Post image for Product Review Follow Up: Switch Up Styles w/CARA B

As some of you know we recently reviewed hair products by CARA B Naturally (see review here). In that review I explained how Leave-In Conditioner / Daily Moisturizer left me wanting more slippage used as a leave-in. I wanted to give you all an update on its use a daily moisturizer. So let’s take it again from the top shall we??

CARA B Leave-In Conditioner / Daily Moisturizer (See ingredients list here)

  • Price: $13.00 for 8 fl oz.  This product doubles as a Leave’In Conditioner, so technically your getting 2 products for 1 (Genius!).
  • Smell: Very, very light, soft and fresh smelling. Again, baby powder and a vanilla or sugary sweet smell.
  • Consistency: It’s rich, creamy and not runny all.

As a daily moisturizer, this product is a DREAM. I first dampened her hair with the CARA B Hair Mist (see review here). Look at the these moisturized coils.  Again, a little surprised at the definition we were getting, given these aren’t curl defining products.  This picture is prior to detangling a section of her hair…

This is a picture after working the daily moisturizer through and detangling her hair.  Can you imagine the softness? It’s truly delightful like!!

OK. So smoothing is just ridiculous, check it…

What in da world?!?! OOWEE! Let’s look at this again… It’s like budda’baby!

Here’s our remix style.  Braided twist ponies w/criss-cross into a high ponytail with loose twists. 

Jeah Boyee!!

In Summary

Big Ups
LOVIN’ this product as a daily moisturizer and I’ve been on a hunt for a good one for a hot minute. Smoothing is fantastic. When used in conjunction with the Hair Mist, her hair stays moisturized all day (meaning I did not have to reapply at night for the next day) if not for a few days. Being that this product is light, it doesn’t really build up like other products I’ve used, which is another plus.

Cons
*crickets*  This gets the job done for us as a daily moisturizer.  Me likey a LOT!

Go’Head Baby!

Great job–her hair looks amazing as always.
Oh man, you’re making me want to buy another product, which I said I wouldn’t do because I have a bathroom full of them. Honestly though, my dd’s hair is still crying out for moisture. I need something serious. This looks like it might do the trick. Whole foods?

I love your blog, all your writing, your daughter’s gorgeous hair and styles. I’ve been looking for a daily moisturizer that I don’t have to reapply again in the afternoon or evening. I’m gonna go ahead and try this one!

I just got mine in the mail two days ago. I LOVE the smell and amazingly, so do the father and big brother. It’s the first product we all agree on. I am using the mist to dampen and soften and leave-in as daily moisturizer. I love how soft it leaves baby’s hair. Can I tell you that my package included a REAL HAND WRITTEN THANK YOU CARD addressed to me and signed!!! Have you ever seen such a thing? Really made it special.
