Komaza Care HAIR ANALYSIS Service - Rave!

Finally had my 3 month follow up in month ?um :lol: I don't know. I really did procrastinate.

Because my hair was so damaged at the first call I didn't get the same consultation as the other ladies. She couldn't tell what type of hair I had or anything about my hair. She just knew it was damaged beyond repair. So I haven't had a regimen to follow to date.

So my hair is growing out, but my ends are a mess as usual. When I spoke to her by phone and described my ends she said I may have mid-shaft splits. So I sent the samples in finally for a confirmation. In the meantime I colored my hair but this time, I followed it up with a protein treatment, trimmed my ends and then did another protein treatment. So looking at my ends this weekend I was thinking I was going to have to trim another inch because they look terrible.

Talked to Rene tonight, and she was excited that the bulb damage with my follicles has reversed and my follicles are looking healthier. She said she didn't expect to see that much turnaround for another year. But I know I stay on top of my scalp treatments and my hair is regrowing, so I wasn't surprised.

She says she sees damage in the back of my hair which she though might be the elastic in my bonnet. But I think it is either the head bands I wear or the shoestring that I use for my puff. virtuenow, stay away from the shoestring :lol: I will look for a satin strip to put my puffs up with.

She says she sees mid-shaft splits and breakage but mostly breakage. She thinks doing protein treatments every other week should help that, especially since I color my hair. She didn't think I needed to do another trim since I dusted a few weeks ago. She said she didn't think the mid-shaft splits had travel that much.

She thinks my problem now is dryness. She thinks that if I resolve my dryness issue my hair will be in good shape. She wants me to moisturize my hair daily and to not touch my hair if it hasn't been moisturized.

I told her this was a tough period because my hair is so short. I don't have a protective style so I am constantly manipulating and pulling on it. And I don't moisturize every day because it causes my hair to shrink so I have to over manipulate it or I have to put in 50 million twist which take too long.

So we agreed that waht I can try is to moisturize it every night and do pin curls or really lose bantu knots.

I was expecting to hear that I needed to cut drastically. So I was surprised that she said that she didn't really see anything to worry about and that what I am seeing now can be easily turned around. So I am happy with the follow up. Not I just have to see if I can really turn my hair around with protein and daily moisturizing.

Thanks for the update. Just wondered what these scalp treatments are?

They are things that I do on my own. A few years ago I realized I was going bald at the top of my head, so I started my own scalp treatments. It's a combination of things 1) mudwashes, 2) scalp treatments with AO conditioners 3)castor oil blend with essential oils + massages.

I've been doing a combination of these for a year to a year in a half. Now my bald spot is just a thin area at the crown.

I took an aggressive approach because I refuse to be bald

Thanks so much. I have a thin spot at the back of my head which I have been treating with castor oil, but recently got lazy and stopped for the past week. Good to hear a success story.:grin:

Good Evening Ladies,

I'm JaiiLa (pronounced Jay La) I'm new to the board.. This is my first time posting... :O) I've been lurking in the wood, reading, researching and subbing to a few threads.. Finally decided to purchase... YaY!!

I've been watching and reading this thread closely and decided to make a purchase today for the hair analysis! Because I see a lot of you wonderful ladies have been getting good result and reviews. I'm giving up on being a PJ.. It's costly and it's not benefiting my hair... I've been struggling with my hair (dry, brittle, tangling, ssks the whole nine) after one year of being on my healthy hair journey.. I'm texlaxed with 3-4 inches of bone straight hair (an inch or 2 Away from APL)... My ends tend to stick together.. My ends are rebellious.. I hope with the analysis I'll get answers

Welcome JaiiLa. I have had those crazy ends as well. I hope you get the answers you are looking for. Looking forward to hearing about your consultation.

I can't figure out where to enter it :perplexed I don't want to click "Order" without entering it someplace beforehand but I don't see where besides "Discount Coupon code" which is something else.

I think it was in the sign up page. When you registered for the website, there was a little box on the bottom left for that. I missed it too myself, but it's cause I was rushing. When I was about to order I realized my mistake but I went and hit order anyways cause I wanted to secure my spot. I emailed them about it, and as I said earlier I got a refund for the discount and my referral code owner got their rewards points.

It should appear on the page after the page containing the "Discount Coupon" code. So when you see "Discount Coupon Code" continue and you will see the box for the referral code.

I just received an email stating that they want me to mail in new samples because they don't do "before and afters" only "the current state" of my hair. I posted a while ago that I was about to send my samples but I was really close to doing a few treatments on my hair. The treatments are temporary and have to be used when needed. I wasn't sure when I would get my results back and I didn't want to throw off the results. Like the Roux porosity control conditioner. I was worried that it would make my hair seem normal and they'd give me the results based on that.

So I asked what to do and was told to send in samples before and after my wash with Roux and after my flat iron so they could see if the Roux was good for my hair and if I had any heat damaged. Getting the samples ready took a long time, so did separating and labeling them as they asked. That was a waste of time :ohwell:


Oh well about the comparisons since it wasn't a part of their service (still, they offered), but I'm irritated that after all this time I'm told to do it all over again. :nono: Why not use the after, which would have been current state of my hair when I sent it in? I'm thinking they don't have them anymore :look: My samples were from late December and very early January. I guess a positive is that I'll be sending in a more current state of my hair; on the other hand if the wait is just as long as it was this time, it'll be just as outdated by the time they get back to me. I get that they're overwhelmed with orders but for the price this was a very long wait for nothing.




They sent me an email that they had received my sample on the 11th. Then they sent me the email above (which I replied to the same day) on the 22nd, the day I should I have received my analysis. I still haven't heard anything back. No response to my question asking if they could use the latest sample they have (assuming they still had it) or if I have to send another one in.

I just sent them another message. So on top of getting back to me late in the first place, there's even more additional wait time with them not responding. Since they're accepting orders again that will probably add more wait time, especially if I have to mail something in again. :perplexed I've been collecting new samples, but I hennaed my roots (for grays) but it really cut down on my shedding so I'm not getting much. Any other time that would be a good thing. :lol:

Maybe I should have asked them publicly on Facebook.

How long does it take typically to get the sample kit in the mail? After stalking this thread for nearly 6 months I finally ordered. I wanted to do it 6 months ago but everytime I tried they were sold out. Finally I got lucky. So how long do I have to wait? I'm so nervous.

I think you should call them. They should have your email but you never know. So call them, this weekend and leave a voice mail letting them know why you are calling. And then let them know you will call back Tuesday or Wednesday if you haven't heard back. Or something of that nature.

The newer ladies will need to answer. I'm not sure how this new process works.

For you ladies that just ordered, I wanted to let you know that it was about a 30 day turnaround from the time they got my sample until the time I got my analysis. The email said 10 days but it was at least 20. Just wanted to let you know.

I have a feeling that they will be sold out this weekend. Those that get their samples in the fastest will be the first to receive their consultations.

Just want you to be prepared.

Yeah, I've noticed from some of the posts that they changed some things. Like no more follow up. I'm ok with that. I just want to know what's going on with my hair. I have 2 spots that that are giving me trouble. And nothing I've been trying is working.

Make sure you put each section in a separate plastic bag and label it. You may know to do that I was just making sure.

What kind of trouble are they giving you?

Thanks. I was thinking about how I was going to do that. The middle and the back left are so broken off and short. Tried extra moisture nothing changed. Tried heavier protein still the same. And my scalp is sore and itchy lately in those areas. I've been massaging daily with oils but it is too early to see if that has done anything. I am at my wits end. I have no trouble retaining in any other area. I get normal shedding and some breakage when I'm too rough but that's all. But those 2 spots are really just :nono: I hope they can tell me what's wrong there.

I got my analysis (after buying last year lol....totally my fault for waiting this long for my results) and the news wasn't as bad as I expected. So I'm going to implement the changes she's suggested and will report back on my progress. I'm going to give it a few months as she suggested to see if my hair will do better.

Thank you Faith for the heads up! Anticipation is a killer.

Hm...if it used to be this way then I think it changed. I had to do it the way ronie said. As I was already registered, I just re-registered (with another email addy) using the code and it worked that way. The discount was already applied before clicking "checkout"!

I'm in Canada so I have no clue if they're going to send me the kit or if I just have to mail in my hair...I'm so reaaady!
