Can someone reccommend some humectant free hair products (free from glycerine, panthenol, propylene gylcol, honey, castor oiletc). Specifically, I'm looking for stylers and moisturizers that are free from these things. I've recently ordered some shea butter for the first time..so I hope that will help.

Yes, humectants are good for your hair but not if you live in severely humid areas such as southern Louisiana. Humectants triple the effect of frizz that high humidity does to your hair, kills the texture of my braidouts, and causes my hair to swell up severely.

Doesn't it suck that almost every hair product out there has humectants? I pretty much killed lots of time searching for products at my BSS without them. I feel kind of screwed here...
