OVERRATED

It's been a minute since the last entry and I apologize for that. So to make up for it, I've got a gang of hatin, oops I mean critiquing to do.

So back in July when my hair was getting its arse kicked by the humidity I decided to embrace my kinkiness. In doing so I accepted product suggestions and Carols Daughter seemed to arise various times so I did my research and then made a business decision, which essentially became an expensive endeavor.
See, I'm cheap. I like to think its because I consider myself impoverished but the fact of the matter is I'm just bogus. So best believe when I found myself out the cash register droppin 21$ on 8oz of hair product, I was thinkin this product pull some Jesus miracles and fall just short of turnin water into wine.At least let it give my mane a little bit of luster. Man did Carol fail me miserably.

First I attempted to utilize the hair butter and after having mixed results from the Kizzy pommade, I put the CD on the shelf. But, thanks to my mentor Dr. Natural I got to complete my experiment with this heavily praised product when she lent me her Hair Milk and leave in conditioner. I just knew I was about to get my Jada Pinkett-Smith on!

After washing, buttering, and milking, the moment of the truth arrived. SADLY,
the only aesthetic difference was the noticeable fragrance of my hair, and that got old quickly.

Overall, ladies it could be my hair type but the Carol's Daughter I used thus far was less than mediocre.

Using the No-Lye Product Rating scale I'd like to give the Caroll's Daughter Hair Milk, Hair Butter, and Leave in Conditioner the following:

2 Wide Toof Combs = I'd only cop it if it was free. CD isn't the worse, but considering its price and praise, its far from the best.


Price: Hair Milk 4oz $12 Healthy Hair Butter 4oz 10.50 Kizzi Stay Put Pomade 9.50
Location: Sephora/ Online


If your opinions differ, let me know, cuz my soul and my 5/3rd card are still disappointed thanks to Carol's fam.

On to the next one!

Yesssssssssss... Yesssss.... YESSSSSSSSSSSS

Sooo I almost had an Herbal Essence moment last week compliments of CANTU.
As I opened my $3.42 Cantu Shampoo and proceeded to squeeze it in my hand, I was expecting it to be a disappointment like most promising Black hair care products. Thank God my pessimism did not manifest itself because I promise you that I was immediately hypnotized by the amount of lather conjured up by a half dollar worth of Shampoo! I spent a good 10 minutes amazed at the fact that my hair was felt soft while I, YES ME, tended to its own cleansing.
The icing on the cake was the conditioner, it left my hair manageable and with a subtle shine, something I can rarely attest to. Not only did I love the feeling, I wanted to give the world permission to smell my new found glory after basking in the lovely scent that was also a consequence of its use. Overall, if you cannot tell, I have officially endorsed Cantu Shampoo and Conditioner. It was the best $6.64 I have ever spent in Wallys World!

With this stated I will introduce the official No Lye Review Scale:
4 wide toof combs = I bought momma some too
3 Wide toof combs = Cop it when its on sale
2 Wide Combs = Only if its free
1 wide toof combs = I returned it and only to get store credit.

I officially give Cantu Shampoo and Rinse Out Conditioner 4 Pig Tails: I'd buy my momma some... If I had the money to!

Purchase Location: Super Walmart
Price: $3.42 each

Product Placement

Cantu? Carolls Daughter? Kalawentz? I've used all three products within the last 8 weeks to aid my hair in its continuous transition to its natural state. Nonetheless, I have yet to identify a product that seems to aid in all of my hairs needs. My next experiment will more than likely be with Miss Jessie's buttercreme however, we all could use guidance to save money and headache. Whether it be natural concoctions, store bought chemicals, or boutique found jewels, I'm all ears. So you already know the deal, hit me up... NoLyerz@gmail.com to shout out your favorite, or diss the overrated. This should be interesting!
