Yeah I haven't seen your hair in a while. You were posting strong then I lost track of you.
I got disgusted and did a personal PS challenge. :lol: No, not really, but the straight pieces are annoying, the crown be messing up, and life was busy. Meh. I'm back on it now. I posted some pics recently, in the CP thread. It looks exactly the same as before I cut it, maybe a tad longer... lemme see... here we go!

OMG!!!! That neutral protein filler is awesome!! I mixed it with my normal moisturizing dc and left it on for around 30 min. Then let my hair dry in braids to prepare for twisting. When I took out those braids even though my hair wasn't fully dry it was super defined in the braid pattern. My hair has been having such issues with definition when doing braid outs but this stuff here had the waves popping. That just confirmed my feeling that I needed more protein.

My hair also felt really nice. I love that stuff.

@YvetteWithJoy was it you that mentioned Biosilk Rock Hard Gelee?

If it was, have you used it with a wash and go before? I bought some and I really like it for slicking for buns and the roots of twists. The hold honestly is Rock Hard. I'm wondering if a wash and go with it would lock out tangles.

Yes, I mention it every now and then. @Alma Petra recommended it to me. I use it as my edge control now. I'm in love with it.

Please try it for a wash and go and give me advice after you get it right. I tried it once, and I posted pics of it here in some thread somewhere of day 1, 2, etc. I was trying to make 5 days because of how rock hard the hold is.

I got a wash and go I liked, but the hold underwhelmed me given my expectations for it. I didn't try again because it's expensive and I used a whole bunch: I have a lot of hair, density-wise.

I'll try to find the thread.

This is exactly why I want the Phillips ProCare Dryer... that needs a converter to work on this side of the world. :rolleyes:

Yes exactly! Start expanding the attachments for hair dryers. That makes no sense to be charging all that money for the one blowdryer, granted with different parts. But I'm sure they'd make a killing with attachments since they'd cost less to make and are more likely to have people buying it again and again.

Oh. It wasn't for a wash and go; it was for a twist out.

Here's the thread. I have pics on page 1 and page 2 of the thread: https://longhaircareforum.com/threads/i-need-a-gel-that-makes-my-hair-crunchy.825883/

@imaginary I'd be the fool to shell out the cash for it and the replacements too if it were available here.

My heart hurts to spend so much, but you get more options, so it seems like the better choice. I also wonder if the airflow is strong enough or hot/cold enough on them, since that's my main concern with blowdryers.

While googling that one, I saw a cheaper option that was selling through qvc if you have your heart set on it. Calista Style Dryer. It seems to be cheaper on qvc than amazon but I didn't click the link. Oh and there are a whole bunch of knock offs of 7 in 1 dryers on ebay.

Time to go looking at things I do not need. :look:
