I really can't take too much protein at all since I am natural, so I just use some in my usual bi-monthly DC. I also can't do the Heavy Dose of protein like others can.

Im currently using Aubrey GPB and Henna ( I know technically Henna isnt protein but it helps build your hair strands)

I use aphogee two step every six to eight weeks.


I also use Hairveda moisturePro which is a light protein.

I've been using Chicoro's mix with Aphogee 2 minute Keratin Treatment as my Reconstructor in the mix. My hair looooves this stuff. My fine strands get mushy with too much moisture. Still trying to figure out my moisture/protein balance, though.

 

[Jewell]

Im using Aphogee 2-min Keratin Reconstructor mainly, but alternating with Nexxus PhytoOrganics Babassu Mud Revitalizing Hair Treatment and ORS Replenishing Pak.

[Pinkerton]

I just whip up an egg with some EVOO and let that sit under a cap for an hour, or however long I feel like doing it. I used to use Aphogee but was kind of over the smell and the mess.

 

[JustGROWwithIt]

I was using Megatek weekly but I ran out of that and am now using Aphogee 2 step.

How do you use it?

I have a bottle too. It's Great.

I've put mine in a Spritz Bottle and spritz my previously relaxed ends before my T/U.

When I 1st got it (early in my HHJ), I was adding it to moisturizing DC'ers (as a balancer-I hate mixing stuff), so now I just use it on previously relaxed ends.

This product is not exactly a protein treatment but I forget the difference off the top of my head.
I can PM you what was discussed here years ago about this. Let me know...

@Fine4s

Please share what you know.

When I personally use the term Protein, I'm using Reconstructor & Protein interchangeably. Nexxus is a Polymedic Reconstructor.

I think what I've learned about a Reconstructor, it has the ability to actually go deeper than a basic Protein Rx because of it's molecular make up and actually fill in gaps/holes/binds to the hair etc....

However, when I say protein, in some instances, it could actually be a reconstructor.

So what else do you know?
