I tried these products TOO and they are definitely HITS.

Re: February Hits and Misses

THE GREATEST HITS OF ALL!!!!:
* Mega Care VItamin E Oil
* Mega Care Olive Oil
* Mega Care Jojoba Oil
* Mega Care Shea Butter Oil
* JOICO Intensive Moisture Treatment Extra Conditioning Moisturizing Conditioner<----
This JOICO Conditioner is the best hands down of all moisturizing conditioners on the market! I have found that this is the best over Deep Brilliance, Keracare, Motions, Redken and Mizani.

Im in love

 

[lunalight7]

Re: February Hits and Misses

Wow, Chaya....that's really saying something if it beat out Elucence and DB!

 

[Chaya]

Re: February Hits and Misses

Actually I have not tried Elucence but it easily beat Deep Brilliance and I really like deep brilliance. But Joico fullfilled all the requirements. Its Very moisturizing, it smells like bananas and I love using it after a protein treatment. Its the best ever!

 

[cutebajangirl]

Re: February Hits and Misses

Ugh now I have to go buy one more thing. Thanks Chaya !
Now seriously I only have hits for this month:

Salerm Vital Vials-silicone vials that help greatly with slip
Hemp Seed Oil- the shine is off the hook and I NEVER get shine
Felxirod sets- love them and my edges don't get stressed with them.

 

[aqualung]

Re: February Hits and Misses

I got nothin'! *Turning pockets inside out and shrugging shoulders* I restocked MSM this month, and that's all. Waituhminute

Hits: MSM

 

[lunalight7]

Re: February Hits and Misses

HITS: Porosity Control
Salerm 21 Silk Protein Leave-In

Chaya, how long did you leave the Joico on? Im in the market for a good deep condit.

Re: February Hits and Misses

MISS

Deep Brilliance hydration shampoo-........it made my hair a bit tangled and I just didnt like the feeling when washing my hair with it, and it really stripped my hair. I guess I'll use it as a clarifying shampoo, when my hair has tons of buildup.

HIT
Salerm 21 leave in

 

[LaNecia]

Re: February Hits and Misses

Hits:
Avon Dry Ends Serum

Elucence Moisture Benefits Shampoo

F.A.S.T. Conditioner
Jason's Sea Kelp Shampoo & Conditioner
KeraCare Humecto Creme Conditioner
KeraCare Foam Wrap-Set Lotion
Profective Strength & Shine Spray

Misses:
F.A.S.T. Shampoo (hair felt a bit stripped but will use anyway because it accompanies the conditioner)
S-Curl (Waaaaaay too sticky!)

Not sure:
Elucence Moisture Balancing Conditioner

 

[Allandra]

You can leave the JOICO on for however long that you want...It's THAT good! Some conditioners stop working after 20minutes while others have to be taken off isn 5 minutes. This one is great for however long. ITs my absolute favorite. I leave it on for about 20-30 minutes under the dryer. However, the directions say to leave it on for 5 minutes.

ONe thing is taht this conditioner is hard to find. I just bought a large bottle of it on ebay for $10.50 normally $32.00 in the stores!
