What do relaxed ladies use for a daily moisturizer?

[CatSuga]

I know every shampoo and condition y'all use, but no body ever talks about a good moisturizer. (I'm asking for some lost soul on BHM)

 

[Tene]

I use conditioner or ors olive oil.

 

[hot_pepper96]

UBH Dew Spray
Just starting S-Curl
Mango Butter

 

[Suri]

Until I came here, I never placed too much emphasis on moisterizers. I've heard ladies say that Pink Oil Moisturizer is a good one.

My staples so far are:
ORS Carrot and Olive Oil
Parnevu (great at locking moisture)
EVOO
Jojoba Oil
Shea Butter
Amla and Jasmine Oil

Oops I just noticed your title, I am half relaxed (9 mos. post) but these products work well on both of my textures. HTH

 

[Nenah]

Right now I'm just using these two


Black Castor Oil
Water

 

[CandiceC]

Right now I use:

EVOO
Keracare moisturizer w/ jojoba oil
Nexxus Botanic Oil (has a mixture of essential oils in it)

 

[vickid]

Surge Wooge Cream and Parnevu Tea Tree Cream
Ends--alternate with Salerm 21 and Profective ends

 

[Cowgirl]

I use a mixed up concoction as my moisturizer.

16oz spray bottle:
1/2 filled with distilled water
1/4 filled with Nexxus Humectress for moisture
1/8 filled with Nexxus Keraphix for protein
1/8 filled with oils (EVOO & Coconut)
Shake really well and spray.

These measurements are approximate as I don't measure anything precise.

I tried using the S-curl as a moisturizer but it made my hair to mushy. I think I might need to try the porosity control to see if maybe my hair is too porous.

 

[CarLiTa]

i wanna know too...

i've been using the ORS olive oil for a while now and i'm starting to not like how it makes my hair greasy after a while, like i can't use it everyday because when i run my hands on my hair, it's oily!

so i laid off that one for a while, now i'm using Motions Oil Moisturizer, which i used to use before i got the ORS olive oil *just because i wanted to try it)... it leaves my hair soft, especially when i put it on at night followed by my satin scarf... it penetrates the hair shaft and doesnt' leave an oily residue on top. my hair feels soft but u can't really tell it has anything on it.

for my ends, i've been looking and looking and LOOKING for the EQP mango butter EVERYWHERE and i can't find it. i'm going to order it online. As of right now, I use a mixture of water, rose water + glycerine, S-Curl, and some other leave-ins and moisturizers that have been hanging around the house. it works well if i spray the ends more than twice a day... but i NEED the mango butter! i'm also gonna get Unrefined shea butter and see how that works

 

[Sweet C]

Hollywood Beauty Carrot Oil and Carrot Creme.

Has anyone tried the ORS Olive Oil Moisturizing Lotion?

 

[Babygurl]

Water, QP Mango Butter, QP Recovery....oil to seal (shea or coconut)

First 2 weeks after a relaxer I use Motions Light Oil Moisturizer.

 

[karmelsassy]

Hollywood Beauty Carrot Oil and Carrot Creme.

Has anyone tried the ORS Olive Oil Moisturizing Lotion?

I use the ORS Olive Oil Moisturizing Lotion. It's pretty good at moisturizing but I can only use it every other day becasue my hair is fine and this tends to weigh my hair down. It makes my hair feel to greasy if I use it too often.
HTH

 

[mzcaramelicious07]

I've tried a million moisturizers...oils, lotions, cremes...everything. I fell in love in Cathy Howse's Creme, but it is getting to expensive to order it all of the time online. I went to Sally's and got Silk Elements Anti-Breakage Creme and that stuff is the bomb!!!!!! I love it! So, I roller set with that and then throughout the week, I'll put Wild Growth Oil on my ends and that Silk Elements creme on my roots.

 

[Sosoothing]

I currently use

sta-sof-fro
BB oil moisturizer

Have used:

Motions lotion, I actually liked it and might try it again.

 

[TrulyBlessed]

When relaxed I used:

Elasta QP Oil Recovery sealed with a bit of WGO (This combo used to work wonders!!)

BB Castor Oil Lotion

 

[Nita81]

I use this Natural Locks Hair oil blend that I picked up from Sevananda(Atlanta) in Little Five Points. This oil is very good and non greasy!!!

 

[TrulyBlessed]

No problem I LOVE 80's nostalgia!!!!!! Don't get me started!!!

 

[sareca]

I use UBH daily moisturizer from Cathy Howse. I burn through about 32oz/month applying it three times a day. I'm not married to it, but it works better than the other products I've used. My hair despises dimethicone or anything ending in "icone," so my choices are limited. I also use OJon at night under a baggie with my moisturizer.

 

[controlFreak]

I use the following products in the following order:

tigi ego boost
olive oil
vitale hair polish

my hair has never felt better, despite the fact im flat ironing almost everyday now

 

[isawstars]

I don't recommend Pink's oil sheen. It smells good but i found it a bit drying.

I use S-Curl, and leave in conditioners such as... Kera Care, Ganier's Long & Strong.

 

[HoneyDew]

Profectiv Break Free or Root health for me.

 

[MizAvalon]

I use Shea Butter, but not everyday. It's too heavy for that.

Those "Pink" products are disgusting!

 

[SUPER SWEET]

Those "Pink" products are disgusting!

They have too much mineral oil . My hair hates that.

I like surge extra moisturizing stuff ,motion 9 oil and WGO in a spray bottle.

 

[miracle]

Isoplus Black Magic Creme Oil Moisturizer

 

[macherieamour]

Right now, I use ORS Olive Oil and Motions Oil sheen. Im a 4a/b

 

[Lorraine]

Love UBH moisturizer as well as Mizani Rosewater hairdress.

 

[carmella25]

I usually use water and , infusium 23 and conditioner. I put it in a spray bottle.

 

[carmella25]

I use water and i also combine my conditioners together in a spray bottle with infusium 23 and water.

I usually spary my hair 2 to 3 times a day.

 

[SandySea]

I use Profectiv Breakfree. My hair loves it and has been looking much healthier since I started using it about a year ago. It also gives my hair more body (I have fine hair). When used in moderation, it is a great asset to my regimen.
