I'm sorry for any Kenra users I offend, but the Moisturizing Shampoo is the worst thing ever! I had the most horrible experience with it last night. Granted, the new bottle I had may have been a bad batch, but I doubt it. I started using Kenra a few months ago. The first few washes were fine. Then I started noticing that my hair would get a little hard after these initial washes. So I took a break for awhile and then went back to it last night (trying to curb my pjism and use what I got). To take it easy, I decided to dilute some of the shampoo with water before applying it to my hair.
Immediately after the first shampoo, my hair became unbearably hard. I felt around and discovered tangles everywhere. Some of my hair was even matted! I immediately lathered with the Kenra Moisturizing Conditioner and let it sit for 30 minutes under medium heat. When I tried to rinse out, the matted tangles felt even worse. I pulled out my trusty Paul Mitchell The Detangler. Guess what happened. WRONG! It did nothing for my new dreadlocks. Being that I am not a patient person, I began to panic and was on the verge of tears. I rinsed and conditioned over and over again to no avail. I stopped at 11:30pm, mind you I started my wash at 7:30pm. I slathered NTM conditioner in my hair, put on a plastic cap and went to bed.
This morning, I called my hairdresser (Marcia at Lavar that everyone raves about) and she said I could come in. She was an angel! Do you know she used a needle to take out my tangles? It took her an hour to get them all out and we won't even discuss the amount of hair that came out of my hair.
This is such a setback. I will never, never, eva, eva, eva touch another product by them again. Including my beloved Elucence or Elasta QP. I will go back to Keracare and Cream of Nature (which Marcia used to wash my hair). She advised I use CON starting at 7 weeks post relaxer (b/c I get my hair relaxed every 10 weeks). My hair is prone to tangle, and my new growth makes it worse!
I just had to vent. Sorry if I offended anyone who uses Kenra. Remember what works for the goose may not work for the gander.
