New High Porosity Regimen/ Bumble and Bumble & Original Moxie Product Review

Welcome back beautiful curlies!

In my last post I told ya I discovered that I may have high porosity hair based on how my hair behaves after a ACV rinse. Now since then i have been really caught up in my family's birthdays, as well as my own, and my hair has taken a back seat. Now I knew I was not going to have the time to maintain my hair so I put them in twists (bad idea). For many twists are a protective style but for my hair they are destructive! They look horrible after only a few days and when they are taken down its tangles galore.

So last night i applied some Tresseme Naturals (white cap) to my hair to moisturize and provide slip. Then I used a applicator bottle to apply my avc rinse concentrating on my scalp first then on the length of my hair. Secondly I used the Aussie 3min Miracle to detangle and deep condition. Okay I never rinsed it out because I was tired of getting my hair wet so I used a cotton T to soak up the excess product and went on to styling. Now the plan was a wash and go. However, my hair doesn't dry in time for work the next day so I did medium-large braids instead. One side I used Bumble and Bumble Bb curl conscious defining creme, on the other side Original Moxie Shape Shifter Reforming creme.

This will be a short review because I simply hate long ones. The curl conscious creme is a thick white cream that goes on smooth but in my opinion provides only some definition. I still had frizz and as the days go on that frizz will only increase. So...overall my review is a 2/5.

The Shape Shifter is quickly becoming a favorite for me. Now i noticed it doesn't work for me unless I use the acv rinse first. It is a runny cream that is sandy in color and smells herbal and awful. However, goes on like a dream and provides a nice amount of slip and SHINE!!! Not like a oily shine but a hydrated shine. My hair looked so much better, the health of my hair looked so much better. I didn't need a lot of it either.

Well i will be using this regimen for a while to see how this works out minus the Bb curl conscious creme. Take care curlies!
