ORS Straightening & Strenghthening - NOT a relaxer, what's the difference???

[krikit96]

Ok I've done 5 searches on this product and y'all ladies ain't done a thread about this YET? I'm not seeing it if y'all did... help a sista out!

It's looking to me like it's the same as washing, blow drying, and flat ironing your hair... YouTube reviews have me skeptical, somebody HAD to have used this!!! Spill the tea!

Bumping... Anyone???

sounds like a cheapy version of a amino acid treatment to me.

I've never seen this mess before, but I'm curious...

I have used it. It turned out pretty good! It is the same premise as Shea Moisture treatment, except it is just 3 products. First you clarify with the shampoo, then use the foam treatment on detangled, sectioned hair, then add the leave-in conditioner, blow dry, and flat iron. It also makes your curls manageable (whatever that means,lol).

Here's a YouTube clip of two ladies from beauty beat box... It looks like a simple wash, blow dry & flat iron, but I know it's got to be different. I'm not following what's supposed to be so special???

I think the ingredients is the difference.

I just tried the treatment today. It worked surprisingly well for my hair type (4a,b,c) / 5 months post relaxer.

I noticed the difference when I started blow-drying my hair. My hair never gets smooth when I blow-dry it but it did this time. Next I flat ironed my hair and it turned out soft and bouncy. After the entire process my hair looks relaxer straight with body (normally my roots puff back up halfway through flat ironing).

If nothing goes wrong I think this will be my staple while transitioning and maybe even once I am all natural.

Thanks for this review.

Now I'm seriously getting something similar for my 2 natural DD's....this seems like a great alternative to relaxers for little girls.

Yesterday I bought the Silk Minerals Kera Minerals Straightening System DEEP CONDITIONER ONLY and it was wonderful! Now I'll buy the whole system and let you guys know how it works out.

So this is ORS answer to Beautiful Texture TMS.

Wow we have come a long way from when the Natural movement started, there are so many choice and tools available now.

I hope this product is still around by the time my daughter grows out of her ponytails and barrettes stage. I never planned on relaxing her hair, but I know when she gets older she will probably want to wear it straight more often. I think this system offers the best of both worlds.
