My Dominican hair product reviews

Salerm Wheat Germ Oil Hair Mask: This stuff is AMAZING! My hair hair was so shiny, soft, and full after doing this treatment, it smells like bad perfume and looks kind of gross but it really conditioned my hair.

I did not like the Capilo Honey and Milk conditioner at all it left my hair frizzy and hard. I think I will probably add shea butter, jojoba oil, and glycerin to make it moisturizing and only use it for CONwashes.

The Capilo Silk Protein Shampoo was a nice lathering shampoo it left my hair feeling clean without feeling dry. I will probably use this as a monthly clarifying shampoo.

Lacio, Lacio was a blessing to have; I put it in hair to wrap my hair and my hair was so silky afterwards, flat ironing was a breeze.   

i keep hearing about folks talking about these Domincan products, and now i'm curious.  two questions:

1.  where do you get them from?

2.  does it work on natural (4b/c) hair or is it better on a looser curl pattern?

Hi Adora I have 4a/b hair that is relaxed but I think it should still work well on natural hair because it is very moisturizing.

I used to use this when I was relaxed! My hair liked it!

I thought that I was the only one who had that experience with Dominican hair products.  They dried my hair out like a weed.

I will have to disagree my parents are African and I have thick 4a/b hair and my hair loves Salerm 21, Wheat germ oil mask, and Lacio Lacio. What I looked into before buying was the ingredients to tell if it in fact was going to be moisturizing based on what I know my hair likes. I think that everybody's hair is different and what I can use on my hair doesn't nessarily mean it will work for you.


I did a COnwash last night using Capillo m&h mixed with real honey, glycerin, and castor oil and got much better results my hair feels very soft after that.

Hair type... especially among black people is not something set in stone.  Black Africans, Black Americans, Black Dominicans, Blacks in England... all can have any type from 1a to 4b.  Most black people are mixed.  There are a lot of mixed race blacks in Africa as well.  Also, one doesn't have to be bi-racial or very "mixed" at all to have a more loosely curled hair type.   

I just don't agree with there being a "black" hair type.  Just as there is no such thing as a "white" hair type because their hair ranges from straight to very curly as well.  

Some products work for people and not for others because all of our hair is different and has different needs.  Even two 4b's can have totally different hair that responds to different things. 

It doesn't have anything to do with the fact that they are made for Domincans though.  They just don't agree with your hair.

My hair responds well to dominican products and both my  parents are black. I'm not mixed with anything. I'm a 3c/4a with dry hair.

Is it possible to list the ingredients in Salerms wheat germ conditioner? Thank you.

Thanks, but when someone has a chance, please let me know what's inside because I'm curious.
