WOW.... Sabino Moisture Block video on YouTube

[JLove74]

Well ladies, the spring/summer is coming up and for some of us that means dealing with the humidity. Sabino moisture block is a great product. I've used it for a little over a year now. Recently, I forgot to use it and it was on a day that we had some warmer than average weather here in DC. The frizzies started When I do use it, no frizzies. This stuff REALLY works, for me.

Here is video on YouTube to demonstrate the product. There are 2 biracial (I think) young ladies included.

JLove, thanks for the info! This stuff looks like what I neeeeeeeed for the summer! Anyone know where it can be found on the net or in Atlanta? How would it be used for someone natural who is flat ironing their hair straight? I would guess I use it right before rollersetting or blow drying?

I received the free sample last week, but I haven't used it yet. I'm waiting on very humid weekend. The sample is kinda small though, so, how do you use it? As a leave-in, styler or finisher?

Thanks.

I'm natural and I use it while the hair is wet before rollersetting or blowdrying and just a dab after I've flat ironed. YOu can purchase it online, but if you go to sabino.com, they are giving free samples.

Lala said she's been using this for quite a while now. I use Aveda Anti-Humectant but it isn't 100% effective. I want something that works in the most humid places on Earth, like the jungles of the Amazon.

ETA: I would have tried Sabino by now but I keep forgetting about it. There doesn't appear to be many ladies here who use it. Also, the styles are with Sabino are usually straight hair styles rather than rollersets. Does this mean it removes all curl? :scratchch

I just called the company and talked to Diane, then got to speak with the owner. He was really awesome. He told me step by step how to use the product. I told him I was afraid as it is water proof, how do I get in my moisture? I want to block out environmental moisture, but keep in moisture that is necessary for my hair. He says that the product makes moisture perfect. Meaning when you shampoo and condition, leave in some conditioner, put in whatever moisture products you want, then put in his moisture block, it will seal in the moisture that you have put in the hair, and keep out the moisture you don't want from the environment. I just ordered the product. I was like this close from getting a relaxer and I wanted to resist and stay natural, but I don't want my hair reverting in 2-3 days...otherwise why straighten it at all. He says it will last until my next wash, I only wash once a week. I hope it's as good as he says it is. He has instructional videos on you tube on the product, and says the product, when used correctly protects the hair from heat. So anyways I will get back to you on if it works. He explain to me why most black women hate cones, and that most cones work in a different way then his product. Most cones are mixed with water and become a mess, they aren't effective and cause more damage than good. It took two years to develop his product and he constantly works on black hair. He says none of his clients have heat damage as the product works to seal the hair and protect it from the environment and the heat from the iron. We'll see...I'll let you know.

Great job!! I was ready to pick up the phone. What he said is how I use the Anti-Humectant. I wonder, can this work without using heat?

 

[SerenavanderWoodsen]

This stuff didnt work for me,, it just seemed like any other serum, frizz ease etc....also the bottle was so small for the huge price and it spilled out in my bag... i hate it lol, i guess im a little biased because it spilled LOL

 

[JLove74]

I was reading on another website, a naturally curly type, where people were using it for rollersetting with and without heat. Some were just using it after washing to keep their curls from frizzing (no heat used)

ETA: If you buy it from Sabino, there is a 100% money back guarantee!

Thanks

My hair looks a lot like yours, Raven. It was just too gummy and heavy for my hair.

on the main page a pop-up will appear. it may not if you have a pop-up blocker. you can try contacting them for samples, too,

 

[luckiestdestiny]

It's www.gotfrizz.com not sabino.com

 

[luckiestdestiny]

Great job!! I was ready to pick up the phone. What he said is how I use the Anti-Humectant. I wonder, can this work without using heat?

He said product can be used on straight curls to block out the effects of mositure too. So heat doesn't seal in the moisture, the product does. I just added the heat part because it also protects the hair if you want to flat iron. I like that part, because it cuts down on all the products needed to straighten.

 

[luckiestdestiny]

Last thing, he asked me to keep him updated on my progress and not to hesitate to contact him with any questions. I liked that. Very personable. That plus a money back guarantee, I thought what am I losing?

 

[ajacks]

Hmmm........ The product does look interesting. But I felt really sorry for the little girl in the video. I think I will try to get the sample.

 

[JLove74]

It's www.gotfrizz.com not sabino.com

oops, sorry about that. Thanks for the correction.

Thank you. Hmm... that's why Lala's hair keeps getting longer and longer and longer, with heat.

 

[bravenewgirl87]

This is a product I've really wanted to try for a very looooooong time. But, I wasn't sure if it would work on me. Plus it must have alot of cones.

Michelle Breyer | August 1st, 2007

Curly-headed stylist Victor Sabino believes silicones have gotten a bad rap. “There are all kinds of misconceptions that all silicones dry out the hair, and it’s not true,” says Sabino of the Sabino Salon in Scottsdale, Ariz. and creator of the Sabino line of hair-care products. “It frustrates me every time I hear stories.”

Sabino believes silicones actually can help the hair by serving as a barrier against damage from appliances and the elements while keeping out frizz-causing moisture in the air. His line of products is designed to protect the hair from all forms of external moisture and humidity while maintaining the right internal moisture content.

“I’ve found through testing that it does no damage to the hair, and I’ve seen dramatic improvements. I’ve seen damage reduced,” Sabino says.

Moisture Block, aimed primarily at the curly-haired market, uses two different dimethicone polymers in a non-water-soluble formulation to create a moisture barrier. It is designed to keep humidity from penetrating and keeping it smooth, shiny and manageable without frizzies.

Another misconception about silicones is that they build up on the hair. While that may be true with lower-quality silicones, which often are mixed with other ingredients, he says his formulation contain “the highest grade of silicones that money can buy” and does not cause build up. He calls his products shampoo soluble, not water soluble.

“Once it’s applied to the hair, it surrounds the hair shaft and holds to it until it’s shampooed out,” he says.

Sabino is no newcomer to the hair-care industry. He has been a stylist for more than 35 years, founding OGGI International of Beverly Hill, known for its Root Lift volumizer. His company was one of the first to design spray leave-in conditioners. While working at his salons in California, he was a “stylist to the stars,” working with such celebs as Meg Ryan and Sylvester Stallone. He has appeared in such magazines as Vogue, Elle, Brides and Cosmopolitan.

Sabino considers the creation of Moisture Block to be one of his greatest triumphs. He says he developed the product because of his own frustrations with what was on the market for people with curly hair. He worked with a chemist to come up with the formulation and tested it on more than 500 women, traveling to humid places such as Hawaii and Louisiana. He says it held up against every possible condition. It took him a year and a half to develop the product.

Moisture, he says, is the single most important factor in determining the way your hair looks. Problems arise when the hair has either too much or too little moisture. In high-humidity climates, when the moisture level rises above 11 percent, curly hair can get frizzy and unmanageable. Too little moisture, on the other hand, can make the hair look and feel like straw.

Sabino’s popular Moisture Block uses a blend of polymers to form a moisture barrier on the surface of the hair, reducing the rate at which water moves into or out of the hair follicle. Too often, he says, conditioners can’t do what they need to do because they don’t stay in the hair.

‘Moisture Block seals it in so it can’t leave the hair,” he says. “It’s like putting a clear coating over a patch so it plugs it up.”

To bring out natural curls, Sabino suggests applying Moisture Block in one-inch sections and twisting them, letting them dry naturally or drying them with a diffuser. To straighten curls, apply Moisture Block to wet hair and dry it with a vent brush and apply more with your fingers and brush through. If you use a flat iron, Moisture Block liquifies when heated which allows it to spread evenly through the sections.

For summer, he suggests applying Moisture Block before going swimming to prevent chlorine damage. It can also be used on the skin to soften feet, hands and elbows; to reduce lines around the eyes; to prevent bumps after waxing and to prevent peeling after a sunburn.

Sabino’s hair-care line also includes the Volumize, which creates volume lift and body, and the Finisher, a non-sticky, soft-hold hair spray. Like Moisture Block, they are water proof.

“We have a very loyal following for these products,” Sabino says. “So many people are hooked. They beg me ‘Never stop making it!’ One client calls it ‘the magic stuff.’ “

Sounds to good to be true....Not to say it doesn't work ...But the last thing out hair needs is something to block moisture.....Does it block all kinds of moisture....

I just posted some info about it. My Aveda Anti-Humectant also blocks out moisture. It also seals in moisture and all of the ladies here who use it love it. It isn't 100 % though but very good.

That is it?????

Hmmmm

 

[JLove74]

That is it?????

Hmmmm

Sorry, those are silicones. But don't be afraid. cones, used in moderation, are OK for your hair. Well, at least mine anyways. I know some folks shy away from them.
