Velvet Soft from Graham Web. It was
extremely soft, fluffy, bounced when I walked, and swayed when the wind blew it. I didn't use anything but Velvet Soft and a little oil (and I didn't oil rinse). It didn't use any moisturizer and no leave-ins. It really didn't need any and it stayed soft and moist all day.
I just wasn't as shiny and I wasn't crazy about the bounciness it just felt weird to have my hair moving when it was in a wng. It also pointed towards the sky more than the ground. I like it pointing down (it makes it look longer)
but I could get addicted to the softness.
All Soft Heavy Cream by Redken, the Velvet Whip Leave-in and a little oil (again no oil rinsing and no other products). It has a deep shine, it's not as soft as Velvet soft but it's softer than Aveda. It's also very smooth. It feels like the surface of the hair is oiled (but it's not oily).
I didn't see any breakage from either but the Velvet soft hair stretched more (before breaking) than the All Soft treated hair. Velvet soft would have been my primary had it been a little shinier or a little more available.
I guess I like them both for different reasons. So I guess I have two new lines, but Redken is my primary.
I've started clearing my shelves. Stuff I only sorta liked is going in the trash (or to a girlfriend). Stuff I've loved for years (like Aveda) is being boxed and put in a back closet. When the PJ in my decides to try something new I'll revisit the old favs.
