Got email for the wen tsv. Which do you suggest

I'm new to wen and I just got the email for the tsv and I. Unsure which one to order. I've only been using wen a couple weeks. I've tried almond mint and I just got fig. My hair is thinning but naturally curly. I've never tried any others. Not sure if I should just order fig or try something else. My hair tends to. Be dry and get frizzy Any advice from more experienced wen users

I've only had time to try the fig a couple times but what I am wondering is if it's for ethnic hair which I am not will it end up being to heavy or is fig the universal best for dry curly hair ?

I am Irish/Italian & have very curly hair that is dry. I have used Fig for years and added 613 to the mix when it came out 3 years ago. Fig is perfect for curly hair and this kit with the 613 is a bonus for the price. What a deal!!

Tea Tree would be great IMO. I don't have thinning hair but I have experienced faster hair growth and new hair growth using TT CC on my scalp.

Tea Tree was my first thought to add to your routine as well.

Thank you. I'm finding all the options overwhelming . Not sure if I need styling gels oils etc seems like a lot to figure out. Does anyone just use the cleansing conditioner as leave it without all the other ? I guess there is a learning curve Smiley Happy

Re: Got email for the wen tsv. Which do you suggest

With the new curly hair movements I am finding there is more to using products based on hair type than skin tone. I am African American (what the world considers me) but my genetic makeup is that, Native American, Irish and French. My hair as a result is a curly type 3b/c and Fig is my go to for moisturizing my curly hair. Tea Tree works best on my dry scalp and POM (when I want more bounce from straightened hair) and 613 (deep treating) are added based on the results I want. Seasonals are added for fun and scent usually at the end of my washing and as leave in.

I just started using WEN last November. I only use the CC and styling creme. I used to use a litte CC as a leave-in, but discovered that my hair actually feels better without it. I ordered the TSV because I do want to try the Replenishing Treatment Mist as well as 613. Don't feel any need for any other products, but it depends on you and your hair.

I do think Styling Creme is a must if you heat style, as it protects your hair from the heat.

Re: Got email for the wen tsv. Which do you suggest

I think it depends--do you prefer either Fig or SAM? How do they perform in your hair?

My hair is only wavy but I love Fig for the moisture. However, I also love both Tea Tree and 613--TT for the scalp benefits and 613 because it is so moisturizing for me. So, if you like Fig, the TSV is a good buy. If you want to try Tea Tree, that's a good choice, too. (One warning, though; the more popular formulas seem to sell out in the TSVs early, so don't wait until the last minute to get your order in!)

And I used just the CCs for quite a long time (I also found the product selection kind of overwhelming). A friend sent me a bottle of the styling creme so I have been using that (with good results) for the last two months or so. I don't use any of the other products. I'm interested in the oils but waiting for a deal; I'm also interested in the glossing serum but I don't think that's really a necessary thing. I think you're fine if you just focus on finding the right CC for now. Smiley Happy
