Hair products for natural hair

I don't use all of these anymore b/c I'm on a quest to go natural. But these are the ones that I liked regardless.

*Dr. Bronners Castille Shampoo
*Aubrey Organics Island Butter Shampoo & Sea Buckthorn Shampoo (for dry/curly hair)

*Aubrey Organics Sea Buckthorn Conditioner, GPB Conditioner, and Island Creme Rinse (what I currently use)
*Elasta QP DPR-11 Remoisturizer (conditioner. Lots of good ingredients. Sucks on my hair alone, but when mixed with oil and honey this stuff is the bomb.)
*Hask's Henna N Placenta
*Pantene Hydrating Curls and Pantene Relaxed & Natural (choose the relaxed and natural. They both are the same formula, except the relaxed & natural also has jojoba and coconut oil in it.)

*Always 911 Leave In
*Carol's Daughter hair milk (when it doesn't smell so strong. Lately I don't know what is going on with her batches. They have a strong lemony smell like furniture polish.)
*CD Ecstasy Jelly (shine)
*CD Mimosa Hair Honey (shine/softness)
*CD Some of Marguerite's Magic (smells good but strong. Good for shiny twists.)

Have you heard of anyone who have had adverse affects from using Creme of Nature Detangling Shampoo?

This was posted before. I can't find the thread (there are soooo many CON threads!), but it turns out that sodium hydroxide is a normal part of soap making. Saponification or something like that... It won't hurt your hair.


If it bothers you, get the Professional formula or the one in the bright yellow bottle with green letters. Those don't have lye in them.

ETA: Here it is.

Besides this, what are the other bad ingredients in Creme of Nature that cause the buildups everyone talks about?
