Well since I have the Trade Secret hookup I decided to try some kpak. I got the whole line but have not had the chance to wash my hair. However, I have used the k pak serum this week and let me say


I AM HOOKED
!!! My hair never, do you hear me, NEVER looks good after day 4. By day 4 it is always dry, and just looks out of place. I have used the serum a few times since I washed and styled my hair using PM products a weeks ago and my hair still looks as good as it did on day one. I could go another 3 days without washing if I wanted to. I haven't even been tying up my hair with my scarf in the past couple of nights. My hair is smooth, has body, and has retained soooo much moisture.

I think Im going back to my good ol' serums. :grin:
 
:sekret::sekret::sekret::sekret::sekret:

Love me some Joico!!!!!!!!!!!

What is the name of the "serum" that you used?

Begins to pull out credit card ...
 
Ok, so I think I am going to have to try joico. I am not feeling my hair right now and maybe different products will make it act right.
 
Girl, I am going back to kpak exclusively next week. I just reordered some things so I can't wait. My hair is always in great condition when I use joico.

I purchased the whole line but I haven't used it yet. I will start next wash and see how my hair likes it. I have been stretching any shed hair that I find and I have noticed when I stretch it, the elasticity is B A N A N A S. Last year I used the moisture line and it was "OK" but if the rest of the kpak line is as good as the serum it might be a keeper.:yep:

I like the kpak line better than the moisture recovery. The kpak line has of variety in products.
 
I use the several lines every week.

I use K-Pak (Chelating Shampoo or K-Pak shampoo, Cuticle Sealer, Reconstructor, Intense Hydrator and Split End Mender) on Mondays.

I use the Moisture Recovery on Wednesdays and Fridays.

Joico for LIFE!!! :grin:

Now to get me some of dat serum :sekret:

Its not a game with you and your joico, huh?:lachen:

BTW how is that split end mender? I was thinking it wouldn't do any more than the serum. I got the Kpak chelating poo, poo, reconstructor, intense hydrator, smoothing balm, and serum. I had to hide it when I got home so I wouldn't get the side eye for having a big ol trade secret bag full of new products:lachen::lachen::lachen::lachen:

:lachen::lachen::lachen:Ya know! Thank god my DH is "understanding" :rolleyes:

I like the split end mender. You only have to use a tiny bit. I just ordered the serum and I will compare the two.
 
Oh, I forgot. I also use the Daily Conditioner every day for my braid outs.

How often to you use the serum? Will using a little daily with the Daily Conditioner be too much?

I use it pretty much when my hair feels a little thirst lol It is very moisturizing for a serum. I think in the last 7 days I have used it 4 times. I couldn't tell you about the daily conditioner because I wear straight styles. Since I wear straight styles, I don't used water based products except on wash day. But I haven't had any build up from the serum so I don't think it would be too much at all.
 
Hmm...I think this is one of the few things that I don't have...

I love Joico Kpak. It has really slowed down the PJ in me. I stocked up the last sale JCP had but I didnt get the serum cause my hair usually hates serums but now I may have to give it a try. Nothing mositures my hair like the IH!!

I am under my steamer right now doing a pre-poo. I will them be doing my 17 minute miracle routine today instead of Monday (I have been traveling and my hair needed some TLC ASAP!!)

I will be trying the serum today as well as the final part of my routine. I will post my review tomorrow. I already know that I am going to LOVE it!!

Well it was because of your great reviews of Joico that I even got interested in it. Have you tried the Joico Moisture recovery poo and con yet? And if so, what are they like? I want the k-pak line and the moisture but only if you say they are pretty good. TIA.

I have a few already so I am currently stocking up on my Joico line.
 
Dang you Shtow. I bought 4 new conditoners today and I had to hide them in my big purse so DH would not see. Now I'm t hink about getting this whole line. It's to much. Can't decide. I'm going to have a melt down. On the other hand, it's a good thing I have a job now to support this habit, lol.

okay this is what I was looking for but may I ask why you like the kpak line more than the moisture recovery line? I mean, isn't one the kpak line supposed to be only protein? Help, need some clarity on this.

Please report back with your latest findings. Roger.
 
OMG!!! JOICO is my LOVE, my heart, my baby daddy ...:cry:


Ok, dramatics aside. I tried the serum as part of my Joico routine yesterday. Initially, I could not feel any difference. But ....

This morning my hair felt live heaven! I took down my braids for a braid out and my hair has NEVER felt softer or more moisturized! If I EVER attempt to use another line, just send me a cyber slap :hardslap:

Here are some pics (sorry so big):

WHat is the "17 minute miracle" ??? Can you leave it in for longer than 17minutes?
 
The 17 Minute Miracle is a part of a system that includes (in order of application):


  1. Joico Chelating Shampoo - 2 minutes
  2. Joico Cuticle Sealer - 5 minutes
  3. Joico K-Pak Reconstructor - 5 minutes
  4. Joico Intense Hydrator - 5 minutes
I have followed the timing to a "T" and I would not recommend leaving it in for longer.

Also, I do this without heat.

HTH
