1cup whole milk w/ 1/8cup of honey as a conditioner to straighten newgrowth
Mizani botanifying shampoo
mizani moisturefuze conditioner
mizani shyne sheen spray
John frieda relax serum

Misses
S-Curl no-drip moisturizing/activator- (i wanted to like this so bad, but i noticed that it makes my hair strands like real thin and they snap very easily.
John Frieda daily moisturizer- hmm, probably haven't given it a chance but i didn't care for it.

 

[aqualung]

HIT:
Rusk Smoother

It helped with the rollerset. I left too much in though (heavy handed), and I didn't condition after washing. Next time, I'll apply it straight out of the shower BEFORE detangling. I flat ironed the roots a little, as I'm 6 weeks post touch up.

I have the john Frieda relax serum I bought it a while back....I dont remember if I liked it or not, I havent used it lately...

Is it better than NTMs serum?

 

[PaperDoll]

So far:

Miss:

Elasta QP Mango Butter.
I really wanted this to work for me but it seems as if it does nothing for my hair. In fact I think its dries my hair our even more.
This is the second time I've tried to use this product.
*sigh*
And it smells so good too..
Oh well, I'm gonna use this jar until it's gone regardless.

 

[Kiadodie]

Hits:

-Mixing Nexxus Humectress and Nexxus Keraphix (a good mix of protein and moisture)

-Doing my own relaxer at home...I used ELasta QP Mild Relaxer (I wanted a texturized effect and this did it.

Miss:

-Goldwell Definition Dry & Porous Shampoo -this is the most drying shampoo (at least for my hair)

Is it better than NTMs serum?

I'm not sure, I never tried the NTM serum. I would love to know the answer..... Anyone tried both? I will give it a try since John Frieda is discontinued and this is the only thing that i know of that detangles my hair....
