What?? Use Aphogee product until your hair is restored and then use another product line to maintain?? Like we have money to waste! *sigh* LOL at some of these comments.
@keep it real....it was a trial and error and you have save some of us who were skeptic some money and time. LOL
You have almost an entire bottle of the conditioner left...that is where you went wrong. Every time you wash your hair you are to use at least an ounce of the conditioner. Shampoo...regardless of who you use, is going to strip the hair. THe conditioner is designed to bring the moisture back. I agree Aphogee should only be used once or twice a month, but you did no use enough conditioner. :)
NO.... I see how you would think that...But I am soooo heavy handed on the conditioner, THAT WAS A NEW BOTTLE!!! I used the big bottle up and had to go buy another one!! I am a BEAST with Conditioner....LOL....Thanks so much for the comment because if that was the problem, then your comment would have surely helped! Take Care!
Ateya states it's what SHE uses to make Her hair healthy she did not state it works for everyone, you use on your own discretion, Aphogee is a protein line so you should use it once a week and you should moisturize your hair every day paying close attention to the ends, if you use too much aphogee it will cause a protein overload and your hair will break, balance it out with moisture
the reason is because you are to use the product until your hair gets healthy then switch to another product that works for ur hair. The reason you had dry hair is because you use the aphogee to much your hair was healthy. Didn't you say you used it for months. Paul mitchell is a good line i like the serum. But yeah you mad good points
i dont think you should give it away, it may come in handy. protein should be used atleast once a month. Why dont uou keep it sometimes its good to use a week befiore your relxer.

utopiad4-I hope you read this but Aphogee is for damaged hair--damaged hair to get your hair back healthy..you didn't listen well to her tut. she was having problems with her hair. She used this and alternated with other products. THE KEY IS THE METHOD THAT SHE USES NOT APHOGEE SO u should have used your own products,example your own shampoo, conditioner, serum, foaming wrap...it the method not the product. You can't do what everyone does honey...it just don't work!
I understood exactly what she said. I had damaged hair also. I listened well and she did say she alternated about once a month with Paul Mitchell(which is what I use now). But she stated she uses the Aphogee weekly and treatments before her relaxer, etc....I did everything exactly as she said she did. SHE WAS DEFINETLY PUSHING APHOGEE REGIMEN!!! And not my own regimen. I used the products she stated that will get your hair healthy. But like I siad it's not her fault. I'm grown!
I use Ateya's aphogee regimen minus the 2 Step Protein, I do my perm every 8-10 weeks and my hair is long, strong and healthy. Remember...this is ateya's regimen so what works for her may not work for us. Utopiad4, I hope you find some hair products that will restore your damage. Maybe seek a professional...But I dont trust them personally. Take care
Yes I do go to the beauty shop to get my hair done most of the times. But I was washing my own hair lately. When I get my weaves done or something I do go the the beauty shop. But I already switched to Paul Mitchell and Nexxus. Thanks for the comment.
People kill me telling OTHER PEOPLE what they MUST be doing. This lady said over and over that she did EXACTLY what Ateya did and HOW she did it....Geesh! How come it's so hard to believe or admit, Ateya was wrong!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
it may be due to the protein overload. aphogee is not meant to be used as a regular regimine. after your hair is healthy again. stop using it. that is why ateya switches between paul mitchel and kera care
I don't use the product,but I watch ateyaa video and she said when using the aphogee Two-step protein Treatment you also need to use the Balancing Moisturizer,then you follow that up with the Keratin 2 MInute Reconstructor conditioner.Like you said Paul Mitchell is a very good product and so is Doo gro
i use the aphogee products, and i also use creme of nature ultra moisturizing shampoo because the aphogee shampoo for damaged hair does dry the hair. i have no complaints about the product so far. i like switching shampoos and conditioners because sometimes the hair may not need protein as it once did. the next time around the hair may need moisture. lemme tell you though, a very good daily moisturizer is neutrogena triple moisture. then seal in the moisture with hair oil. hot six oil or olive.
Yeah I see you use other things. Personally everyone who followed the regimen exactly like Ateya had problems. Those who are have good results DO NOT do it exactly as Ateya on a weekly basic. But I wish you all the luck. Everyone is different. Thanks so much for the comment.
Me and my daughter are on week three and so far so good. My sister is also on week three and she is breaking out on her forehead a little bit, so it's something in Aphogee that's breaking her out. Everyone is different, body chemistry, how you live, what you eat, all of that is a factor, that's why there are different products for different people.
Yes weekly, but we're only on our 3rd week. I'm keeping a close eye out for the drying. I figure once our hair is in better shape, we'll switch to the Aphogee products that don't contain the protien. Only the products for damaged hair contain the protien. So I'll see how that goes.
Hi..my name is shannon ...i want these products so BAD .i have herd so many good things about this product and i want it but the thing is that where i live they donot sell these products...so a few weeks ago...i went and price the products in Ebay and every thing that ateya used it came up to about $60.00 US ...where i live one US dollar = to 6 TT dollars..so therefor i wolud be spending $360 on hair products...and that is alot of money....so befor i go and spend all that money on products.....
hey utopiad4 i absolutely love aphogee and i am a student so its hard to keep up with the products since i dont work. but i would love to have them. i think it is so nice of you that you are giving this away. i really aprreciate it and i would love for you to put me in the drawing!!!! i hope i win!!!!!!!!!
I never tried the aphogee. I train my hair with other products...believe it or with Creme of Nature, Suave, and V05 products a few others and I still get the bounce and swang. I think it's all about training the hair.
yes girl i could have told you that...aphogee is not good for my hair. it made my hair very very hard and hard to manage. but it worked for my sister....but i use any think by matrix not to much protein but moisture.
your hair obviously doesn't need that much protein. You might consider keeping the aphogee products and using them like once a month instead of every week/2 weeks.
But you are so right that Ateya Aphogee Regimen is NO GOOD! Me and my 2 cousins started the same day 4 months ago and our hair came out and was like brittle pads. It seems like everyone who had success used it only once or twice a month. We did not substitute anything, we used it just as Ateya said, she really gave everyone a raw deal on that one!
HOLD UP NOW, I did not say that! Obviously it works for some, and it doesn't work for others. Ateyaaa did say, It's what SHE does. So we have to be adults about things. We are grown and like I said in the video, we have to research things BEFORE we use/invest in products.
i amsorry babes that it didnt work for u or ur daughter and you have beautiful hair and it would be a sin to see it goto waste so do what works for you. It works for me but i use it every two weeks. i would like to beentered into ur giveaway
IT'S TIME TO GO NATURALE BOO! I don't use Nexxes, Treseme', perms or any of that stuff anymore all you need is Organix coconut milk shampoo and conditioner and shea butter I am african american and Jamaican so my hair is very bushy. If you can't get pure shea butter get cantu but stop killing your hair. God gave us something different & beautiful once you start doing this trust you will notice a difference right away I wouldn't tell you if it didn't work. My friends hair is chest length now
Sorry hunny i didnt work out..I have been wanting to try this product line but my funds been low..can I be entered in the giveaway..and Nexxus..my mom loves that line.
I am glad to see that you are a fan of Nexxus because it is a product that is great for black hair. I never been a fan of paul mitchell products. What do you use from him that works. Also hair is dead but it has energy so if you aren't good to it..it will let you know. Always keep your ends trimmed it promotes growth and makes the hair very happy. It's like cutting back a plant. Love ya
Girlfriend Aphogee used to be the bomb back in the days when your hair was falling out it would stop it. However because it has lots of protein it hardens and dries the hair over a period of time. I do not recommend that product to be used all the time. Black hair needs lots of moisture. I used to use Nexxus back in the day as well and I still recommend it to my black clients. There products are rich in moisture
every week protein with dry and break the hair completly off.that is what was happening to you guys...moisture moisture moisture..relaxers and hot irons already dry the hair..we need all the moisture we can get because of the chemicals and heat it depletes all of our natural moisture...good luck..and i like to trim my black clients hair every relaxer...xoxox
I love the green tea but the other products I can only use once a month with no problems. But I use other stuff weekly. Sorry it didnt work out for you guy's
i hope it works for me.

You used too much of the 2 minute keratin reconstructorizer, you have to use the balancing moisturizer to condition. and the shampoo is garbage.

You must have used the protein treatment too regularly. Ateya told you to use the protein treatment once every 6 to 8 weeks before you get a relaxer.
