i just found a beauty supply store around where i live that carries professional products only.from what i saw they have practically every line.most of their proucts are european. the lady who works there is a hairdresser and she was telling me about the mastey line and showed me their shampoo. i have got to say that was the thickest shampoo i have ever seen.she had nothing but wonderful things to say about the shampoo and conditioner. the ingredient are wonderful and the shampoo contains no sulfates.she also said this line is alot better than alot of the american ones b/ it's been around longer and is great for chemically altered hair i.e relaxed. the only drawback about this place is that their relaxers are european brands.i asked her about affirm but she's never heard of it although she does carry keracare which she doesnt recommend b/c there's products that are better. well n-e-ways have any of you tried any european brands with great success??i went on mastey's website and their conditioner looks like it'd be an awesome detangler.
