you ladies slay me with these types of post...........ok i'm weak, i ordered.
they came FAST!!!! i flatironed with it today, had to use almost both vials including a tiny bit just before i flatironed (i cheated and got a couple more samples via my daughter just incase i needed it)
wash, conditioned w/aubrey gbp, applied to dampish hair and because i started so late at night, i just twirled it up until today. the 2 vials covered surprisingly well but i'm glad my hair was damp as i don't think 2 would have done it. (*** ETA: 2 didn't do it afterall, i've got a 3rd vial that's 1/2 empty :S ) i just applied it in small chunks and brushed it through.
i undid the twirly things and warm/cool blow dried to finish. instructions said a brush wouldn't be necessary but i used my denman to help stretch the hair out some more.
i flatironed on *gulp* 5 with my maxiglide and this is how it came out:

Wow that is some beautiful hair! It's soooooooooooo. thick. Lovely
I ordered some (don't tell anyone I'm on the buy nothing challenge). I need to flatiron it to trim soon.

I wont. MB is a REQUIREMENT to have.
Pretty! If you want it smoother, I got an email from Victor Sabino suggesting (after you put MB on roots to protect hair from heat and brush it down) you hold the flat iron at the roots for 3 seconds and then pull it down. I think I posted it some pages back in detail. Either way GORGEOUS and THICK.you ladies slay me with these types of post...........ok i'm weak, i ordered.

I used some today on my hair and the verdict is still out. I don't believe I used enough or used it correctly, I rollerset, wrap and put a little MB on my hair. The next day I put a tiny amount of Hydratherma daily growth lotion and then some more MB. Here are my results.

Why do ya'll have to be so convincing?
thanks lovinmylocs and luckiestdestiny.
ld, thanks for the tip! i was actually too scared to leave let that iron sit too long in any one spot- maybe if i get my bold up, i'll try it that way.
i'm convinced that this stuff works. it poured early yesterday evening and the air stayed damp through the night and this morning and if that wasn't enough to convince me than i had the biggest surprise this morning when i too off my scarf.
even the hairline stayed smooth (dare i say relaxer smooth?) through the night. i usually get some type of reversion down by the roots (hubby likes a very warm room). no poof, frizz, nothing.
i'd like to try this out with in a natural style like some twists on wet hair or plaits for a braid out, maybe even set them under my hooded dyer. i bet it come out really nice too.
gonna take this through the end of the week and see if i still feel the same.
ETA - almost forgot to add that i have zip, zero, nada shrinkage!!! the way i put it up for the night is the same way i woke up this morning.

for real. i'm going to straighten my hair in the next week or so (first time in years), but i already bought some of the chi silk infusion everyone raves about. is the moisture block also a heat protectant, and is it widely available in stores? are the free samples no longer available? when i googled sabino moisture block samples, the link takes me to a page that doesn't work anymore.

Cool just make sure to apply extra moisture block at the roots for protection. It does protect and I completely trust that. Also your comment about shrinkage! I so forgot to mention that but it's so true. I am the queen of shrinkage! My lower brastrap hair will revert in seconds from being flat ironed up to about an inch or two pass my shoulders. Okay maybe a day, but still. Not now, it stays where it should stay gosh darn it when you flat iron! I'm sure it will work great in just a natural style too, as I did a pony set with it, and my hair was so smooth, and soft afterwards, and did not revert either.thanks lovinmylocs and luckiestdestiny.

I got my samples last Friday. I'm like 10+ weeks post with OCT newgrowth (ya'll know that's not ya average newgrowth!!). I sat and looked at the samples for like 30 minutes (I'm tryin to avoid heat) and decided to go ahead and use them.
I co-washed, leaving just a tiny bit of conditioner in my hair. Then I applied some MB to my hair, following the instructions on the little card. My hair dried SO quickly!!! I applied a small little dab to each section before flat ironing w/ my Solias on 375......![]()

My hair was on point. I added a lil bit of Organix Coconut Milk Anti Breakage Serum for extra *bling*, and wow. I haven't been that satisfied w/ my hair in a long time. I'm SO FRUSTRATED that my pics didn't come out; I dunno WHAT happened. But I got tons of compliments all night long. Even after getting really hot that nite, I got no puffiness at the roots. Just shine & swang.
My hair lasted thru two workouts, which is great for me. I just set the ends on rollers and let it air dry.
I am most def. getting a full sized bottle for when I wear my hair out.![]()

By the way I've done tons of research on this stuff, in this forum from ya'll and through emailing and talking to Sabino company. It waterproofs your hair and provides a barrier from heat. Infact, I liked that Victor Sabino explained it's a more advanced heat protectant because it doesn't evaporate with the heat as other protectants that have water in them do. You know that experiment that you did in science class with heat and water? So anyways that makes sense to me. Because it's completely waterproof and non water based, it stays there and continues to protect the hair through all heat styling. If you look back in the threads, there's an email he sent where he says none of his clients have heat damage. And take one look at Lala's hair. She uses it all the time, that convinced me. She's also the one who turned me on to it.for real. i'm going to straighten my hair in the next week or so (first time in years), but i already bought some of the chi silk infusion everyone raves about. is the moisture block also a heat protectant, and is it widely available in stores? are the free samples no longer available? when i googled sabino moisture block samples, the link takes me to a page that doesn't work anymore.
I think the next time you should try it with only the MB, no the lotion.
