Protein Queens: Challenge

[weavepat]

I finally tried the protein strengthener from Komaza's latest restock. I'm trying to reform my PJ ways, but an exception will be made for that stuff. Even my overprocessed ends were defined and strong without making my hair hard and brittle. In its absence I've tried to convince myself that I don't need it, that other products compare but that's not true
I only managed to get one bottle, but for the next restock I'm buying enough to get free shipping without shame

Agreed.

Need to do an Aphogee Strengthening Kit protein treatment. I should have enough for one more application, need to repurchase.

I need to always have this stuff at home!

Today I used Dudley's Hair Rebuilder Protein Conditioner. I haven't used this one in a long while but I'm glad I did because my hair felt stronger immediately after using it.

I'm just letting my new batch of DIY lotion cool. I decided to put hydrolyzed baobab protein in it. I've only used silk amino acids in my leave in, so I'm looking forward to trying this recipe on my hair.

Used this yesterday.

This might be too strengthening for my hair as a leave in, so I might start using this as a rinse out protein treatment instead.

I picked up this protein treatment, it's another Korean hair product I believe. I like the sound of it as it's chock full of ceramides.

Did you try this? What did you think?

 

[snoop]

I did another version of this today, with the "failed" lotion that I made here.

I added lupine, quinoa, jojoba and amino acids to the lotion base and my hair felt strengthened.

Ooh thank you!

Although these are treatments, any leave ins? I need to step up on my protein

 

[IDareT'sHair]

@LushLox
Not much on the protein L-I's.

Maybe some Salerm Vials (although I don't use any of these often) - Apoghee Green Tea Restructurizer and Apoghee Pro-Vitamin Leave In (Spritz) and a few others very infrequently though.

I also bought some Roux Argan Keratin Repair Treatment (another Spritz). I've only used it once or twice so far.

I tend to get most of my Protein Treatments through my Deep Conditioning Sessions.

Oh yes...and Mizani's Overnight Strengthening Treatment.

Hydrolyzed jojoba, quinoa, baobab, and lupine proteins.
