PRODUCT REVIEW: nuNAAT Karite Special Shea Butter products

Ok, please blame me for sitting on this review for so long! I didn't think it was possible for me to find one whole system that works for my notoriously dry hair. I was sent this product to sample and I am pleased to say it is my official product to use on my hair. nuNAAT Karite Special Shea Butter Products are the best products if you have very dry or porous hair! This stuff just works. If you have 4b/c hair, you need to read this entire post!

This nourishing formula is so thick, creamy, and heavy, that you hair will thank you when you finish conditioning it. Like I said, I didn't believe that one product line would have everything I needed. But it really gave me silky/shiny hair. I know I sound like a commmercial, but when you find a product line that really works, you get excited.

Better than that, each product in the line costs $7 or less (depending on retailers). Essentially, you can buy the whole line for $35! You know that's a steal for haircare products targeted to NATURAL hair. Here's a rundown on what's available in the line:
  • Karite Creamy Shampoo- Never a fan of shampoo for my 4b hair, this shampoo changed my mind.This shampoo is very moisturizing. It's very weighty and has good slip. My hair felt moisturized right after I rinsed it.
  • Karite Conditioner- The conditioner is very creamy. I use the conditioner to de-tangle my hair while in the shower. It's also moisturizing enough to use as for a co-wash.
  • Karite Intensive Mask- The intensive mask is the best part of the system! I use this deep conditioner every week. My tiny coils pop and spring  after I rinse my hair. The company suggests a weekly treatment for best results.
  • Karite Leave-in Detangler- OK, so I am ADDICTED to the leave-in de-tangler!! It's my secret weapon. The smooth, thick, and slippery conditioner coats your strands with moisturizing goodness. I use it when I two-strand twist my hair or when I prepare my hair to be worn in an Afro.
  • Karite Anti-Frizz Thermo Active- Lastly, if you choose to blow dry your hair, the Anti-Frizz Thermo Active formula continues to coat your hair in the good stuff it needs. When I used my blow dryer, my hair was very soft and felt moisturized (not greasy) .
I'm sure you are thinking, is there anything I don't like about this line?  I like the way it smells, kinda like chocolate and cookies, but if you use the entire line at one time, you will have a heavy perfume presence around you. I know some people don't like their products to be heavily scented, but if that's the price I have to pay to have shiny moisturized hair - i'll take it!

PROS:
  • Great for 4b/c, very dry, or porous hair
  • Great value for product
  • Great slip, very moisturizing
  • Available at local drugstores and online
CONS:
  • Heavily scented
  • Not good for oily hair
 You can find nuNAAT Karite Shea Butter Products at Walgreen's. Actually, the line is BOGO to Walgreen's til the 19th!

I bought the leave-in detangler after reading your post. I do wonder about how it's holding up over time because I noticed it has alcohol in the ingredients. I haven't used it yet.
Thanks for the review.
