I am so sorry! I made the exact same mistake and paid for it last year. I was looking for a cheaper alternative and tried Mizani Butter Blends but I decided to do a strand test on the nape of my neck
.... my hair fell out! The Mizani was mild and I left it on for only 10 minutes (I will show you some pics). I can't even imagine what would have happened had I applied it to my whole head.
Are you back to using Phyto?
Using ceramides definitely helped my hair to get back into shape. The ceramides that I use include:
Joico K-Pak reconstructor
Biolage Fortetherapie and Hydratherapie
Redken Extreme Antisnap
Mizani Nighttime H20 (awesome!)
