When I returned to my natural hair over a year and more ago, one of the first set of products I tried was from the very popular product line Shea Moisture. One of the reasons that I decided to try this specific product line first, was because it is made from natural and organic ingredient and it is very affordable. There are lots and lots of reviews on this line that can be found on YouTube and blogs. After watching a number of reviews I decided on which products I would like to try out. Because there are a number of reviews and product demonstrations, I have opted to do my review in the form below just to share my views and experience of the Shea Moisture products that I used.

Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus

Texture – It is thick.

Fragrance – Smell is good, I like the smell, the coconut scent is present.

Suds – Yes it does suds, it foams up well.

Ratings – 10

Will I buy again – Yes I will, it’s become somewhat one of my staples.

How I used it – I wet my hair and apply it to my sectioned hair, massaging my scalp and rubbing it thru my hair.

It cleanse very well, it does not strip your hair, but leaves your hair feeling clean.

Shea Moisture Yucca & Baobab

sheaaaAnti-Breakage Masque

Texture – It is very thick and creamy.

Fragrance – Great smell, it contains some of the same ingredients as the conditioner so it basically smells the same.

Slip – Slip is good, can use to detangle.

Ratings – 10

Will I buy again – Yes I will, it’s one of my staples, plus with those ingredients such as biotin, yup, I will keep getting it.

How I used it – After I shampoo my hair, I apply a generous amount to my sectioned hair, then I sit under a steamer for 30 mins.

This masque helps in putting back moisture in your hair, trust me when I say it does, I wear braided protective styles a lot, and on occasions where I didn’t give my hair the moisture that was needed, when I take out the braids my hair is dull and just not feeling normal because it is not as moisturized as it can be and girlssss after I deep condition with this,, talk about life,, soft moisture hair, and feeling back to normal.

How I used it – On days that I did a protein treatment after I shampooed, I will apply the conditioner then rinse it out.

Texture – It is a mist so it’s a water consistency that you spray on.

Fragrance – Smell is good, almost same smell as conditioner but I will say conditioner has a stronger scent.

Slip – I never detangled with it alone.

Ratings – 9

Will I buy again – Yes I will, it’s one of my staples.

How I used it- After I do my deep conditioner moisturizing treatment or a protein treatment and condition my hair , after I rinse these out , I path dry my hair just so that it isn’t dripping wet then I spray this on just before I apply my leave in.

I like this mist, I find that its gives me some added moisture along with the water that is there.

Will I buy again – Yes I will, I used this in a cocktail with water and oil sometimes when I have in braided extensions.

How I used it – On days that I did a protein treatment after I shampooed, I will apply the conditioner then rinse it out. (Same way I use the Shea Moisture Yucca & Baobab so basically I interchange them on wash day).

On days that I did a deep conditioner moisturizing treatment, I will rinse out the conditioning masque and then use it as a leave in conditioner. It is very moisturizing. (Same way I use the Shea Moisture Yucca & Baobab so basically I interchange them on wash day) .

I think the two conditioners- the baobab and raw shea butter does the same job for my hair, leaving it soft and moisturized

How I used it- After I apply my leave in and oil, I then apply this, I have used it both on wet and dry hair, and it does what it say. It leaves my hair soft and moisturized.

 

Overall I enjoyed the products, based on my research and understanding of how your hair should feel, look and act when using products, I can say that my hair has benefit from these products. I don’t have any negative comments about the products casue I had positives results.

So if you haven’t try out the Shea Moisture line and you are looking for affordable and natural product you can give the line a try.
