DevaCare One Condition VS DevaCurl One Condition
For the past few months I have been using DevaCare One Condition as a leave in. I LOVE it. It is thick in consistency with a light citrusy smell. My hair DRINKS conditioner and product so I need something somewhat heavy. Although DevaCare One Condition is a heavy conditioner, it doesn't weigh my hair down. My hair dries to be super soft and moisturized and fluffy. This is always a plus.
Well I was about out of my DevaCare One Condition so I headed to Ulta to pick up another bottle. As I was reaching for the product, I noticed DevaCurl One Condition. You would think I would take a second to read the labels and determined what the difference was....but I didn't. In my mind...I wear my hair kinky 80% of the time...so why NOT try DevaCurl One Condition. So...I picked it up...and decided to go ahead and try it out on my puff.
My first experience with DevaCurl One Condition was not positive. I was not please at ALL. It's consistency was similar to DevaCare One Condition as it was also creamy...and the smell was a little different...more perfumy(which I liked). However, though it was creamy, it did not seem to coat my hair like the DevaCare product did. I was about to get discouraged and give it up...and I decided to try it again. This time I used MORE product and I LOVE it. I have decided since to stop using my beloved Kinky Curly and use conditioner only.
The Verdict
Overall I think they are BOTH great products. As far as consistency of the conditioner, they are tied. They are both rich and creamy. A DREAM for porous hair like mine. In regards to smell, I am going to go with DevaCurl One Condition, it smells like I am wearing a fragrance...and I am not. LOL I even got complimented in the elevator on my fragrance. LOL! As far as softness, I am slightly partial to DevaCurl One Condition. My hair and my curls are thriving. So...next time I am in Ulta...I will be reaching for DevaCurl One Condition. However, if it isn't available, it will not be the end of the world if I have to take it's back up instead, DevaCare One Condition.

Jessicurl WDT
Greetings all!
I have been over here loving on my hair. Until today, my hair has been in some form of a puff. Well today it is super cold outside...so I decided to pamper my hair a bit, and put it in a baggied bun. So...I got my Jessicurl Weekly Deep Treatment yesterday and I coated my hair with that...and Elucence MB conditioner...and put it in a baggied bun. I sealed my ends with Shea Butter. I am going to baby my hair for maybe two more days or so...then I am going to Henna again this weekend.
I ordered 4 boxes of the Jamila brand Henna. I am hoping that it comes by Friday...but if it doesn't I will just use the Reshma brand again. I am trying to determine if I am going to leave it in overnight again....or let it sit overnight and leave it on for a few hours. I am leaning more towards leaving it on overnight. People in my life are SO tired of hearing about henna...so I guess I will hush and put it here in my little blog.
In other news, I have pressed pause on my application of OCT. Being that it is high in protein, I think it is best that I lay off of it for a bit because I am doing so many Henna treatments...once I go to once a month henna treatments...maybe I will incorporate it back into my regi.
As far as supplements...I am doing good...I am taking my MSM powder, Biotin and B complex with extra Vit C. So...I am going to hold out on the straightening until March...or atleast the very last week of Feb...but we shall see.
Can I do it? Can I hold out another month being that I have not straightened in a month...and more importantly have I gotten any growth and retained any length. One the left side of my head...when I stretch a peice from the back...it is at my arm pit...what will it look like when it is actually straightened...I am SO curious to see.
Well...until tomorrow...or later on today...
OH and next up...Olive Oil facial washes...and weekly work outs with weight training...I MUST get fineR for this summer. LOL
Toot Toot! :-)
