I have a Liter of the Elucence (Grapefruit) Acidifying Shampoo which Neutralizes, Chelates, Clarifies.

I still have yet to try Redken Cleansing Crème.

I know Elucence has another Clarifying 'Poo too. I think it's the Volumizing?

Very as eluence didn't feel like it cleaned enough.

I don't know if its because I have high porosity hair that Elucence as long as I don't get too heavy handed cleans just right. My hair and scalp doesn't hold on to product long so the Redken did a deeper clean then what my strands can handle. My roots were soft and puffy but my ends were stripped and tangled.

Nice Review.:yep:

What Elucence Shampoo are you using? The Grapefruit one or the Blue one?

The eluence does everything but it didn't cleans enough for me. I have the same one, I never tried the volumizing one.

I might be the case. My hair still feels smooth after using it, just clean and not stripped. It made it feel stripped once before, but I will admit I wasn't using many products that would cause build-up at the time.

Continued hits: APB leave-in, hair creams including ayurvedic blend
Hit: dusting my ends finally
Using APB ayurvedic hair cream, key lime hair and body butter and smooth naturals hair perfection for the best twist out ever in life! Moisturized hair: check, just right amount of hold: check, definition for days: double check, shiny hair: check, not having to re twist my hair at night: priceless!

Massive Hits -

Silicon Mix ~ OMG!!!! I could not keep my hands out of my hair with this stuff in it.....so shiny and moisturized and so much slip. I am transitioning, almost fully natural and my 2 dd's are fully natural and we all used this stuff this weekend and boy could I tell the difference when I blow dryed my youngest dd hair. :up:

And each and every hair strand said .... AMEN!!

Silicon mix is EVERYTHING. It fixes everthing, revives dry hair, melts away tangles. Just everything.
-----------------------------------------------

New hit - Cantu Shea Butter. I don't know where this has been all my life. It's amazing and keeps my hair moisturised for days.

Continued hit- Silicon Mix of course.

I was a 1st time customer and it took me a good 8-10 weeks to get my stuff. No response etc....

I had to filed a PayPal Dispute on them before I could even get a response.

And I was right at that 45 days too.:ohwell:

Girl, they opened/closed went on vacation/sabbatical sailed around the world on a slow boat to China to study with the Dai Lama.:rolleyes:

Never Again.:nono:

Miss: my bantu knots not being dry after 8 hours overnight. My hair doesnt look bad, as I like the untamed look. But its not what I had in mind...

Reading this thread has me missing my old loves. I stayed dc'ing with Silicon mix! I may have to try it out again since I'll be straightening my hair more often. And that Alter Ego garlic shampoo/hot oil was the bidness

Miss:
Bobeam Stimulate Condish as a pre-poo. Love it as a DC though.

On the fence:
SSI Tahitian Vanilla Leave in. Ehhh I'm not super impressed. DB Spritz and APB Leave in (even my diluted version) seem to work better.

Continued Hits:
SSI Blueberry cowash
SM Manuka Honey Masque

I really like these two!

New Hits!:

Shea Moisture Manuka Honey Shampoo, Conditioner and Deep Treatment Mask

It was perfect for before surgery because I was able to manage my hair without product and now a week later my hair still feels somewhat moisturized while I am recovering.

I love finding a convenient cost effective hit! :reddancer:

I am about to return to the Sarenzo beads chocolate butter that Beamodel was mentioning up-thread. I keep forgetting it and then I get a friendly reminder :yep: I can also layer it with my APB leave in pudding in pumpkin spice. Hmm. I have to be careful when I use that though, not everyone likes the smell.

IDareT'sHair

I am never buying from Sarenzo again though. The customer service was a joke. I had to melt my butter and mix it several times to resolve consistency issues. Now, it' s good enough to use only after I made adjustments. I see where you are coming from.:yep:

There needs to be an "Unreliable" vendor listing so that I can make informed choices while purchasing.

I am doing good. I had sinus surgery and things seem to be coming around. I was experiencing migraines near daily until finally the ear nose and throat doctor had a CT scan done and told me that I would need surgery. This is looking like one of the best decisions I have ever made :yep:.

Thank you for the well wishes ronie and PJaye

Peeks head in thread. In regards to Sarenzo

I dont buy her hair products anymore. Just the body items. Ive ordered every three months and my items have arrived in under a week after processing.

Just placed an order last Friday. Will see how long it takes to arrive. I also will be ordering on Black Friday.
