When was the last time you did a protein treatment? If your curls have become stretched, damaged, and not defined it may be time for a protein treatment. Hair is essentially a protein (keratin) and heat and constant manipulation (even wash and go's) can cause hair to become damaged. Adding a protein treatment to your monthly hair care regimen can bring your curls back to life.
Protein deep conditioners work differently from your regular conditioners and deep conditioners due to their thicker consistency and added protein. Protein deep conditioners’ main purpose is to add protein into the cuticle of your hair to fill in the gaps that may cause hair to become damaged.

INGREDIENTS:
Mango Butter is derived from the seed of mangos and is non-comedogenic (won't clog pores). It works by strengthening hair follicles and reducing hair breakage. Mango butter contains vitamins E and A, an excellent source of moisture for the hair. Vitamin C within mango butter blocks free radicals that can lead to hair aging.
Coconut Milk Powder contains lauric acid that has the ability to penetrate the hair follicles which may strengthen hair and promote hair growth. It is filled with multiple vitamins that are an excellent source of moisture and damage repair. Coconut milk is high and protein and can help fill the gaps in the hair shaft that have been damaged due to heat and other hair manipulations.
Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein can strengthen the hair by reducing the hair porosity. This allows the hair to be able to receive and retain moisture. Hair that is able to retain moisture is less likely to break, has less frizz, and reduces tangles that may result in breakages. Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein is the main ingredient that strengthens the hair shaft. Too much protein can cause hair to become brittle so it is only recommended to use this type of protein every 4-6 weeks.
Almond Oil is produced from the seeds of almond trees. It works by softening and smoothing your hair. The benefits of almond oil don't stop there as this oil also strengthens, repairs, conditions, and helps improve hair growth.
Castor Oil can be used as a way to nourish the scalp and as a way to promote healthy hair strands. The oil can lubricate hair stands allowing for flexibility and manipulation. This decreases the chance of breakage.
Glycerin is a natural conditioner that hydrates hair while also making the hair softer and frizz-free. This is one of the most widely used humectants.
Vitamin E Oil is able to reduce the stress on the scalp preventing hair loss. Vitamin E can provide shine to hair, reduce breakage, and prevent damage. Vitamin E can provide a protective layer on the hair shaft stopping UV and environmental pollutants that can damage curls.
*Our Deep Conditioner does contain Cetyl Alcohol (good alcohol).
Low Porosity hair should only use Strengthening Protein Treatment every 6 weeks or unless the hair is extremely damaged or has loss of curls (use every 4 weeks). Low porosity hair does not have as many gaps or tears in the cuticle for the protein to go so it can harm the hair to use too often.
High Porosity hair should use Strengthening Protein Treatment every 4 weeks. The high porosity hair cuticle is constantly raised and there are gaps so protein is good to fill those gaps.
Directions: Apply weekly from scalp to end of the hair shaft after shampooing hair. Allow deep conditioner to sit on hair for 20 minutes before rinsing. For the best results, you should sit under a hooded dryer, wear a heating cap or add steam to a deep conditioning treatment.
