What kind of $20 conditioners are you using???

This stuff. These are good products, but once you find a conditioner that's a dollar that works just as well it makes me decide to switch things up.
If you ever want to sell any of those.....

Moisturized with Komaza Califa Spray and sealed with HV Green Tea Cream and grapeseed oil tonight... Paying more attention to my hair now has me noticing my THIN TEMPLES. My mom has super thin temples and has a hard time growing
Any ladies have any tips for this?
Castor oil works well, but it really thick.

There s no way a dollar Con would compare to them. It might"feel" good but most dollar con are just light conditioners that don't penetrate the hair's cuticle.

Does it matter what type of castor oil it is? I've heard a lot about jbco but have only seen cold pressed in the store.

As I understand it, the "ash" in the JBCO is what makes it more potent than cold pressed. But there are varieties of JBCO too like regular, extra dark, ylang ylang, lavender, etc.

I use the regular castor oil. I purchased it on amazon and I get good results. I've never tried JBCO.

My mini twists. I washed and conditioned with Organix, leave in with Knot Today, sealed with avocado oil, and hold/moisture with organic honey.

Yeah my cousin tried to shame mesaid my hair was already long as the kinky twists so there was no point.
Girl my braider said the same thing....my hair too long for kinky so I would need Senegalese but I don't want those. I love kinky twists!!!!

I am in the same boat but I THINK I found d a fix with an AVG, glycerine, water mix. I added some sweet orange essential oil for fragrance. Check this out: http://yournaturalhair.com/moisturizing-natural-hair-whats-in-your-spritz-bottle/. Also, the terresentials mud wash is amazing! No tangles, ultra moisturizing, detoxing/clarifying without feeling stripped and easy! I can't use it yet because I still have relaxed ends but it's perfect for my dd who has always been natural.

last saturday... i did a apple cider vinegar rinse. i did a dc with henna 'n placenta.. i sprayed with glycerin/water and put a little of my suave conditioner on my hair to keep it moist while i put it in long kinky twist.
i wish the henna 'n placenta didn't have hormones. apparently, the placental protein is a big deal as it links to breast cancer. it is the only conditioner that i would love to keep as a staple because it always saves my hair from a drought, but i will have to find another
i put in big kinky twists that are like waist length. i think i am going to split some so that i have more of them for a thicker bun. otherwise i like them.
i have been putting my JBCO w/rosemary and sulfer 8 on my edges regularly since last saturday. we'll see if we get some progress. i have taken pics of my edges. also, i have realized that they are not as bad as i imagine them, but.. still. they need some help.
