Anyone used Vita Ciment or Cera Repair Hydratherapie?

[natieya]

Hey ladies! Has anyone used Kerastase Vita Ciment or Matrix Biolage Cera Repair Hydratherapie? I know Keclee23 has, and her hair is lovely. Has anyone else had experience with these products? Thanks in advance!

I use Vita-Ciment and like it a lot. It's a great protein treatment that doesn't make my hair hard, detangles, seems to absorb into the hair instantly and rinses easily. I use it every 4 weeks or so, and immediately after rinsing relaxer from my hair before neutralizing.

Thanks for replying! Do you have to use a deep moisturizing conditioner after this treatment? Have you tried the Cera Repair Hydratherapie by Matrix Biolage as well?

thanks for posting this. I have always wanted to try the kerastase line.

You don't have to use a moisturizing conditioner after the Vita-Ciment treatment. I sometimes use one but most of the time don't. I have not tried the Cera Repair Hydratherapie.

I have the Matrix Biolage Cera Repair Hydratherapie, but I haven't used it yet. I'll probably try it this weekend.

What are the ingredients?

I just bought some off ebay. (I know, I know...I'm a PJ). Let me know how it goes for you and I will do the same!

So has anyone use the kerastase ciment anti-usure?
What about the kerastase ciment thermique?

I have both the ciment anti-usure and the ciment thermique. I don't use the anti-usure too much because it left a slight film on my hair and I find that the Kerastase masks are so much better on my hair than the less intensive daily conditioners. I do use the ciment thermique every time I flat iron my hair and sometimes when I roller set. I use it as a heat protectant but it is considered a "heat-activated treatment" that strengthens the hair when sealed in with heat. The ciment thermique is a staple for me.

I recently tried this.My hair felt very soft and smooth.I couldn't believe it was my hair.The only problem is that I am natural and my press was more puffy than i care for.I am going to try it with a roller set when i get my pibbs.If it comes out puffy again I may return it.

It is a good product. The Age Recharge is even better. I've used almost all of their products. I have my favourites though. It's usually part of my winter regimen.However, what i am doing right now is still working. So, at the moment, I am only usually the Creme Oleo Curl and the Mist Oleo CURL styling products for my braidouts. The rest of what I have is at home ... I can't remember what's there. I was going to give it to my neices, but ....

Oh, I have the Ciment Thermique too that I am using on and off right now. When I use this, I usually air dry in ponytails. I spray on a little liquid detangler and then apply a little Ciment Thermique . When it's dry, I might flat iron my roots sometimes.

Thanks ladies
ravenmerlita,are you relaxed or natural?

Thanks ladies
ravenmerlita,are you relaxed or natural?

I am transitioning from a texturizer (Affirm relaxer) since last September. The last time I texturized I used the vita-ciment as the protein step after rinsing out the relaxer and before neutralizing.
