I had my Komaza Hair Analysis with Jenn on Tuesday and although I'm doing well with my hair regimen, a protein treatment was recommended.
I'm natural, type 3a/4c hair, normal porosity with medium strands. I have some mid shaft splits that the protein treatment will bind (not repair) until such time as I trim them off I suppose, with trims every 2 - 3 months.
It seems that walking out of Drybar with half done hair was a good decision. Jenn feels my hair regimen is simple such that the damage she saw may have come from the blow out. Details of that experience are here: http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=692361&highlight=drybar
Mid shaft splits:
weak point:
The problem is I've NEVER done a hard core protein treatment.
I used Aphogee 2 minute keratin reconstructor a few times (only bought 1 bottle) but I have never tried the Aphogee 2 step protein treatment or any other hard core protein treatment or reconstructor that requires a deep conditioner afterward.
I use Aubrey GPB weekly (on dry hair for 15 minutes) but was told to use something additional on a bi-weekly basis.
I would guess hydrolyzed keratin is the best protein ingredient since it mimics hair?
Any recommendations?
