Solange wore simple black sandals with matching black nail polish that worked well with the busy print. She topped off the look with a show-stopping Afro, large statement earrings, a smokey eye and neutral lip. Is this strong yet understated perfection? Is her look hot or not?
I know the bottles look busted but the packaging label smudges easily and this product has been USED. Stick around to find out whether the Combing Cream and Leave-in Detangler (same exact product with different label by the way) is any good.
You may remember that I reviewed the Karité products before after using them for just a few short weeks. Here is what I mentioned about using it on my natural hair (I go between a variety of styles from straight to locked etc.):
gave my hair slip without sticky build-up even though it isn't entirely transparent
dries clear
doesn't weigh down my hair.
(so far) doesn't impede the effectiveness of other styling aids used after detangling.
left my hair light and slightly fluffy to the touch.
is great for people who only finger-detangle in the shower or those with longer hair who don't want to stand in the shower while detangling. Otherwise put, it is great for out-of-shower post-shampoo/conditioner detangling.
