I would get the honey hair cream instead, even though the scent is a little too sweet for me. The Type 4 cream was nice for my hair, but nothing special ,in my opinion.

Uh, oh!!!! I know everyone's hair responds differently to products, but I picked up this conditioner the other day at Sally's because it was on sale for $0.99 but have had my doubts about it ever since I got it home. I was comparing it to the Lustrasilk with Aloe, and the consistency is totally different. The Shea Butter formula is thicker and heavier (I knew it would be a lil' heavier due to the shea butter, but ugh!!!!) and not as smooth (looks rather "goopy"), which could be a big 'ole "no-no" for my hair. I'll have to use a small amount on one section and see how it turns out.

-KeraCare Dry and Itchy Scalp Moisturizing Shampoo
(It was soooooooo soothing on my scalp, I like this one even
better than the KeraCare Hydrating Detangling Shampoo which is
also an excellent product)
-Decca Plus Products!
(I used the Decca Plus Satin Pomade in middle-school and high school
and my hair grew to the longest it has ever been back then. The
pomade is really light and I used it to moisturize my ends. Although
I was eating very healthfully back then, taking vitamins, and
beginning to practice better hair care habits in general, I contribute
my ability to retain my lenth in part to the Decca pomade. It does
contain petrolatum and mineral oil but it also has the following
ingredients: castor oil,palm oil, almond oil, jojoba oil, avocado oil,
musk oil, rosin, wheat germ w/vitamins A, D, & E, aloe vera,
hydrolized protein, lanolin, lecithin, rosemary, paraben, &
frangrance etc... It also works very well as a pressing
creme.
-Decca Satin Tame...Works very well as a moisturizer. I use it
to moisturize my ends but it can also be used as a setting
lotion, blow drying agent, pressing creme, and as a
detangler.
- The new Aubrey Organics GPB formula... I'd finished up my last bottle
of the original so I finally got to try the new formula and I like it
just as much if not more than the original. It detangled my hair so
well I considered not following it up with Humecto (but I did anyway,
gotta have my Humecto
). Looks like GPB will remain in my list of
staple products.
- Elasta QP Mango Butter... The scent is yummy & it's easy to apply. I
recently read somewhere on the forum that it acts more like a gel
than a hair butter, this was also my experience. I moisturized my
ends with it and covered my hair with a plastic cap, when I got up
in the morning my ends were curly.

HITS:
Suave Citrus Smoothie Conditioner - Dang what took me so long? This is now my official post conditioning rinse, not just for the slip, but for the great scent. I went and bought Milk and Honey too. Yay Cheapie Conditioners!
BBD Stretch - I only bought this because it was 40% off at the BSS. I have a funky feeling that it contains Mineral Oil
, BUT Good Googlymoogly! My hair is verrrry moisturized and shiny. I used this together with my first love, Nioxin Silk Elixir, for my rollersets. I'm 9 weeks post, and I can still comb over an inch of new growth.
MISSES:
I've been on the hunt for a good moisturizing poo for a MINUTE - without SLS or ALS Any suggestions would be welcomed...
JASON Sea Kelp - feels like I haven't rinsed it all out
l'anza remedy - i think i bought an OLD bottle, the poo is crusty
Scurl Gel. Yuck! Anybody want this?
Kemi Oyl Conditioning Spray. Double yuck! Anybody want this?

Hi, did you apply the stretch creme on each section prior to rolling or did you apply to your full head first? I have this product and I will be trying it for the first time this week. Thanks

HUGE HIT!!!
ORS Olive Oil Replenishing Pak - I had so much slip when I put it on that I did not want to wash it out... Slip was still there after I rinsed. I put in Salerm 21 and am airdrying now... Talk about hair heaven! NEW STAPLE!!!
Another Hit:
Cantu Grow Strong Strengthing Treatment - I had tried the Break Cure and I found it to be a good moisturizer but it left my hair a little hard (maybe the amount of protein). This Grow Strong is a much better moisturizer IMHO. I put it mainly on my ends and it kept them moist and frizz free! I want to try the Daily Oil Moisturizer next.
