Herbal Extract (Normally drop a few herbs in water or oil or alcohol as the solvent, wait for a few minutes/hours, sieve out the herbs, use the water to make the product) Today I’m putting two of my OGs to the test. In this article, I will compare two popular hair care products, Shea Moisture vs Kinky Curly Knot Today. These products are well-known in the natural hair care community and have garnered a dedicated following. As someone who has spent years experimenting with various hair care products, I understand the importance of finding the right products that cater to your hair’s unique needs. Yes, low porosity hair definitely needs a leave-in conditioner. The treatments prior to the leave-in open up your cuticles enough to deposit the goodness from conditioners into your hair.

Both act as preservatives - citric acid is a weak fruit derived acid that stops products going rancid, also adjusts pH slightly and phenoxyethanol is an alcohol which can also be a solvent.

Vegetable Glycerin: Glycerin is a humectant that attracts and retains moisture, keeping the hair hydrated and preventing frizz. What I love so much about this leave-in conditioner is how lightweight it is. That’s exactly what I think a leave-in is supposed to be. It has lots of organic ingredients, spreads easily and it detangles like nobody’s business on both my curly kinky hair and munchkin’s kinky curly hair. Once the water and moisture have made it into your cuticles, it remains to seal it in effectively and that’s where the leave-in conditioner comes in. im sorry but having worked in formulations, you dont know what you are talking about and read this label incorrectly. you are slandering this product. Silk Protein: Silk protein helps in strengthening the hair, making it less prone to damage. It adds a protective barrier, reducing frizz, and giving the hair a smoother appearance.

Shea Butter: Shea butter is a deeply moisturizing ingredient that seals in moisture, providing long-lasting hydration to the hair. It also helps in reducing dryness and improving elasticity.Ingredients such as soybean extract and pumpkin seed extract, both found in Miss Jessie's Leave-In Condish, can help soften your curls. This leads to easier styling and less tangled hair. You can also tap into ingredients such as the yogurt extract found in SheaMoisture's Manuka Honey & Yogurt Hydrate + Repair Multi-Action Leave-In that help nourish the hair and prevent heat damage. When hair is damaged—whether it be by hot tools and styling products, or just natural wear and tear—it's important to use products that will boost its health. Be on the lookout for ingredients such as shea butter and jojoba oil. If your hair is processed and porous, you can look for ingredients like hydrolyzed wheat protein or keratin to help strengthen hair and repair damage. Our ingredient and product descriptions are for reference only. The material is provided as general information only. They should not be used solely, and we recommend you use multiple sources of information for better accuracy. you confused the extracts with concentrated oil extracts. they probably extract the mango, marshmellow root, slippery elm, and the lemon grass in water or alcohol. but that extract stays dissolved in liquid form which is then used as a base. id bet they removed the alcohol once the extraction was finished, lemon grass extracts into an oily substance. making this product water based. the surfactant then allowed all of these to be made into an emulsion.
