Description: Moisture-based dc
Disclaimer-Only used 3 times due to it's small size.
Experiences:
I felt like this product was mediocre. I've had better. I found that this product did give me slip and also that my hair was easy to detangle. My issue with this dc is how thick it is. I found that I had to use a whole lot more than I usually use in order to cover my hair and my roots. This product only comes in 2 oz bottles at the moment and at $10 a pop, I would be paying $10 every 3 washes or so.

I used this product as a dc only.

I didn't like the thick nature of this product. This product seemed to dry on my hair before I could even finish applying it to the rest of my head. Mainly b/c of it's pasty texture. I had to sprinkle water on it before I steam dc'd. The results were good so I can't really complain. The smell was of lemongrass. The ingredients are pretty decent. I have had better dc's than this one so I will not keep this product as a staple. I enjoyed the experimentation with it, but now I gotta move on. Mediocre is not what I am looking for. I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything if I don't repurchase this product.

ewww! I hate that...to be honest, that's what DPR 11 is like. Very thick and pasty. I bought 2 jars at once (& don't ask why I did that lol) but when this last jar is done, no more.I have to mix it with honey & hot 6 oil for it to feel right.

I know, I thought about mixing it with oils, but since it was only 2oz and I wanted an accurate review I just left it alone. I don't like products that I have to struggle with to apply.
