Hit: Jakeala'so nappy butter. BEST leave in conditioner ever. Can use on its own and the scent I got was grace (peach Bellini).

Hit: Camille rose whipped butter gel. I had used it before and hair came out a bit dry and a bit frizzy. The trick is to make sure you really put on a moisturizing leave in under it. Been using it exclusively for the past couple of weeks. Hair is defined and oh so big like I like it.

Hit: using SM purification mask as a Cowash. It really gets rid of itchies and cleans hair.

Hit: doing LOC instead of LCO.

flyygirlll2 Did you use the Agua Bomba for a roller set? Can you describe how your hair felt when it dried? I have this "setting lotion" but I'm afraid to try it because I don't know if it'll make the hair feel "crunchy" like a traditional setting lotion. Does it provide hold? If so, is it light, medium, or strong? Thanks!

nymane yes I used it for the roller set I did yesterday. My hair felt soft when it dried, no crunchy feeling at all thankfully. I typically steer away from setting lotions due to crunchiness. I would say it has a light hold IMO and I used a lot too because I wanted to make sure my hair was well saturated so I could get a smooth set. so far I really like it. Hope that helps :-)
 
Unexpected Hit: Siamese Twists Olive Bhringraj Sugared Pink Hair Cream

This is a dense, whipped butter that has great ingredients and an aroma that smells faintly of sugar. I’ve used this product was used several times as a sealant after applying a creamy leave-in conditioner on both freshly washed and slightly dampened hair. With each use, I received the exact same results: Immediately after application, it gives my hair a dull, white cast. However, once the product had fully absorbed into my strands, it produced extremely soft, shiny and ridiculously smooth hair that lasts for several days without refreshing. To be clear, this stuff laid my hair down as if it were a gel! And, although my hair remained untouched for three full days, the soft, silky smoothness persisted...despite sleeping, scratching and sticking pens into it. This unassuming white cream (I have no idea why it’s labeled as “pink”) blew me away.
 
Hit:

BWC (Beauty Without Cruelty) Moisture Plus Conditioner - this stuff is good. It made my hair very sleek ... my hair is way less "poufy" than it has been in a while and this was just after a co-wash. I like it a lot.

Yes!!! divachyk I'm glad you like it as well. :yep: I love the ingredients too. I notice that there are two kinds of Cantu lotions on the market though. One that just says creamy lotion and the one that I bought at Target that says conditioning creamy lotion. I wonder what gives. :scratchch
