I did my 2nd bkt last week. I'm still struggling to find products to use for aftercare. I looked at serveral local stores and could not find mill creek.
Is there a poo and condish that have no sodium but does contain keratin? Talk about finding a needle in hay stack!
At first I tried AO poo and I felt stripped. I'm going to cowash for a while and see how it works out. Today I used silicone mix (because I had a jar in the back of the cabinet). It does have mineral oil in it so I still want to find something else.
You can purchase the MillCreek Biotin shampoo and conditioner from www.Vitacost.com They have very reasonable prices.
Sally's beauty supply sells a keratin protein filler that I think I'm going to add to one of my natural conditioners. I found I had quite a few that didn't have SC in them but they didn't have Keratin. I can make my own keratin condish using this. I really like the MillCreek Biotin too.
Can be used to make an "excellent protein hair reconstructing conditioner" by diluting it with 1/3 water.

A thread that talks about the protein filler
You have to figure out the right amount to use. I plan to dilute it and work my way up based on my results.
