Hair Products 101: What I'm using.

Hi Folks!

So I've been playing around with hair products and thought I'd share what I've been using and thinking about using.

Blue Magic Coconut Oil : I really like this hair oil. It looks more like a grease and even feels like it would be heavy, but when you rub some in your hands and through your hair.. its soft, not heavy at all and smells great. I'm mad I didn't start using it years ago.

Ampro Clear Protein Gel: This gel has a strong hold but doesn't' flake like some. It also doesn't have an odor like the dark protein gels do. I like it.

Paul Mitchel Shampoo: This shampoo does a good job of cleaning the "junk" out of my hair. It does leave my hair feeling slightly dry so I'm searching for a TRUE moisturizing shampoo. If you have any suggestions let me know.

Paul Mitchel Conditioner: This conditioner is GREAT! In fact it has shea butter in it and leaves my hair feeling soft and silky!I can comb through my hair and after washing it out, my hair is soft.

Aphogee Leave in Conditioner: This is the best leave in conditioner I've tried in years. I've tried Carol's daughter black Vanilla leave in conditioner but I felt like it left my hair heavy and "junky" feeling. The Aphogee brand was like water to the touch so I'll try and get a spray bottle to apply it next time. After I blow dried my hair it felt silky and smooth! Love it!

I've tested out the Aphogee Style Wrap mousse. It is nice, but does the same job as Motions Light Mousse.

I visited a good friend and Soror over the New year who showed me all the Kinky Curly products she had and we had a little hair tutorial! So I'm going to try a few things from that line.
I think I'm also going to try out Carol's Daughter's Hair Milk.

Since I've been working out I want to try a dry shampoo to get me through the week. I'm thinking about testing out these techniques from the Beauty Brains website.

I welcome you to comment on any of these products and give me suggestions! I love organizing and buy hair stuff!

Until Next Time!

Stay Nappy Stay Happy!
