Great info I love that you told people the difference between the two keratin because the Brazilian keratin ones with blow outs are the ones can cause damage but the one you did helps strengthen.

Your hair turned out really lovely. I was skeptical of keratin treatments. But I'm going to try it though. Thanks for the detailed video.

I love watching you do your hair! It always looks so great! So I recently decided to grow out my shape and I want to wear my hair straight more frequently than before and get it cut in a straight state vs curly cuts and I agree with you about the revair- it's less damaging and it's worth the splurge if you want to use heat or straighten. I wish I hadn't gotten rid of mine 😩. Your hair always looks like salon quality when you do it omg! Thank you for clearing up the info about keratin because I thought it would give permanent results too but this one doesn't sound bad at all!

This sounds like what I need. Reduce split ends, and provide reduced frizz. I don’t want to change my curl pattern. 4a/3c, highly dense hair, high porosity-wash and gos are my style - curl cream- wet line gel - diffuse. Restyle once a week - with a shampoo and deep condition.

Thank you for sharing this product. I’ve been searching for something like this to help maintain my hair living in a humid environment that won’t damage my natural curls so much. I have also found that wearing braid outs and twist outs too often breaks the ends of my hair and I would have to cut more hair off. My hair personally just doesn’t fair well with twist outs and wearing my natural curly hair frequently. I’ve tried it multiple times and I always have way more breakage no matter how moisturized my hair is, but if I blow dry my hair once or twice a week and straighten my hair every other week, my hair grows quickly and I only have to cut off a half an inch every two months. Generally I retain two inches of hair growth every three months. Definitely considering using this product and looking forward to an update.❤

See that’s so interesting you experienced more growth when blow drying, I’ve seen a few other videos and comments of women saying the same thing! I think I will try to blow dry my hair after the shower every week and then do a twist out of flexi Rod every other day to see if that helps!

@@Offthebeatenpath. I find it interesting as well. All the research suggests no heat or minimal heat but I’m finding with my own experience that heat is fine as long as you use a good heat protectant. My heat protectant of choice is the “Chi 44 Iron Guard”. It works great. I’ve been using it almost a year now this fall and I haven’t had any heat damage at all.

Thanks for your video. There are SO many contradictions out there about keratin saying that keratin is good and then keratin is bad, drying out your hair, thinning out hair and causing breakage. What's your thoughts? Do you think it's okay to do a keratin treatment and then NOT blowdry it after? and just let it dry on it's own? I bought the Keratin by ANSWR have you ever used that one? It doesn't have Formaldyhide but usually when they take out formaldihyde they usually replace it with something almost identical with a different name...but all the reviews for ANSWR are REALLY good...but anyway, tell me what you think...

@Offthebeatenpath.

I have not used that one so I’m not sure about it to be honest. I will say nothing is “clean or toxic free” including the keratin. I did notice shedding after this keratin treatment I did and chalked it up to postpartum shedding because it’s never caused me shedding in the past. So as a result I am doing away with the keratin. I’ve also noticed my hair is more manageable when I take care of it(fuller, less breakage) so learning to care for it(finger detangling, little heat, etc.) has done what I wanted the keratin to do which was make it easier for me to manage! Hope that helps
