Assessment: 

The first time I used it, I noticed it left a waxy/sticky residue that weighed down my hair and made it ICKY! I was not impressed but after a while decided to give it a second chance & OMG was that a good decision. 
Since then I've been using it as my moisturiser non-stop & its been FAB! 

When I had my hair out I would part my hair into 6/8 sections and moisturise my hair with it nightly (ONE PUMP goes a long way) before sealing with my coconut, olive & castor oil mix. Now that my hair is in a weave, I only use it on my leave out/occasionally on the ends of my weave. 

Since I've started using this product I've noticed my hair is definitely more moisturised and therefore I have suffered from less breakage. It is no longer waxy/sticky/heavy but rather light and it leaves my hair soft and bouncy - so much so that I cant keep my hands out of it! 

Does it protect the hair against spilt ends? YES it does! I have noticed a huge reduction in my spilt ends since I've been using this. 

Oh & the smell is AMAZING! Put not overpowering which is a good thing. 

Rating:







I am giving this product a rating of *4 Stars*
I will become a staple product for the time being (maybe even for life) but right now, I am looking for a moisturiser with better ingredients. I will, however repurchase this whilst looking for another moisturiser as I am afraid to run out of it. 

Would I recommend this product?
YES! It is a great staple product to have! The ingredients might not be 100% au naturel  but the results are amazing.
