This was our 2nd time to purchase this produce it is at least a $10 savings buying it on amazon vs buying it at a beauty supply store.*PROS: Product arrived quickly. Product straightened naturally curly hair (not tight curls, but med-tight, large curls) to about 95% (a few spots could have
used another application, but the areas were so small we opted to just leave it) a success both times. Left hair soft not dried out or frizzy.
Results were JUST as good as the salon, and last approx. 3 months. Will purchase again!
*CONS: Product does not contain everything needed for the process (see below).
*Need To Know Info:
* Should NOT be attempted "solo" you will need a friend to do application for you.
* Product does NOT come with the following items (you will need to purchase):
-Processing bag to cover head (see more details below),
-comb for dividing hair (you'll need one to make parts),
-application brush (which you'll need to buy from a beauty supply)
-Minimum of 8 hair clips to hold hair back for application process.
* Suggested additional items: Salon cape (to drape over shoulders/etc), ear covers (beauty supply)
* Prepare to spend a min. of 2-3 hours (for short hair) on process.
* You will need a good quality flat iron with adjustable heat setting so that it gets hot enough, but does not burn the hair.
*Tips for application:
*Know that you need to cover hair during processing with a plastic bag that allows hair to process FLAT/STRAIGHT we ended up using saran wrap, which works just fine, as does a large plastic bag with the long side cut open (top to the bottom) and placed over the head cut side open to for the face.
* There will be enough product left over for a 2nd application (2-3 days later), however, you are better off not being frugal with the product, and making sure you completely saturate the hair with the product so that it will process adequately.
* Part the hair as directed, and use nice small/thin sections to ensure saturation of the hair sections with the product.
* Work fast (because the last section of hair is when your processing time begins), but it's more important to take the time to adequately saturate the hair.
* Take the strand test seriously it IS the right indication that the processing is or isn't done.
* Expect that you will use the maximum time for processing. We left the product on for at least 2-3 times the suggested length of time.
* Give yourself adequate time to get through this process it took us 4 hrs the first time, 3 hours the 2nd time.
* FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS
