I am currently using silk elements moisturizer and sealing with castor oil and coconut oil mixed together. It makes my hair soft.

I haven't found ANYTHING that moisturizes my hair like water. My hair & scalp DEMAND water everyday. So it's usually water sealed with with a light oil like coconut or jojoba.

I am also fan of ORS in the jar for moisture. I will use Sweet almond oil,Vatika oil and castor oil depends on what is available in my crib.

Me: ORS Olive Oil in the jar and seal with Vatika oil (I use castor oil to seal my nape because it needs something a little heavier).

Daughter: Cantu leave in and seal with Vatika oil

I'm still learning the whole moisturize and seal routine. Can someone list oils that act as sealants, or can any oil be a sealant. I currently use Africa's Best hair oil b/c it has alot of natural ingredients.

I am glad that someone asked this question. I thought that I was the only who was unsure of the difference.

Sometimes I use shea butter, which can be pretty heavy.

I still haven't found my HG moisturizer.

I would also like to know. I don't think I even know the difference between 'moisture' and 'seal'.

I don't know if this the the 'correct' way, but I use Sweet Cashew's hair butter, and if my ends are brittle for any weird reason, I use Rene Furterer's Karite daily moisturizer sealed with Sweet Cashew's hair butter.

Currently, I am using hawaiian silky 14 in 1 miracle worker as my moisturizer and sealing with megacare grapeseed oil. Once the 14 in 1 is gone I will be replacing it with a more natural moisturizer.....no idea yet as to which one though
