Miss Jessie's Curly Pudding (CP)
Curls Products
Twists and Twists-Outs
Wash and Go/Shake and Go

And anything else I come across.

UPDATE: Since the dicontinuation (is that a word?) of Aveda Elixir, I use Infusium and PM The Conditioner under Eco. The use of a leave-in conditioner is A MUST!!! Otherwise, there is waaayyyy too much protein, and too much protein without proper balance is a big No-No.

----------------------------------

Okay, I get a lot of questions about my use of gel, so I thought I'd break out another folder to discuss.

My hair LOVES ecostyler gel. The protein in it is a very good thing for MY hair.

There are a couple of things I had to master though before I began this true love affair. The first time I used it, I HATED IT! I had super hard, crunchy, stiff hair...NOT what I was looking for...dang near like a brick. But I spoke to a lot of people with similar textures and they asked if I used it with a leave-in, I said no. When I first used it, I would apply it to freshly washed, detangled, slightly dripping hair. Result = the brick I previously discussed.

So, I decided to revisit, and added leave-in to the routine.

LOVE THE RESULTS! I use either Infusium 23 or (more recently Aveda Elixir) underneath. Right now, I am LOVING the results attained from using te Elixir underneath. Nice, pretty soft to the touch hair. I got 5-day good hair out of this combo (these are the pics I am posting here).

Every morning, I pretty much just fluffed and went. Not misting, not rinsing, no water added. The only additions were DevaCurl Set It Free on day 3 (sprayed into my hand, then rubbed all over) and SSF on Day 5 to give it a little pop and shine. This is going to be my routine of the moment (we'll see how long THIS lasts!).

I like it because I am not spending an extra 15 - 30 minutes doing my hair. 30 secs max!
