    Giovanni direct leave-in thank goodness it was the smaller bottle.... my hair was a tangled mess and dry from using it...but I don't consider my hair to be protein sensitive and my hair is not naturally dry.

    1. giovanni direct leave-in........hated the wy the product felt and it made my hair damn near impossible to detangle.
    2. shea butter.....made my hair greasy w/o actually moisturizing it.
    3. sulfur.....wth?
    4. msm.......no noticeable changes to my hair.
    5. elasta qp deep conditioner (dr11, i think?)....... didn't see the big deal...no dramatic results compared to other conditioners i've tried.

    WHAT DOES WORK-----
    1. henna.... loves it! i usually follow it with indigo to keep my hair black.
    2. roots vegetable glycerin......mixed with other stuff(mostly water), it moisturizes
    like nobody's business.

    Creme of nature shampoo green bottle - made my hair hard and matted

    Elasta QP DPR-11 not moisturizing at all. Even when I mixed with oil and/or honey and/or glycerin.

    Nexxus humectress my hair scoffed and said " Ha, surely you jest. You call this moisture?"

    oil rinsing.

    Pre-poos with straight oil.

    VO5 conditioners felt good wet hard when dry.

    Cowashing.

    ETA: Pantene R&N Breakage defence mask my hair felt the same way when I used to use nexxus humcetress

    Nacidit conditioners.

    Shea butter
    Jojoba oil
    Herbal Essences

    I'm sure there were more but I got rid of them a long time ago. Gave several away at work a few months ago. One man's lump of coal, is another's diamond, i guess.

    Time tells the tale, we must simply wait and be shown the truth.

    Beyond the Zone Noodle head didn't define my daughter's 4a coils. No matter what I did, it just sat on her hair.

    NTM! Hated it! The only thing I liked was the serum.

    Joico K Pak! Once again, only the serum was nice. The line had my hair dry and breaking. It took two weeks to recover. Never again!!!

    Beyond the Zone Heat Protecting Spray -- a joke. Dry, crunchy hair.

    Silk Elements Line - coated, dry hair.

    Beyond the Zone wax stick thingy - my edges laughed at it.

    HE LTR - the leave in is ok. But the shampoo and conditioner - dry, tangled mess!

    Redken - my hair hates everything redken. I don't care what new product is out, I know to steer clear because Redken and my hair flat out don't get along. The heat protector sucked engorged monkey balls.

    I don't even wana try Aveda now because I just know I'm gona be disappointed. Me and Aphogee are straight.

    EcoStyler gel - it wasn't horrible, but it def was no match for my IC Fantasia olive oil gel.
    I get lots more shine with IC and my hair doesn't get so stiff (like it did with EcoStyler).

    I wanted Ecostyler to work simply b/c it was cheaper.

    Neem Oil - P to the U


    I'd love all Nexxus products I'll gladly pay for shipping,
    as well as Silk elements products, I love that line.

    APhogee still alive an kicking in my house, with nexxus, silk elements and Motions. Staples for me!!!

    LYE RELAXERS (including Mizani Butter Blends)
