Default Looking for a organic super moisturizing leave-in

Hey guys! So I've been revamping my regimen because I have found that my hair needs for moisture! I love KBB sweet ambrosia for my 4a hair but I'm looking for something with a little more moisture, that makes my hair supple, soft & that set angles! I've tried KC knot today & my hair doesn't like it! Any suggestions?!

Koils by Nature Shealoe Moisturizing Leave-in is probably the most moisturizing I have ever used, and you really don't need a lot (: It's very expensive, though, at $22 for 12oz.

My favorite, though, is the Beautiful Curls Leave-in. It's light, so you can use a lot without making your hair weighed down and greasy, but it makes the hair so soft and really defined. I could use it to style if I needed to. I use the wavy-curly version, but the curly-kinky one would probably be more moisturizing for thicker, coarser, curlier hair. I use a lot to rinse out right after shampooing, then I blot my hair with a towel and scrunch in about a quarter-sized dollop more of it. Just repurchased today! It was only $12 for 12oz.

HTH!

Marie Dean products are really rich and moisturizing (there are a ton of products that you could use as a li), as are Komaza. Other lines have some really nice DTs that you could use as a li--CJ, SS, CK, to name a few. KCKT is a detangler, not really very moisturizing.

I love Aubrey Organic Mandarin Magic moisturizing jelly ( AOMM) Keeps my frizz down and boosts my curl as well.

I second the suggestion for beautiful curls leave in! I just bought the one from the babies and up line and the smell is amazing! much better than their wavy to curly, and i haven't smelled the curly to kinky. It's very moisturizing and trluly non toxic. Some products claim to be organic and green, but have synthetic chemicals in them!

Thank you for posting where you bought all these! Half the battle, for me, is finding these things. Running around to a million different stores can be exhausting and frustrating!
