      Unfortunately no, but I can help you get started a little
      1. Figure out your hair porosity
      2. Do you have hard water
      3. How is the environment you live in. Example: you live in Florida where really humid or Arizona where is dry . Is the building you work in very humid?
      4. What kind of curl pattern do you have and what type of curl do you want to have
      5. Look up products reviews before buying
      6. Look up TH-camr beginner video who hair look like your or is close to your hair type
      First check out Gena Marie beginner video and. Mane by Mell channel too between those two has most of the information you need
      7. Finding the Right fit for your hair will take time, you will go through a “ transitioning period “ with your hair.
      8. Have fun with it.

    Good info Gena. I have very hard water where I live. It changed the color of my hair and weakened my waves, so I made my own chelating rinse. I mixed about 1/3 ACV with 2/3 water in a 12 oz squeeze bottle and added 1 teaspoon EDTA powder that I purchased. It needs to sit on your hair for a few minutes, then rinse. It works! I use it once a week.

    Not trying to be difficult or pose a gotcha lol, but the Curl Talk Bond Building says "with protein" on the label. Just wondering if there's a difference between the protein in it and other types of protein, maybe? I think I might be overdoing the protein because my hair has almost no elasticity, but I also know it's helped in the past so I'm trying to find a good balance 😊

    • @GenaMarie
      @GenaMarie  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, there is a difference between amino acids and proteins. The Curl Talk shampoo contains "Rice Amino Acids" which is not the same as an ingredient such as "Hydrolyzed rice protein." From what I've researched, amino acids are the building blocks of protein and do not behave in the same way as full-blown proteins. Amino acids are able to penetrate and absorb into the hair, so they don't sit on the surface causing that stiff feeling that can happen from full proteins. Because of their low chance of causing protein overload, they are a great way for people with protein-sensitive hair to strengthen their hair. I should have clarified this difference in the video. I realize that NYM labels this as "with protein" but I think it is still suitable for all.
