Pros: Leaves my hair like silk, soft and manageable.
Cons: cannot keep name one.

Hope others will speak up.

I have YET to purchase any of my products since I have been trying to settle in. Ive been using PanteneProV Great Lengths. Ill admit, it does protect against the breakage and I have a little bit of Halka rinse left so I use that too. As far as the hair growth and pregnancy hormones, VERY true. My hair is just about at the center of my back (YIPEE)! I havent done and dubis lately. Id say at teh most I blow my hair straight with the roundbrush once a month ( i have oils and creams I apply before blowing to protect) and for the remaining 3 weeks i wash, allow to air dry and wear it in a bun.

It’s a good idea to switch up conditioners. I have heard that if you use the same product too frequently that your hair doesn’t respond well. I’m not sure that I’d apply that theory to relaxers.

So, where do you find rosewater? I’m going to try to pick so up today!

It’s funny, Silicon Mix or LaBomba by themselves do absolutely nothing for my hair, but when I mix them together and put them on, they work really really well…makes my hair feel soft, but really really strong at the same time. I fear my hair getting used to Baba, so I’ll probably alternate them from week to week. I haven’t found a replacement for the CON yet. I’ve tried, but keep going back to the reformulated one. Even though it’s not as good as the original, it still gives me more slip than anything else I’ve found

I’m definitely going to keep practicing rollersetting and wrapping though, I’m already noticing the benefits of not flatironing in terms of less broken and stray hairs floating around

Oh yes, rosewater has a phenominal smell! Roses, but not heavy like great-grandma’s perfume, lol…very light, and you can’t smell the SAA’s at all. It gives an added boost of moisture, and it’s only a couple of bucks for an 8 ounce bottle…can’t beat a deal like that!

I am all over Baba de Caracol! Silicon Mix was not good for my hair, let it too difficult to comb, but Baba….oh, I love it!!
Yes amiga, I’m still searching for a Creme of Nature replacement. If you find something you like, share with us.

As for your hair, you keep practicing. You’ll see that it gets easier and better each time

Now, I have to say that you taught me something. I have been putting a cap full of silk amino acids in my spray bottle and spritzing my hair, but I’m not a huge fan of the smell. Does rosewater have a nice fragrance? If so, I’m on it!

And another huge thank you for your tips on wrapping right after rollersetting…worked like a charm. My hair didn’t get poker straight (didn’t really expect it to!), but it was very wearable, smooth, and shiny

Isn’t Baba de Caracol the best?! I don’t know how I missed it for so long. However, I had been trying so many different products over the years. This is DEFINITELY a keeper!

Have you tried CHI Silk Infusion yet? That’s another staple for me. It’s my favorite leave-in. I can use it on my hair wet, or dry. I find that silicone products are counter productive for me, but I have friends and family members who love them. Silicone Mix is one of the faves.

Can anyone recommend any other products?
