Fantastic stuff, both of these. For those who don't know what type of hair I have, its wavelaxed
I generally relax anywhere from 12+ weeks, last relaxer was in April and I'm anticipating a really long stretch to hopefully October. (pray for me y'all!) I comb 2 days a week (on wash days), deep condition once a week, I do bun or pony every day. My hair was between APL and BSL in January, I cut it back to just above APL. I think its now back to APL (but I gnerally don't measure)
Anyway, I'm having some hair issues, mainly a lot of tangling and matting. Nothing has been working, though I used a clarifying shampoo and do whatever it takes to avoid buildup. I do use a lot of protien though this time around I've kept it to only DC's and not every day.
This particular stretch has been heinous. I've got a lot of new growth that has been particularly out of control.
( I guess it figures its summer after all
) I've never been prone to matting though I seem to be this time around.
Believe it or not I do read this board and don't just hang out in OT all the time. Anyway I started reading the FSP thread. I usually use Porosity control or Nexxus ensure but even those two werent helping. Both of those have acidic levels of 4.5 and 3 respectively, and they usually do the job. I guess when my hair decided it wanted to break free it was doing it with a vengence.
At 6 bucks I figured I'd give FSP a try.Unfortunately I can't find FSP around here anywhere and I was already going to order Lacio Lacio so I ordered both.
All I can say is wow.
I shampooed like normal, I used FSP like I would a conditioner. I didn't get a lot of suds, (barely got any) and left it in like 3 minutes while I finished my shower.
Figured it couldnt hurt much.
I was amazed. No matts, no tangles. KEWL!
My new growth was still there but it was laying down and not looking like a mini fro.
Anyway I used a quarter sized amount of the lacio lacio along with and 2 drops of Chi silk on my hair, and the strands were in LUV
Very moisterized, very happy.
These two are keepers for sure.
