Product Review for the Budget Friendly

 
For those of you who are very pocket cautious and do not care about namebrand products iii Sisters of Nature have come to the rescue. I have had the opportunity to try two free samples of their products. Their Curling Gelo (compare to Kinky-Curlys Knot today) and also their Sweet Honeyrose Treatment (compare to Miss Jesse's Super Sweetback Treatment).

To be honest I feel some kind of way about companies that market their products on how they are just like or should be compared to another product. In saying this it took me about a month to try these products out. What's with the change of heart? Well, I was feeling like my hair was in need of some products to love and I had been really wanting to try out Kinky-Curly... that's when my hair drawer started to glow.

With that being said... Here are my thoughts on the two products

iii Sisters of Nature: Curling Gelo 8oz. $9.59

Used as: I used it as a leave-in.

Smell: Yummy... It smells candy like, but dies down on your hair.

Color/Texture: It was clear and had a goopy type of feel.

Outcome: On super wet hair- It was awesome. I don't know if it was my deep conditioner (earlier post for the recipe), but it defined my curlies deeper than they already were. It made my twist out look bomb. Hair was hydrated and healthy.
On Dry Hair- No Bueno! Did absolutely nothing, but make it frizz more and puff up. It added light brown dusties to my hair. That last part may have been due to the Eco-Styler I used on my edges.

iii Sisters of Nature Sweet Honeyrose Treatment 8oz. $12.99


Used as: I used it as a styler.

Smell: This smell was also good. I was bubblegum like.

Color/Texture: This was white and creamy.

Outcome: On Wet Hair: It was horrible. As it dried my hair became stiff and crunchy. It was very dry. It felt like a film of dust laid over my strands.
On Dry Hair:  It was Awesome. I can never get in a good dry twistout, but this helped ALOT!


Final thoughts: These two products are great with their pricing. However, I can't get with their marketing campaign. Their products are good in their own right. So I myself will not be purchasing unless I'm really down and out. How about you?
F.Y.I.: I have never tried Kinky-Curly's nor Miss Jessie's products. And for each product I used on freshly washed hair.

So what do you think of iii Sisters and their products?
