Introductions and Mixing Magic

My name is Lesley and this is my blog about (healthy) hair care and beauty. I've been lurking on beauty blogs and hair care forums for months now and I'm ready to share and give everyone my perspective.

For reference, I am:
4a/b relaxed, thick and coarse strands
I relax approx. every 10-12 weeks with a stylist
Hair goals: APL (May 2009)
Regimen: TBA
MAC: NC 45

Anyway, I'm a product junkie. I would like to say that I'm in rehab, but I'm not quite there yet. But...I'm on the road to recovery, I'm working on using up the tons of product in my cabinet and really only buying samples of things that I'm not certain about or staples.

So I bought two sample packs of Silk Elements Luxury Moisturizing Conditioner. I'll be honest, two samples was not enough for my hair thickness AND I didn't like the consistency. Soo...I did what any recessionista would do, I added my Aussie Three-Minute Miracle Moisture Treatment. It was LOVE. I thought that I had felt "slip" before, but no, it was something that I had only read about.

While it was an amazing experience, I don't know if this will become my go-to conditioner. I like mixing, but my HG products should be amazing alone. Also, I pre-poo'd with some nice stuff, so I don't know if that was part of the reason for my wonderful results.
