My Hairstyle Today: Frizzy hairdo thanks to a little Nioxin Bliss and Curly Pudding

Pantene Relaxed and Natural

I'm back with another favorite hair product of mine. My last product pick – Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding – was less than well received. I read a lot of feedback from relaxed women who were less than concerned about the product geared towards naturals but I had to play fair, right? Hopefully, I'll have better luck this time. My latest love affair is with a product for both relaxed and natural heads – though relaxed ladies may find it works better for them.

I first came across this product when I attended 'hairpreneur' Glynn Jackson's Golden Scissor Awards held in Washington DC a couple of years ago. If you haven't been to a hair show just once in your life I strongly urge you to attend. This merger of fashion, hair and choreographed dance is quite amazing.

Back to the topic at hand.

I snagged this hot product as a freebie for attending the event and almost gave it away to a friend. I would have made a big mistake because ...

Relaxed & Natural Daily Oil Cream Moisturizer is now a staple in my closet. At the time I was ordering a product Pantene Relaxed and Naturalcalled Ultra Black Hair Conditioner from Cathy Howse. She has built herself an empire on good products and dispelling black hair myths (scroll down on this page and check out these photos, BV). I still patron Cathy's online store but when I don't have time to wait by the mailbox for my goods I get my hands on Daily Oil Cream Moisturizer. Both products have the same consistency and both are great for dry hair in desperate need of a Hair after product was appliedlittle moisture. In fact, when I applied the Pantene product on my dry ends recently I also realized it's a great sealer for my broken ends.

However, the same rules from Mizani's H20 apply here. Apply too much and you're left with heavy wet hair that will sizzle under your curling iron. I apply very little from root to end and use a magnetic roller to keep the curl in place. Then, I wrap my hair at night to lock in the moisture. The next day I have a nice, bouncy curl and my hair doesn't have that greasy feeling.

Where to Buy It

To redeem myself from the Surge fiasco I located this product online at Walgreens and the link works. It retails for $4.99. I have also seen it at CVS drugstores and Target and Wal-Marts with an 'ethnic aisle' as some call it (remind me to tackle that one in a future post).

Anyway, I would love to know who owns this product and get your take on the results. Please make use of the Comments section below.
