D Low Shampoo System

Has anyone tried this? Did you like the results? I tried to do a search, but the words D LOW were too short to be included in the search.

I've been using this on my 5 year old daughter's natural hair about a year now. I love it. It has restored the natural curl pattern to her hair. Three years ago a relative combed her 4a/3c hair and it turned into a crunchy nightmare. After over a year of trying all types of moisturizing shampoos, I found this. Her hair is now longer than we started even though I chopped four inches off (that hair was so damaged it would not even straighten/soften with light heat). I've washed and flatironed her hair on rainy days and it does not revert. My daughter is in pigtails so I don't know if it a hot curled style will hold or not, but the hair should not frizz up.

I tried it on my own relaxed hair and had terrible results. My hair got so tangled, I had to cut and break the knots out. From this forum I found out the shampoo contains sodium lauryl sulfate, which is very drying for my hair. Also when I washed my childs hair I wash and rinse in small sections (maybe 6-8 sections). I always blowdry and flatiron her hair after the wash and do not use heat in her hair again until I rewash 3 to 6 weeks later. I would not recommend putting heat on any hair that is not freshly washed no matter what the directions say.

This forum had a thread about the product back on Jan. 7, 2005. It had a lot of links and bad reviews about the product. I don't know how to link but it was titled "no wonder we struggle with our hair ". Hope this information helps.

Thanks for the info. My hair is natural, but I will probably not order this now. I agree with you about putting heat on unclean hair. I thought it was strange that she said that you can blow hair dry and touch it up with heat after perspiring heavily. That's just asking for breakage.
