SM Coconut Hibiscus vs. Yucca Baobab

Hey ladies! I bought SM Coconut Hibiscus Milk and Smoothie recently and was floored with how moisturized my hair was. However, I noticed that some of you have moved on to the Yucca Baobab range and I'm curious as to what difference you notice when you style with Yucca Baobab vs. Coconut Hibiscus.

My guess is that Yucca Baobab has more protein? But the Coconut Hibiscus does have silk protein in it, so... Demystify this please! :mrgreen:

I just ordered the SM Yucca Baobab Conditioner, Milk and Mist (as well as the SM Purification Masque.) I'll report on what I find when I get a chance to try them...

    The yucca and baobab is for thin hair. Based in that, I would say it has more protein than the coconut & hibiscus line.

    texture - medium/fine, porosity - low/normal, elasticity - normal
    co-wash - NaturelleGrow Coconut Water or Marshmallow Root, Slippery Elm Bark & Blue Malva Cleansing Conditioners
    LI - KCKT mixed w/ SM C & H Curl & Style Milk
    DC - NG Mango & Coconut H2O or Chamomile/Brdck Root
    Gel - SM souffle (winter), KCCC (summer) or CR Naturals Aloe Whipped Butter Gel (year round)
    Sealers - Virgin Coconut Oil, Avocado butter, Aloe butter
    Ayurvedic treatments - Jamila Henna, Sukesh, Aloe Vera Powder, Hibiscus Powder

    The SM Yucca and Baobab conditioner is the BIZNESS!! Great nourishment for your hair!!

    I've used the SM Deep Treatment Masque and it did absolutely nothing but sit on my hair. I have 4a/3c hair with thin to medium density.

    I love the coconut hibiscus curl enhancing smoothie that's my favorite thing from that line it's heavier than the yucca baobab products. I do prefer the yucca baobab conditioner though because the slip is awesome I love the way my curls start to pop time I smooth it in. I also use the yucca baobab growth milk when I do my twistouts because it's not heavy and my hair dries quicker. A lot of people seem to not like the smell of the yucca line, but it doesn't bother me and I can be sensitive to smells. Both lines are better than the raw shea butter line though.

    The green label line for Shea Moisture is the bomb.com! My mother has very thin hair and it is falling out in the center. I bought her the whole line for Christmas to try help her. Today, has been the first from since Christmas that I seen her. I can actually report that this line really works. My mother's edges and her the center is starting to fill in. The rest of her hair started to thicken and it is growing. I highly recommend this line to anybody who suffers with this problem.
