraculous not only for mineral build-up, but for cones as well (which are technically a mineral, I think, so actually that makes sense). Definitely going to have this around for monthly/as needed.

Giovanni leave-in Conditioner:
Only store-bought leave-in that works in my hair. Period.
Really. I had 2 tubes of this and after trying it on, I couldn't handle the smell and I rarely say that about anything, I threw that stuff in the trash. PeewwwwwwBig Hit: *Virgin Hair Fertilizer gave me 3/4" in two weeks. I decided to buy 3 more.

I think I might have marked this as a miss before, but I used it in the shower. This time I used it with heat (plastic cap + hot head) and oh my goodness it was pretty good. It wasn't too greasy, which is a no for my hair, but my curls looked so happy after I rinsed it out.
I'm using the matching scalp oil and my scalp is TINGLING. I just hate the slow shipping. She lives like 20 min from my parents and takes 3 weeks to ship. Come on girl, if it's that hard I'll just drive down and get it.
