Reviews

Love the Almond & Avocado

"Love the Almond & Avocado Daily Moisturizing Lotion. Perfect for my hair. I also love the Almond and Avocado Leave in Conditioner and the Almond & Avocado Curl Enhancing Mousse. My son uses the Moisturizing Lotion too. The products are great and really moisturize your hair. They don't dry your hair out like some products."

— Felicia D. (5/5)

"This lotion is on the thicker side and great for dry hair I used it on dry hair and my hair has felt soft and hydrated for 4 days now. The first day there was a slight sticky film but the second day the product soaked into my hair and has felt soft and shinny without any residue"

— Ayesha (5/5)
