Beyond the Zone 911 Hair Mender-supposed to be a knock-off of TIGI`s Ego Boost at a much cheaper price. This is really good stuff! My hair looks much better when I put it in and you only need to use a little bit. It`s wonderful!! Highly recommended. Lyris piqued my interest in these products when she mentioned she liked their oil-free glosser. So I headed over there and checked them out. There are a lot of products there I really want to try!
CitreShine Straightening Balm-awesome stuff too! It has a nice fresh citrusy scent and it really helps to get the wave out. It`s a nice balm that doesn`t seem to be causing much build-up.
Biolage Color Care shampoo-I like this too! It smells FAB and it doesnt strip my hair or my highlights! My hair looks SO shiny!
Biolage Conditioning Balm-totally awesome too! doesn`t weigh my hair down too much and really makes it soft and silky.
Thermasilk Weightless Frizz Fighter-the jury`s still out on this one. I`ve used it with the citreshine and I guess its made my hair a bit less frizzier. Nice scent. I`m gonna try it again tomorrow.
Paul Mitchell Straight Works- My fave straightening balm. I like this one a little bit better than the citreshine because it gives my hair more hold. But it doesn`t smell as nice. Gives me nice smooth straight hair.
Redken All Soft Heavy Cream-I LOVE the smell!! And it makes my hair feel so nice and soft. I haven`t really tried it as a deep conditioner yet, but once I left it in for 3 minutes and my hair was detangled! Can`t wait to deep condition with this one.
Biolage Hydrating-a very nice moisturizing shampoo!
Biolage Detangling solution-much too light for me. Didn`t really detangle.
Biosilk Silk Therapy- I love the scent and it gives my hair some added smoothness and weight. I don`t like to use it too much, though..
Biosilk Shine On- A nice spray for when I flat-iron! It makes my hair extra shiny and smooth.
L`Oreal FreshVive 2-in-1- Love the scent, makes my hair nice and light and gives just the right moisturization.
Kenra Clarifying-A bit drying, but really cleans my hair of build-up.
Nexxus Humectress-Moisturizes my hair, but noticed at the end of the day my hair felt rather dirty.
Matrix.sleek.look-Hated every product in this line. Hated the smell, made my hair look incredibly dull and unstraight.
Well that`s it for now. Just wanted to share.

Hi Kristen....glad to hear you like Beyond the zone (my reasoning is, if I tell enough people about a product, they like it and keep buying it, perhaps the company won`t discontinue my favorite stuff! :) I looove the 911 stuff and its crazy cylindrical bottle. I wanted to try the hemp conditioner because a friend recommended it....but I opened the top in the store and out came a scent uncannily strong and just like starburst. (I had a bad experience with Starburst about six months ago...but that`s another story.) I was at Penny`s today and I almost bought Matrix sleek look conditioner...but now I`m glad I didn`t after reading your post :-) Something else you might like: Biotera reconstructor, also at Sally. It`s the Biolage conditioner knock-off...and it is wooonderful. I actually like it better, the conditioner is so thick and moisturizing. It goes on sale a lot and I`ve gotten an enormous bottle for six bucks.
