Shea Moisture Red Palm Oil and Cocoa Butter Collection: Review

There are four things in the Shea Moisture Red Palm Oil and Cocoa Butter Collection: the Detangling Shampoo, Leave-in or Rinse-Out Conditioner, Curl Stretch Pudding, and Styling Gelee.

Shea Moisture Curl Stretch Pudding: Does it Really Help with Shrinkage?

The curl stretch pudding from Shea Moisture’s Red Palm Oil and Cocoa Butter Collection is my staple product for braids and twists. My best braid outs and twist-outs feature the Curl Stretch Pudding.

A Review of Eden Body Works Curl Defining Cream on 4a/4b Hair

Eden Body Works Curl Defining Cream is amazing! It works wonders on my 4a/4b hair. Lately, I’ve been looking for a curl definer that’s not going to break the bank and it’ll be something I can use on my hair without it being wet. I’m not much of a wash-n-go person because I don’t like ...

Mixed Thoughts on Miss Jessies Curly Pudding

I used to be in love with Miss Jessie’s Curly Pudding. Recently, I’ve been using more lightweight less greasy products as I’ve realized what works better for my hair to ensure its healthiness.

Taliah Waajid Curly Curl Cream…Yay or Nay?

So, I never actually bought this product; my older brother gave me his spare container when he came down to visit. I really wanted to like this product, being a fan of Taliah Waajid in general, but I didn’t. Initial Thoughts: I opened the jar and the cream was very THICK. The jar said I ...
