JessiCurl Too Shea! Extra Moisturizing Conditioner
Friday, August 30, 2013
Daily conditioning for dry, thirsty curls.
Directions: Apply to clean, wet hair, comb through and rinse after 3-5 minutes. Follow with your favourite Jessicurl styling product. Too Shea can also be left in for all day moisture or used as a deep conditioner for finer hair.
Ingredients: Water (Aqua) infused with Equisetum Maximum Lam (Horsetail), Mentha Piperita (Peppermint), Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary), Laurus Nobilis (Bay Leaf), Ocimum Basilicum (Basil), Arctium Lappa (Burdock Root), Althaea Officinalis (Marshmallow Root), Origanum Vulgare (Oregano), Cymbopogon Flexuosus (Lemongrass), Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme), Salvia Officinalis (Sage) and Urtica Dioica (Nettle); Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Behentrimonium Methosulfate (and) Cetearyl Alcohol, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Hydrolyzed Oat Flour, Soy Lecithin, Fragrance, Diazolidinyl Urea (and) Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate.
Truth: I do not have curly hair, but this conditioner definitely shocked me. I've used it for my co-washes, while deep conditioning with heat and as a leave-in conditioner and it's very good for all 3 purposes. I usually associate thin conditioners for co-washing. I personally think it performs best as a co-wash and leave-in because of it's thin consistency and moisturizing capabilities. The results I got, whether I co-washed or deep conditioned, were pretty much the same. The yummy Coconut scent of Too Shea instantly makes you curious about the product. I love the smell! I applied it to my damp hair in the shower and immediately you feel it melting into the hair. It absorbs so easily. It rinses well and my hair felt so hydrated after. Once my hair was completely air dried, it was smooth, soft with minimal frizz. With Peppermint being so high in the ingredient list, I thought there would have been some tingle/stimulation in my scalp while using it, however, that was not the case. Overall, I wish the bottle was bigger and a little more affordable in price, but it was worth it. Although I have coarse thick hair, this conditioner would work well for both thick and fine hair types.
Pros:
- Fresh Coconut/Citrus scent lingers in hair
- Smooth hair
- Moisturized & Soft Hair
- Product absorbs easily into the hair
- Slip
- No Silicones
Cons:
- Thin consistency (Could be a "Pro" depending on how you use it)
- Pricey
Price: $16.95 USD 8 fl oz.
Hairlicious Rating: (4/5) Very Good

I discovered Too Shea! earlier this year and I really love it. It surprised me too as a co-wash, leave-in, and a deep conditioner. I'm a sucker for multipurpose products. I didn't, however, like the scent.
