You little scoundrel.

How are you in the OCT/Mega thread pushing and in this one pushing?

You PJ pusher!

(I asked you a question in the OCT/Mega thread btw).

I go back and forth between my current favorite threads! :yep:
ShiShi, I :love: both the WEN and OVATION. The WEN provides my moisture and OVATION, well OVATION is my product for life. And WEN of course!


I will go see about your question.

Do you still deep condition even when using Wen? Do you use it like a leave in like he does on his site?

I have deep conditioned with the Lavender with wonderful results. The only reason I don't deep condition with it as much now, is because I really like jessicurl weekly treatment for deep conditioning and to I want to conserve the WEN for washing my hair. :yep:

Broke ain't no excuse :lachen:...

PM me if you want some WEN Enhantmt.

Awwww, arent you a sweetheart? :kiss: I couldn't allow you to do that, but I appreciate the offer. :) Actually the package on his site for 30 bucks is pretty reasonable, compared to the stuff on qvc. 12 oz vs 16 or more on the QVC site, so I may just get it when I get paid later this week. I'm just not happy with my hair right now so EVERYTHING sounds good.

Well, I want you to try it and let us know what you think.
I think you might really like it. I dunno. I love the way my hair feels when I use it. Plus me, Charmtreese and Coffee need some more WEN friends.

Count me in as a WEN friend. I really like the Almond Mint, leaves my hair moist and soft and it dries without frizz. I haven't tried any of the others but after all the raves, I will definitely try the Fig.

I had been using Devacare No Poo. I think WEN might be better.

I have a question.

Ladies that are using WEN, do you still use direct heat on your hair? I'll be flat ironing my natural hair so I wonder if I can still use WEN...

Yes, you can. :yep: It's just like any other conditioner except better.
Try the styling creme too if you want extra added heat protection.

I am relaxed but I only use heat once every 8-10 weeks when I get my touch-up.

I air dry for the most part, so I haven't flat ironed or used a blow dryer. right after I have used WEN on my hair. But someoone else will be able to tell you how the hair responds to heat. :yep:

Too expensive.
Honestly in this day and age, there are so many cheap things that can get the job done. Think about how many thousands of dollars you're gonna have to spend on WEN over a couple years..

***JN whispering in JustKiya's ear, "just get the small size..."**

I should be on a Buy Nothing Challenge! That's for sure!

My SO sold one of his gold coins from his coin collection; I told him I need a new dishwasher and some more OVATION & WEN!

I love that man....:sigh:

Blasphemy!!!!:lachen::lachen:

Seriously, I have tried the cheapies, Kitchen concoctions, salon products and everything else in between and NOTHING works for me like WEN. I view my hair and skin care products as investments in myself, WEN has given me high returns and I'm sticking with it.

Plus, I love getting things in the mail!!!!:look:

I don't use direct heat, but I rollerset twice a week with the bonnet dryer with NO problem. When I do my girlfriends hair or my moms hair sometimes I blow dry and flat iron and it always turns out nice. :yep:

What would you rec? I love hearing about comparable items that can be substituted.

I did order the WEN today but will cancel if there is something else out there a little less expensive that will do the same thing!:yep:

I was just about to ask if there were any natural heads that have used it. I've seen Wen on tv for awhile but never thought to purchase.

The concept of the conditioner wash piques my interest; however the easy detangling of this curly mess better known as my hair is what's first and foremost. That and moisture, which my hair sucks up like the sahara.

Right now, I'm using Aubrey’s White Camilla Conditioner or either OUIDAD's Curl Quencher Conditioner depending on how I feel. And OUIDAD does wonders for detangling; I just don't like all the ingredients in it. :ohwell:

Anyway, I was reading some of the reviews over at amazon.com and most are very positive, especially about the Fig and curly/coarse hair types.

Hmm...

Do I really need to buy another conditioner?

I would buy a reconstrutor to use on your your ends occasionally
since that's your oldest and most fragile hair. A deep conditoner
under a dryer is great at least once a month IMHO. Chaz Dean
does sell a hair masque/deep conditioner now, I believe. Check
out his web site. I know I heard a blurb about such an item while
listening to his informercial as back ground noise recently. I would
also reccommend his fig hair oil for shine and sealing your hair. I
do use his oil AND the fig conditoning cleanser on my daughter's hair.

Great stuff. My daughter has natural 4b hair that is that funny
brown/sandy color that never seems to shine and feels like a
brillo pad if I don't stay on top of her hair maintenance. Let me tell
you, her teachers noticed a change in her hair immediately and they
don't tend to notice much about "ethnic" hair.

I've been using the Wen CC for almost a year now (I've been natural for 2 years this past April). I have to say that it really makes a big difference in how my hair looks and feels (I think I'm a 4a/b). I started off using the Fig which was fine but then I wanted to try the other CC. Now I find that I prefer the Sweet Almond Mint. After I CW, I put a little more in as a leave-in and I'm able to style with just my hands -- it defines the curls and my edges and nape will lay smooth without brushing. It dries without any crunch and the hair stays soft all day. Some mornings I just rinse my hair without CW'ing and then put a little CC in.

Is there a diff between the fig and the sweet almond as far as performance...or do you just prefer the fragrance?
