YAY! I finally got my ISH!
I am a fan of these products and I have to say the only real girp I have about them is that it takes 2 weeks to arrive.
Here is what I bought, and this is how I feel about the purchase.
Shine and Define: I love the smell, and the consistency. I feel like I have to use it while my hair is sopping welt to really make a difference, but since I've been natural and wearing my hair out, I find that most products require this.
The first time I used the product it became flaky and I didn't like the outcome of my twist out so much. However, I realized that this product in my case, should not be used for that. When I braid my hair it works great and when I slick it back it works wonderfully. In my opinion that is what this product works best for.
Burnt Sugar Pomade: Again, I liked this. I didn't love the smell as much as The Shine and Define, but I loved it non the less.
I used this for braids and I LOVE IT! It works really quite well, and I have to say since my journey began in October 2008, I've become a hair product whore.LOL
My hair was shiny, less tangled and smelled good. Gets my 2 thumbs up!
Honey-Hemp Conditioner- I liked this as a CO-Wash conditioner, but not as a really substantial conditioner. It did make my hair feel softer, but I like something that would be thicker. Now, I will give Oyin the benefit of the doubt because their products are handmade and I know how variables can be.
I give them 4 stars overall. My gripes are small and I am not a nit picker, nothing is perfect. However, I will be purchasing again and again.
I am now a repeat customer. LOL
Next on my Oyin Journey..... Juices and Berries :)
