I loved using aphogee for years but I tried out using olaplex and Redken brands and let me tell you, my hair has NEVER been this healthy and long. The olaplex strengthens and repairs and is a bond builder. My hair is a LOT silkier and softer. It is not a protein treatment though, more for the internal bonds of the hair. For protein treatment for your cuticles then Redken extreme will be your holy grail. I have been using this brand for two months now and boy I am not disappointed. The Redken extreme anti-snap leave-in really does reduce breakage, smooth split ends, protects and rebuilds hair surface and strengthens hair’s core. I am natural and have been stuck on just a little past shoulder length for a while and hair was still a bit frizzy when wash days and styling but 2 months into those products and my hair is soooo much more easier to manage and is nearing armpit length. The texture is a lot softer than I ever had. It works for me so hopefully it works for others too. I bought the olaplex 3 treatment, shampoo and conditioner that I would use probably once every 2 months as a DEEP INTERNAL treatment, depending on the state of your hair. Then the Redken can be used be used daily and weekly for your protein treatment. I have the Redken shampoo and conditioner, the extreme anti snap leave in treatment, the Redken extreme strength builder plus hair mask , the Redken one united all in one leave in conditioner with 25 benefits and the Redken extreme play safe for heat styling.
Olaplex didn’t work on my relaxed hair i still use aphogee 2 min conditioner as protein just bought redken heard great things about it. Im 30 weeks post no extreme shedding.
@@awwyeahme2 aww shame about the olaplex. As I’m natural, I can’t say much for relaxed hair. Hopefully the redken products will work better in helping to maintain your hair, together with aphogee. Sometimes you have to play around and see what works best for your hair type. Sometimes we forget that everyone is not the same and what works for some, won’t work for others .
That 5 in 1 reconstructor is an old school get your hair together business. My shedding season is coming up as the weather begins to change so I will definitely purchase a bottle
I can honestly say since going back to relaxer Redken products has been everything to me. I use the redken extreme length line. I also use the Fitzgerald line as well and then when I’m trying to be budget friendly the L’Oréal repair 10 I think it’s called.
Thank you for sharing. After 11 years of being natural, I went back to relaxed hair. I just purchased those products a couple of weeks ago. Will be trying them very soon.
Your hair videos are everything!!!!! I just spent the early morning watching your videos let me get my notepad for this one📝 I love the products you suggest!!!!
Thank you! The products worked for me and I now have close to no shedding. Literally maybe 1 strand if I am really touching up my hair. I will do my second wash this week! Very grateful for your help 😊
Your hair is pretty oh, yes we all have a shedding phase I remember when I had one and I needed protein I didn't know exactly what was wrong, to make a long story short I started using proteins and my hair came back to its Glory so if you're relaxed I feel that you should have proteins on a monthly basis. I did do a video about this a few years back and I believe that's the problem with some women they need protein and they don't know oh, thank you ever so kindly God bless you 🌸
Yes. Thanks for this video. I always have a mental breakdown when washing my hair 😂😂 it shears like crazy!!! Definitely will be purchasing these products
Looking good girl!! I use aphogee normally with my relaxers and it made a huge difference for me. But I will certainly check this out when ever I'm thinking of trying something new.
I love that Shampoo and Conditioner It's definitely works wonders on my hair. I also love the 5 in 1. My stylist has been using it on me for years. It's helping with my set back due to covid
Very informative video! I need to start focusing more on a consistent clarifying routine. I’m going to try the Affirm products per your recommendation! Thank you!!
Hey Meg! I did a protein treatment 2 days ago, 2 1/2 weeks post relaxer. I used the ORS Mayo, Shampoo and Conditioner. I can’t wait to see the results and decide whether or not this may be beneficial to my relaxed hair growth.
@@ebz05 I used precise for 15yrs never had bad experience. My last relaxer a week ago I used affirms no lye sensitive scalp relaxer and I really like it :)
Just ordered! I’ve been looking for a good protein treatment for my texlaxed hair. I’ve been using a keratin deep conditioner for chemically treated hair, but it wasn’t quite enough. My hair felt great, but I noticed I had soo much shedding over the summer. I ended up just chopping 2 inches off. Hopefully the 5 in 1 will help me retain length better. Thanks!
filha DoAltissimo just a store brand black tea. I normally brew 2-3 bags over night to use on my wash day. It’s the last step after you wash and condition.
Have you ever tried ayverda hair products? It’s all natural, products like henna, amla fenegreek. My hair is thin like yours and because of these products my hair became so much thicker and healthier. Henna is a all natural protein.
I swear by ayurvedic bc I'm 100 sure it's from mother nature and they work. Brahmi, binrajh, hibiscus, fenugreek, amla, shikakai, and Henna.ALL of them are Bae!!
You know, I went out and got this today and realised they changed the ingredients. I can’t see any protein in the ingredient list. I will still try it though. The website says there is keratin in it, but unless keratin also has a different name, I can’t see it in the list at all.
Hey, I really hope you see my comment and reply. I have a few questions. I’m still natural transitioning to become texlaxed. 1. At the start of 2020 I’ve been putting heat to my natural hair and in the summer I neglected my hair. I kept washing it barely putting moisture in it. Dyed it jet black like 3 times. Some parts have broken off but now, I’m taking care of my hair again and want to relax my hair in December. In one of your videos you said don’t relax damage hair, should I still relax in December? I’m deep conditioning, I’m using all natural products, I’m using protein, oiling my scalp etc. 2. When relaxed should I only use products that tend to chemical processed hair? Being natural I used Ayurveda products, henna (one of the strongest proteins ever), fenegreek etc. and my hair sprouted!!!! Like healthy healthy lol and I want to use these products when relaxed. What do you recommend? I’ll be coming back to ask more questions 💘binge watching your videos
That moisture right conditioner about took my scalp out. The shampoo is OK. I think it’s the fruits in it. I hadn’t used 5 in 1 in about 2 years because I was using positive link & sustenance but I just got a bottle a month ago because I do believe it’s a good protein treatment that I was missing. I’ve been using Avlon for about 15 yrs. I can definitely tell the difference because I didn’t use the 5 in 1.
Hey Megz! Thank you for sharing this. I have been experiencing a lot of shedding. I am texlaxed, I am not sure if that makes a difference but my hair also seems quite sensitive to protein. Do you think the ORS Replenishing conditioner would be good? Or maybe to go with something stronger like the ORS hair mayonaise? I really want to try this method and hope it works.
Those are both great. I used the replenishing conditioner weekly and the mayo once to twice a month. The replenishing conditioner might be your friend if yo wish to try that out.
@@mrs.snell87 Thank you so much! It's great to hear from someone who has used it for so long and has good experience with it. I will definitely give it a try today!
Ok girl I purchased the Affirm reconstructor and my hair was soo soft and fabulous after the 1st use, thank you. Oh girl I finally pulled the plug and got a Even AF cut. Have a long Bob💁🏾♀️and my hair feels soo good. Do it
Hey meg quick question should I only use products that treats chemically processed hair ?? I want to use all natural products but now I’m scared my hair will fall out.
@@ulovemegz Ok thanks! Is Affirm stronger? I think I'm going to get it. I also love Mizani Kerafuse. It's a strong protein but doesn't leave the hair stiff at all.
BEST PRODUCTS EVERRRR! I’m natural and flat iron my hair weekly! This is just lifeeeee for my hair! 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾 I use “detangling shampoo” just like honey to my hair!

I have always used Affirm 5 in 1 Reconstructor. It has worked really well on both my relaxed, then natural, hair. 👍🏼👍🏼
Also check your iron levels. If you're Anemic it can cause dryness and shedding...
Yes!!

You can also try the Aphogee Two-step Protein Treatment. It will instantly stop the breakage and shedding instantly!
How often do you do you wash your hair
Hi have you used pattern hair products
I just started back doing my black tea rinses because I’ve been having some excessive shedding. I need to clarify as well.
Niceeeeee! Those rinses are bomb too!
what brand tea you use?
filha DoAltissimo just a store brand black tea. I normally brew 2-3 bags over night to use on my wash day. It’s the last step after you wash and condition.
Just Michelle 😊 Thank you
My hair was breaking daily, used itn ast night and breakage stopped, thanks Megz!
How does this compare to the aphogee protein treatment?
I do not use protein in my hair because some of my hair ran off 😃 I use black Jamaican Castor oil in my hair for dry scalp and itchy scalp.

Henna is the truth! Check out Curly Proverbs if you haven't already she's the ayurveda guru! ❤️
Hi have you tried Olaplex #3
I purchased it and will be doing a review. ☺️
I used it with my natural 4C hair and it worked for me. My hair was soft after use. I use it now with relaxed hair too.
Avlon's Affirm 5 in 1 Reconstructor helped me restore my hair every time that I was hard headed and bald headed.
Yeah it really works!!!
How do you do your hair after workouts? Are you washing or co washing after each workout?
Hi your hair looks beautiful. But my question is when you were natural what did you use for shred hair I am natural and I am having the same problems
Try doing a Green Tea Hair Rinse. Make sure you use a Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner that has No Protein in it. It helps with Shedding.
I use affirm Avalon will try out these recommended products.
Hey megs I’m experiencing some breakage in my nape area. When you were natural what did you use to combat the breakage?
What products do you use? Also check out dayela soul. She has helped me so much in learning about my natural.

Can these products be use to stop shedding for natural hair? My hair isn’t relaxed.
Yes you can use it on natural hair. Just follow up with a moisturizing condition.
