Before you cast any stones, yes I know... where is the 10th product image ?!! I ran out of the mystery tenth product so a mention will have to suffice! Here goes my low down on why these really are a 'transitioner approved' top ten!
N A K E D little miracle leave-in conditioner - I came across this product just over a month ago and have added it to my staples list. Marketed as a leave-in conditioner it's slightly thick consistency smooths unto your hair and works well in doing this whilst also moisturising and softening. I use this after washing my hair and also mid week to refresh my twist outs for blending with my homegirl Creta! All in all it's great for a light no crunch hold and leaves you with super soft bouncy results. #canIgetawhoopwhoop
J A N E C A R T E R S O L U T I O N revitalizing leave-in conditioner - A joint first place with the naked leave-in, this JCS product
is what I describe to friends as hair okra. The slip it provides supersedes
that of any leave-in I have ever used, and for that I love it!!! I have used
this almost every day since receiving it a few months ago and it does a great
job of super softening new growth. I would recommend this for any and all hair
types and can imagine you going spray crazy with this stuff like I do
everyday!
C O C O N U T O I L extra
Virgin - Does this require an explanation? Coconut
oil has been one of my faves since the very early days of my 'haircare
journey'. It has proved itself even more so worthy of a double thumbs up during
my transition because of the wonders it works when used as a hot oil
treatment/deep conditioner. I won't go into the nitty gritty because I'm sure
you already know this is not my first rave about EVCO. Does the 'Coconut
Relaxer' ring a bell? Check out these posts for the scoop! [1], [2], [3], [4]
J A N E C A R T E R S O L U T I O N curl defining cream - The 2nd JCS product in the list, Jane definitely had me in mind when she started up! I absolutely love and depend on this, plus it's name definitely holds true, this stuff defines!!! The cream gives great slip, has an ambrosia custard consistency and again if you're after soft bouncy curls with no residue or crunch then this cream is that and more #gonewiththewindfabulous. I use it for blending my hair with the infamous Creta Girl, and for my new staple weekend perm rod twist out. Unlike the Naked leave-in which I at times double up as a curl cream, this is more creamy and also gives your hair a nice amount of shine.
O R S O L I V E O I L Replenishing Conditioner - Number one DC award for me has to go to this conditioner, from relaxed to almost natural this DC has been my number one. Paired with the Curl Harmony DC this provides slip slip and more slip. Even better, on days when my hair is in need of extra deep conditioning I definitely do not shy away from squeezing this all over my hair because the price tag is a winner #swipewswipekeepthechange. It smells great, softens, and its velvety texture leaves your hair feeling very well looked after.
A N I T A G R A N T Babassu Amla Shampoo Bar - I use this shampoo bar on days when my hair needs good clarifying following the use of many curling creams and hot oil treatments. This is not to say that the shampoo is in anyway stripping however it leaves your hair squeaky clean, a common find with most 100% natural shampoo bars. It was the use of this shampoo and an eventful washday session that made me realize this time 21 months ago that my hair had not properly relaxed and henceforth my transition would begin. If you're natural or transitioning you will find this shampoo really makes your curls POP!
