"Light" protein suggestions?

[Whimsy]

Any suggestions for products with a "light" dose of protein in it?

I feel like I need more protein and more moisture since I colored but the protein products I try kinda make my hair hardish and kinda rough feeling.

Any ideas?

And if you think a lighter protein is not the answer plz lemme know what you think.

I used a dudley protein, it came in a bottle, i forget the exact name.

Thanks girls!

I mix some plain yogurt with oil/s and honey. It's a light protein and leaves my coils feeling uber moisturized and smooth as well.

Try the egg and conditioner protein treatment. Here is a video by Macherieamour of Healthy Textures:

AO GPB is a good one.

This a good thread!

I've lurked for a minute before actually joining LHCF so I'm a quasi-new comer and have learned a few things but what I can't seem to get right is this moisture/protein balance thing. Even though it's said that protein is good for our hair, my hair acts like I'm feeding it arsenic whenever I use a protein conditioner! It practically chokes and gags and then it just starts breaking off! I guess it didn't get the memo.

Right now I'm using ORS Mayo and even though that's touch and go sometimes, I have to use something because I have to balance out the moisture or else my hair will still rebel against me. erplexed

Who knows.
My hair is just weird.

So, thanks in advance to all of those that answer!

LeKair Cholesterol Plus is my light protein boost. It's very moisturizing.

MSA beat me to the AO GPB. Now that I have a lot more natural hair, ORS Replenishing (original formula) is NICE. I know some say it isn't protein but for ME, it is a light protein/moisture balanced conditioner.

a mixture of plain yogurt and 1 egg is a really great light protein treatment. i'm a colored natural as well. i try to use this every two weeks-keeps my hair strong.

I'd Try Giovanni Nutra-Fix for a "light" protein treatment.

Giovanni 50:50, Aubrey Organics GPB (which will give you a balance of Protein/Moisture) and also Ion Intensive Reconstructor is also the perfect balance of Protein & Moisture in one product.

I like the Silk Elements MegaSilk Olive Oil treatment with Silk Amino Acids. This product was reviewed by Traycee at "Keep It Simple Sistah," and it was great.

I take a protein condish like Garnier L&S and mix it half and half with a moisture con.

I cannot bring myself to buy one more bottle of anything.
