Today I had a OMG Hair Moment...

Okay...soooooo this morning my hair was feeling dry to the touch. I mean, I had just washed and deep conditioned it on Friday night. And I had used my Qhemet products...although I didn't use my regular combo but still:/ So I was a bit annoyed this morning. Although I still had a good hair day today as well...b/c I got a compliment. But still I wasn't happy with my hair. So while I was in Walmart doing my weekly routine shopping, I picked up 2 new conditioners that I had heard about before. Something within me said, Okay Sharina...what da heck just get them. So I did...Garnier Fructis Fortifying Creme Conditioner-Triple Nutrition & Aussie 3 minute miracle. I had a feeling I would like Garnier Fructis conditioner b/c 1) I'm a conditioner freak and 2) I could tell it was very creamy just by testing it in Walmart.  Also, the ingredients weren't bad at all...not all natural but not bad. What shocked me is that I actually bought this Aussie deep conditioner which has the #1 no no ingredient according to my Curly Girl rule book and that ingredient is Dimethicone. Yes, I said it. This is the worst out of all possible silicone because it is not water soluble and I can only completely get it out of my hair by washing my hair with a sulfate shampoo. So as I was reading the ingredients on the back of the bottle in the store, I also thought about how I was aggravated with my hair and I also thought about the review I had saw about it on YouTube. So again, I said what the heck. I put it in my buggy and kept it moving. Okay, let me now just get to the point of this...Garnier Fructis conditioner was really really nice. And I will continue to use it. It has Olive, Avocado and Shea oil in it so I had a feeling I would like it. But the kicker and the main reason why I'm writing this blog is because of Aussie 3 minute miracle. I only left it in my hair for 3 minutes, then rinsed with warm water and then rinsed with cold water just like it said to do on the bottle and OMG!!!! My hair was sooooooo manageable after I rinsed this deep conditioner out! I felt like I could have a great curly fro day without adding any additional product to my hair other than just spritzing it with my spray bottle mix...That is huge. Even when my hair was sectioned off waiting for me to twist it and it was starting to dry, it was still manageable without having to add additional product and again I say...That is Huge! So my final point of this blog is...DO YOU...Do what makes your hair happy! I don't care if it does have a bad ingredient in it that others say to not go near it. If it makes your hair react in a OMG way, then DO YOU. This makes me also want to try out Aussie Moist conditioner. Needless to say, Aussie 3 Minute Miracle has now been added to my Regimen and it only costed $2.84 from Walmart. I don't know if it was using Garnier Fructis 1st and rinsing that out and then adding Aussie 3 Minute Miracle...but what ever it was, I will continue to do it! My hair is happy now which also makes me Happy:)

SN: I twisted my wet hair with the usual Qhemet products-Moringa Tree Conditioning Ghee as my Leave in. Amla&Olive Heavy Cream, Honey Balm, Aethiopika Twist Butter combo. And just a tab bit of Kinky Curly Curling Custard on top for shine and hold. And now my hair is happily in a twisted bun:)
