Isoplus Review

In this post, I'm reviewing 3 Isoplus products to see how they aid me in my straightening process to help combat my usual dryness when flat ironing my hair. The products include, Coconut Oil with Ylang Ylang, Tea Tree & Aloe Conditioner, and 24-7 Leave-In Conditioner. You can find more info on each product by visiting the link on each name. And you can check out other Isoplus products, here.

I have 3a/3b, normal-low porosity, low density, fine curls. Here is my hair before, using the products on day 3 hair.

First, I used the Tea Tree conditioner and the Coconut oil prior to shampooing with my normal sulfate shampoo.

I used the tea tree as a scalp conditioner to prevent the usual scalp dryness I get when washing with a sulfate shampoo and straightening. I parted my hair and applied the conditioner to my scalp in sections.

I used the coconut oil as a pre-poo on the length of my hair to infuse moisture, protect my hair from the sulfate shampoo, and to strengthen my hair before straightening. I was sure to coat my ends for the best protection for the most needy part of my hair.

I left in the products for about 1 hour then proceeded to wash and deep condition my hair as usual. I noticed much less breakage after I rinsed the shampoo out. Usually my hair would feel stripped and rough but not this time. I'll usually experience a lot of breakage when trying to apply conditioner but that was reduced to a few broken hairs.

After rinsing out the deep conditioner, I let my hair get mostly dry then I sprayed in the 24-7 Leave-In to used it as a heat protectant and moisturizer. I then went on to straighten my hair and I finished with silky, shiny, soft hair. :)

Overall Review

• Coconut Oil with Ylang Ylang

I can definitely smell the ylang ylang in this and it smells nice, not too overwhelming but noticeable. The consistency feels like a grease/oil product would and it applies smoothly and is easy to coat any part of your hair. I love this as a sealer for my ends and I would have used it on my scalp if coconut oil didn't irritate my scalp. When sealing my ends, this absorbs easily and doesn't weight down my hair or look to greasy. It didn't seem to attract as much lint as I expected, which is great. I also used this on someones braids to moisturize the hair and scalp and it made their braids look shiny and their scalp looked healthy and moisturized.

• Tea Tree & Aloe

This has a very nice, light scent and also has a grease/oil consistency. This was very easy to apply to scalp and it coated easily without needing too much. I loved this for my scalp. I've always had very dry scalp and this helped a bunch. My scalp didn't feel clogged and my hair didn't feel weighed down or dirty after a few days. I usually have a problem with itching and this did away with that, thanks to the tea tree and aloe. A lot of scalp treatments can irritate my scalp and cause a psoriasis flare up but this didn't irritate me at all. It was very soothing and added much needed shine to my roots.

• 24/7 Leave-In

This leave-in has a nice soapy smell and a thin, watery consistency. It sprays out evenly onto hair without leaving a sticky feeling and doesn't even weigh down my super fine hair. It's super light and it added moisture to my hair without making it hard. It made my hair feel soft and fluffy. This is great to use as a heat protectant or under another product.
