End of HHJ Obsession/ Devotion
I've considered so many other areas of my life that could use this devotion. This is my goal deadline. I will have to purge all of my unused products and devote my time an energy to the betterment of another area of my life. MBL is my ultimate goal, but I have no idea where my hair will be come December 31, 2013. That will be five years of being hair obsessed.

My experience:
This is a wonderful serum. A very rich and abundant serum. I have been using this serum exclusively for the last year 16+ months and I still have half a bottle left. This serum has a sweet scent to it, not overwhelming. It has lasting shine. Now my hair is pretty healthy so I'm not sure how much of a difference it makes as far as the shine lasting. I love this all throughout the relaxer cycle. I normally apply this after detangling with a spray leave in. I apply anywhere from a pea-size amount to a quarter-size amount depending on how I plan to style. If I am flat ironing, I find that I only need to use a little. If I am air drying, wet setting or ponytail drying I will add a larger amount. It helps me when I am air drying and keeps my hair from frizzing up. If I apply this prior to a wet set I have dazzling shine. When my NG is giving me the blues during long stretches I will sometimes dab extra to my NG and smooth it with a comb very gently. It really helps when I need an extra detangling boost.

This is one of my favorite shine serums...I love the smell and how it makes my hair shine. Good review! Happy Holidays :-)
Thanks for checking it out Blessed Tresses. So far this is the only one I've tried and it is a staple. I think I have 2-3 more to try. I love everything about this so I don't know how the next few will top it.
