There comes a time in almost every naturals’ life when they wake up in the middle of the night a think, “It’s time to dye your hair.” After more than ten years of being natural, I finally hit that point a few months ago. I made an appointment at the hair salon and transformed my dark brown hair into fiery ginger coils. I love my new color, but no one told me that dying my hair would change everything about my texture and porosity, leaving my mane with completely new needs.
Soon after my color transformation, my hair looked frizzy, felt aggressively dehydrated, and my once springy coils looked limp. So I began the hunt for a product that would prevent frizz and keep my hair moisturized. After trying out what felt like almost every hair product under the sun, I was gifted Mizani 25 Miracle Milk. This lightweight leave-in has a cult-like following, and for a good reason. It more than lives up to its name because this milk works miracles—don’t believe me? Read on to find out how this leave-in transformed my hair.
What Does Mizani Miracle Milk Do?
Mizani 25 Miracle Milk Leave-in Conditioner contains 25 essential benefits to leave you with moisturized hair for days to come. With a combination of fennel seed oil and sustainably sourced coconut oil, nourishment is the primary benefit of this lightweight leave-in. The miracle milk’s purpose is to hydrate, prime, and strengthen your hair—talk about multifaceted!
While it is a leave-in conditioner, this product does so much more than just condition. With added heat protection, it’s perfect to use right before blow-drying your hair and is excellent for all hair types. You can even use this product as a deep conditioner for when you need some extra hydration.
Can You Use Mizani 25 Miracle Milk On Dry Hair?
Given all it can do, it should come as no surprise that this hair milk can be used on all hair types as well as wet or dry hair. When using it as a leave-in conditioner, it is recommended to use it on damp hair after shampoo and conditioner but before detangling, because it helps detangle too. You can also use Mizani 25 Miracle Milk on dry hair as a style refresher when your hair needs a little mid-week boost to have a good hair day. You can pump some product into your hands and work it through your hair or spray the product generously using its nozzle.
How I Use Mizani 25 Miracle Milk In My Hair Routine
This product is a lazy girl’s dream. Very quickly, Mizani 25 Miracle Milk has become one of my staples. I am not a fan of hours-long wash days, especially when it’s the weekend and I have last-minute plans. What I love the most about this product is how little effort it takes to apply, especially for a 4C girl like me. All you do is spray it onto clean hair, detangle, and style your hair as usual, which makes it perfect for my low-key wash day routine. I want to get my hair done as fast as possible but still reap the benefits of a more thorough hair care regimen.
To begin my routine, I shampoo and deep condition my hair. Then I use the LOC method to lock moisture into my hair. Mizani 25 Miracle Milk is the perfect leave-in for this method. A little goes a long way, but on wash day, I like to saturate my strands with the milk before applying other products and allowing my hair to air dry.
What I love most about Mizani 25 Miracle Milk is the spray formula. Unlike most leave-in conditioners, this one has a spray nozzle instead of a pump or just a jar. As a flight attendant, I spend most of my time on the go with no room for stops; this product has been an absolute blessing when I need a one-and-done product that will keep up with my lifestyle. It’s easy to pack in your luggage when the fear of the cover twisting off and leave-in ending up all over your clothes is non-existent.
Mizani’s 25 Miracle Milk ensures that I don’t spend my days off wearing a head wrap because my hair is secretly full of deep conditioning underneath. Since I’ve started using it, there has been a noticeable difference in the look and feel of my strands. Whether my hair is in an afro, twists, braids, or under a wig cap, it has never been more moisturized! Now I can take down a protective style with ease knowing my hair will be manageable and soft to the touch. While I still struggle with dryness, my curls have come a long way, and there is minimal breakage after taking out my twists or any other short-term protective styles.
Mizani 25 Miracle Milk has gained a new fan because I would not know what to do without this product. My hair is regaining the strength, shine, and moisture it once had. Mizani 25 Miracle Milk has shortened my wash day routine, helped redefine and moisturize my curls, and leaves more space in my carry-on because it’s the only hair product I need.
