Although I'm not relaxed, I must say that her hair is fabulous! I love her tutorials. Her personality is on point ;)!
 
She's funny as helll to me.
Her hair does look good, it looks light and healthy after she's finished her routine, and her weave looks really good.
 
Wow her hair i beautiful, when i was relaxed my hair never looked like that - just goes to show i really didn't know how to take care of it.
 
I like both her hair and makeup videos. I have the aphogee: restructorizer, damaged hair shampoo, the two minute; and the keracare oil sheen w/humidity block.

Until I saw her video I thought that I was the only one who used the two minute conditioner every week. My hair loves protein. I haven't used the aphogee heavy protein conditioner in about 2 years, but may be going back to it for my next relaxer.
 
I currently use the 2 min reconstructor. I am trying to use of some of my products so I can buy everything else in the Aphogee line(not sure about the poo though) Watching her vids makes me want to try her regimen:grin: I'm hoping when I do use the products it gives me that swingamatic, bouncy hair:grin:
 
I love watching her so much!

I try (and succeed most of the time) to make sure my flatironed hair comes out looking like hers even though I'm not fully relaxed anymore. I think if you are relaxed and can afford it anyone could follow her regimen and get excellent results. It takes time, but it only gets better once you stick to it long enough.
 
i saw one of her vids for the first time this past weekend. her personality keeps them from being so dull and her hair be swangin.

i think im gonna pick up that 2 min reconstructor
 
I'd never heard of her till this thread. Thanks. Really nice. Her wrap looks like mine did when I was relaxed. Her hair is gawjus and she's pretty. Love the accent!

i used it once and my hair tangled very bad, the two minute reconstructor and green tea restructurizer does good but the shampoo was not on point. i havent used it since, but i may try it the week before my relaxer and see if that helps

I will stick to it and see if it can work for me.

I know a old hairdresser used to "set" my hair by sitting it under the dryer for 15 min. (combed down straight). And then she would finish blow drying and lightly flat iron.

My hair would always be bouncy like crazy. I think that is one of the keys to her success :yep:
 
I have been following her routine and so far so good (keeping my fingers crossed)
 
Aphogee shampoos suck. I tried the one for "Damaged Hair" & "Evening Primrose" both tangled my hair something sick.

But I love that Keratin Leave In, yummy :lick:.

i have a bunch of products that she uses but most of them i had before i saw her videos. i did however purchase the aphogee green tee spray and keracare oil sheen because of her. i love both products and i use the aphogee 2 minute treatment and green tea spray everytime i use heat. they are great products.
 
I'm glad that she's found a routine that works for her, but that's a lot of heat, a lot of protein, a lot of manipulation and a she relaxes her hair within an inch of it's life.

If I were focusing on looks vs substance then i'd take on her regimen, but I don't think it's sustainable for healthy hair or length retention over the long term.

I do enjoy her videos and her hair is pretty, but I gotta tell the truth on that regimen. :nono:

i noticed a lot of heat too (hood dryer, blow-dry, chi and curling iron :blush:) . i would say be wary of trying the regimen, not everybody's hair will withstand that much heat regularly. it's good that she's continually stresses that what she does works for her and makes no claims that it will work for others. i'm sure some may find success with it though. anyway, her hair does look really nice.

But she sure does give good instructions for how to have that show-stopping blingin' swangin' hair! I wouldn't mind following her tips every now and then :yep:

Just looking at her hair now I'd say that she could grow it out for sure.

but I agree that it just isn't going to work for some people.

ITA! I ADORE her hair, (to the point that i even wanted to go back relaxed... the bounce and swang had me drooling!)

This summer, a friend and I have tried to copy her regimen. both of us are natural. I followed Ateya's regimen only partially (because i didn't want to go and buy all the products) and my hair didn't come out better or worse than usual, so i just knew it wasn't for me because it didn't improve things for me (and it didn't make it worse either... so for me, why spend the money)...

but my friend did everything Ateya did to a "T"... bought all the products, carefully did all the steps... studied the vids... everything... and her hair ended up becoming hard and (heat? protein overload? manulipulation?) damaged. She ended up having to DC and baby her hair for the next few weeks to get her hair back to its soft natural state.

We were both really bummed, and the sad thing is she was a bigger fan of the youtube vids than I was (she introduced them to me), and she couldn't wait to try it out herself... only to waste money, time, and damage her hair. She was dissapointed in her results, but its all good tho. We both still love Ateya and her hair (and her awesome personality), and just used this as a lesson that everything doesn't work for everyone... maybe if she or I went back to relaxed, it would work wonders for our hair, but for now... we just admire from afar.
