The whole winter we have had no snow- then Saturday we got just over 2ft of snow. It just kept snowing and snowing and snowing. The whole front of the car was buried under snow. Yesterday and some of today we shoveled snow. I've shoveled snow here and there, but never like this. It truly is a workout. Snow is so heavy! Now I kind of want to build a snowman. Or have a snowball fight or something. It's probably going to take forever for it to melt-so I've got time. Anyway, let me stop babbling about the snow and start the review.

I've been having the worst luck with this brand lately. I honestly don't know why I keep trying things out. I probably shouldn't- but most likely I still will. It has some good ingredients in some of the products but lately I've noticed some changing for the worse. New stuff has ingredients they would never have used before.
I don't have any scalp issued...but I thought the ingredients list was pretty clean so I picked it up. It has the bubble-gum/pear scent that pretty much all the African Black soap line has. I'm not a big fan of it in the shampoo or conditioner, but it doesn't linger much anyway.
The shampoo is very watery and it doesn't lather much-which makes it feel like it doesn't spread well. So I end up using a lot. It isn't drying. But I wouldn't call it moisturizing either. It cleans OK. But I have used much better shampoo's so it's not something I would recommend nor purchase again.
The conditioner has the same texture as all others from the Shea Moisture line. It's not very detangling or hydrating. It just does very little for my hair, if it does anything at all. I don't get any extra shine at all, which I thought I would get with this line.
It claims to be excellent for the scalp,but the first couple of time I used it I actually noticed my scalp flaking. And that never happens to me.
The ingredients are decent.

Overall, not for me. I really should just stop with this brand. Lately I've been so disappointed with the things I've tried, and this is another one of those disappointments.
