For detangling and moisture It's a 10 is much better.

However Redken Anti-Snap has ingredients that I look for in heat protection, namely: centrimonium chloride and hydrolyzed vegetable protein pg-silanetriol. These are proven to protect against heat damage and the centrimonium chloride actually helps to increase tensile strength when heat is applied to the hair.

For a heat protectant Redken anti-snap is the best I have found while I am really liking It's a 10 as a detangling leave in that adds shine and softness. That is why if I am for instance flat ironing, I would use them both.

Thanks for the thorough response. I guess I'll do a lil' Redken haul next month:
+Anti Snap
+Cleansing Cream
+Extreme Strength Builder Plus

I've never tried Redken, so all of these will be new to me.

ETA: I liked the It's a Ten, the one time that I used it.

[IDareT'sHair]

Used: Mega-Tek & BoBeam's Peppermint Hair Rootz Hair Oil

 

[faithVA]

I had a sample of Dax jojoba oil. I thought it was an oil but when I opened it realized it was a pomade. I sealed with it last night. This is probably the first product that has really sealed my hair. I'm going to try a few other things first but if I can find this locally it may become my sealant.

[Beamodel]

Used Sarenzo Beads Chocolate Butter

 

[DoDo]

Used Sarenzo Beads Chocolate Butter

Beamodel

You have that too? Yay! I thought I was weird for not trashing it .

I actually melted it down in the microwave, re-blended it and let it set in the fridge to get rid of the gritty balls in it. I am never buying it again, but I can at least use what I have .

 

[toaster]

I'm going on almost 2 weeks without washing my hair and my hair is super soft and moisturized. I moisturize and seal every day even if my hair doesn't seem to "need" it, so I need to stick with once a week washing.

Today I used coconut oil, TGIN butter cream, and SSI Seyani Butter.

Exactly. I will never get anything from them again but yup, I have the butter and love it. I was digging in my stash I don't use and found it. It smells divine too

 

[ronie]

Washed and DC'd ast night, so i used the usual: SD WGBC and marie dean whipped shea nilotica butter. I also added some grapeseed oil to my DC, and keravada fenugreek oil to my prepoo.

DoDo thanks for the info. Of course i went looking for the redken, but the ingredients listed on the ulta (partial list) or walgreen (full list) website does not contain the ingredients you mention. Is there a reformulation you know about? Here's the product that came up when i searched

Thanks sis, I was able to read everything. Where did you purchase yours? I won't order it online; I will have to purchase I store, as I am getting different ingredient listing online.
