So today was wash day. Woke up at 6am to wash and then do some reading before my first class. Did my usual routine: suave naturals cowash, l'oreal vive pro nutri gloss (I thank my lucky stars for botticellibabe on nc.com every time I use this stuff) to condition, detangle, finger comb when I'm out of the shower, rake in/scrunch leave in, scrunch in KCCC. I've only tried Kinky Curly's Knot Today, the companion leave in for Kinky Curly Curling Custard.
I can get the Knot Today for like $15 a bottle (with shipping) with some internet searching. Giovanni Direct Leave In costs $7.99 a bottle at Target, Rite Aid, or Whole Foods, and it has no shipping costs. So GDLI wins on the basis of price.
What about the results, you ask? One compliment so far, and it's only 9:30am :) I'm very happy with the giovanni. My hair feels even softer than with the KCKT, and it prevented some of the crunch of the KCCC (there's no way to avoid it, and it's kind of fun to scrunch out the scrunch to reveal beautiful curls, but this took some of the crunch away). So on the basis of it being a better price and having a better result, I'm going to rotate between my KCKT and GDLI until my KCKT runs out (darn it, I just remembered I have another bottle on order). I also need to get more GDLI!
