Soooooo! My stuff showed up today!
Okay.
Consistency:
Cream Rinse: Really thin and light - cheapie con consistency
Rehydrant Mist: Clear Liquid
Avocado Mist: Clear Liquid
Smell:
Cream Rinse: Smells like an unscented conditioner - really faint smell that reminds me of something else - almost like deodorant? Overall mild scent.
Rehydrant Mist: Smells like angry fruit.
It sounds insane - but - ah! Smells like sour jolly ranchers. Sweet, but with a tart edge.
Avocado Mist: Oh my gods, this stuff smells good enough to DRINK. Very sweet and fruity, but not strong.
Hair Feel: (I layered all three - in this order - on one section of my hair)
Cream Rinse: Made my hair softer - pratically melted out the few tangles I had left, the Denman went through like butta. I don't have any fully tangled hair - I think that would have been an interesting experiment. Made my ends feel a little - bumpy/rough/unsmooth.
Rehydrant Mist: Layered on top, softness ramped up another level. Ends went to silk.
Avocado Mist: My hair really couldn't have gotten any softer - but now the hair feels lightly coated - coated isn't even the right word - it feels like it's been treated, somehow. It feels - moist, but it's mostly dry. I'm waiting for it to dry all the way, and then I'll fondle it again, and see if it still feels this way.
I've been sitting here brushing though this one section of hair for a couple of minutes now - I'm a natural, and my hair normally does NOT stay detangled for much longer than it takes me to slap in a fast twist. Right now, I'm being bold, and letting the products air dry on a LOOSE section of detangled hair.
It's staying soft, and fluffly, and loose - and most importantly, detangled.
And SOFT! I'm not sure it's a good thing for my hair to be this soft. I haven't looked in the mirror yet, so I can't say anything about shine. It also feels like it's given my hair more body. My fingers feel a little coated too - almost how your hands feel after a really good paraffin treatment - not coated, but insanely smooth.
I'm going out today to get two small spray bottles for the Avocado and Rehydrant mist, too.
I'm freaking out a little, because I have no clue how to incorporate these into my routine - and I MUST, because I'm loving the crazy soft hair.
