Glamazons,
I was cracking up laughing to myself the other day when I got a message on Facebook from a good friend of mine saying she wanted to try my product recommendation but already had a natural hair product graveyard in her cabinet. Sigh. Such is the story of my life.
It literally takes me forever and a million product tries to find one that actually works on my hair. And get this: I hear the more your hair grows (or when the weather changes), you have to discover products that work for it all over again. Deeper sigh.
That was the case when my hair grew like a weed (tips here!) over the summer! Come Fall, my beloved product recommendations weren’t working so great any more. No matter how much I moisturized my hair, I feel like it STAYED dry. I asked everyone I know with natural hair for an explanation, and many let me know a change in length and temperature could necessitate a totally new regimen.
So what’s a Glamazon to do? Yep, go back to that product graveyard.
There, I discovered a natural hair find that had been collecting dust for ages: Jane Carter Solution leave-in conditioner.
The naturally-based conditioner has essential oils, shea butter and vitamins that literally brought my hair back to life after the winter air left it for dead (Scrappy’s Mom’s voice).
I literally dumped it all over my hair and voila! It looked healthy, moisturized, strong, shiny, glamazing. I came downstairs screaming to my roommate “OMG, look what this conditioner did to my hair!”
I was completely sold.
Since then, I’ve been using it like it’s golden elixir mixed with Beyonce Creole fairy dust from heaven, and my curls have never looked better.
And I LOVE that Jane Carter has a travel-size kit for all the jet-setting girls that will be going away for the holiday.
The Natural & Curly Hair Essentials Kit is chock full of travel-size bottles of these amaze products (yes, I’ve tried them all):
- 2 oz. Hydrating Invigorating Shampoo SLS-Free: This sulfate-free shampoo employs humectants to help your hair hold more moisture with an added hint of peppermint that wakes up your scalp.
- 2 oz. Nutrient Replenishing Conditioner: Contains ingredients that permanently bond to your hair’s cortex, leaving it stronger with greater elasticity.
- 2 oz. Revitalizing Leave-In Conditioner: Seals in vital panthenol & humectants and acts as a protective barrier against heat styling & sun damage.
- 2 oz. Wrap & Roll: The best soft mousse, setting and wrapping product available on the market today; dries clean and soft without any residue.
- 1 oz. Curl Defining Cream: A lightweight, all-natural curl cream formulated to lengthen and define your natural curl pattern while drying to a soft, shiny, bouncy finish.
- 1 oz. Nourish & Shine: A blend of all-natural vitamins and essential oils that completely melt in your hair and add amazing shine without leaving hair greasy or limp.
Literally, all you need to have your hair looking amazing on vacation or when you go visit family! It costs $20 and is available here.
Since I compensate for my product whoredom by sharing them with you guys, I’m giving away one travel-ready Jane Carter Natural & Curly Hair Essentials Kit to a lucky reader!

I first went natural for medical reasons and I've tried several products over the years, none of them delivered and some were a temp fix. Jane Carter Solutions where the the only products that has begin to repair and grow my hair. So with the essentials kit I would share it with my mom who has psoriasis and try the products I haven't been able to get.

I am in love with the leave-in conditioner, it's a gift from the heavens :)
I need this when I go out of the country and I have to make sure that my hair looks as fab as my clothes!
I am in love with the leave-in conditioner, it's so good!
OMG…I must say that I absolutely love Jane Carter products. I use the wrap and roll and the curl defining cream at least twice a week. If I win, I will be wearing these products to work, when going out on the town, at home—literally everywhere. I am actually going on vacation to Costa Rica on January 2nd (shout out to Caravan Tours). If I win the timing will be perfect. I really hope you choose me. If you get a chance, please check out my Jane Carter product review on YouTube. My YouTube name is Christianlady777.
Merry Christmas!

I have been wanting to try Jane Carter products since the beginning of my natural hair journey (July 2012). If i win it, I will be taking it with me on a trip to Vegas! I don't currently have any products that are travel size, so this would be PERFECT!
Where would I take this it? Everywhere!!!!
