We should start a list of products that are similar in results. With all the changes in ingredients lately and the tempermental nature of what our hair likes each week, maybe this will help use find replacements or backups to some of our favorite products.

I'll start

Nexxus Botanoil shampoo = Elasta qp shampoo for relaxed hair- they even look and smell the same

BB Castor oil lotion=Profectiv growth lotion- both add stength and similar amounts of moisture

Dudleys DRC=Softsheen Duo tex

Elucence Extended Moisture Treatment=Elasta qp breakage control serum

Elasta qp recovery moisturizer= BB growth lotion
 
Hi Gymfreak...good thread!

Profectiv Mega Growth Deep Cond = Pantene Mask...makes the hair soft, manageable and gives hair strength.

Profectiv Mega Growth Lotion = Mizani H20...leaves the hair with moisture but not greasy and lots of body.

When I think of more I will be back...
 
nexxus heat protexx = tresemme heat tamer spray

the tresseme has almost the exact same ingredients as nexxus, so i use that one instead! and for less than $3.50 at wal-mart it's much nicer on my college-sized pockets than the protexx.
 
Elasta QP Shampoo for Relaxed Hair=Kenra Moisturizing Shampoo
Elasta H Two Leave-In=Kenra Daily Provision
 
Elasta qp scalp stimulating shampoo=Keracare dry/itchy scalp shampoo- elasta tingles a bit more though

Nexxus Keraphix= CB smoothie Reconstructor
 
ooh, and

chi silk infusion = ion silk drops! (maybe?)

i've never tried silk infusion, but the ion silk drops DEFINITELY makes my hair feel like silk. and it smells DELICIOUS! as in, sexy man delicious (reminds me of a mix of this cologne that my 1st boyfriend used to wear, axe body spray, and old spice deodorant)


this makes airdrying hair HEAVEN! today was the 1st time i was able to use a wide toothed comb through my airdried texturized mess! i can't wait until next wash, when i flat iron!

(can you tell i'm excited? lol)
 
Roux Porosity Control Conditioner = Cream of Nature Porosity Control (more for your money with CON)

I know there are others I've come across but I have to think of them.
Thanks for starting this Gym.
 
Motions Silk protein conditioner=Smooth and shine silk fusion conditioner

Joico Kpak intense hydator=Aveda damage remedy conditioner

Nexxus Hydrasleek conditioner=Loreal unfrizz natures therapy conditioner
 
Nexxus Humectress=Suave Humectant, right?

I'm going to venture out and ask,

is Nexxus Humectress = KeraCare Humecto? They also look similar to me but I haven't tried Humecto YET :lachen:.

Suave has NOTHING on Nexxus, IMO. And as of right now, I like Humectress more than Humecto (more slip, I like the texture better, etc). I'll probably revisit Humecto before the year's over just to remember why I USED to be in love with it so...



Redken All Soft Shampoo=KeraCare Hydrating Detangling Shampoo
Mizani Botanifying Shampoo=Nexxus Therappe Shampoo

I'm sure I have tons more, but those came off the top of my head...
 
What a great idea:
Sabino Moisture Block = Bumble and Bumble Defrizz
They have the same two forms of silicone and nothing else.
 
Great idea!!

Gonna do a triplet...

Keracare Silken Seal = Afrocare Silk Drop = John Freida Frizz Ease Serum - Extra Strength

Aveda Hair Detoxifier = Mizani Puriphying Shampoo.

Nexxus Humectress in cone free and KeraCare Humecto has cones.
 
General Value Products Sebastian Potion #9 Knockoff = Sebastian Potion #9.

I've used both and they are quite similar but the GVP version is only 5 bucks.
