For those who are in the market for some new products or are trying to change up your hair routine, here are my product staples. These are the products I’ve been loving lately and some of them are the hair products I just can’t live without. All these products work in a way that my hair preserves moisture and provides me with bomb curls or ginormous hair.
Giovanni’s Direct Leave-In Weightless Moisture Conditioner
This leave in conditioner is hair crack! After shampooing my hair can be really tangles and dry but this product has soooo much slip it’s ridiculous! I love love love this stuff. It leaves my curls moist and locks in moisture for days! That’s right, I said it; it locks in moisture for days. It makes detangling a whole lot easier too. If you need a leave in with some slip and usually do the L.O.C. Method or the L.C. Method, I suggest this leave-in. It will not disappoint!
Agadir Argan Oil Voluminzing Styling & Sculpting Gel
This stuff right here is EVERYTHING! Once I got the hang of how to use the stuff it was smooth sailing! A little goes a long ways with this product. I often use this for a fluffy twist out or braid out. I’m not keen on using this for wash n go’s. I don’t wear too many wash n go’s but when I do this product will not do. It’s a bit heavy for my wash n go’s but for stretched styles this stuff works perfectly. I wouldn’t recommend this for laying down edges as it can leave the tender hairs near your nape a bit crunchy and weak but other than that this product is AWESOME!
Organix renewing Argan oil of Morocco Intense Moisturizing Treatment
This is by far my favorite deep treatment! After many years of using heavy oiled down conditioners, I’ve finally given this conditioner a try and it has light oil (Argan Oil) with lots of slip. My hair is somewhat fine so it does not respond well to heavy products. I find my hair behaves better with lighter weight products that provide maximum moisture. This product falls under that category. It smells amazeballs too! I highly recommend this deep treatment if your hair is thirsty but cannot handle to many heavy products at a time.
Organix Hydrating Macadamia Oil Shampoo
I did no-poo for years but thought I’d revisit the idea of shampoo again after I realized ACV wasn’t getting all the build up like I thought. This shampoo does it exactly what I need it to do. I cleansing my hair with one application and does not dry it out or tangle my hair as much as other shampoos. My fine hair can’t take shampoo but I knew I needed something that would get my scalp clean but still keep my strands protected. I use to use the Phytospecific Shampoo they discontinued this line at Sephora then reintroduced it back to Sephora with significantly higher pricing! Smh. I just can’t pay $40.00 bucks for a 6oz. shampoo tube. I JUST CAN’T.
Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Restorative Conditioner
I love this as a leave in and as a regular conditioner. The fact that it is a two in one is great, but most importantly this conditioner/leave-in has a lot of slip. I use this in between wash days, as a co-wash, as a leave-in, as conditioner, to mop my floors and cook with….LOL j/k. But for real this stuff is multi-purpose! By far a holy grail and a product I refuse to live without!
As I Am Coconut CoWash Cleansing Conditioner
I like this stuff for in between washes for when my scalp is dirty and to dirty for a light Shea Moisture conditioner. This stuff gets the scalp and hair super clean without the tangles and dryness. It’s not my ultimate favorite product and I’m not in love with it but I am in like with it. I’ll keep it around for a bit longer until something better comes along. Yeah, don’t judge me; I’m one of those product junkies. LOL
100% Raw Unrefined Coconut Oil, 100% Raw Unrefined Jojoba Oil, 100% Raw Avocado Oil, 100% Raw Unrefined Apricot Oil, 100% Raw Unrefined Jamaican Black Castor Oil
What can I say, I love oils. These oils are used in different ways in my routine for the most part but I love them all the same. I use them for pre-pooing, hot oil treatments, sealing ends, for skin, for cooking (Coconut Oil) These oils are the ultimate holy grail. These are the oils I must have in stock at all times. Overall, I must have the coconut oil in stock ALL THE TIME. It is my hair crack and keeps my hair shiny, strong and resistant against the elements.
Hope this helps all my product junkies out there!
