Big Chop: February 2011
A tip: This is something I learned from The Mop Top Maven blog: Before using any new product (s), I clarify. That way, I know exactly how a given product should perform.
BTW: Which product label? My hair has responded very well to the gold label products, but not so well to the orange/peach label products. Those contain coconut, which makes my hair hard, dry and crispy.

I can't find any info about this purification masque.
Check me out on Youtube, Tumblr, FB, and Twitter!

The masque is too thick and heavy to use alone. I actually mixed a little in my henna gloss last night and I'm also going to mix it with lighter conditioners. I'm on the fence if this is going to be a repurchase or not. $10 for a deep conditioner is the max I want to/can spend so I may buy it again just to use it as I have been doing...

These are my purchases! I went back tonight to buy some more before the sale was over. I decided to get the shampoo along with the purification masque to try out, seeing as how I have tried just about everything else from the Shea moisture line!
Lol. +2 I was thinking the same thing but tried to be nice

WOW! it IS rude, so maybe just keep your small minded thoughts to yourself next time.
It is obviously not an obligation to respond to any post. You offered nothing but snottiness. NOT NEEDED in any way shape or form. Do you have any idea how many different ingredients are in all these different products? I was maybe thinking that someone else had not gotten along good with these products also and had a USEFUL opinion, as many have here. Thanks ladies. I'm just trying to get over the fact that you wasted yoru time and so many others just to post some rude comment. You obviously had nothing to offer.

Hold on. Let me step in for a minute here. I thought the same thing that she did when I saw your post, but I knew that you would take it well, like you obviously did, so I attempted to be nice. But think about it...you came on here and asked people to compare the ingredients in Shea Moisture products to a list of products you love, and did not put down ANY of the ingredients. Even if people own these products, I'm pretty sure we didn't memorize the ingredients, so it is always IMPERATIVE to list these out, so people can look at the list and see if we can find any comparisons. No one should be Googling the ingredients or going into their bathroom checking out their labels FOR YOU. Seriously, wheredeydothatat?
Furthermore, just because people don't like the products doesn't mean that they dislike it for the same reason as you. You told us NOTHING about the properties of your hair in your OP, so how are we supposed to make any kind of educated guess about why you didn't like something? Shouldn't you know your hair better than we do?
Yes, I understand that keeny could have been "nicer" in her response, but this is getting ridiculous. People on this site come in here and wail for help and expect people to figure stuff out for them. Come on son, be more autonomous, or at least give us something to work with. You should have at the VERY LEAST listed out the ingredients to all the products in question and described your hair (porosity, texture, etc).
Also, calling her snotty and small minded is taking it a little far...you wouldn't like it if I called you self entitled and lazy now would you? Think about that.

Yeah, definately let me know. I have tried many other products. The only other one that did not work for me was the CJ HBHB. That did nothing for my hair. But i guess the good thing is that it did nothing BAD for my hair. This SM made my hiar feel bad. So I was a little confused by that. I just got my CJ CCCC and I tried it and I love it . It is like the ultimate curl popper for me.lol That and Ohm sweet hair pudding are really good for me. Other puddings and such moisturize really well for me.
anyways, let us know how it does for your hair.

To be honest with you I was not expecting anyone to do google searches and do tons of research to answer my question. Just a simple,,, "yeah that doesn't work for me either, try this, or try that. type of thing was what I was looking for. In my mind I wouldn't have truly compared ingredients in all these products beause so many products have smilar products but they products still differ according to how much or how they formulate. I am not a mixologist so unless a specific ingredient stuck out that was not in any others I would not really know where to go with all of that.
Anyhow, I do appreciate the input that was given. I think I will try layering it will other oils or something I will figure something out, or it will just have to be lonely in the back of the closet.lol
