I have the original Sabino and Cowboy Magic detangler and shine. I like them both. I think I'll use the Cowboy Magic from now on, though. The same ingredients as sabino with the addition of panthenol. Much cheaper, also. For what I paid for my tiny bottle of sabino I got a huge bottle of Cowboy magic that I've been using for forever.

I get mine from the site. www.sabinohair.com I believe they are giving away free samples now. I think I paid about $22.

I was reading the description of Cowboy Magic since I'd never heard of it. Then I came to the part that says 'works on people too'.
. Didn't know it was for horses.

I read the ingredients for Cowboy Magic. Your hair is not the same composition as horse or dog hair. They have dilutives, which may make your hair look good for a little while but once you are exposed to climate changes, it fails. Moisture Block is now named Lok and Blok. All other silicone products are made with cheaper industrial silicones. While the dilutives make it easier to spread through your hair, the water solubility leaves your hair vulnerable. Also, the heat from the flat iron burns off the layer of application so if you go over the same area more than once, you are now burning raw hair. Lok and Blok (aka Moisture Block) only requires one pass with the iron. Yes, Lok and Blok (aka Moisture Block) is more money than Cowboy Magic because only contains a perfect balance of pure 100% high quality cosmetic silicones, that's why it out performs all other products. It is designed for human hair. It is shampoo soluble, not water soluble, which protect's your hair from shampoo to shampoo. It is the only product that Lok's in essential moisture and Blok's out excess moisture. The heat from the flat iron actually pushes Lok and Blok deeper into the hair shaft but heat is not necessary. What’s better, buying a cheap product or having healthier hair? What's better, looking good when you finish styling or how your hair looks by the end of each day? Go to www.gotfrizz.com and discover a world of healthier hair. After all, your hair is worth it. Important!!! please go to this link and watch this video about conditioners. http://www.sciencedaily.com/videos/2006/0110-protecting_your_hair.htm. One more thing, if you order the sample of Lok and Blok be sure to read and follow the instructions carefully prior to application. Only apply to one area for testing against your current products if you have thick or long hair.

:blush3:
I forgot to mention it's made for horses, originally. But you know how resourceful LHCF is! 
We started discussing alternatives when sabino changed their formula and some of the ladies liked it when it just had the two cones. So someone mentioned how cowboy magic detangler is just those two cones and panthenol.. which started a band wagon, as it were! 
I got mine at a local horse shop (Tak shop, I think they're called) while I was in there looking for... um... megatek
Anyhow, I've seen it online at amazon also. It's the detangler.

I used John Frieda's frizz ease serum the last time I flat ironed. That's the picture in my siggy. It kept my hair straight in July weather. I also like that I can pick it up in the grocery store and it's less than $10. I'll be using this from now on.
I tried Sabino a few summers ago and it was nothing to write home about. I must have used too much (bc I thought it wasn't working) and it made my hair limp and stringy. That coupled with the price and the fact that I have to order it online make me not want to buy it again. It was just okay.

All natural!
I agree. I've used Frizz ease, Chi, Biosilk, and other serums and this does what is promised. But be sure to look for LOK&BLOK which is what it is called now. I use it when I shampoo my hair and airdry; it locks in the moisture very well, and prolongs my bk treatments. I especially like how, when I flat iron with it, my own sweat/sebum from sleeping and showering will not plaster my hair down and make it feel limp. This stuff performs differently than any other serum I have used. If I know I'm going to be washing my hair very often (like after workouts) I do use a cheaper version but that's just because I know I will be washing it out the very next day and don't want to waste it.
