What's the best Protein Treatment for stretching? Trying to avoid detangling drama!

[lovleelilie]

Hello Ladies! Hoping to get some feedback pleeeeaaase! I've gotten my hair moisturized but now am in need of protein b/c the breakage is still happening. I'm stretching so I'm scared to death that my hair will be too hard for stess-free detangling.

I've heard not-so-great things about Aphogee 2 minute - that it may be too strong. I've heard adding egg to my conditioner may not be enough protein to stop breakage in it's tracks. I'm now stongly considering AO GPB b/c it's gentle....any feedback on it? Or, any suggestions for other protein options that will work w/out making it impossible to detangle? Any help would be much appreciated! Thx!!!

What's your hair type and what's the cause of your breakage?
I use Aphogee 2 Min weekly and I don't have a problem with tangles or crunchy hair. I'm 4b something.

Also, there is the Aphogee 2 Minute and then the Super Aphogee Treatment that makes your hair hard. Just an FYI in case you were getting them confused.

Thx for the speedy reply texasqt. No, I know the difference between the two. I guess I'm just paranoid b/c i'm stretching (4b/4c) and my line of demarcation is so fragile. My hair has also thinned due to overprocessing. Soooo, I'm trying to find alternatives to the Aphogee 2 minute b/c a few ppl have complained that it didn't work for them. Were you stretching when you used it?

I use Cantu Shea butter leave in the night before cowashing... applied like a relaxer to the line of demarcation.

I have fine hair, relaxed with Mizani bb/fc

Millennia mud Reconstructor from Sally's, it's the only protein that left my hair soft. My hair usually hates protein. It has volcanic ash in it, which is great for hair
