Product Review on Alikay Naturals

Hola Meanies,

Hope everyone is doing great. Last week Friday was wash hair day. I have to be honest I hate doing my hair. Ever since I decided to go au naturale I have been trying to take care of my hair like I should of been doing. Anyway I brought new products to use for my transitioning/natural journey. Now that I'm learning how take care of my natural hair why not use natural/ organic products. Don't get it twisted I still use regular products but I make sure there are no parabens, sulfates, and petroleum.

So I came across a great site called BlackOnyxworld.com. The owner of the site is Rochelle. She is a Youtube natural hair Guru. I'm glad I found her she gives me hope, lol. Her spirit is great, whatever information she encounters no matter what it is she shares it with the world. Now that her website is officially open it's time to get down to business. So on her site she sells natural hair/ skin products and handmade earrings. Everything is priced fair, so you will definitely get your moneys worth. As I said before Fridays/Saturdays is hair washing day.



From blackonyxworld.com I have purchased : honey & sage deep conditioner, essential hair growth oil, Shea yogurt hair moisturizer, lemongrass leave-in conditioner, moisturizing hair perfume, raw Shea butter, benzonite clay, black soap and a handmade pair of rasta earrings.



When I washed my hair, I used a organic shampoo/conditioner, the honey & sage deep conditioner, leave-in conditioner, coconut/vitamin E oil, growth oil and the Shea yogurt moisturizer. Now all the products I just mentioned I used them the same way I listed them. When taking care of your hair eventually you create a routine. Anyways the blackonyxworld products are amazing. Everything smells great, nothing is heavy and a lil goes a long way.



Braid-out using Shea Yogurt Hair Moisturizer

I must say my favorite product so far is the Shea yogurt hair moisturizer. You only need a lil and your hair actually absorbs it instead of it coating your hair strands like petroleum/mineral oil based products. Now that I have almost all the products I need, hopefully I will not become a hair PJ ( product junkie). I'm definitely a lotion/splash/perfume/nail polish/make-up junkie, I don't think hair products need to be added to the list.

By the grace of God I've found products that work for me during my transitioning phase. Not sure if it would remain the same when I Big Chop but in due time we'll see. For now and the next few months I'm sticking to blackonyxworld.com, Aussie, and VO5 products. The worst feeling ever is to buy something and it doesn't work to your liking. That's life BUT you can somewhat avoid this when it comes to hair products by purchasing a few items at a time. If it doesn't work give it to a friend/family member or create your own mixture. You can add anything to your shampoo/conditioner/ deep conditioner. Become a mixing diva. With that being said I will definitely be back later this week with a review on bentonite clay.

What are you doing this weekend ?
I will be coloring my hair and giving it some good ass TLC.
