Redken Products for 4b Hair

[RUBY]

Do any 4b hair types use any Redken products, especially the anti snap leave in treatment. What were your results? Thanks in advance for any responses.

Ok, I'm not 4B, but I love Redken, the whole line. Its high, but I think its worth it. I use the Anti-Snap, the So-Long leave-in heat activated spray for long hair, and the Extreme shampoo and conditioner for distressed hair. Buy the sample bottles first to test it out. I believe the sample bottle of Anti-Snap is like $3.50. It lasts forever though.

i'm not 4b but im very coily 4a and i love the antisnap. it helps me lengthen the time bw tups. it makes the newgrowth and relaxed hair not snap at the meeting point for me. hence the name....
ADF23***how do you use the so long leave in heat spray??

I tried the Allsoft shampoo and love it but it does not detangle as well as CON. I was not crazy about the Allsoft conditioner. I plan to try the Allsoft Heavy Cream conditioner some day.

I have 4b coarse. Is the antisnap used wet or dry? What makes this product better than others?

I have used the Extreme: Shampoo, Conditioner, Anti Snap, Deep Red and Cat products and i loved them too. But they contain alot of protein. The Anti Snap does exactly what it says. That's great on new growth. So I use only 2 times a month

Same here but mine is also fine (strands that is). I have tried both ways (wet when I wash and dry when my hair needs moisture ... I hated s-curl) and because of it, I'm able to maintain my 18weeks post relaxer (edges and surrounding; 28 weeks) without hassle.
To say that it is better than others will just be an opinion because while a lot of ladies here rave about the s-curl, it made my fine hair too weak and susceptible to breakage for every little reason.

I also have 4b hair that is fine. What products gives you the best result?

Also, what strength relaxer have you or do use?

 

[RUBY]

What product would be the on the same level as Redken antisnap? for comparision purposes so I have an idea of the results I would get from it before shelling out for it cause it is expensive

Well, I have been successful @ narrowing certain things as indispensible for my hair.
Relaxer: still undecided... may go back to optimum no lye, hate soft&beautiful organic no lye for drying out my hair
Shampoo: creme of nature is a keeper
Clarifying shampoo: Pantene is currently being experimented upon
Protein conditioner: Joico Kpac is a keeper ... may try audrey's gbp
Moisturizing conditioner: Clairol renewal 5x conditioner for colored/permed hair under experimentation
Leave in conditioner: Redken's anti-snap ... definitely a keeper
Hair cream: ORS Carrot Oil ... presently on my 3rd container and loving it
Natural oil: Castor oil ... mixing it with my carrot oil extends it's life span and my wallet's

I do like the AllSoft products. Next month is Redken month at Trade Secret. So they should be having buy one get one free again on the Litre sizes.

I bought the Anti-Snap today and some type of light hold cream. I haven't tried them yet but I was pleased with the texture of the anti-snap. I rubbed it on my hands and it absorbed just like lotion. Hopefully, I will be pleased with the products.

 

[fine_beauty]

I hope so too considering the cost. Looking forward to some good news soon!

 

[tekmommie]

I use Anti Snap, Heat Treat for long hair, Extreme Shampoo...too much to list. I love Redken products, well worth the money. If used right they will last a long time. Oh yeah Heat Treat works well on dry hair too!

My staple products are Giovanni and L'Anza so I am used to the cost but when a product works well you don't have to use a lot. My L'Anza shampoo and conditioner lasts a year.
