Heavy Protein/Light Protein Conditioners

[sapphire74]

I am trying to find a heavy protein conditioner and a light protein conditioner to add to my staple of products, but I do not know which protein conditioners are light or which one are heavy.

Can you please list your protein conditioners that you use and tell me if it is a light or heavy protein? TIA

i only use light protein conditioners that i can use every week if i want. my fave is aphogee 2 minute. i also have joico k pack conditioner(its light too).

aphogee and joico both make hard core ones too but i dont use those.

Heavy Protein=Dudley's Hair Rebuilder ( Hair feels instantly stronger. So far, this is the only thing I have found that makes my hair feel strong within minutes of using. I follow w/PM Supercharged.

I like the fact that the bottle says to use for 15-20 minutes w/plastic cap and heat. This lets me know it is a heavy deep penetrating cond.

I have use the Dudley Hair Rebuilder years ago but I consider it a light protein conditioner that can be use weekly.
The Duldley DRC 28 is the heavy protein treatment in this line which is recommended every 6 weeks,followed by a moisturing conditioner.

In the past I've used motions cpr which is light/mild with ok results, I just used aphogee and I had very good results and will be using from now on.

Generally speaking, the darker, the more liquid, and the stinkier a protein product is, the stronger it is.
