So I couldn't wait to sample White Sands Orchids Oil on my hair. Packed inside a sleek, clear glass jar it can be used on damp or dry hair, and promised to deliver shine and moisture to my winter-parched relaxed mane. The only down-side? It's made with Clyclomethicone, which won't fare well on women with locks or natural hair, though it promises to reduce frizz in naturally curly tresses.
But according to hair experts if you have chemicals—like a relaxer or color—"Cones" will provide a protective layer between your hair and heat. But if you don't, it might actually block moisture. So for our chemically treated hair friends, this one is for you: One quarter-sized amount smoothed over my relaxed and colored short 'do gave me instant, yet long-lasting shine with a fragrance that was sweet, light yet totally sexy. Now who can ask for anything better than that? $20, available at Whitesandsproducts.com.
