Product Review: Shea Moisture "JBCO Strengthen, Growth, & Restore Leave-in Conditioner"

Hello Lovelies!

One word: AMAZING. 

JAMAICAN BLACK CASTOR OIL STRENGTHEN, GROW & RESTORE LEAVE-IN CONDITIONER


Whats in it? The main ingredients are: Organic Shea Butter, Jamaican Black Castor Oil and Peppermint, but the rest of the ingredients are listed in the Shea Moisture website.

I love, love, this product. (find it HERE) I'm going to review it by how each of my senses (except hearing and taste LOL) reacted to it.

Touch/Feel:

  • On hands: its thick, but not very thick.... like a yogurt, but not a pudding
  • On hair: I have 4B (kinky, small spiraled, can't do co-wash) hair, and this product makes my hair feel SO SOFT, its AMAZING for finger detangling. It took out every tangle as soon as I smoothed it through my hair
Smell
  • The blend of the peppermint and castor oil give it this light, almost desert like smell.... DEFINITELY aromatic (I love smelling hair products lol)
Look:
  • It's a creme color and its very smooth looking... again, I would call it a hair yogurt

How I used It:

After I co-washed (washed my hair with just conditioner, no shampoo) I dipped my fingertips in the conditioner and ran it through small sections of my hair from tip to root. I did not need to comb it! (also amazing)

I thought I was going to need another product to supplement my leave-in conditioner, but I think this was all I used! I do like adding oil to my hair and scalp for a little extra moisture. Also, it made quite an awesome twist out after I let it set over night. 

I am SO excited to sample the rest of this Jamaican Black Castor Oil line. I will say that this is the best leave-in conditioner specifically for natural hair that I have used thus far. 

Have you been trying Shea Moisture's new products? What do you think about them?


Have you seen all the new natural hair Barbies they are making?
