Mixed Chicks Product Review

Hello all!!!
I'm back to do a product review on Mixed Chicks! Now I've made posts on products that I make that I LOVE to use and usually work better than the products I buy, they're also cheaper! I was asked to do a review on Mixed Chicks because when I first began my journey to natural-ness, I LIVED off of Mixed Chicks! I absolutely LOVED their products because they defined my curls as I was impatient to wait as see how my hair would curl. I used their Gentle Clarifying Shampoo, De-tangling Deep Conditioner and their Leave-in conditioner, the leave-in being my favorite.Their products left my hair full of moisture and my curls loved it! The shampoo wasn't anything special to me but the deep conditioner left my hair silky soft and the leave-in moisturized my hair everyday. When I first began my natural journey, I thought I had to use everything in any given product line (as I now know to use whatever works the best). I also did the same thing with Kinky Curly's line. To this day I would buy Mixed Chicks' leave-in and deep conditioner if I was in a bind and didn't have any ingredients to make my own products. The only thing that turned me off about their products were the prices; the shampoo (10oz) was $11.99, the deep conditioner  (8oz) was $10.99 and the leave-in (10oz) was $16.99. The prices began to be a little much because the budget of a college student is near to non-existent lol! Luckily there was a beauty supply store near my (Angie's Beauty Supply in Austell, GA) that sold Mixed Chicks' whole line and I didn't have to pay for shipping, the also offered a kit that came with the shampoo, deep conditioner, leave-in and gloss and shine hair silk ($11.99 for 1.7 oz) for $50, free of the shipping charges. Hope that helped! :)
