Shea Moisture Organic Haircare- Reviews!

With the new year, one of my resolutions was to replace all my beauty products with organic ones, as I run out of things. One of the first things to go was shampoo, so I did some research and found the Shea Moisture brand.

They have a ton of different types, each with a different key ingredient, but I chose to go with the 'Raw Shea Butter' ones for moisturizing & with the hope of keeping my hair looking smooth.

Other than the obvious shea butter, the other key ingredients in these are sea kelp and argan oil. The argan oil, which is a super trendy haircare ingredient at the moment, is great for elasticity and shine, while the sea kelp is filled with essential minerals and nutrients that are amazing for your hair! SO basically, these are completely all natural/organic, which I love, plus they're cruelty free and that is a MAJOR plus.

I spotted the shampoo & conditioner on sale at Duane Reade, so I decided to jump on the deal and just grab both. Since the emphasis benefit of the product was "moisturizing," I was a little worried that my hair wouldn't feel as clean as I would've liked. I was happily mistaken! After applying the sham
poo I did notice that my hair felt a lot softer than it typically would have after using my old, chemically-induced shampoo. I loved that the shampoo easily lathered, which is one of my top requirements in shampoo. And it definitely did clean my hair!

The conditioner was as I expected- very smooth, detangled my hair and moisturized it. Not a whole lot to say about it to be honest but it is a great conditioner!

The only thing I don't like about this duo is that my hair doesn't stay clean for as long as I would like. Typically, I like to wash my hair every other day, and use dry shampoo on the off days. With this, my hair gets more greasy than it normally would, so I would definitely need to wash my hair every day to keep it as clean as I like it to be.

When my leave-in conditioner ran out, I picked up the Shea Moisture Raw Shea Butter Extra Moisture Detangler. Mouthful though that name is, this is one of the best haircare products I've ever used. When I get out of the shower, I just squeeze a little bit of this onto my hand (about the size of a kidney bean), spread it on my fingers and just run it through my hair. I give it a few minutes to sit, and then just brush my hair out.

I love the smooth texture this gives my hair! After using these products, my hair definitely feels soft, moisturized, and looks super healthy. I highly recommend them and I really want to try some of the other varieties!!
