Listen up Primal/Paleo people!
I have never, ever left a review before. I have always wondered how there can be so many reviews on so many internet sites. I have finally been moved enough to stop my life for 5 minutes. I am strict Primal/Paleo. I won't eat it if it is not organic or grass-fed. What I put on my body has to be edible in my mind as well since your skin, the biggest organ you have, absorbs everything in about 30 seconds.
I have been making my own beauty products for at least a year. EVERYTHING. I have had a lot of success with it, except for my hair. You see, I truly believe skin, hair, health and well-being starts with food. It all starts with food. Period. That being said, the "no-poo" method of using baking soda as shampoo and apple cider vinegar for conditioner worked, but left my normally very coarse, dry and frizzy hair just as coarse, dry and frizzy as before. I just dealt with it. I would dry my hair, it would be a frizzy mess, then use a flat iron to tame it.
I finally broke down and tried this since I would eat any of the ingredients on the list. (Well, not really, but you get my drift.) I dried my hair with the hair dryer simply running my fingers through it. And do you know what I have left? Absolutely perfect hair! I have never even come out with hair like this from a salon. My hair shines like crazy and bounces like I am a movie star. Not one frizzy spot, just beautiful wavy, curly bounce. I used to hate to flat iron my hair to tame the frizz as I always wanted smooth and bouncy curls. I would buy this product over and over and over again. I am leaving the same review for the conditioner.
Simply amazing. Enough said.
