Tha ish: Oyin Handmade leave in conditioner- Greg Juice

I haven’t written about anything hair related since my little experiment in late August 2010, so I thought I would satisfy my hair obsession by mentioning a product that I’ve been using for the past 4 months that has literally answered my prayers!


Oyin Handmade Greg Juice

I bought this spray a while ago because I was getting seriously frustrated with the way that my hair looked and felt. In the summer it felt brittle and looked extremely dry. I used a bunch of products to alleviate this problem, but nothing seemed to work.


I visited the Honeyfig website and took a look at the products that they carry, as well as visiting the curlynikki site to see what other naturals were using.


I had a lot to choose from, but I decided on buying Greg Juice herbal leave in conditioner as I wear my hair in twists (with the aid of extensions-okay, I’m pseudo-natural!).  It states on the packaging that the product works well with anyone that wears their hair in locs , braids or twists, so I thought to give it a shot since nothing else I bought worked.


I wanted to write about this product when I first purchased it, but I had to wait to see how my hair reacted to it. Well...my hair loves it! My dry hair (and scalp) looks and feels a million times better. It honestly feels like a nice tall glass of water for my thirsty hair.


The spray is an oil-free mixture of vegetable moisturizers and herbal essences. The spray has a slight citrus smell, but the fragrance is practically undetectable when I spray on my scalp-which I don’t mind.


I am sooo happy that I bought this product. Although I wear it in a protective style, I want to keep my hair hydrated and moisturized, and thanks to Oyin Handmade it is!
