What is the name of the gel .............

[LaVinya]

that you can only find in New York, that is used to straighten out your hair without a relaxer?? My co-worker says a friend of hers uses this gel to straighten out her natural hair, but it's not sold here in Maryland. It's a black gel used by Dominicans.

I don't know the name, but is it a permanent straightening (like a relaxer) or temporary (like pressing)?

bump...I'd love to know this

 

[morehairplease]

me too!

I think you're talking about Hene . I've never used it...

 

[Tai]

Sassygirl,
Do you know where you can buy Hene online?

 

[sassygirl125]

Nope. Sorry! Your best bet would be to check stores (real stores or online stores) that sell Spanish and/or Indian beauty products. Or e-mail customer service at sickbay.biz. He's really good about adding products if enough people request them.

Shows you how much a really DIDN'T pay attention...

I just realized they have it english too. Just click the word "english" at top.

This sounds a lot like Henna to me... though. I'd be interested in getting this for my mom but if it's just Henna, I'd get her henna. this is what it says:

Edited: I picked the wrong product. Sorry.

Thanks for the info. Hene?

I'll ask my coworker if that was the name. She says you can only get it in New York. She knows someone who gets her friend in New York to buy it and bring it to her here in Baltimore. Thanks Sassygirl125!

 

[Tai]

I'll ask Mark at sickbay. I'm a tad leery because it says that it dyes the hair black too and I like my dark brown hair.

 

[sassygirl125]

You're all welcome!

I just remembered the thread where I first heard about it. Brazilian Hair Secrets . I saved the web page, but not the post.
