My Bee Mine Products Arrived! - Deja's Hair Milk & Bee-U-Ti-Ful Conditioner
Product Haul Wednesday, April 04, 2012
If you follow my Twitter and/or Instagram (add me: @hairlicious), you've probably already seen the photo I posted on my Bee Mine package that arrived today. I'm excited to try them both :)
What you see in the photo is the Bee Mine Deja's Hair Milk in the Island Mango scent as well as the Bee Mine Bee-U-Ti-Ful Deep Conditioner. I'm going to start using these products this week! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my hair will like them.
Please let me know if you've tried these products!
Did they work for you?
How did you use them?
This weekend I tried Flexi rods, after many failed attempts, and this time it came out pretty decent. I tried a different method this time around allowing me to use only 2 Flexi rods to get this style. I moisturized and sealed prior to putting the rods in. I'm going to perfect this style a little more so that it lasts throughout the day (the curls dropped a bit after going outside). I'm definitely going to try this again :)
Have you tried Flexi-rods? If so, what's your method?
Here's a video with some easy yet helpful tips for those who are looking to learn more about Stretching their relaxers (very helpful to those transitioning to natural hair) as well as my favourite product to help me throughout my stretches :)
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
Promises: Our moisturizer is enriched with pro-vitamins, natural proteins and healing butters that heal seal and nourish your hair and scalp. Beautiful hair requires a complete balance of moisture and protein to prevent breakage. This light cream moisturizer help to prevent split ends and strengthen hair from root to tip.
Directions: Apply a small amount to hair and scalp as needed. Style as desired.
Ingredients: Distilled water, Hydrogenated Persea gratissima (Avocado) Seed Oil, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Seed Butter, Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil (and) Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Persea gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Emulsifying wax, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Paraben & Formaldehyde Free Preservative & Fragrance (Coconut Cream - CC).
The Truth: I decided to try this moisturizer out due to all the rave reviews it received on the net. I ultimately caved. After I purchased it and took approximately 3-4 weeks to arrive (not bad, however, it could have been quicker). I`ve been using this moisturizer on & off for the past 4-5 months and I can honestly say that I have a love/hate relationship with it :( At times, my hair would feel so moisturized and smooth, then when I apply it to my hair again, it`s just the opposite, hard dry hair plus breakage! I've used it on dry hair, damp hair, as a leave-in and as a moisturizer. After all of that, I've come to realize that this product works best for me as a moisturizer on semi damp hair. I think it`s best for locking in moisture, kind of like a mild-heavy sealant for the winter months. It`s unfortunate that this product did not agree with my hair. I really wanted to like it :(
Pros:
• Smells great. ( I got the Coconut Cream Scent)
• Nice shine.
• Light and creamy consistency
• Little goes a long way (product lasts long)
Cons:
• Quite pricey.
• Made my hair flat.
• Moisturized for a short period of time.
• Noticed breakage.
Chances are I would not purchase this product again, however, I haven't given up on the rest of the Bee Mine product line. I'm interested in trying the Deja Hair Milk. In fact, I placed an order a few days back, so it should be here soon!!
Price: $18.97 USD
