[tiffanyoneal]

I posted this on another forum but decided to post it here:

Okay ladies lets have a lil test!​

This is a battle of the best ingredients for Moisturizing your hair!​

Some of your favorite products are listed here but I am not telling you until I get enough replies.

Ummm let’s say 20 replies.​

*copy and paste the ingredients you choose or choose a number*​

I also know that some of us including myself do not know what every ingredient is but we should know what not to use...like all those cones! ​

Thanks Supergirl! I am a lil bored at work.

 

[SimpleKomplexity]

I dun liek none of them either....MAYBE number 5 but nu uhhh I see cones

 

[charmtreese]

Nevermind

 

[charmtreese]

Based on the ingredients I would not choose any of these moisturizers.

I like the ingredients in 2 and 5 also! number 2 sounds familiar.

 

[tiffanyoneal]

Thats a great pick!

 

[bbdgirl]

Number 5 sounds good, but number 4 makes me wanna run away!

 

[Wanderland]

I'll go with number 3 as choice #1, all of the ingredients seem harmless
And number 2 and choice 2: 2nd to #3 because though it has lots of yummy looking ingredients at the end of the list the fourth ingredient is lanolin (after water, glycerin, etc).

I have a feeling that the moisturizer that I currently use is #4 yeah I'm actually pretty sure of it and I haven't even checked the ingredients to confirm. I just know when I purchased it I had apprehensions due to the ingredients.

 

[DivaRox]

Number 2 looks familiar but you said no cheating soooooooooo....I can't sneak even a little teensy peek???

 

[Dposh167]

either 1 or 6...if i absolutely had to choose something. but i'm not at all that big on any of them really. cones on my head for a moisturizer is a ...and i don't like proplyene glycol within the first 3-4 ingredients. #1 sounds like a dominican product to me

Yup, I have been finding out that cones are a no no for my hair.

LOL-Jes checking

 

[MamaBraidedIt]

2

5 looks like it has many moisturizing agents...though the parabens are high on the list, plus it has cones, and dye

 

[nappity]

The one that looks like what Ive used is 5.

 

[Esq.2B]

What's wrong with cones? I've seen where people have said to avoid them (so I've avoided them ) but I never knew why?
I know it's something bad, but I just don't know specifically what it is.

[thegirltolove]

Ooooo, Ooooo, Ooooo!!!! I would have to go with #2 (especially because I already know what it is) and I love that stuff!!!!

I use it as a leave in...no matter how I am wearing my hair at the time.

 

[thegirltolove]

Oh...I guess I'm a little late huh???

I guess it was a fun thought anyway....Thanks TIFF!!!!

 

[Supergirl]

Ha ha at #4. Someone earlier said that it makes them want to run away and it turns out to be Pink Lotion, the devil's hair nectar.

Okaaayyyy!!! That was me...I never liked that stuff, even when I was a kid. And back then it used to be the shizit!!! Eeeeewwwww!

 

[Allandra]

Very nice and creative thread.

 

[Dposh167]

either 1 or 6...if i absolutely had to choose

well at least i guessed one of the products i own. wave nouveau...even tho i still don't use this as my daily anything. only on my dry edges and really dry ng.

 

[tiffers]

Dangit! I missed the game! I would have picked 2 or 5

LOL @ the Pink Lotion ingrdients! The worst of the bunch! There's not even anything semi-good for hair, just cheap fillers and parabens. Damn shame! How are they still in business?

 

[Tee]

Really creative. I would have picked 5 because I already knew the product. You dont know how long I have stood in a BBS studied the back of the bottle before! (2 does look good also) Who has tried number 2??

 

[HoneyDew]

I know it's something bad, but I just don't know specifically what it is.

There is nothing wrong with cones. I love em! I just personally don't use moisturizers with cones. I just use silicone in my heat protectant and that's all.

It works for me that way. I did not make this choice on purpose, but I noticed that my hair was doing better moisture-wise by #1 using a conditioner without cones in the first 5 list of ingredients (or with water soluble cones only or no cones at all.) and #2 using moisturizers with no cones, wax, mineral oil, or petroleum. I don't have anything against any of those ingredients because I will use them if I need to, but my staple moisturizer does not contain any of that and work much better to give me pure non-greasy moisture.

 

[PittiPat]
