Your hair looks great! You did an excellent job!

 

[Your Cheeziness]

Wow!! That looks incredible! I love the Aphogee Keratin spray. I use it when I flat iron and I love the results just like you! Great job!

 

[Esq.2B]

What products did you wash and condition with?

What Flatiron do you use?

Looks great lady! I've been thinking about the aphogee green tea.... but I've been looking for my Chi Keratin Mist.... it's good stuff.

Thanks so much! You have gorgeous hair!

Beautimussss!!!

Beautiful hair. I use the Green Tea also. Good stuff

Nice & Pretty... Happy Hair Growing!

Thank you so much ladies!!!!

Love the results!!

Are you using it for "heat" protectant? Or to give it a little extra strength before straightening?

Thank you Vonnie!!! I used it for strength and as a heat protectant since it says to lock in the treatment with heat... I will call it my "small time" bkt, or *pinky finger to lip* MINI BKT... can i do that?

Your right, you shouldn't have used flash cuz all that shiny hair just blinded me! I love it! I got some Aphogee Green Tea too and you post just made me whip it out. I got a touch up on Wed and I want to help it get its strength back.

Thank you!!! I was trying to capture the shine, like all the lovely hair pics I have seen here... Glad you're going to use it... "FP's forgottens products need love to"

 

[acapnleo]

I thinks it's beautiful! Also you're not the only "hair-aniac"!

Thank you!!!!
girl, i was all over this house... even while I was on hold on the phone... camera in hand trying to capture pics and it took forever trying to post this... after all that time of me and my herrrrr lachen they all just settled into doing their own thang.

Terrific results!!!! now - did you use it before blow drying on wet hair??????

Thank you!!!! Lucky, I applied it while my hair was damp, I tried to remove excess dripping water... then I applied liberally (praying I did not over do it)

Your hair is BLINGIN', girl! Beautiful job!

Your hair looks great!
I think that's something i'll have to add to my list...

Thank you Ladies!!!!

Your hair looks great! I've been thinking about getting the Aphogee Green Tea, but I always hesitate b/c I'm scared that it, coupled w/ Aphogee 2-Min. would be too much protein. Maybe not, though, since it looks like I HAVE to blowdry + flat-iron to get my hair straight.

 

[Sapphire_chic]

ooo blinging results, green tea is no.1 on my wish list

 

[acapnleo]

Looks good! I tried the green tea last night for the first time before I rollerset. Then after I applied Fantasia IC the pink one, and my hair lookes so shiny and it felt soft and protected!.

You should post pics!!! Yep, that's exactly how my hair feels, although, it was hard to wrap (after I got all of my pics). It was falling all over the place.

Your hair is blingin girl...I also wanted to give a shout out to my backup Andis flatiron...lol..Its the truth when my babybliss is actin up...

Thank you!!!! Aint that the truth! Andis is ALRIGHT! gives me better results than my SOLIA. Although, I do want this Nano (something-- the name escapes me... its like $80 something)

the darker parts of my hair is NG versus the lighter colored parts... and the ANDIS gets to it... lays it all the same and its smooth and silky...

Great results...nice and shiny !!!

YAY! Thanks for this! I will be trying this today when I get home from shopping! Nice to know I don't have to break the bank to get this product!

Thank you ladies!!!! EXACTLY.. my hair pjism has cost me alot of money since my hair journey has started... but meh... its less than $5 at Sally's if I remember correctly.

Very Pretty Congratulations.

Whoa! That came out nice!

Thank you ladies!!! This will be my product when I go on heat binges.

Ladies, i might add... one thing I left out when i was giving shout outs.... I have this brush.. It looks scary, i have had it a long time... and tried it once for blowdrying and never tried it again... Its that scary.

Well... I used it toward the end (I always finish the front last)... What i learned is, you have to use in small, already detangled sections.
The results were nicer than with no chase method (specifically on the front)... and I think it may have added to the smoother results you see... It's a lot of maneuvering, so the front / high middle would be the only areas I would venture to do. Anyway, I'm going to try and find a pic of it.

ETA- ok the scarey brush I have is called Conair Tourmaline Ceramic, tho I can't find pics of it online (mine is old and I may have purchased from Walmart, I think)... I did find a brush that looks similar (tho mine has a weird lock on it when you clamp down... I did not use the lock) PIC WONT PASTE, you can see it here (this is a denman) http://www.waxingsupply.com/images/D-441241.jpg?osCsid=4bngrqlutthkaso6rq9ihaeiv1

Great JOB!!! Beautiful hair!!! What products did you wash and condition with? What Flatiron do you use?

Thank you!!! I washed with Pantene for Women of Color, conditioned with Motions.. followed by, Aussie Moist mixed with a squeeze of Organix Shea Butter Conditioner (yes, i know thats alot, but i like it and my hair smells ) I flat ironed with my ANDIS (oldie but goodie from Walmart)

Thank you!!! Darling, I did not use this in conjunction with any other Aphogee products. Maybe only do one, to avoid overload. This treatment should be used with heat, per the instructions.

ooo blinging results, green tea is no.1 on my wish list

Thank you Sapphire!!! Girl go get it... treat yourself

Very pretty!

 

[*fabulosity*]

It is sooo pretty!!! Yes, I know about being called "crazy"... what do they know... lol.. I now have resigned to doing my hair at odd hours as to not to attract "attention" from those who can't feel my struggle.

JUST BEAUTIFUL!

Thank you Fabulosity!!!!... girl you just don't know... you are one of my main inspirations for this... looking at your BKT results.. I haven't taken the plunge.. so I call myself doing a MINI mini BKT (maybe need to add a few more mini's now that I think about it)

 

[Hysi]

very pretty- so shiny!

 

[nurseN98]

Very pretty! I've been eying that reconstructor too at Sally's...now I must go buy it. The pj in me can't resist. Have you had any reversion though? I use Sabino when I flat iron i wonder if I can use both.

 

[Lyoness]

wooow your hair looks soooo pretty!!!! Would you mind posting an image of what this green tea bottle looks like pls?! I googled and 3/4 different bottles came up

Thank you Nurse!!!! Well, so far so good. I am not having an issue with reversion, although, the weather is cooler out, so I am sure that has alot to do with it... I have used sabino, but I have not mastered using it... maybe I apply too much (tho my Sabino bottle looks untouched)... so tho I thought about it, I didn't dare do them together... I'm a wng type, so I will likely wash this out in the next couple of days anyway... I was just having a fit for straight silky hair... I'm temporarily fixed
