Which should I use first...Aphogee or Porosity Control?

[Phoenix11]

I'm relaxed and my hair is dry, breaking, shedding and won't hold a curl.

I plan on using both Aphogee 2 step and Roux Porosity Control. I'm just not sure which order I should use them or if it matters at all.

They do not proform the same function....correct?

aphogee 2 step is a heavy protein treatment & porosity control is used to seal the cuticules. I think you should use the aphogee 2 step first & as a final rinse the porosity control. Try to get more opinions b4 you try this.

Although I've never tried the 2 Step....Please moisturize your Hair Afterwards to the Nth Degree.

I will do my PC as my Final Rinse after I complete my Protein & Moisture Treatments, to Lock in the moisture, seal & flatten my cuticle and restore my hair back to the proper PH Balance.

That's correct, they perform separate functions. What does your current regimen look like? What moisturizers are you using? Are you Lye or No Lye relaxed?

I purchased both of the same products myself on Saturday. I used the Roux PC Shampoo and Conditioner and my hair feels much smoother. I did not use the Aphogee with it (I was planning to as well) because I a bit intimidated by what I've heard about it. I tried to find some info online about using the Aphogee and Roux PC together but found nothing. Have you used Aphogee before with success? If not, I would recommend Nexxus Emergencee Treatment. It's not as hard core as Aphogee and I saw great results from it.

I suggest you use the whichever protein treatment first and see how that works. If you're satisfied I would then go ahead and use the Roux with a Moisturize DC on your next wash day.

When I use it I do my Aphogee 2 step the week before my relaxer, I mix the PC with my moisturizing conditioner and then get under the steamer and rinse. So I use it after the Aphogee but with my moisturizing DC!
