@bolded: true! I believe that is one of the reasons Pinkskates started her group, KMH, because she wanted to provide a place for naturals who straighten to discuss techniques, etc. without getting bashed for using heat. I will be joining this new BKT group .

I'm starting to hear about the BKT outside of the board plus people keep asking me what am I doing to my hair lately, it looks so "healthy" Love it!

LOVE this!!!

Yeah, the compliments on my BKT'd hair have been tremendous. I get more compliments on my hair now than I have at any time; relaxed, natural, weaved up, wigged up and all.

Hey guys, so how do we do the group thing? Do we go somewhere different? Please forgive my ignorance but I've never been a group member on lhcf before! :blush3:

 

[MissJ]

Add me to the group please. I think tonight is the night.

 

[sheba1]

Oooh I'm so excited for you! Which are you going to use, Miss J?!

 

[MyAngelEyez~C~U]

Well, I will be doing my first BKT this weekend...crossing fingers and hoping for the best. Using Softliss but thinking of ordering Dreamhair or Inoar for future treatments...

 

[Natural Glow]

You can click "groups" up at the very top of the screen, up there by the arcade link. You can just post messages the same as you do here and you can post pics for the group members to see(I'm not sure if only group members can see or not)

Add me to the group please. I think tonight is the night.

Done!

I subscribe to this thread, and I'd love to join the BKT group, please! I will be doing my own BKT probably in January, as soon as I'm confident that my hair is in good condition and my moisture balance is up to par.

 

[Dak]

Thanks Fab and back at you! There are some beautiful heads of hair doing BKT's now.

[MarieB]

Congratulations, MyAngelEyes! Hope the process wasn't too strenuous! I'm putting mine off until my BF feels better; I'm playing nursemaid this weekend, so I have to wait. And Sheba's right; after the first wash you will be so much more in love....

Yikes....I'm sorry I'm so late to this....

I subscribed to this thread ages ago, and read for updates whenever I log on. Haven't been on LHCF in at least a week (....kinda' busy week.)

Anyway, I'd LOVE to be a member of the group. Please send me an invitation. If required, I'll even post. Hoping to do a treatment before the end of this year and would appreciate having a place on lhcf for support.

 

[texasqt]

Thanks ladies for your responses. Everything you've said seems to play a big part in the way my hair is responding to the treatment. Hopefully others will learn from my mistakes...the heat temperature WAS a factor Mine Sedu only goes up to 410 which I thought would be hot enough...I know for a fact that I used too much. Way more than the 2 oz....It's just sitting on top of my hair....

I'm quoting myself to say I my 3rd weekly wash after Softliss. I corrected the issue I had of sticky, weighed down hair after my 2nd wash by lightly spraying my hair with Aphogee's Green Tea Keratin spray and flat ironing with 450 degrees. I did this on the same day that I originally flat ironed and posted about my hair being sticky after the 2nd wash. In other words, my hair had been freshly wash prior to. Lots of heat but a world of difference!

The third wash was done Friday and I :heart2: Softliss. When washing my hair was soft and manageable and my roots were not puffy at all! And my hair was not sticky!!! The product, I'm assuming, had been baked in when before it wasn't. My drying and styling time was cut in half! Now we're just waiting to see how long the treatment will last before I apply again...

Hot dog!! Way to troubleshoot it down, Texasqt! I'm so so glad you're loving your hair!!

Hey, and Mccray689 is selling the rest of her Softliss if you or anyone else using Softliss wants to buy it off her.

 

[MissMeWithThatIsh]

I'm considering doing a BKT touchup, but I will have to deep condition like crazy... oh and I am considering using the Green Tea reconstructor as well on top of QOD.

Thanks! I purchased 2 kits when I got mine (one was for my mom but she's sticking with her braids for now) so I won't need any more until mid-2010
