I turned off Law and Order to watch your review! You have the best reviews, honest, sincere, full of personality, engaging and not too long (they're thorough!). :-) Very helpful.
@@productjunkiediva Now that my irritation with Shea Moisture has subsided, I recently tried their Manuka Honey & Yogurt Protein Repair. Super glad I did, it works beautifully. ;-)
If I’m buying whipped butter - I need it to be whipped better than I could do. I agree with you 💯 %. I don’t want to feel any grains. I have raw Shea butter in my house - I could’ve done that myself.
Yaaaayyy!! Love everything about this video!! Your hair looks so good! I've been watching so many Melanin videos, finally getting my hands on the package this weekend. I think I'm going to try it for the first time with a spray and twist with just the Melanin Cream and then try it as a Leave-In, yes to your solid 8 rating, very promising, so we shall see what happens! Would love to see a gel from her also. The Alikay Lemongrass Leave-In didn't work for me but as you mentioned it smelled SO good! Totally agree with you, if I'm using a shea-based product I'm definitely hoping for it to be whipped to that creamy, smooth perfection, where it just emulsifies so well. Yes to the Lemongrass hair perfume 😍! Looking forward to your Honey's Handmade video, my interest in them is picking up again! Awesome video as always, can't wait for the next one!
I want to support but that price is still steep for me. I have a lot of products and although we all complain about 8oz jars of products but I am not that heavy handed with stylers or moisturizers. Deep conditioners are a different situation. But I have a lot of moisturizers, leave-ins, and stylers already they were wayyyyy more in my price point. I do prefer a healthy mix of quantity and quality so I’m not gonna spend $50 for a cream and oil. I will wait for a sale.
HI Yes, I have a feeling that once the company really gets going, she will start offering sales. I am also hoping that she produces a gel at some point. PJD
The shipping is ridiculous. I’ll support from afar but I can’t justify spending that amount of money on shipping. I’ll wait for a sale as well. $16 for a good high quality product if fine, but the shipping is a no for me
The more I use this the more I like it. It good definition. I used it with a leave in and aloe pudding that normally leave my hair feeling dry & crusty and my hair came out soft, moisturized and defined. My shipping wasn’t so great, I had to email them because the tracking was showing awaiting pickup for several days. Once I emailed, I got it in like 2 days. I have so many products but this is what I keep reaching for to use on my hair & my daughter’s hair.
HI Yes, I don't recall if I mentioned it or glossed over it, but I did try it with a leave-in (a few) and my best results were still using it as the leave in with nothing under it. Thanks for watching. PJD
I just got Oyin's hair tonic and hair dew and the tangle teezer. Love them all! Just the hair tonic fragrance is pretty strong. My moisture is lasting with those products and they're buildable
Awesome video as usual! I look forward to seeing the Honey's Handmade items and your thoughts on the Curls Green line please. I am enjoying the new mane choice peach black tea and Cool Laid lines.
Hello 1922MistyBlue You know I have been on the hunt for that cool laid line..lol. I decided to just calm down and wait because it just has to hit a store soon, it must!!! I'm glad you're enjoying both lines. Initially I wasn't concerned with the Peach line but now you have me interested. You are my product pusher. :-) Thanks as always for watching. PJD
HI Susan Thanks so much. I was able to film a few videos on this day so I will get some new content up very soon. Thanks as always for your support. PJD
Hello, I agree that Alikay edge control is for edges ONLY!! BTW where have you been? I so look forward to your YOU TUBE videos. #missingyou&yourvideos;-)
Hello Penn2Pal It's great to have you back on the channel :-). I hope you're doing very well. Thanks so much for always being here, I value your support. PJD
I remember looking at my Q redew after using it for the first time and I too questioned that purchase. I have probably used it a handful of times, but I keep telling myself I need to get more uses in to make it worth the bucks I spent..lol. PJD
I just stumbled upon your channel and I'm so glad I did. My hair texture is similar to yours, dry with very little curl pattern. Very in depth review...nice. Do you have a video on your favorites that really work for you? Definitely subscribing.
Hello PJD!! :-) Wonderful and thorough reviews on the Melanine conditioner and the Alikay Naturals products. I may pick up the Alikay Naturals gel but not sure yet. I haven't tried any new products lately but I will definitely take a look at Honey Handmade's products (I've never heard of them). Rewinding a bit, did you get Afroveda products for BF and if you did how long did it take to get your to come in? Please do a review on that Stila Souffle. It looks interesting. Have a wonderful week! Lola
Hello Miss Lola So nice to hear from you, I hope you're doing well. Yes, I did buy Afroveda for BF and it took a while to ship. I actually received my products almost at the end of December. I just placed an order recently during her last sale. Honey's Handmade had a great BF sale, I am looking forwarding to sharing my thoughts on their line. I hope you have a great week too. Thanks so much for watching and commenting. PJD
New Subbie here! Although I am not natural, I still enjoyed your reviews! Waiting for your review on the Stilla soufflé as I am a makeup junkie (although I have not come to terms with that as yet) lol. Still looking for the Milani raspberry lipstick :)
She did said use a leave in with cream... I think it is best to use a gel but idk if you were your hair out to worry abt a gel.. I didn’t like the Alikay gel maybe bc I’m glycerin sensitive but it felt weird in my hair and hard to wash out I might try ur way for slick back... The twisting butter the verdict is still out but I think I like it on my skin better than hair.. The mousse is the best I only got those three items. I tried the dour hair cream and mousse horrible! Took back to Sally’s should have known bc my hair hate synthetic ingredients for the first five ingredients
Hello I honestly felt like I was the only person who didn't get positive results form doux products. I actually filmed a second WNTW which will have the doux in it, discussing the three items I purchased. I have not tried the twisting butter on my skin, I may give that a try. I am just so in love with the scent of the liquid gold line. Thanks for commenting. PJD
I really wanted to love the melanin twisting butter from naptural but it really flakes on my hair and I just don’t like it I tried it twice both times with a leave in and I got flakes
Hi Tatiana Thanks for watching. :-) I always live in my truth, and the product wasn't trash so I wouldn't label it as such. However, I mentioned that I wouldn't repurchase because I have had better. The product works best for me in one specific category, as a leave-in, but since I have other products that work better for me in that same category that's why I'm not running out to repurchase. I would need it to be superior to the things that I have in order for a repurchase to happen (or a price / shipping adjustment). I've definitely used trash products for my hair, but her product wouldn't fall into that category for me. Just as the Alikay products mentioned in this same video, some of them were ok but I am not running to repurchase all of them yet I still wouldn't place them in the trash category, I hope that makes sense. I hope you stick around on this channel because you will see that truth definitely lives here, according to my experience of course. Did you try Melanin products? If so, please share your scoop with me, what was your experience? Thanks for commenting. PJD

I look forward to your videos. You give the most detailed and informative reviews.
Hello
Thanks for the kind words. I appreciate you and the time you've taken to watch and comment. :-)

Love the reviews of the products. When shea butter gets to get gritty like that it's starting to get too old. You know I'm the queen of butters.

Witney said to use a leave-in first, and the oil makes a huge difference.

It would probably be great if the line makes a leave in spray and refresher spray
I should be sleeping, but your videos are so captivating!

I've never done Shea butter because I'm scared of getting a grainy product that I have to really work in. I'm not doing that on my fine hair😂
