What are your fav products/product lines? Not ones we have to add stuff too. I've tried MANY different lines and the one that seems the most consistent/best for me (as least the stylers) is Blended Beauty.
Also, I want to jump on the Dominican Product wagon. I have dry hair and am wearing it in weaves. I want something to help with moisture and in a perfect world, frizz and shrinkage. Any suggestions which products to start with? Especially a good conditioner and deep conditioner?
Thanks!
Hi JessicaRabbit. I mainly only use Dominican conditioners. Although I am relaxed, I get the same effects for my new growth as I do with my relaxed portions. I usually mix them all up for a Dominican cocktail when I henna for cumulative benefits that each offers; however, they're all good enough to use on their own. Here are my favorites and ones I highly recommend:
Capillo Avocado Hair Conditioning- It really helps with my hair elasticity; it makes my hair stretchy, yet strong.
Capilo Honey and Milk Conditioner- This by far the best one. It melts away matting/tangles. I haven't experienced matting since I started using this. It also helps with detangling. The rinse is good too.
Tropical Degil Wheat Germ- It helps my hair retain moisture longer and makes my hair airdry a bit softer.
Lafier Proteinol- Makes my hair stronger.
Silicon Mix- This is good and smells good. I used it as a moisturizer when I flat iron my hair.
Toque Agico Emergencia- I LOVE THIS STUFF. If I had to recommend one, it would be a toss up between this and Honey and Milk. It's supposed to be a mild protein treatment, but it acts like a moisturizing one. It strengthens my hair, but makes it softer, easy to detangle, and melts matting as well. I use it like I would use aphogee (apply it to the hair, blow dry till dry, rinse out with cold water). It also stopped my shedding.
