I've been reading this forum for a little while and finally registered. I got a satin pillowcase and some Suave Clarifying conditioner, Herbal Essences Set Me Up, and L'Oreal Out of Bed due to recommendations. I haven't gotten the CG book yet, and wanted to make sure these products are CG friendly. Can someone tell me what PVP and PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil are? Are they water soluble? What about parabens, are they bad? How about (poly)quaternium? Is there an ingredients list somewhere I can look at that explains them?

Also, I tried doing the plopping method, but couldn't get the hang of twisting the towel right, so I just put it in a turban. I used to put product on after towel drying my hair and by then it had already started to frizz. Last night I put on the gel before puttting my hair in a towel and it made a world of difference! My curls were really well defined and I didn't have any frizz.

There is if you click on this site at the top where it says "search" in orange.Type in one of those things you read on back of the bottle,the search button should come up with it.

Some forums have questions like that in them is why if you wanted to peruse through them. If not try the search button.

I am sorry ,I can't be more of help.
But I wanted to welcome you to Nc,and I hope you have a good day.

ps I have the set me up gel and I think it is Cg friendly
