Keracare- I used the line exclusively for two years. the products are good, but meant to be used together on affirm relaxed hair. I used some of them as a natural, and they worked well too.
Disclaimer: this is my personal review. Some people love the products that I hate. My hair has a mind of its own and wants to do its own thang.Some of my opinions were formed pre-LHCF when I used shampoo undiluted,conditioning for 20 min only and dealing with dryness from the no lye relaxer.
Sensitive Scalp relaxer-At first it was wonderful. Then my hair dried out and I lost length.Any dryness I have dealt with is due to the remaining no lye in my hair
Affirm Lye relaxer-Gave me silky straight hair, that is less prone to dryness.
Affirm 5 in 1, positive link, fiberguard sustenance-
I have used when getting a touchup. I think they must work well. The sustenance has ceramides.
I used 5 in 1 twice at home and the second time, it made my hair a little too hard.I used positive link once at home and it sent me into protein overload. I am pretty sure they are wonderful at the right time for my hair.
Keracare 1st lather- clarifying-hair always felt stripped, dry. It wasn't for me since it doesn't chelate. My ex-stylist who works for Avlon says you are supposed to shampoo twice with the hydrating, detangling after using it. Not good for me. I do best with one lather.
Keracare Hydrating/Detangling Shampoo-moisturizing, softening, detangling, but if I used all of the rest of the products with silicone/mineral oil, sometimes it just wouldn't cut it. I still use it sometimes.
Keracare Dry and Itchy Scalp shampoo-feels good on the scalp. wasn't very effective on my scalp flaking and was very drying to me.
Keracare Dry and Itchy Scalp conditioner-Moisturizing, feels good on my scalp, but really didn't help my dry scalp condition long term.
Keracare Humecto-Thin very moisturizing/detangling deep conditioner. I have always had to saturate my hair with this to get good results. After a while it became less effective for me, but it is still good. I can use it again now, since I learned from Sistaslick about using conditioners for longer than 20 min.
Keracare Moisturizing Conditioner for Color treated hair-
I love this even though I don't use color. It is supposed to be anti breakage, and I think this helped me to grow out no lye ends without having major cuts. I just noticed the other day that it does contain ceramide.
Keracare Wrap Set Foam Lotion- I used to use this mainly when setting my own hair. It dries quick but after a while, I noticed my hair was consistently hard and dry. It contains keratin! probably the culprit.
Keracare Setting Lotion- loved this as a natural when I wanted to wear my hair straight. It is very detangling and moisturizing when you put it on/set.I like it diluted. It is important to let it dry totally, or my hair would be hard. I still have/will use it, but my hair doesn't really like setting lotion all the time. In the salon, my hair would be the bomb. Using it weekly, I experienced hardness/after using it every week. I tried it this summer, after getting my Pibbs and I had salon results I think because my hair finally dried evenly and thoroughly.
Keracare Silken Seal- is the bomb-shine,silkiness. It is expensive, but very concentrated and lasts a long time. the ingredients are cyclomethicone, dimethicone in that order, therefore clarifying is a must if using it. I don't use it very much anymore because it is hard for me to moisturize my hair with it on. It really seals.
Keracare Leave In- Very concentrated. Too heavy for my hair. I need thinner leave ins. It always made my hair heavy, then dry hard and greasy. I threw it away.
Keracare Oil Moisturizing lotion-my hair was heavy, greasy then dry. Not for me
Keracare High Sheen Glossifier- Basically vaseline with some I think Jojoba Oil. This was used after my rollers were removed. It is the bomb then, but my hair would be hella dry two days later, and it was hard to get my hair moisturized again.
Keracare Dry and Itchy Scalp Glossifier- vaseline and menthol basically. It worked for a day, then my scalp would be dry and itchy again and my roots would be weighed down.
Keracare Essential Oils for scalp-Good, but I prefer to buy the individual oils in bulk. I know some stylists add the oils to humecto,etc. so I use it as a guideline when adding oils to my dcs.
Keracare cream moisturizer-(tub) hated it-moisturized my hair for about an hour, then it was heavy and dry all over again.

I want to try this shampoo and conditioner set. The poo is sulfate free and the conditioner is silicone free. 
....I should just hit you up when I need a product review
It has the same color as Kenra MC but is super thick. I use this with heat and my hair has a smoothness and weight to it. I like this one now when I have alot of newgrowth
