In the mist of detangling my hair during a condition wash, I noticed a lot of breakage/shedding. I immediately gave my hair a quick protein treatment with Aphogee Two minute protein treatment followed by the Moisture Balancing Conditioner which immediately stopped the breakage and shedding.

  • Do you clip you ends? This is my 1st yr natural and I've been advised to clip, what are your thoughts.

  • @Mrstrayluvv Yes, I do chop (not clip) my ends twice a year; November and June of each year.

  • @Apriluv7779 There there! The hair grows approximately six inches within a year. Twice a year, I cut at least 1.5 inches; a total of three inches to keep my ends healthy. I use a sharp pair of scissors I only use for cutting/clipping my hair. I clip my hair while in twists unless I doing a layered hair cut. I hope this helps.

  • ????Shadding is a natural prosses of the hair. A purse pushes out the hair strand from the root and then another one grows in it's place.

  • Yes. I encourage you to purchase the protein treatment and the balancing moisturizer. Be certain to using the balancing conditioner immediately after the protein treatment.

  • @Apriluv7779 What's the difference between clipping and chopping?

    is it the method or the length or the phrasing? I mean, doesn't chop mean to cut with a single blade?

  • @Apriluv7779 thx, I'll go visit my Urbanbella.

  • So happy to have found this! I have these products from when I was relaxed but wasn't sure I could still use this with my natural hair. Will be doing the treatment this wkend b/c I seem to have a lil too much shedding than I like to see

  • I'm so glad I found this, because my hair has been shedding for about 2 months now, and it finally dawned on me that I probably need a freaking PROTEIN TREATMENT!! Usually I visit my aunt's shop about 2 or 3 times a year and she does it for me, but I haven't been in a really long time. My hair is a lot like your's just a little bit shorter.

    Thanks for the advice lady!

  • Wow if my hair ball was like that one I would feel great right now......Mine must have been 10 of those or more after taking out a sew in a few days ago ;-(
