Wen 613, made my hair feels so soft it was almost as if I have a new head of hair! It can lead to over moisturized hair if you're not careful.

Ion coconut detangling leave in, this is from the organic.line- its
moisuper moisturizing
and this is someone whose hair generally hates coconut oil! I absolutely love this I would purchase it again great spray!

Finger detangling-makes detangling much easier, although it takes awhile to do I have noticed less breakage. I usually follow up with my seamless comb.

Let's Jam Custard Cream Gel



My hair type: 4a/b/c porous and dry

This is a good gel but kind of persnickety on getting consistent results on my hair from time to time.  But what I realize for my hair, in order to get desirable results, I must use this on deep conditioned, cleaned and damp hair.    If I used this on somewhat clean but damp hair, it still works but not as well as freshly shampooed and deep conditioned hair.  It does offer good hold but not as good as Via Green Tea Styling Gel (my favorite translucent gel) or Eco Styler Gel (second best for my hair).  You can rewet hair to reactivate it but it wouldn't be as great, well in my experience.  It smells like candy to me, so it might be cloying for those with sensitive noses.  Not curly girl friendly but I like it.  Haven't used it on twist or braids but it does look like it will work for those styles.

I give it & 1/2 stars out of five.

So I have been totally natural for a few days now and not really prepared for it. Products that worked before are not working well right now so I hit the BSS and bought these African Pride products:
This smells nice (if a little overpowering). It detangles well, but it does not dry super soft - although not hard. I might add some oils to it. It did do better when I sealed with grease. Yep grease is back in my life. 3/5stars



Nothing really. Smells nice and detangles, but my hair seemed dry and dull. I will use it as  a pre poo and not buy it again. 1/5 stars


Now here is something I can't work out. I used it on dry hair and it seemed to relax my curl and leave a nice shine. I used it on wet hair and it reacted badly with the leave in conditioner. I had white globs that did not go. It reacted with every leave in conditioner and I had to wash it out. It hasn't worked well since, but I have not given up on it yet. 2/5stars.

I think they need to tweak it so that it does not react with other products in their range.
