Opening the box to all of these products felt like Christ- mas Day! We couldn’t wait to try out some of the natu- ral products and see how our hair reacted. Although we received multiple items, we didn’t test them all at once, like the Gel Shampoo and the Style Cream. We used the products that would work perfectly with a wash-n-go. We started off by shampooing the hair using the Thick and Full Bamboo and Co- conut Milk Moistur- izing Mint Shampoo, then the Shea-Coco De- tox Shampoo. The mint from the first shampoo gives your scalp a tin- gling sensation, which many consumers love, including us. Both lath- ered easily and smelled amazing. There are a mix of natural oils in the ingre- dients, but the brand also mixes fragrances to achieve its perfected smell. The smell lasted all day long. With each product, shampoo to finish, you will smell it throughout the day reminding you of fresh, clean hair. We also loved the spout on the Mint Shampoo. That whole collection has those spouts so even without weaves, the spout allows you to penetrate the scalp through the natural hair, making sure you’re not only cleansing the hair, but the scalp. We loved this feature. We also loved the cap on the mint shampoo. The whole collection uses tapered cone caps, which allow the product to penetrate to the scalp more effi- ciently. These are extremely useful when wearing a weave; you can cover each braided area easily making the washing experience more thorough. It’s also great for getting through thick, natural hair. After rinsing the shampoo, we gave our hair a deep con- 50 C O S M O B I Z M A G A Z I N E ditioning treatment with the Moisture Madness Masque and the Monoi Oil. We first applied a generous amount of the Monoi Oil and the whole packet of the masque. Both were amazing products. The Monoi Oil contained other oils like castor oil and can be used as a deep conditioner or just as a regular oil to massage on styled hair. We put a show- er cap on our head and let it sit for about 30 minutes. We washed our hair in the morning, so the shower cap allows your body heat to work with the product making it penetrate the hair. If you have more time, sit under the dryer while still wearing the shower cap. Next, we rinsed out the deep conditioner, applied the Leave-In Deep Con- ditioner, and followed up with the oils and serums. The Anti-Itch Serum and Condition- ing & Restoring Serum gave our hair the tin- gly, yet fresh pepper- mint feeling, which can be felt throughout the day. Also, any dry scalp was quickly moisturized. We also applied the Growth Oil, but it was too soon to tell how it worked. Lastly, we finished with the Bamboo and Biotin Edge Grow to protect our edges in a ponytail and added the Curly Hair Souffle to pop our curls. The hair souffle smelled amazing and even with little leave-in condi- tioner and little souffle, it intensified our curl pattern. We would definitely like to see how this souffle holds up applying to our whole head. After reviewing all of the products, we definitely rec- ommend it to our readers. The scent of each product were unique and amazing. The oils were our favorite part of the process and we can’t wait to see how our hair improves after a month of using the products. With that said, stay tuned. We want to give you all a further look into these collections.. Stay tuned!
