Product Review : Dove Advanced Series Oxygen Moisture Leave-in

Image
When people say "It's what they do that counts" They were talking about this product. I run out of my go-to moisturizer, the Neutrogena Triple Moisture Leave-in Cream two weeks ago. I really wanted to continue using it because it's relatively cheap at about $8. My hair, however, has not been impressed with it this weave cycle. I was starting to use more and more product and my newly texlaxed hair just wasn't having it. So I went shopping at my local CVS for a good alternative. I bought the Dove Oxygen Moisture Leave-in after careful deliberation of the small sample at CVS. Ok, I lied. I chose it because the packaging was pretty and slick and it had castor oil as the second ingredient...Peg-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil. Little did I know that Whatsit Castor Oil isn't really castor oil but a derivative of castor oil and it's primary job? Is to boost foam production. So basically it makes the product come out all nice and frothy. Ingredient Fail ...

My second weave - aka lesson not learned

Hmm how do I put this. The itching!!   I think I must like punishment. Why else would I buy (again) a weave that has issues? Then again maybe all weave has issues... just like hair has issues. So then my job is to find the best weave with the least issues...
