My Must Have Products!

Here is a list of my must have products that I use in my hair:

Shampoo: Giovanni Tea Tree Triple Treat. This clarifying shampoo really makes your hair feel clean and refreshed. I use this about every 2-3 weeks when I wash my hair.

Conditioner: Suave Tropical Coconut Conditioner; DevaCurl One Conditioner. I use these puppies to co-wash in between my shampooing. I usually co-wash 1-2 times a week mostly with the Suave because it's a cheapie. The DevaCurl is kind of pricey, so I try to conserve that one a little more.

Deep Conditioner: Aubrey Organic's GPB Conditioner; Neutrogena Triple Moisture Deep Recovery Hair Mask (alternate with GPB); and last but certainly not least, Henna! I use the GPB every other week because it is protein-base, which tends to dry out hair, if used too often. I alternate with the Neutrogena Hair Mask. I usually do my deep conditioning treatments every Sunday. Lastly, Henna is known for its wonderful conditioning properties, yielding hair that's shiny and thick. I've done Amla treatments in the past with great results, but I love Henna. I Henna usually once a month because it's such a long process, but it is worth every hour. I will definitely put up pics from my next treatment, due in another week. Keep an eye out!

Hair Moisturizer: Unrefined Coconut Oil. I use this as a moisturizing agent. I apply this to try dry hair because I feel it absorbs better. I usually co-wash, braid or twist my hair using DevaCurl Set It Free, or no product. I apply the Coconut Oil the next day when my hair is fully dry.

Stylers: DevaCurl Set It Free; clear Eco Styler Gel. I usually set my protective styles (braids or twists) with DevaCurl Set It Free. The Eco Styler is great when you want a more a sleek look and you need extra hold. The positive is that it has no alcohol so it does not make your hair crispy.
