I have used relaxers before in my hair, and all have promised the same
thing, straight, flawless frizz free hair. None of them ever worked
though. Most of them did however manage to leave my hair dry and feeling
like hay, while smelling like egg farts.
When I kept coming across review after review of users claiming that this one hit wonder called Organix Smoothing Treatment, 30 Day, Ever Straight, Brazilian Keratin Therapy, actually worked, I was excited to test that claim for myself.
I wondered though how it would react on my hair type, as mine is half
wavy, semi curly, with a ton of puff an uncontrollable frizz and
thickness. I hate having to use a straight iron because it could
seriously take 2 hours out of my day to fully straighten my unruly hair.
I hoped, if anything, that Organix Smoothing Treatment, 30 Day, Ever
Straight, Brazilian Keratin Therapy would make the hair less puffy and
frizzy. I had a hunch it would not create superb straight locks, but if
it did anything, I would hope it would simply de-frizz the hair.
How It Works:
In the box you get 2 products, a very small package of shampoo, and a bottle of formula that you use after shampooing.
However you can only shampoo, you are not to use any conditioner
afterward, and trust me, this shampoo will leave your hair aching for
some moisture. It left my hair feeling dry, knotty and disgusting.
You are to wait for your hair to be nearly dry before adding the formula in sections.
You are to wear the included gloves, and simply run the formula
through sections of the hair, while brushing it straight and keeping it
as straight as possible.
Once the formula is in your hair, you will feel it becoming more
moisturized, and less gritty feeling. It will feel heavy and slightly
greasy as it dries though, but this feeling vanishes once you use the
straight iron.
Once the hair is dry, that is when you can use the straight iron on
the hair. After the hair is pin straight you cannot tie it back, or up,
or even tuck hair behind your ear. It's very difficult to do, but you
will be less likely to tie it back after all the time you spent applying
this treatment. (It took me about 5 hours)
Results:
You cannot wash the hair for 48 hours, so things will look a little
nasty by day 2. The hair however will remain pin straight and feel very
soft and silky.
My main concern was what would happen once I actually showered.
I used Organix Brazilian Keratin shampoo and conditioner to maintain
this treatment, but the hair dried with some fuzz and puffiness.
However, the amount of frizz and puffiness was half compared to what I would normally have if I allowed my hair to air dry.
What would normally take 2 hours to do, only took a half hour. That's
right, I was able to flat iron my hair quickly and flawlessly in just 30
minutes, which is a huge difference before using this treatment.
Not only is styling hair faster and easier, but my hair feels
healthier after applying this treatment. My hair is shiny, silky and
soft.
Overall:
If you have severely frizzy/curly or puffy hair, this treatment will
definitely help settle it down some, but not completely. It does however
cut styling time. If your hair has just a little wave and curl, this
would probably work perfectly.
I would highly recommend this one to anyone though, it will help sever
frizz, but it will not make the hair pin straight once you shower for
the first time. You will though, notice a complete difference in your
hair though, a good difference.
