Since day one of becoming au naturale I’ve always used a “cheapie” conditioner (think V05, Suave) for detangling purposes. These conditioners provided just enough slip to aid in working out knots and tangles. About a month ago, I stood in the shower soaked with my eyes tightly shut blindly searching for my detangling conditioner but instead of V05, I unknowingly grabbed my Carol’s Daughter Lisa’s Hair Elixer. Before I’d noticed a difference, I’d squirted the oily elixer into my cupped hand. Now I know you’ve priced quality hair products and you know “just tossing it down the drain” was not an option. I decided to give it a try…if I failed I could always put the V05 on top of the oil and keep it moving.
I smoothed the product on my hair and noticed a huge difference. Detangling that day was a breeze but it could have been a fluke. I HAD to try this again. My hair felt great after the wash, a softness that seemed to last until next wash day. My hair was just…well…different.
The only thing I didn’t really like was the smell. The essential oils used in Carol’s Daughter make for a medicine smell and I’m more of a fruity smelling kinda lady. After I run out of the Hair Elixer I’m going to experiment with my own herbal infused oils.
This has become apart of my weekly regimen and I encourage you all to give it a try and let me know how it works for you.
