August 2015: Hits & Misses

[Golden75]

HITS: Blue Rose Beauty Cocoa Coffee Rhassoul Hair Mask - detangles and made my hair super soft, BRB Manuka Honey Condish - nice detangler, made hair soft. Should be in a bottle though, too thin for a jar. BRB Okra Curl Cream - soft and defined curls. Usually have SSK's galore after air drying, but not with this. HV Vatika Frosting - just amazing stuff in that jar

@Golden75
My BRB Manuka is in a Bottle?

Nice Post. And I agree about VF. Your initial post last week made me go make sure I had a Jar.

Continued Hit: @IDareT'sHair @Beamodel @flyygirlll2 Stretching my relaxer.

New Hit: Alikay Naturals Lemongrass LI as a moisturizer seems to be doing pretty good. Not sure yet about it as a leave in. Need to use it more.

@divachyk

Thanks for your review on the Lemongrass L-I. It gets great reviews.

I have the "Knots Be Gone" Detangler, but haven't used it yet.

Hit

Palmer's Coconut Oil Formula Replenishing Hair Milk

Surprised by how much softness and slip it gave my hair. I am having day 3 hair

New Hit
Nubian Heritage Patchouli and Buriti infused Shea Butter - very creamy like PBN hair butter; can be co-washed out.

Revisited Hits
Alaffia Everyday Shea Conditioner (vanilla-mint scent) - I think it's been reformulated. The spearmint scent has been toned down. It's less lotion-like (Penetrate & hydrates). Best used on wet hair. Excellent base for herbal hair masks, rinses & co-washing.
Jane Carter Solution Restore Moisture Mist - It's like a glycerin-free hybrid of OH Honey Water & Go Tea. Moisturizes both hair and skin.

Miss
9 Row Denman brush - The rubber base degrades when used with oil/butter-based products. I'm switching to wood brushes

I am a sucker for detanglers @IDareT'sHair. I must look for that one. TY for the info.

Hit: Silk Dreams Shea What Deux. I honestly had sworn off this line but it was recommended by Tasia @Saludable84 and I decided to go ahead and try it. I have used it 3 times and each time I have been impressed. My hair is left soft and fluffy. Not a ton of slip, but I don't need my DCs to have slip. Hoping that she has a BF sale to pick up more.

Hit: Naturelle Grow's Coconut Water Cleansing Conditioner
This was nice. It wasn't on my monthly product list, but I decided to try it. Nice slip, foams, moisturized hair. I probably won't repurchase because VO5 does the same thing; gets my hair clean, foams, and makes it soft. But it's definitely a hit.

Hit- clarifying once a month with Suave Daily clarifying shampoo

Hit- Garnier Sleek and Shine leave in cream

I was wondering if she was still in business. Guess not.

Wow, so HH is officially done huh? I shouldn't be surprised. I'm going to need someone to come out with a dupe of her Carrot Cake Frosting.

I just saw that she's looking to reopen in November. Dun dun dunnnn!

First Impressions Hit: Soultanicals Marula Melon Moisture stuff
Man, my hair is so freakin SOFT!!! I was a little skeptical as it was going on, but my chunky twist fro is extremely moisturized. I used the Knot Sauce and then sealed it with the Melon Muru. I really need to stop touching my hair.
I wish this came in a 16 ounce because I don't like the banana smell of the other one.
I'm sure I can get one more day of moisture before I retwist tomorrow.

Hit: CurleGurle shipping! I ordered on a Saturday and received my order the following Tuesday!

I told you that stuff is good. My relaxed hair didn't fair well with it but the natural hair and texlaxed hair love it. It's really the only deep conditioner in her line I like now. I might have to sell my Shea what! Because I have no use for it.
