Cantu conditioning detangler part 2

I just used this on my daughter tonight and it worked well. I took her hair down from braided pig tails and proceeded to detangle in sections. Her hair required alot of detangler! My fingers got super tired after about 10 pumps. It had decent slip for her hair, but I'm not sure how well it would have worked if I detangled her hair had it not been styled prior. When I used brand new on my son I only used about 10% of the bottle. Tonight on my daughter I used 80%! So this detangler required much more than the curls brand we usually use. If I use again on her I'll have to switch to a trigger style spray bottle instead of how it comes. I'd give it 4 stars only cuz my hand got tired and how much we had to use.

Review: Cantu conditioning detangler for kids

Just tried this on my son's dry hair and it works great! Not too strong of smell but light and fresh. I detangled in sections then applied a hair milk after. It had enough slip for his hair, enough for him to not fight me lol he sat still the whole time watching his movie! It's about  $3 if I remember correctly, so not bad at all. A little certainly went a long way for him so that's always a plus too! The ultimate test will be on my daughter's hair, but I don't do much detangling these days on her hair outside from washing it. I have no complaints about this product, nice n cheap and works well, highly recommend!

Simple band style

Just a last minute style I decided to do before wash day. I took her twists out since they were super messy, applied product and did some banding with a braid at the end. She loves it! (Excuse the messy part, I didn't use a comb, just took the twists out and made it as even as I could)

Review: Camille Rose shampoo and conditioner

I'll start with the sweet ginger cleansing rinse first. I used this on the whole household! It has a sweet smell to it, not my favorite, but not bad. This product felt so silky on my kids hair and my own! It distributed easily and had nice lather. All our hair felt so clean after using! Zero complaints!...next is the Moroccan pear conditioning custard. I first used on my son's hair. I distributed thru his hair evenly and let sit for about 5 minutes before detangling. I swear it ate thru his tangled mess! He always cries and fights me when I detangle his hair, but not this time! I love this on him! For my daughter it's a different story tho. It had about zero slip on my daughter's hair so I had to use our fave herbal essence hello hydration conditioner. After I detangled with that conditioner I then put the camille rose conditioner in her hair and let it sit about 5 minutes. Her hair was so soft after rinsing! The smell was fine, nothing special, a bit fruity but fresh. My only complaints would be the slip, the difficulty of squeezing the bottle, and the cost for how quickly we go thru conditioner. I will most likely buy the shampoo/cleansing rinse again, but probably not the conditioner. Although I would recommend it for shorter hair with loser and silkier curls (as my son has). 5 stars for the shampoo and 3 for the conditioner!

Review: Camille Rose almond jai twisting butter

I have also used this product on both my kids hair and had good results with each. For my son I used after his bath with some argan oil and found it a bit too heavy for his hair. It moisturized and defined his curls really good but seemed a bit greasy to me. For my daughter I used for her twists and it worked well. Kept her hair moisturized and soft. Her hair does better with hair milks and lotions, but this product wasn't bad. It has a good cake frosting scent that I love! I think it's a good product but I'm undecided about purchasing again. A little goes a long way so I have some time for it to change my mind a bit lol. No complaints just not one of my faves at the moment.

Review: Camille Rose fresh curl

Pretty sure I just found my new gold in a bottle product! This stuff is amazing on both my kids hair! I used after shampooing and conditioning with camille rose products. For my son I ran it thru his hair and let air dry. His curls were so tight and slightly weighed down. Usually his hair turns into a fro once dried, but with this his curls were defined and springy all day! Even after rolling around and some time in the carseat. For my daughter I sectioned her hair for twists using this product. It slid thru her hair so nice and easy! Seemed to soften her hair as soon as it absorbed! Literally the best purchase I've made in a while! It has a fresh scent and slightly like frosting. A little goes a long way and I love the natural ingredients. I will definitely be keeping this product on deck for a while! 5 stars for sure, give it a try!
