Product Review

Since I cut off my locks I am back to being a product junkie. I know I should know better but lets face it, what works with locked hair doesn't necessarily work the same with loose hair.

My hair is #4 and is very thick and tightly curled. The curl is S shaped and since it is short the curls are very close to my scalp. Of course I want to highlight the curls and I plan on trying products that will bring out the curliness in my course hair.

Currently I am using Carol's Daughter Hair Milk what is suppose to define curls. I am also using the Tui oil to keep my scalp moist.




The Tui Oil smells grrrrrrrrrrreat and I really like using it. I cant boast of any added benefits outside the smell. My scalp seems to like it as it is not flaky or anything. It's easy to get carried away with the oil, which I have several times. Oil be running down the side of my face..... reminiscent of my Jerri Curl days. It also works well as a hot oil treatment. This product is what I call a luxe product because the benefits can be achieved by purchasing some Hot Six oil found in the beauty supply store. Hell, or any oil of you prefer.






Now this moisturizer is suppose to define the curls in my hair. Well it is very thin and my thirsty hair will devour anything that is thinner than the consistency of yogurt. By itself my hair will be dry and brittle by 10am, so I often add leave in conditioner and a little spritz of water infused with the Tui oil. Once I do this my hair seems to be a little softer and the curls seem to be highlight. This product may work well for women with thinner hair or those with a little wave but it does nothing for me. I will not purchase this product again it was a total waste of money.




This shampoo smells good and my hair seems to feel very curly when I am in the shower. However it could be the water making it extra curly. Again this is a luxe item. In my opinion shampoo is for cleaning the scalp and the hair only. I've never met a shampoo that did any more than that. They may be out there but I have not experienced them. I would probably not purchase this product again either. Maybe once I try another shampoo I can compare the two and better determine if it was worth the money. But right now I am pretty sure that it doesn't help define the curls.




In the next week or so I have some Miss Jessie's products coming. I will review these products as well.
