I just spray it in my hair when its dry and go ! I've got my hair in cornrow at the mo cos of work and and keeps for a few weeks before a re -do. I've not tried in on wet/ washed hair yet but i would steam/ treat my hair with normal conditioner as usual and spray with mist after or when hair is dry for that extra goodness . I have my hair in twists as well so i would spray it in and leave to dry naturally.
The mist acts as my hair tonic in between washes -its like the braid/ tonics on the market but without all the heavyness and it seems to work nicely on black hair cos my friend tried it too and loved it!
I reckon it would work nicely if you spray in hair before twisting leave to dry naturally than after a couple of days take yor twists out and go!! A nice treat for those special occasions or party nites when you feel like doing the 'all hair out thing!!! xx

My hair is in twists...but I washed them after working out. I did not put conditioner on them because I wanted to get the effect of the Leave-in without other products. This morning to my surprise my hair was even softer.
Sharon did you do yours on wet hair or dry hair. I believe that since I put it on wet hair that it shrunk up even more. Because I have rinsed my hair more than once this week and it didn't shrink up as much as it did with this leave in. It doesn't matter...I'll try it soon when I wear my hair out and see how that goes. This is actually one product rave that worked for me.

I've noticed that since using the Dove mist my hair has stretched out nicely adding that length. Coz my hair is real thick and natural it can get a bit tight. For me it also gives my hair that just right amount of shine ( dont like that over shiny gooopy look !! :) xx

I had been trying to avoid this thread...I just couldn't cause it kept popping to the top. So today, 2 hours ago I went and purchased this product. I'm sold on the fragrance...I won't try it out until tomorrow after my workout.

Hi CnK, Im sure you will like it, if you do not want yr hair too soft don't spray too much as alittle goes a long way in my hair. i do not saturate it too much as my hair is really thick and i like thickness as opposed to softness. Thanx for the advice about the the hair types i think i may be a 4b but which check this out.
Hey P Im glad you like this baby blue stuff ! Yes it's a gr8 detangler too
Thanx so much for the hair type chart

Hi C im ab sure the 'miricle mist founder' Taggi and others with vouch for this one. Trust me it will work for you and your hair will look and feel real nice. Works wonders as well when taking out cornrow makes the job 10x easier.
you'll see how lovely your hair is when it dries in your hair naturally.
We have a store in London called Superdrug and today they had the Dove mist buy one get one free ( BOGOF) so I got 4 to put down This is my hair tonic from now on!!!!
you go girl with your obsessed hair nothing wrong with caring about it ! Im so protective over my hair too . Let me know if its a miricle for you. Nuff props to Taggi for that . I got a good feeling about this one . LOL
PS. I dont understand the hair type 3b 4b thing so could some explain this to me
Here is the hair type chart that most people use. Hopefully it will help you out.
Hi Sharon,, wow i am looking foward to using " the
mist" this weekend,, i hope it wont make my hair too
soft though,, hmm how do i explain the hair types
thing,, well starting with 1a ,, that would be very
straight hair,, and so on till 4b which is the
kinkiest hair.... u can go on google or yahoo and use
the search phrase hair type 4a and it will find a u few
websites containing the hair typing systems,, ,, there
are some links here on that too... :-)

Had to get in on this one, My Locks are 2yrs. old now, & thanks to all your insight, and wisdom, it's past my shoulders, already!!!
The dove mist is light, but gives a nice moisterizing conditioned feel, even after it is dry. I use this now A.M, & P.M. along w/my MGT &WGO. Thanks, Sondra.

Hey P. Thanks for the advice bout the Shampoo and conditioner I'll try both.
Yeah T the baby blue Dove is newest range here in the uk.
Dove seem to have got it right with their products and its really good that they have actually made their products for our skin and hair. Alot of other companies don't do this which can make us think their products are not for our skin or hair type. Dove reflect black women on their adverts on tv in the uk and on their webpage. Do they do the same in the states too?
I was also told that in the States you sell a much larger range of Dove products than in the Uk but we do have a good range too.

I bought the mist and plan on using it in a few days.
@Sharon....Dove shampoo and condish is good stuff. The conditioner is my staple. I use the Intense Moisture one but the baby blue one looks good too. I also use the one in the dark blue bottle, I forgot what it's called.

WoW Taggi , yes indeed you have found a miracle mist. I puchased the Dove Sheer Moisture Mist today and tried it as soon as i
I got home . My Hair is shiny and soft to the touch with a bouce. As a test I took out the ends of my corrow with so much ease. I will be using this from now on . And you don't need to use loads. My hair is natural and thick . I recommend this one for all you naturals too -short or long style, you'll love the results.
Please do feedback if anyone else has tried this. I was wondering about the Shamppo and conditioner from this range as well. Baby Blue range Lol Sharon71 X
