  • Where do you get the products?

  • you look like gina from martin lol

  • @chessica450 sure!!!

  • can u show how u did to hav da mini curls at da end? ?? plllzzz

  • @frantzsia stop relaxing your hair .....

  • DAMN You have mad HAIR!!!!!!!.... [ What should i do if my edges aren't growing?!?]

  • @ajd3000...I know right!..

  • What is with all the crazy questions?? Are you natural? Is this for boys?? I can only think of one products on the planets that is gender specific and it's for menstruation. Also, it is very apparent that she's natural since all of her videos are mainly about proper hair care and achieving natural styles. Please read people. Just use the sense God gave you.

  • is that your natural hair ? or a weave ?

  • I love this stuff. I recommended it to my sister and aunt. They liked it too. I'm natural (4 b), my sis and aunt are relaxed.

  • Is this for boys aswell? Or only girls with long hair

  • @Ideaz4U2 Boys too. My brother and I use it- as a matter of fact he introduced me to it

  • This product was recommended to me before I did the big chop. It had rave reviews, but I don't like it at all. It's too heavy for my hair and I tried passing it on to my teenage daughter who also doesn't care for it. It's taking up space in the cabinet at this point because I hate throwing things away. Your hair looks great, especially compared to the results that I ended up with.

  • I love this stuff! If you old hair, for weaves or a wig it will bring it back to life don't waste money buying new hair buy some cantu its hair crack :-)

  • it makes sense that the cantu shea butter leave-in will NOT work with gels designed to help retain curl definition because cantu is meant to help "detangle" and get your hair in a straight mode if you will...styling gels are meant to leave hair with a "curly" tight look...the two work "against" each other...nice review anyway;-)

  • i actually love this stuff..but i air dry

  • That's true I tried gel with it and it turned out bad.... flaked like crazy!

  • Haha that's funny. Unrefined shea doesn't actually have a smell until its near rancid. It takes on the smell of what ever its mixed with. Your hair is beautiful.

  • I...WANT...YOUR...HAIR!!!

  • i don't even know how the hell i got here but thumbs up for looking so good.

  • @taren916 just found out tht this product has animal fat in it(pork,fish,etc) ewww NOT natural annnnnd there's acohol in it....I was gonna buy this but I don't eat pork so why put part of it in my hair if u get me ..lol..

  • Cantu and Eco styler do not mix at all.

  • caster oil even ..

  • look if every1 wants to get thick lovely hair with just one product i would say use a tub of HOLLYWOOD BEAUTY CATER OIL TREATMENT WITH MINK OIL thats whats on the front by the way it has everything in it like caster oil,mink oil,sweet almond oil,jojoba oil,laonlin,coco butter and some extra good stuff that im not gonna say cause proply not many peoploe heard of them but they are good and its all in white and green not expesive and you can buy it off amazon :)

  • Your hair is freegin' AWESOME!!!!

  • Thanks for the review. I've been doing a lot of reading and research and have found that Cantu Shea Butter is a good protein leave in conditioner and not something that you would use on a regular basis it should be used when your hair needs protein support.

  • im jst obssessed with ur hair can we please swap :P hehe

  • is this good on relaxed hair?

  • HI Taren! Iove how knowledble you are on curly hair. I have curly hair and for a while I didn't color it. However, I started to get highlights and my hair just didin't like it. I have stopped it and now I just want my hair color back. For a long time my hair just changed and is not as shinny. I have used oil treatments and they help, but i don't see much results. I have very thin hair, but curly. I dodn't know if this Cantu leave in conditioner will way my hair down.

  • so do ya really like it or is it like a maybe I'll use it product?lol

  • u look so pretty!

  • my hair is so soft and it feels good.

  • Shucks,i just seen it lol okok im sorry, my uncle came over then i pased the video, by the time i came back i forgot i was in the middle of the vid lol

  • I was wondering, how do you apply the shea to your hair? Do you section it and put a little on each section? Or do you put some in your hands and rub it in your hair all at once?

  • I dont care if it isnt natural i carry that bottle with me all the time I love it ;D !

  • I tried Cantu Shea Butter Shampoo, conditioner and leave in and I don't like it. It leaves my hair very dry the deep conditioner does not moisturize like Creme of Nature. I think I will go back to it

  • There is a product that I've used that works well as an overlay for Cantu. It's GVP Cream at Sally's. It can be used by itself, but I usually find my hair dry and less defined rockin it solo - so I combine it with my Cantu when I want XTRA definition! Great video - I'll be checking more of them out.

  • I just bought this! I will be usnig tonight..hopefully works out well

  • What about the curls product? How do you feel about that? Also, have you ever tried Carol's Daughter products?

  • @Reeboo88 Thanks so much

  • Thank you for this video. I wish I had seen this a few weeks ago. When I first saw the reaction occurring in my hair. I thought it was just me, and that I was loosing my mind. But now I know that it's the cantu. Thank you.

  • 1st what is the song playing in the beginning?2nd you are very beautiful lol

  • I use Cantu an I love it. However, I don't wear my hair out I use a little oil as a base and Worlds of Curls then Eco styler gel " the pink one" The I grab a brush an I have the prettiest slicked back ponytail ever. I guess you just have to try it. I started using Cantu two years ago so my hair is use to it an loves it.

  • Your hair is very pretty. But I think the reason for the mixture problem is within the ingredients (Trimethylsilyamodimethicone) that is probably one of the reasons why

  • I REALLY love your hair..very pretty :)

  • You can use this with gel but thats the only thing that it will work with. You ABSOLUTELY CANNOT use oil with it, or any other creams with it. I learned the hard way...

  • You say you don't like the heavily defined curls, but I'd like to see your hair heavily defined for a different look!

  • Hi Taren! I was wondering what your nationality was

  • hey, I am a relative newbie at being natural, literally like only 13 months and a few weeks, lol. And I was wondering after seeing this particular video, what you would recommend for maximizing definition through a more harmonious pairing of products. I.E., what two products together have given you more definition, but not too precise of one. I too feel like I'm of the median nature of people, I think I'd like definition to my curls, without it being too perfect. But more definition, lots.

  • do u ike the mixed chicks productts?

  • Hello Taren the leave in is great for detangling and softening however the cantu pomade is thick a bit heavy for your type of hair maybe for someone with more course or tighter curls. Sorry u didnt get the defined look but your hair stills look great.

  • My experience with Cantu Shea leave-in is that it seems to sit on top of my hair. Although my curls were more defined, they felt dry and crunchy and my hair actually started to shed!!! Maybe I used too much?? (I can be heavy handed with products) How does Cantu compare to Shea Moisture? I'm desperate to find a leave-in that works for my hair. I just got my Mixed Chicks samples in the mail...maybe this will be it. BTW: I still want your gorgeous hair! :o)

  • Hi taren I wanted to let you know that I am natural and I use cantu shea butter daily on my hair and to get the definition of curls I combine tresemme flawless curls curl hydration. I found that this is the only product that will mix well with the cantu.

  • Love your hair!!!!! I use to use the Cantu a while ago back in the early 2000s before it was a hot youtube topic. This product is old.  When I used it it left a reside and I had lots of white flakes. I think I back then was leaving too much conditioner in my hair (not washing it all out) so the Cantu would not take. Definintely use it on freshly washed hair and then maybe put a light oil on top of it to seal in moisture!!!!!!

  • your hair is beautiful! I love it it looks very full

  • does this strenghten the hair?

  • wat a beauty

  • Girllll pleaseee! Your hair looks GREAT with whatever you use on it. Kccc, mixed chicks, Eco Styler your hair alwaysss looks amazing. You just have unique beautiful hair! And by the way it looks beautiful in this vid!

  • damn u sexi

    

  • I use the Cantu Shea Butter with Eco and yes it doesn't mix well with any gels! However, I like the products! I love your volume, your hair is BEAUTIFUL!

  • WHAT ARE THE FIRST STEP OF BECOMING NATURAL. WHY DO YOU HAVE TO DO A CHOP AS YOU PUT???

  • i love the grow strong strengthning treatment. i used to use it as a leave in and put a shower cap on at night while it was still wet...it says you can do that on the back of the container.but i just style it in the morning with out putting anymore product in my head...its amazing..you should def try it out

  • Your hair is beautiful!

  • omg you are so beautiful.

  • I recently saw this video, i have wonderful results with the cantu leave in conditioner and aloe vera gel. fruit of the earth, priceing is anywhere from $1.50 to $3.00 walmart family dollar...the bottle says for daily skin care....works wonders on the hair...try it if you like

  • i LUV ur hair lol and it looks very prttyyy

  • yeah cantu doesn't mix well with ANYTHING!

  • Ure a doll...great hair.

  • Hello Taren. I love your videos. I have a quick question. I have type 3b/3c hair type and I have not relaxed my hair in over a year 1/2. I have been straightening (Flat Iron) my hair on a monthly basis and now my natural hair will not curly into my natural curl.

    I have stop flat ironing my hair and would like to have my natural curl. Any suggestions?

  • @Mrsnesi08 Wow, sorry to hear that happened to your curls... Well you already did the first step which is not flatiron for a long while... Now I would suggest getting your best deep conditioner and deep condition for about twice a week for the next four weeks.. Deep condition with something that is rich in protein.. Or even take it a step further and use something natural like and Avacado mixed with some sweet almond oil would be excellent :-)

  • @Mrsnesi08 the same thing happen to me the back and the middle of my hair is curl but the front wont curl, =[

  • @Mrsnesi08 use the aphogee protein treatment =) taren has a video on it

  • I tried Cantu Shea butter when I was transitioning and my hair felt greasy, I didn't like it. Fortunately I didn't throw it away. Once I BC'd I get a whole different result with my natural hair. I love it to death. but I don't use gels though. Every get I have ever put in my hair has turned my hair to a brillo pad.

  • Your outfit and earrings complement each other very well.

  • i love this product... it works great for me for twist outs..

  • I love this product! It is very light weight & its all i need along with ny cocnut oil. I see what you mean about the naked look on your hair though. Maybe if you applied more it will produce different results.

  • do you use the mixed chicks with the eco styler gel?

  • Yes, I do actually.. I love that combo :-)

  • what do you do to your hair at night? great video also xxoxo

  • Thanks... Well ever since I got my satin pillow case I don't have to do anything to my hair at night! I love that... No bonnet, no twisting, no pony tail... My hair just lays freely on the pillow and I wake up with no crazy frizz... Or sometimes I wear my hood band if I don't feel like have my hair all over the place (out of my face)...

  • I heard about the Cantu Leave In Conditioner before, so I went out and bought it, just to try it out (and find a cheaper & equally effective product than what I use now). I have seen great reviews, but it dried out my hair terribly, frizzed it up completely (I have 3c curls) and the curls aren't defined and I believe that over time this will dry and later break my hair (my prediction after 1st use). But your hair seems to take the product in well! To each their own! Silicones aren't my friends

  • I know that this has nothing to do with this video but your makeup looks so beautiful, its not the same as your makeup tutorial video, you should really do another makeup tutorial.=) love the curlys btw.

  • try adding an oil pre poo to your hair especially the ends. then wash/co-wash then apply the cantue. it defines better that way in my experience with my daughter's hair who has a similar texture as yours.

  • U should do a haul video of the stuff you get form sephora!

  • I love the fact that you just keep it simple when you use these products

  • I wish we had sun.  It is cold and rainy here in NC.

  • i used cantu shea butter while transitioning & loved it but i ran out of the product and havent got more

  • Hey Taren, I was wondering what products you use to clarify your hair?

  • great review. u should do a haul vid on the products u get from sephora

  • What about using it with a serum? Does that make a difference?

  • Taren i luv luv Volume to. And i am on my way to that Volume but i have not reached it as of yet. Rock the Joan Hair Girl it is so you lol!

  • i love it

  • I used to use Cantu Shea Butter religiously for about 2 years until I just decided to get unrefined shea butter, and I never looked back!!! I still have a full of my Cantu!

  • Great video review. I also thought the smell could be a lot better. I ended up returning it back to Wal-mart, to stinky for me.

  • I tried it a couple years ago and hated it it caused me so much breakage and shedding I will never use cantu again. Maybe it was too much protein for me

  • wow i cant believe u got these results!! i use it about every other day and it defines my curls like crazy!! i have millions of little ringlets, i love my results. and u get better results with continued use. maybe u should try using a little more product per section. more is more lol.

  • does sallys carry the cantu shea butter?

  • Comment removed

  • I tried the Cantu Shea Butter Leave-in a few times over the summer. It was a bad idea. Or maybe the bad idea was using it over my water/glycerin 50/50 mix.

    My hair was a greaseball. Melted in the sun. I wouldn't mix it with anything.

    Cantu for twists felt *amazing*. My hair has never felt like that before. Of course, I later learned that it wasn't my hair I was feeling, but the slick film of dimethicone on top. lol.

    I think its okay temporarily. Took sulfates to wash out tho.

  • Was this day one or day 2 hair? I like the fact that the natural light hit your hair.. it did look soft and full of volume but not as defined like you said. Love your channel <3 Have a wonderful weekend!

  • Excellent review. Your hair look gorgeous though.

    Can you do a puff? I'm just curious of how it will look on you :)

  • I have used this product....what i can say is that it cant b used everydat due to it being taky....when i had my hair flatironed by a proffesional they had a hard time getting the cantu out of my hair....buyer be aware!

  • are those earrings Kenneth Cole? Your goregous. I have a bottle of Mixed chicks leave in if your interested.

    Thanks for sharing

    ~keep it real
