If you’re addicted to heat-styling tools or live in a dry environment that causes el pelo to look drier than the Sahara desert you may want to try Motions Salon Hair Care Oil Moisturizer Hair Lotion.

I was a little skeptical about the product when I received a sample from the company’s PR Chicas since I don’t have relaxed, pressed or weaved hair.  And while it’s a great product for those types of pelos, it also does a good job for chicas like me who have medium to coarse hair and over-use heat styling tools but don’t want to spend a ton of $$$ on heat-protectant products.

All you need is a little bit of the product on wet pelo prior to blow-drying to protect it and get smooth and silky melenas.  While the instructions recommend about a dime-size quantity, I would say a little less than that for past-the-shoulder pelo is probably better unless you have a serious case of dryness.   Also, use s-p-a-r-i-n-g-ly along the hairline and roots if you like to wash el pelo once or twice a week.

This product is formulated with shea butter to hydrate, panthenol to strengthen and keratin to protect el pelo from heat damage.  It also comes in oil-free and light-oil variations.
