I am soooo new to this hair thing that I don't know anything anymore??! I have to admit b4 finding this & other forums, I'd put mineral oil, petroleum and all the other "bad things" on my hair. My hair wasn't terrible, but now that I've cut those out it's getting healthier and I don't want anything to hinder that. I know we all have different hair types and what works for some may not work for others, but I'm glad your hair likes it (it's beautiful) Not sure how mine would react to it though. Thanks for the suggestion - again you're so helpful & ready w/ advice

Thank you Browneyez.  I don't blame you about the bad products.  That's why I thought I'd let you know that mineral oil was in it cuz I know a lot of people don't use stuff with that or petroleum in it.  Me personally, I've been using stuff with those ingredients in it all my life and didn't even know they were bad until I started visiting hair forums so I figure i might as well keep using it since I haven't noticed any major problems.  I have tried to cut back on products with those ingred. in it though.  There are just so many good ones that I hate to give up and it seems that everything you pick up has the "bad" ingredients in it. 

I've tried Nasabb's Kelechi hair oil and it is good.  No bad ingred.  It has almond oil, castor oil, wheat germ oil, olive oil, lavender oil and peppermint oil. http://nasabb.com/catalog/kelechi_hair_oil-4oz_494761.htm

I am glad that you've found a regimen that your hair likes and I hope it continues to thrive!

Ladies, what products do you use after a fresh relaxer (or if you're natural- a fresh press/flat iron) to keep the hair moisturized but still maintain body and bounce without weighing the hair down? I relaxed this weekend and it turned out great. Maximum swing-ability and I want to keep it that way as long as possible since I rarely wear my hair out! Right now I'm just applying a little virgin coconut oil or hair glosser to the ends. What do you use?
