Hairveda Amala Cream Rinse....STUFF IS NICE! My hair was soft and clean upon rinsing. Glad I took the plunge on the Deluxe size because I really like it
.
Tresemme Naturals Vibrantly Smooth Conditioner....This is far better then the nourishing moisture. It detangles like a dream, smoothed my 18 weeks post new growth like no ones business and left my hair super supple. Definite repurchase
Miss:
Coffee Rinses...Sadly I'm just not feeling it. It doesn't reduce shedding, my hair isn't softer then when I use tea and I don't really like smelling it for 30+ minutes

Long processing times
Poor CS. I can't stand vendors that don't communicate with buyers.

Big hit: Darcys deep conditioning Moisturizing hair mask. My hair melted instantly. I left it on for about 2 hours under shower cap no heat. My hair was very soft, fluffy, and airdried butter soft. I love my SD SWD and RCA for the same reason, but i prefer the ease of application of this conditioner. Although honestly RCA is a tad more moisturizing.
That is the one conditioner i need at least 5 jars of come black friday. I wish it was cheaper though. 20$ for 8 oz is cruel. As heavy handed as i am, i can barely get 3 uses out of it. I usually need 3 oz to completely smooth my 4b dry hair.

@ronie Yep. DB DC'ers is one of my all-time Favs!
Yes i got it after i heard you and lamaria211 rave about it. I was hesitant at first cause pumpkin seed was a waste of money for me. So thanks for the tip girls.

Relaxing with Silk Elements No lye... first time in years I used no lye.. very pleased with my results!
Learning that 4 month stretch is the max.. after that I lose too much hair
Realizing how healthy my hair looks! I gained length but cut off 2 inches... my hair prior to my hair journey is thinner and damaged.
Aphogee for damaged hair
Aphogee 2 min reconstructor
French stabilizer works better as the finally step for me
Silk Dreams RCA
Miss:
All the shedding I experienced in the last month of my stretch.. smh
Not having enough time to dedicate to my hair
HV 24/7 moist conditioner

Hit: Curl Mart Shipping
They're pretty fast now!! Yay! And they included 5 samples in my order before their announcement that they had the promotion going on. I wish they had more brands though but I understand about the short shelf life of some products.
Curly Kinks Coil Jam - Awesome gel. Doesn't flake and has the best slip out of all the gels I've tried (Claudie's, Koils by Nature, and Amazing Botanicals). Really slightly sticky but the stickiness goes away when it dries. Not that great at holding down my edges but I use it to twist. Extremely moisturizing gel and I will always have it in stock!!
ETA:
I had to also add The Pomade Shop's Peppermint Balm (with sulfur) smells awesome!! It actually makes my hair smell better! I thought that after being out in the sun, the sulfur would become pungent and smell through the yummy fragrance but it didn't. Definitely my staple sulfur pomade now.. I had some issues with my Claudie sulfur pomade smelling through..it was PUNGENT but probably has more sulfur.
Miss:
Elucence Moisture Benefits Shampoo
At first I really like this shampoo because of the awesome slip I got in the shower but I started to notice that my hair became dry and crispy even after DC'ing and I would have to apply a lot more leavein than usual. It had this weird chemical smell after I applied it to my hair. I wanted to love it

Revisited Hit - Hot 6 Oil. Havent used this in years. I literally use ONE drop every 3 days and my hair is loving it.
Continued hit - sleeping with a stocking cap over a silk scarf. The breakage from tying my scarf in the back that literally kept causing setbacks has stopped. Since my cut a little over 3 months ago, my ends are still perfect. I didnt even need a trim with my last touch up.
On the fence - Neem. It works off and on with my SD. The things I read about neem and fertility scared me off of it. Stopped using it.
