Okay so we all know I was dying to try the famous "Kinky-Curly Knot Today Leave-in conditioner"… I tried it ...liked it, but didn't love it! Since I literally have two textures in my hair I notice when things work and really work like a gem! It worked on the back/side *perimeter* of my head (3C-ish) and did okay for the rest of my hair (4a). I think the problem was this product was too runny and not thick enough or maybe it just works well on freshly made knots ...and not 5 day old knots lol I kidd..
So, now what I do is use it as a semi-base for a leave-in mixture (thanks to kimmaytube for the splendid idea) tried it once and it def equals love! You really won’t notice the “wowzer” until your hair is semi-dry—at least I didn’t (that's when I apply my Shea & coconut concoction *will get to that soon*).
| So, I pretty much follow her ingredient list: |
2 tablespoon – Kinky-Curly Knot Today Leave-in
1 tablespoon – Aloe Vera Juice
½ Tablespoon – Castor Oil
½ tablespoon – Safflower Oil
(I didn’t have Jojoba Oil and I really wanted any reason to add this stuff to the mix.)
I apply this mixture to freshly washed hair. Twist my hair in random two stand twist (this helps separate thick hair). When I’m done wrap my hair. Next morning I should have semi-wet hair if not spirtz a little h20 follow w/ mixture.
Will I repurchase the Kinky-Curly Knot Today Leave-in? Yes! It worked well w/ the other add-ons. Making it a mega detangler machine lol.
***I can get 6-8 usuage from one bottle. Leaving this to last me 1.5 to 2 months!
