Call the press! There appears to be a Shea Moisture product I can rave about as well as recommend. If my review were based on using the product once, this would be the gist of my post. However, my review is based on long-term use...

Giovanni Direct Leave-In Conditioner Review
Incredibly moisturising yet light, Giovanni Direct Leave-In Conditioner is phenomenal. Although it is quite expensive (£7.49 for 250ml, from Amazon, the lowest price I could find), I can’t emphasise how much a little goes a long way. Giovanni's leave-in conditioner has a scent but it...
Shea Moisture SuperFruit Complex 10-In-1 Renewal System Hair Masque Review
I doubt I will ever love Shea Moisture but I must admit, I'm beginning to like the brand. Reflecting the expression, “third time lucky”, I have now tried three Shea Moisture products (all of different lines) and the third purchase is the first to impress....
Shea Moisture Coconut & Hibiscus Frizz-Free Curl Mousse Review
Dear Shea Moisture, why must you leave me disappointed? I'm trying so hard to get to know and love you. Help me out please! This is my second Shea Moisture purchase (from a different line) and once again, I'm unimpressed. I was left incredibly disappointed...

Motions Natural Textures Smoothing Conditioner Review
In every natural hair journey there will be highs and lows. It has become an intriguing movement rapidly generating interest, positive as well as negative. One negative is brands looking to capitalise, marketing products using any term in relation to natural hair. This is the...
Dark and Lovely Au Naturale Anti-Shrinkage Gentle Softening Wash Review
No sulphates, no parabens and no silcones – guarantees all natural curly haired individuals have become accustomed to expect. The natural hair movement has inspired brands once dedicated to the relaxer to diversify their ranges, introducing products dedicated to natural hair care. A brand primarily...
A Dark and Lovely Haul
Taking advantage of Superdrug’s sale, I decided to take a trip down memory lane. Dark and Lovely was the brand behind the sweet smell of my hair as a child. I stopped using Dark and Lovely products more than six years ago as I felt the...
Staple Investments: Organics by Africa’s Best Hair Mayonnaise
Although marketed as a hair mayonnaise treatment for weak, damaged hair, Organics by Africa's Best Hair Mayonnaise is my staple investment as well as a beauty must have. Enriched with egg protein, vitamins, olive oil and herbal extracts, this product may smell divine but it’s certainly...
