Thanks, you all. I'm completely clueless when it comes to the Dominican and Brazilian products, but I'm interested in trying a few because of the raves, after my braids come down. Also, I was in Sally's and in my town, it's the hispanic Sally's cause that's all that works there, and a latina was in there and I made out that she was asking for silicon mix which they didn't have. I may not replace my whole hair care line, but I'm curious at what the silicon will do.
