Conditioner - Sweet Potato Pie Extra Creamy Moisturizing
Gabrielle Rodgers (Madison Heights, Virginia)
Hair Perfection Sweet Potato Pie

“I can’t say enough about this sweet potato pie-inspired hair care line—it’s a total game-changer! The shampoo is incredible; it lathers beautifully and leaves my scalp feeling clean without stripping my hair of its natural oils. The sweet potato pie infusion gives it a rich, nourishing boost that leaves my hair soft and hydrated from the first wash. Plus, the scent is heavenly—it’s warm, comforting, and unique!

The conditioner takes it to the next level. It’s thick, creamy, and so hydrating! My curls feel silky smooth, and detangling is a breeze. It melts into my hair, making it easy to work through even the most stubborn knots.

The LOC (Leave-in, Oil, Cream) system is the perfect finishing touch. The leave-in conditioner keeps my hair moisturized for days, while the oil locks in hydration and adds a beautiful shine. The cream seals everything in and defines my curls without leaving them crunchy or greasy.

I’m beyond impressed with how healthy and vibrant my hair looks and feels. The sweet potato pie ingredients are truly a powerhouse—packed with nourishment and perfect for dry or curly hair. Highly recommend this line for anyone looking to treat their hair to something special!”

My Daughter Loves it!

I purchased this item as a Christmas present for my daughter. She is so beautiful with her hair maintenance regime! She wears her hair naturally without any chemicals and I just wanted to introduce her to Tabs products. Moving forward she will be ordering for herself as she is pleased with these products

I have the oil, shampoo, conditioner and cream! The products keep my son’s hair so moisturized! We love these products! And they smell so yummy!

Curl Enhancing Gel - Whipped Vanilla Cream
Angela Cannon (Atlanta, Georgia)
Miss Maryland-Withstanding the Wind

My daughter, Brie Turner, was recently crowned Miss Black Maryland and she sent Donna's Recipe a video of her using the product during her campaign. I purchased the entire line for her as a Christmas gift. She used this product in the attached photos as she made her 1st public appearance of 2025. It was windy, but once the wind subsided, those curls went right back in place. She also uses your products when she performs with Step Afrika. Would Donna's Recipe consider sponsorship as she runs for Miss Black USA ? The pageant takes place in August 2025.

Dear Miss Maryland,

Thank you for sharing your daughter's experience with our Curl Enhancing Gel - Whipped Vanilla Cream. We are happy to hear that it helped keep her curls in place during her busy campaign and performance schedule. Congratulations to Brie on being crowned Miss Black Maryland!

We are honored that she has chosen to use our products and we appreciate your interest in a potential sponsorship for her upcoming pageant in August 2025. We will definitely consider it and please feel free to reach out to us with any further inquiries.

Thank you for your support and we wish Brie all the best in her journey.

Best,
Donna's Recipe Team

Strength Hair Oil (Light/Nut Free Version)
Carla Ovia (Cincinnati, Ohio)
This oil is Fiya

Donna &Tab you did it again….
This oil is Fiya….My stylist that trims my ends every 3 weeks cannot believe how quickly my hair grows in between trims! I wear a pic I and it ends up growing below my eyebrows so quickly. I love the way it feels on my scalp after I shampoo my hair and the sheen it leaves after I come from under the hair dryer! Love this nut free strength oil and the original strength oil as well! Great product to maintain your styles!

Love it

First time using your product and it's very light, it doesn't weigh down the hair and it smells so good. Usually I have to reapply product daily, but it holds moisture and I just have to spray it to redefine the curls.. I'm definitely going to watch your video so that I can losen up my coils more.

Hair & Scalp Oil (LOC System) - Sweet Potato Pie Extra Creamy
Elaine C. Perkins (Washington, District of Columbia)
Wonderful

I purchased this product to use on my scalp and Microlocs. My loctician was very pleased because it was light and not oily. It didn’t clump and melted right into my hair. Love it.

Happy new year Elaine! We're so glad to hear that our Hair & Scalp Oil has been working well for both your scalp and Microlocs. It's great to hear that your loctician was pleased with the light and non-oily formula. Thank you for sharing your positive experience with us! Wishing you a happy and healthy new year ahead.

Curl Enhancing Gel - Whipped Vanilla Cream
Carol Briggs (Youngstown, Ohio)
Glad I tried

I'm always trying new products for my very short, colored hair so I wanted to try Tab's products also. I'm as happy with this product as I am with some other products I already use. Combined with the mousse, my curls pop and my hair is not left stiff when the products dry. I'm still a little frizzy by the end of the day though. The fragrance is light, not overpowering.

Thank you for giving Donna's Recipe a try! We're so glad to hear you're enjoying the mousse and how it helps your curls pop while keeping them soft and natural. For the frizz, you might want to pair it with our Sweet Potato Pie Hair and Scalp Oil for an added touch of moisture and shine throughout the day. We're here to support your hair journey, so don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need recommendations.

Edge Gel - Whipped Vanilla Cream
Javon Sharp (Greeneville, Tennessee)
Butter Soft

This was my second purchase of the gel, I simply love it. Great hold without drying or flaking. All of Donna’s products are amazing- she is showing out.
By the way we used ( well my hairdresser did) used Donna’s recipe shampoo, conditioner and curl defining mousse- we LOVE the smell, the slip and cleansing -it didn’t strip my hair. The photos are a take down of a two strand twist. I love your mousse and curl enhancing gel because my hair wasn’t tangled up or matted.
I highly recommend Donna’s Recipe
💛💛💛

Here’s a glowing response for this review:

It's the Oil That Makes the Difference

The power is in the Strenghten Oil. Power, that is to eliminate the fizzles and give a gloss that last more than a day. I've been waiting for a product that would accomplish both. Thank you Donna!
Can't wait to try the leave in conditioner next.
