TxRose,
Excellent questions!
Some of the products we buy (that’s why we hawk our Naturallycurly.com t-shirts and other goodies — so we’ll have money to buy products to test for you!) and some products the haircare companies send to us. Several have gotten word of us and want us to review their products.
And you’re right; it is hard to test them all! Even when we find one we like, we have to set it aside and keep testing new ones. Every day is new shampoo, new conditioner, new styling products, etc. Some days I go to work looking GOOD, other days, well, you can guess!
Thanks for being a part of the curlyworld!
