As a hairdresser I was looking for something new that would give better results than the other products on the market. After reading some reviews I decided to buy it and I don't regret it. This is what I was looking for and I will keep using until something better comes up. Highly recommend it!
MY hair is EXTREMELY thick and almost down to my waist. My hair is also wavy and EXTREMELY frizzy. The tools I used were a tourmaline plate straightener cranked up to 450 degrees. I also used an IONIC blow dryer. Gloves and face masks are required with this product. Instead of a bowl I portioned out the Instant Restore bottle no 2 on a Dixie paper plate. This made it much easier to determine how much product to use on each section of the hair. Also instead of an application brush I just used a fine tooth comb to apply and spread the product.
I have tried other lower priced Keratin Treatments with mild success. Other products make my hair softer and less tangled but I still had to blow dry and then straight iron my hair to get the waves out. Plus I still had some frizz. I was hesitant to try this product because of the price but I had the extra cash so I gave it a whirl. Bottle 1 was simple, I mean it's just shampoo your hair over and over until the bottle is gone. I had someone else apply bottle 2 for me (it was just easier this way). Make sure you use the face masks in a well-ventilated area because the fumes are bad. Also be careful getting this on your face because if you have sensitive skin like me it will burn a little. This is where the variation in directions comes in. Instead of immediately blow drying after the application of bottle 2 like the manufacturer states, I followed Amazon's directions and let it sit for 20 minutes. After letting it sit I used my blow dryer and instead of trying to brush through my hair (because it was VERY difficult to do so), I just used my hands instead. Then I followed the Amazon directions and ran the flat iron at least 10 times over the hair (again face mask and well-ventilated area is a must). Then the last variation of directions was the temperature of water while rinsing bottle 2 out of the hair. I did follow the manufacturer's directions on this one. Instead of room temperature like Amazon said I did it with cold water.
Like I stated before, I was really skeptical about this product because I have had mediocre results with less expensive versions of this product. In the end I have to say that I AM VERY IMPRESSED! When I bowed dried my hair the last time after bottle 3 with my fingers only I have to say that I didn't think it was going to work. However, my hair came out soft straight and with NO FRIZZ! Granted I have only had this product in for 24 hours, still I am loving this system so far. As with other Keratin Treatments I am going to use Sulfate-Free, Sodium Chloride-Free Keratin shampoo and conditioner as is recommended. I just hope it lasts for a while because the process is tedious but hopefully well worth the effort. I will post updates as time goes by to verify the stamina of the product remaining consistent in the hair.
