Lately I've been hearing about this DDTA but what exactly is it.?I'm thinking its like a shampoo and conditioner but I'm not sure. Maybe I live under a rock because I haven't heard of it. But I've been hearing wonderful things about it. Where do I buy it? And what does it do? |

DDTA= Daily defense tender apple ( shampoo and conditioner) DDWL= Daily defense water lily (shampoo and conditioner) Most of us here use the DDTA- i use both- these products were discontinued so you will only find them at the dollar store or big lots- hope this helps. The conditioner (DDTA & DDWL) is really nice and thick and leaves me hair soft and moisturized and being a dollar of less really helps. ------------- Me and you, your cousin and your momma too rollin on da strip on bow's |

I recently purchased a bottle of the DDTA conditioner from Dollar General store for .75cents. They had 1 bottle left of the DDWL ( I think I may go back to get it, too ------------- ~~  LIVE YOUR BEST LIFE!~~

DDTA is great for co washes. It reminds me of a really creamy shampoo almost, minus the suds. I have like 6 bottles stocked up because they discontinued it. It really is a great conditioner and it helped my dry scalp a lot. ------------- |

Well I made my mom take me to big lots today and i picked up 2 bottles of DDTA and DDWL. They were like $.87 or something like that, cheaper than sauve so I was like wow! I can't wait to try them out. And If I like them, we are gonna go back and make a big empty spot on the shelf. I'll let you guys know how I like it |

well i just washed my hair, and i must say i think I have found a new love. I loved the consistancy of DDTA and it has wonderful slip. I was running my hands through my hair and it felt so wonderful!
But I have to wait and see what my hair feels like when its dry.... |

I remember the commercials for DDTA way back when. With the woman
who had the brown hair walking down the street. If these products
are great, how come they have discontinued them? Maybe I will
have to pick up a bottle soon, heck, if it's great it'll be well worth
my dollar!

Well I've used DDTA a couple more times and I've noticed something. My hair feels a little waxy after it dries.... Has anyone else experinced this?
Maybe DDTA will be a product i use every once in a while. |

i'm sorry-sakura- i haven't experienced that- but i do add a little liquid aloe vera and glycerin to mine- maybe you need to doctor it up a little. ------------- Me and you, your cousin and your momma too rollin on da strip on bow's |

a little glycerin (you can get this at walmart's pharmacy for like a dollar or two) and a little aloe vera juice(also at walmart-like four dollars for 32 ounces). ------------- Me and you, your cousin and your momma too rollin on da strip on bow's |

Ah man! Now I wanna try this. Where is Big Lots. Anyone from NY know where i can find some DDTA and/or DDWL??? I'm sad. I feel like I'm missing out on something huge here and I'll never get to try it cuz it's discontinued!!! ------------- http://public.fotki.com/growhair/ pw: grow already |

Grow hair, you could check to see if big lots has a website, and if they do they more than likely have the store locator thing. so you can check to see if there is one in your area.... Other than that I dont know what else you could do besides maybe look in the phonebook or something... but that seems like it might be a pain and too much of a hassle. |
