**THIS IS NOT A FULL REVIEW**Hello all you lovely people. If you didn't already know, I am a "natural hair junkie". What I mean is that I am completely obsessed with Afro Kinky hair in its "natural state". I obsessively read product reviews and watch YouTube videos trying to find new ideas on how to style and take of my natural hair. So, I've decided to kind of bring this obsession to my personal blog. :)
For this particular post I will be doing a mini product review of the products from the Shea Moisture Product line. Yes, I have decided to jump on the Shea Moisture bandwagon, lol. I purchased them from my local Walgreens at a cost of $9.99 each (various sizes, details below.)
The products I will be reviewing are the following
Organic Raw Shea Butter Moisture Retention Shampoo 12 fl oz/355 mL for $9.99
Organic Raw Shea Butter Restorative Conditioner 12 fl oz/355 mL $9.99 Organic Coconut & Hibiscus Curl Enhancing Smoothie 12 oz/340g $9.99 Organic Coconut & Hibiscus Hold & Shine Moisture Mist 8 fl oz/237 mL $9.99 About the products
Apparently they are all Paraben, Phthalate, Paraffin, Gluten Propylene Glycol, Mineral Oil, Synthetic Fragrance, PABA, Synthetic Color, DEA, and Animal free. Whoa! That was a mouth full. I honestly can not tell you what all that is supposed to mean except that it's extra organic. I personally don't care whether a product is organic or inorganic, but for those of you who care that was for you. Collectively they include ingredients such as Sea Kelp, Argan Oil,Shea Butter, Coconut Oil, Silk Protein and Neem Oil.
Pre-View Review
Before I begin, let me say that I've only been able to use these products a few times, but so for, so good. The Moisture Retention Shampoo does NOT lather, which I'm not too fond about. The Restorative Conditioner is nothing special. It made my hair feel clean. I can't say that I liked the feeling. It's a far cry from my trusty Biotera Revitalizing Conditioner I will say this though, after washing and conditioning, my hair looked really shiny and healthy. As for the Curl Enhancing Smoothie, it enhances not ONE curl, BUT it makes my hair feel very soft to the touch. It only lasted for half a day though :/. I used it on a chunky twits out. The Moisture Mist definitely has a hold factor because its kind of sticky. I think I will use it for my mini-twists, this month and see if it really does keep up the twists.
Over all I am satisfied with my purchases. I will continue to uses these products for at least one month. That way, I can give a better review. I can't' wait! Expect a full review a month from today.
Overall Rating: I give it a 7.5/10
Toodles!
