What has worked for me thus far. I have been using these products since mid-late August, 2003, with the exception of the Aubrey Organics GPB, which I used for the first time on 9/28/03.

*Kenra Moisturizing Shampoo

*Kenra Moisturizing Conditioner. This is a deep penetrating moisturizing treatment. I use with heat for approximately 30 minutes.

*Hairobics: Leave-In Conditioner, Hair and Scalp Booster, and Hair Oil.

I use the Leave-In on freshly shampooed wet hair, and then every other night on dry hair. I apply to the roots, and then massage into the hair. I use the Hair and Scalp Booster on freshly shampooed and conditioned hair and scalp when dry. I apply it to the scalp, and then massage into the hair. I may re-apply to the scalp at about mid-week, depending on the weather and its affect on my hair. I use the Hair Oil to moisturize the ends. I apply the Har Oil about every other night.

*Pantene Pro-V Relaxed and Natural Wrap and Set Lotion. I suppose this may be considered a leave-in. I apply this when I wet set my freshly shampooed hair, and then every night when setting dry hair.

*Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Shampoo ( for clarifying).

Protein deep penetrating treatments:
*Aubrey Organics GPB. I use heat with this one. I don't follow with a moisturizing treatment.

*Joico K-Pak ( I follow this with a moisturizing treatment). I don't use heat with this one.

Elasta qp creme conditioning shamp ($2.50) its made by the same company that manufactures elucence and kenra

For moisturizing Elasta's Intense condit is good, but if you want something for extreme conditioning keracare's humecto gets my vote

i use garlic shampo to clarify..but that's not my primary reason for using it.


Razac leave in is the best!

i like proclaim's hot 7 oil for multi puirpose reasons (hot oils, to mix with my daily moisturizer, for the scalp)

BB castor oil moisturizer is the best!

I think Creme of Nature shampoo (for dry and damaged hair) is the best shampoo in the world. Motions is also good.

I like Healthier Hair in Bottle Oil Spray, by Carolyn Gray.

Conditioners-Motion CPR and Ultra Black Hair conditioner by Cathy Howse

Leave-ins - Aphogee Vitamin leave-in and Infusium (for dry and damaged hair).

Those are my suggestions. I hope you don't get over-whelmed.
