Here's how I use it:
-I use it as a strong protein treatment every 4-6 weeks. I shampoo, rinse, then apply the DRC under a shower cap, with heat for 15 minutes. After rinsing I follow it up with a moisturizing conditioner for 15-20 minutes with heat. Then leave-ins, etc...
-I use it following a chemical treatment such as a relaxer or hair color application. I neutralize first, and then I leave it on my hair for 5 minutes with heat. I follow that up with a moisturizing conditioner and go from there.
-some people prefer doing the protein treatment a week before or a week after their touchup. That's fine but I prefer it during the touching up process because I feel it benefits my hair more.
-This is the only protein treatment you need during the relaxing process. No other reconstructors are necessary. Like i said, this is strong stuff! Don't forget the moisturizing treatment though. Very important!
-I do NOT mix protein with my relaxer. EVER.
-You can use it for the post-perm but pre-neutralizing step if you choose. I've never tried it though.
-If you don't have a dryer or heating cap you can wrap a warm towel around the shower cap on your head. Or you can leave the product on a little longer at room temperature. Heat helps products penetrate your hair shaft better though.
-Rinse the product really well from your hair. Do not use the kitchen sink for this one! Not rinsed well enough = hard hair. You don't want that. Again don't forget the moisturizing deep conditioner following any protein treatment, especially this one.
Feel free to ask me more questions as you think of them. I'm here to help!
Thank you for sharing this info. I will have to put this on my wish list
