Protein overload is something I fear with all of my heart. But, at the same time, my hair has been responding so well to the protein. What's a girl to do? There's only one solution and that's to ramp up moisture levels! We all need moisture now more than ever. The dry air is wreaking havoc on our skin and hair. Without the help of humidity, my typical moisturizer just didn't seem to be cutting like it did before.
Since DRC 28 provided my hair with so much strength, it only seemed natural that I seek out the line to see if they offered a product to amp up moisture levels. Off I went to Amazon to search. The first result was a moisturizing product that was rated a full five stars! Immediately I checked out the reviews to see what others had to say.

I brought this product because of the reviews - the cost did not matter I just needed it to work! I was really surprised with how soft and manageable it made my hair. I recommend for perm, natural, weaved and under wig hair.

I have to say I've been using this product for YEARS. I have tight curly hair but not kinky. (3 something) This keeps all my moisture locked in. Sometimes for more definition I might use a curly creme or whipped creme but ALWAYS ALWAYS put PCA FIRST. I love it b/c it protects my hair, keeps my scalp moist ( I never have dandruff or dry scalp thanks to this) and avoids that "Crispy" texture I may get from the curly creme alone. Also mostly, I use PCA alone b/c it's perfect. I use it for my boys. They have short curly hair, not as soft as mine, and the PCA always softens them up righteously! I recommend 1000%. Nothing else out there is like it!

My husband introduced this product to me. He has been using it for many years. I have been using Dudley's PCA Moisturizer for 3 years. Its' creamy formula moisturizes the hair without leaving it oily, greasy or weighted down. I have very fine hair and use a texturizer. I cannot let my hair get dry or frizzy. Dudley's Moisturizer does the job well.
I have used a number of other products, but they dry my hair or do not work as well . This one is, by far, the best!

This product is by far the best product for moisture retainment in my hair! My beautician has been using it for 15 years and recommended I continue with it. I have felt amazing results with daily use of this product! My hair feels healthy and everyone is constantly telling me it looks healthy!
The official product name is "Dudley's MOISTURE RETAINER". Could a product really claim to not only moisturize the hair, but to keep it in a moisturized state? That's my biggest qualm with most moisturizers. They feel good at first, but hours later (or the next day) your hair is back to feeling dry again.
But, since I had such a wonderful experience with DRC 28, I didn't hesitate to order. Days later the package arrived and I immediately squeezed a small amount in my hand. The consistency was thick. I could feel myself frown as I wondered if this thick cream would create loads of build up. I rubbed my hands together and noticed how easily the product dissolved in my palms.
As I applied the moisture retainer in my hair, I knew. I knew this moisturizer would be an instant favorite. The slight bit of dryness from protein overload vanished. My hair felt instantly soft and moisturized. But here's the kicker. My hair continued to feel moisturized even as time past. Seriously ladies. No other product has trapped in moisture in my hair like Dudley's Moisture Retainer. The results actually stick! This doesn't mean that I'll be moisturizing less than I should, but it's an incredible feeling to randomly touch my hair and feel softness....not stiffness.
Dudley's Moisture Retainer is a true gem. A product that actually lives up to its name deserves all the praise. Even though I've reapplied the thick cream, there's no signs of buildup. I rarely take advantage of Amazon's return policy but I made a promise to myself, at purchase, that if it failed to adequately moisturize my hair, Dudleys' would be going right back. But this is definitely a keeper. If your go to moisturizer isn't doing a decent job of helping your hair keep the moisture in. Give Dudley's Moisture Retainer a chance to win your hair over!
Well there goes my "no spend" January haha.. after reading this the item immediately made it's way to my amazon account haha. thank you for sharing - i can't wait to try :)
ReplyDeleteHow interesting! I have Dudley's DRC 28 and have loved it for a long time. I havent used it in about a year, but after reading your reviews, it may be time to again.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to give this a go. My hair is high porosity and looses moisture very fast.
Do you still relax? If so i was reading on olexplex's website that their product can be mixed directly into the relaxer. Have you tried this?
