Protein Reconstructers

[Verseau_bleu]

Sorry to bother you guys with another one of my silly questions...but how ofter should a protein reconstructer should be used. Can too much protein be a bad thing?

Also about maybe three days ago I use the Ion effective care treatment from sally's. Its suppose to be an intensive therapy protein rebuilder...my hair is still breaking..not alot but enough. Should I do it again and use something stronger? What I did was after I poo'd my hair I let the Ion stuff sit on my hair for about 15-20 minutes even though the bottled said ten. (i got sidetracked) Then I rinsed it out then deep conditioned. On top of that everyday I moisturize my hair at least two times and seal the moisture in with WHGO or my other oils. I also do the baggie method for my ends and use a satin scarf at night. Oh yeah and I co wash 2-3 times a week depending on how I feel. (I work in a dog grooming shop so my head feels dirty some times and co washing is the answer lol)
Is there something that I'm missing or doing wrong?

Once again thank you for you help!!

hi, i am new here as well but i think in the Sticky about breakage that too much protein can cause breakage.

How dumb of me!! lol.

I don't know I'm just a little confused. I don't know about what though. I'm been trying to moisturize my hair as often as i can...and when I take my hand through my hair I still get like breakage. It's very annoying and frustrating.

There was another thread about breaking/shedding and one lady reccomended this product: Essations Instant Hair Mender. It seemed to stop her and other ladies hair from shedding. I ordered some, but have yet to receive it in the mail. I've been using Surge 14 until then. Surge is slowing mine down alot. I spray my hair and scalp with it and put a plastic cap on at night (no rinse out).

Here is the link for the Essations product:

Hope this helps.

Hey girls, It seems like when I use ORS olive oil in the jar, and then spray s-curl on top of that I get nice and soft hair that is sheddless. Another product that I use that was recommended by many on this board is Mizani H2O night- time treatment. I use that stuff the recommended every two nights, and my hair barely sheds. I'm not sure if it's the ORS/S-curl combo or the Mizani but it seems to be working.

I am happy to annoucne my excessive shedding has ended. I have been dealing with this since April. I went back to my former stylist back home who gave me a protein treatment because she freaked out at all the hair that was being washed down the drain after my relaxer. It didn't phase me because like I said I have been dealing with this since April and all my labs I had done at my doctor came back normal.

I have not lost any hair since I have been back home and I am going on three washings so far. Unfortunately they could not sell me the bottle of the protein treament because they don't offer it retail.

I am pretty sure it's the treatment that has stopped it because I was doing nexxus emergencee protein treatments and used a reconstructor. Those just weren't doing the job for me.


I should have mentioned the product. IT's called Essations Instant hair Mender. It's supposed to halt shedding and breakage immediately. It really works.
