Protein after reconstructor

[Trinity1]

Hi ladies,

I'm trying to battle a minor breakage problem. It's usually around 5 broken hairs every time I style it or manipulate in any way. It's not shedding, it's breakage. I just tried using the Ion Reconstructor Keratin Protein Builder to try to fight it but still ended up with 5-7 broken hairs when detangling. Next I want to try Motions CPR to see if that will work. How long should I wait to apply that since I just used the Reconstructor? I was thinking maybe a week?


Thanks,
Trinity1

suggest you to use micro micro ring to avoid detangling

Hair will break from time to time so 5 broken off hairs really isnt that big of a deal to me. I think you should chill with so much protein and use a moisturizing conditioner for awhile. Try detangling in the shower with a giant comb after you apply conditioner.

Good luck sis.

CPR isn't really too harsh so you could get away with using it in less than a week.

However, 5 broken hairs really isn't bad at all so you may not need the extra protein.

OP, don't let me hurt you. 5 hairs? Honey, I thought that I needed to get new glasses or drugs coz I thought my eyes were merging numbers together to look as one. I thought you were asking about 555 hairs. 5 hairs? You make me feel like the most careless LHCFer. I don't think I'd notice if I broke 50 hairs.

Y'all are not playing!

I don't see how extensions will help the OP with a breakage problem. erplexed

ETA: I would go for moisture over protein if you have already used a reconstructor.

5 hairs is nothing to worry about, seriously...

LOL!! I love this reply. Thank you Nonie! I guess it's not much to worry about. I guess because I havent really noticed breakage like that for years now and all of a sudden I notice it. Maybe it was doing that all along but I'm just more aware of it.

I appreciate your honestly

I use a light med/reconstructor or light protein weekly.

Always followed up with a Moisturizing Conditioner.

I wish I lost only five hairs. Nonie is totally right....anyways your hair looks good.

Thank you IDareT'sHair. I've been deep conditioning twice weekly with Silk Elements.

Thank you Ms blue for the compliment
