finally, i am chiming in about the zenzele product line. it’s an all natural line geared at hair care, body and more. i was given the opportunity to try out their leave in conditioner as well as the shea shea hair souffle’. a big thanks to Nereshte for the opportunity!! so let’s get into it (p.s. it’s pronounced zen-zay-lay)
The Leave in Conditioner:
Claims:
this product should leave your hair feeling soft while being nourished and moisturized. detangles, and enhances the curl pattern of your hair.
Review:
i have to admit, this is an interesting leave-in. it’s a really watery type liquid leave-in that needs a good shaking every now and again. i like that it’s smell is really yummy. the mist of the bottle is light, so if you want a lot you might have to spray for a bit. but that does not in anyway affect it’s performance. i really like it. i’ve been at it now for a good 5 months and it’s nice. i like how it leaves my hair feeling as well i like that it’s very light and can be used well with others. as well the ingredients aren’t bad at all.

The Shea Shea Hair Souffle’
Claims:
this product is supposed to leave the hair soft, moisturized, manageable and healthy.
Review:
it’s an ultra light butter, that is based in aloe vera, which means laced with moisturizing goodness. i liked how light the butter was, it was good for using on hair the next day after wash. well i should say, that’s my experience..my hair tends to react better to products the day after washing, or only when 80% dry after washing. odd, but either way, this butter/souffle’ goes on nicely and is ideal for using over top your twists once installed. as a stand alone butter, maybe not my first pic, but it’s still really nice. and it’s smell is pleasant too.

I have used the leave in conditioner and i have to say I agree with you completely! It’s really great, my hair is so dry and it keeps it soft and it stays soft. I alwas thought things had to heavy and dense to saturate our hair but Zenzele proves that it does not! Six more bottles please!
