Alright ladies, LAST THREAD This week, I promise. I am 6 mnths post, and am all over the place trying to figure out what to do with my hair! Alright, I've got it nailed down to a weave or braids, because I'd like to continue my stretch. QUESTION: I need a protien tx before I put in mt braids, correct? I have the following in my closet: ORS Mayo, Nexxus Emergencee, and Aphogee 2 stop (Hard Core Baby!!!). Which would you reccomend for a sister to use b4 the braids?????
 
I just did a Hardcore protein (Apoghee) treatment followed by 45mins of moisturizing yesterday...and today I braided my hair for my protective weave...When I detangled my hair I hardly had any hair in the comb...

I'm not too sure about single braids though, hopefully some others will chime in!
 
I'm getting my hair braided tomorrow, and I used Aphogee 2min reconstructor. I would use a mild to medium protein conditioner. Hope the experts will be here soon:yep: (Nonie, get in here lol).
 
I would go for Aphogee...I had someone recommend it to me when a beautician messed up my hair...I do the hard core protein (the one that smells really bad and you have to harden in your hair) followed by their moisture balancer once a month...and then once a week I do the two minute reconstructor with the moisture balancer once a week...my hair stopped shedding and barely have any hair in my pick when it is wet...yes I use a pick to detangle my hair...it works better than a comb actually...well for me anywho... :)...I try to make sure keep my protein and moisture in check because if it gets out of wack your hair will start falling out again...
 
Which ever you choose will be fine. Just make you do it before outting your braids. Although I'm leaning towards the emergencee (aphogee does nothing for me)
