Do you put the mango butter on wet hair? I just bought some and I'm not sure when to use it. The only time I used it was after I blow dried my hair. ------------- Type: 3c/4a Natural Current Length: 6" Goal: Healthy, tip of nose /neck/shoulder length hair. BC: 02/08/06 |

I use Mango Butter to wrap my hair after I wash (while it's wet) and I also use it as a daily moisturizer, it also doubles as a heat protectant. ------------- DiamondPrincess

I've used the EQP Mango Butter on dry hair, but found it to be just a tad heavy. The scent is luscious though!!! I'm currently using Mango/Shea Butter Hair Milk at least every other day to moisturize. Any moisturizers that don't contain mineral oil or petroleum are safe for everyday use. ------------- "Courage is grace under pressure." - Ernest Hemingway |

i currently have tallow, cocoa butter-deodorized, and sal butter in my stock for moisturizing. Tallow works great for me i use it over nite and mango butter (not to be confused w/ elasta qp) works great as well. I will be using the cocoa butter next- so i'll keep you posted. ------------- Me and you, your cousin and your momma too rollin on da strip on bow's |

Diamond P. - I think that I may try it sometime in the future...Right now I am a recovering hair product junkie and I should not really be buying anything else...but I'll probably eventually cave in. I'll keep you posted... ------------- -Happy Hair Days Kim |
