Hey AmberSkye, Sorry it took me so long to respond, I just got home from work and I am sitting here at the computer with my heating cap on. To be quite honest with you I love all the products I called the 800# that is on the back of the Pantene products and the girl I spoke with gave me a wealth of information regarding how to use the products. I have noticed I don't hear that dreaded sound of popping hair when combing through my hair my relaxer seems to last longer as well. I also started using the Affirm relaxer which I now prefer over other relaxers as well. Give it a shot girl you don't have anything to loose, remember you can always take the products back. My mother swears by Pantene (the regular kind) she has always had very thick shoulder length hair. (it more or less stayed at the same length) but, since she switched over to Pantene her hair is in the middle of her back. My mother who is 68 years old is living proof that you don't have to trim your ends in order for your hair to grow. (trust me I have told her more than once that she needs to trim her ends) but she is from the old school and does not believe in the snip. I don't know how long I will be using the products but for now they are the only ones that I use. I have a sister in law with 5 yes I said 5 daughters and I have given her about 2 shopping bags of hair products that are just collecting dust and I haven't had a second thought..sorry so long.
