Please see this post after reading this product review. I’ve been using the Ultra Black Hair Lotion Creme Moisturizer product for about a month and a half and so far so good. I wish I would’ve ordered the larger bottle because I wasn’t planning on using it as much as I’ve been using it. I [...]

So I tried the Palmers Coconut Oil Forumula (with vitamin E) Replenishing Hair Milk because it was something new on the shelves at Walmart, but this product like many others with great potential contains protein(keratin & amino acids) which can be quite drying to the hair. It also lacks humercants which are ingredients that are really needed in African [...]

I used this product for about 3 months  and I have some complaining to do. I’ve even removed it from my recommendations based on what has happened as a result of using it. It moisturized my hair nicely, but after using it for a while it seemed to have some negative effects on my hair. [...]

I sampled this product the last time I ordered some items from Curls.biz and I fell in love with it. I then purchased an 8oz size jar because this product moisturizes and detangles my hair like no other moisturizer. I honestly prefer this moisturizer over the Quenched Curls Moisturizer by CURLS because it is a [...]

I recently ran out of my beloved Curls Milkshake and I need to moisturize my natural hair. I tried using the remaining bit of Milkshake and a few mists of water to help moisturize my hair, but as soon as my hair dried. It was dry, meaning hard and dry, even thirsty. Later that day [...]

I use the CURLS Curly Q’s Milkshake on my 1 year-old sons 4b hair as well as my own, and I highly recommend it. It detangles, moisturizes, and imparts a nice sheen.

The Cantu Shea Butter Leave In Conditioning Repair Cream is a wonderful moisturizing conditioning treatment for all hair types. It doesn’t contain mineral oil nor petroleum, which is an added plus!
