Oyin Handmade...

I just found out from the Oyin team on Sunday that the Honey Hemp Condish can be used as a shaving cream. There was someone there who had tried it and said it worked well. I'll be trying it and let you know.

I wouldn't say that I have sensitive skin...until I used the Oyin sample pack and broke out in a horrible rash on my palms and hands that lasted a few weeks. Skin is super sensitive now. Don't want to say it was the Oyin products that did it because I LOVED what they did for my hair, but I switched to those exclusively that week to see how it worked on my hair and then broke out in the rash a few days later...

I had already placed my second order and everything but when I told them about the rash they gave me a full refund, no problem so I love their customer service but...

*sigh* Guess I'll never be an Oyin Honey. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Funny thing is I never broke out on my scalp. Just hands, arms and legs a little bit... [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Hey girl! I remember you from that sunday! Yep I use it as a shaving cream and it is pretty nice. It leaves your skin pretty smooth and soft. I recommend.

Has anyone tried their Grand Poo Bar? I really want to try a shampoo bar.

Hey Talisa,

That was you! I kept trying to remember who told me about it. Thanks for that tip! I tried it and like it. Might be my imigination but my legs were smoother and my shave seemed to last longer.

I've used the Poo Bar and really like it. I like pretty much everything Oyin to be honest. But the Poo bar makes a nice lather and doesn't leave my hair feeling stripped. It feels clean but not overly so (squeaky clean) if you know what I mean.

Someone from the first Oyin bottling party I attended recommended it to me. It's the only poo method I've used for the past couple of months and I'm pleased.

Which one is good for just a good moisturizer for the hair? I may order this tonight.

I may have to order the Poo Bar, I am getting excited just by reading your recommendations.

@natural83 - try the whipped pudding. that is a true moisturizer among the Oyin products

@coilykinks - try the Poo Bar. it's pretty gentle IMO. please post your results if you do. I hope you (and your hair [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] ) like it.

I am planning to order some more Oyin products soon, because last time I just ordered the sample sizes. My next order will be the Juices and Berries(?), poo-bar, more HHC, burnt sugar pomade, and the shine and define plus the whipped pudding.

Can anyone tell me which juice is better? Frank, Greg or Juices and Berries?

The only difference is the smell. So it's your personal taste or smell for that matter, smile.

I will be definitely trying the HHC. I'm interested in seeing how it will detangle and moisturize my hair.

Oyin products are good stuff. I've only used the Shine-n-Define and Whipped Pudding so far, but I really like them both. The Shine and Define provides a nice soft hold and smells really good (think orange cream bar). If you have 4b or 4c hair you will need an additional product to use with it or your hair will be dry in no time. I did notice that the Shine and Define can leave some residue if there is any Eco Styler Olive Oil Gel in your hair. I really don't like the smell of the Whipped Pudding (straight up Hershey bar), but it doesn't linger in your hair at all. I used this alone after moisturizing w/ my Darcy's Botanicals Daily Leave In and my hair was baby soft. Hope u like the line!

im new to curly nikki and have been transitioning since march 2009 and have been suffering ever since from severe pj'ism i have tried darcy's, kccc, jane carter, and have been using afroveda pur whipped jelly (none of which was i really crazy about, they all left me w hard hair and seemed to dry my hair out)!! i have been on a serious quest for the perfect braid out since i still have about a little less than half of my relaxed hair. Well let me say that i have been eye balling the oyin products for some time and recently decided to endulge yet again on another product that probably wont work!! wow......i was amazed!! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] i used a little of my kbb hair milk as a leave in and mixed just a little of the whipped pudding and shine and define and braided my hair and omg....my best braid out ever!! very soft, defined fluffy hair!!! i couldn't stop touching my hair!! i love their products and the fact that they are all natural!! Im addicted and cant wait to try greg juice and the pomade [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I know what you mean about the Oyin products. I'm loving them all My hair is feels clean, moisturized and well-defined. I bought the curls products and oyin products at the same time. I'm so loving oyin, that i haven't even wanted to try the curls. If I continue to get results like this with oyin, I might sale my brand new curls products on the swap boards. I'm glad you finally found something that works for you too, Naturalashanti. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
