I have found that most of the lower-priced brands make a lot of products that look similar but are completely different in how they make my hair feel. Suave and VO5 both make conditioners that make my hair feel marvelous and conditioners that I can't imagine anybody liking.

Right now I clean my hair with Suave Daily Clarifying conditioner, then use Suave Humectant, and follow it with Pantene. Clearly, your mileage may vary.


Just looking for a few good hair slaves - is that too much to ask?

Cebnn,
I think it depends on your hair texture. I know for myself, I can use the Vo5 conditioners but not the shampoos and I don't touch Suave. However, my sisters, who all have varying hair types, can use them without a problem. Some of them have below brastrap length hair.

CEBNN, I WAS TOLD THE SAME THING. Suave made my hair fall out twice b/c I used it when I got out of the swimming pool and it didn't moisterize or it stripped my hair of it's natural oils.

I've noticed a few people saying they use "white products" like Aussie, suave, and vo5. I have tried a few of these products, and found they leave my hair dry, it feels stripped. My hair dresser said the ph in them was too high for african american hair, and was striping it of any oils or moisture it had. does any one else experience this?

I stopped using elasta qp recovery oil moisturiser because it has minerla oil and after using it for soemtime, my hair started breaking. i now use Africa's best oil moisturiser with shea butter and tea tree oil. it light and doesnt weigh down my hair. My hair is also fine. Jojoba oil is also good. And Neutrogena Triple Moisture serum

EVOO
Sweet Almond Oil
Coconut Oil
Elasta QP Mango Butter **this maybe to heavy for your fine hair.

WHat are some good hair moisterizers that can be used after you condition and on a daily basis that's not too heavy on my ends. Note: I have fine hair. Someone mentioned hair butters, oil...please include the brand. Thanks in advance!
