I have always heard great things about Lottabody products. I remember my mother using the Lottabody setting lotion on my hair in middle school. I use to rock a roller set faithfully lol. My mother has been a long time user and fan of Lotta Body products. To this day Lottabody is one of favorite brands to use. When I came across the natural hair display of new products by Lottabody I knew I had to try them. The first thing that drew me to this new arsenal of products was the packaging, the pretty decent ingredients, the price and of course the smell. Can you say YUM :) At first glance I knew that the Moisturize Me Curl&Style Milk would be my favorite product to use. So along with the curl&style milk I ended up picking up the Shape Me Custard Gelee and the Control Me Edge Control. I've been working on how to use these products on my type 4 hair for the past few weeks and here is my break down. 

Moisturize Me Curl&Style Milk:

I knew this product would be a good product on my hair. See the way my hair is set up.... It's really really thick type 4 hair. It has a personality of it's own and doesn't play nice with all products. Normally I'm pretty good at selecting products that work well on my hair. When I started using this product I washed and condition my hair and applied it in section as directed on the bottle. Normally I use a leave-in conditioner before a style product but I wanted to see how well this product worked as directed. I simply two strand twist in some what chunky twist. I took down my hair the next morning and I got a very light definition. My hair was soft and full. Unfortunately, it rained cats and dogs so my hair went into moisture absorb over load My hair just fluffed into a super fro. Which is my go to look any way. Over all it was very easy to use. I LOVE the pump on the bottle!!!! It's something different and most natural hair products don't come with a pump. I love the consistency, the smell and how smooth it went on to my hair. I can see myself buying this product again. 

Shape Me Up Custard Gelee:

I have had my battles with finding a curling custard that works for my hair. This one I'm still working with. I used quite a few times so far. I've used it in a twist out and gave very light definition. I tried it styling my hair in a wash and go it didn't work for my hair. This custard is too light for my hair. One problem I came across it has glycerin like most custards. The thing with glycerin and my hair is if a product has too much glycerin it flakes and and becomes coated or hard. I did get some flaking when trying to use the curl&style milk with this custard MAJOR NO NO. I did get some curl but not what I was use to using my normal styling product. Over all I am still working with this product to see how I can get it to work. I aways find out how to use a product. This one is still a work in progress on my hair. 

Control Me Edge Control:

Now I'm not big on edge controls. I've went through my fair share of them. Some good some very bad, but this one was refreshing to use. It's very light on my hair which is good in my case. I don't like a lot of product on my hair line. This product is is very light once applied. I only used a little bit of this on my edges and it was easy to use. It wasn't really sticky or gummy like most EC'S on the market. Of course the smell was great. It gave a nice hold. Not the strongest hold but that was fine with me. no flaking, no residue, no white cast (since this has a blue color base). This is very light on the hair. Not bad it's definitely a product to keep on hand if your like me and don't care for the heavy, sticky, oily edge controls. This product does contain parabens but they are listed at the bottom, but I'm not major on ingredients so it's fine with me. 

Overview 
I like the line. It has a few downs i.e. a little too light at times and the glycerin factor on my hair. I definitely see a co wash, deep conditioner and leave in conditioner being added to this line some where down the line. I have to work out the kinks with the custard. Over all a good line of products so far. I HIGHLY recommend the Moisturize Me Curl&Style Milk that is my favorite out of all the products I've tried. There are two more revamped products I haven't tired from Lottabody that I will check out later. Lottabody did a good job on the new products.  I'm looking forward to see what the company does next.
