These are my new obsession. I have been on a mission to catch--er, try them all.
Smoothing Shea is great for detangling. It is very heavy, so you'll have to clarify to get rid of buildup every now and then. I also use a bit as a leave-in. It has been one of only 2 products that will tame my edges. Nothing actually
made for edges works. I have cowlick like crazy, starting around 3 weeks post relaxer and this stuff makes it look presentable.
Fortifying Lavender Soy Milk was a disaster...I guess reading is fundamental and I should have realized that anything with 'fortifying' in the name is bound to be protein overload. My hair was a hard and tangled mess. I had to rewash and condition with Nourish Spa. Last time I buy something because of the smell. (I lied. There will be a next time.)
I have Healing Mandarin Olive Oil and Nourishing Acai Berry Avocado on standby. The Mandarin Olive Oil doesn't smell like anything...very faint citrus. If it has Mandarin in the name, I want it to smell like Orange Pine Sol in this piece. If it doesn't smell like anything it makes me think it won't do anything, either. Acai Avocado smells awesome, though. Can't wait to try it.
Coconut Milk has had mostly rave reviews...I will have to buy it and try it out. I'm not crazy about the smell. It is the Hustleman of coconut scents to me, very bootleg.
I did try the Coconut Milk Anti-Breakage serum on damp hair a few days ago. It didn't feel very good going on and I remember thinking "I'm going to look like a HAM sandwich in the morning...
" Color me surprised when it dried all smooth and shiny.
2 days later and my ends are still sealed and not frizzy at all. New growth is relatively laid, too. I like it so far.
Next on my list is Moisturizing Grapefruit Mango and Instant Repair Cocoa Butter. Awakening Mocha Espresso is looking kinda good... too bad it appears to be another Lavender Soy Milk in that it smells great but will have my head looking like straw. I will have to purchase from Amazon. The selection sucks here. They no longer sell the Organix Line at our Target and our Walmart is always out of stock or they don't sell it, period.
