Brazilian Keratin Treatment Complex Blowout - Organic Care Cosmetics - 8.5 fl oz (250ml) - Hair Straightening

I was skeptical but after reading a lot of reviews I thought I would give it a try. My hair is severely damaged from years of bleaching, drying, straightening. Now that I’m a little older I try to wash my hair every 3-4 days and don’t dry or straighten unless I’m going out somewhere special. You can see that my hair is smooth and of course straight after using this. I normally have a little wave and my hair is super frizzy after drying, even straightening. However, I did mess up the process. Lol so I might try again in a few days to see if there’s any difference. I was going by the instructions on Amazon rather than the bottle. When it says “remove excess” I assumed this is just taking a towel And wiping your hair. As I was blow drying I noticed my hair was so stiff and sticky and barely could get a brush through it. The same when it came to straightening. When I realized I don’t think it should be this sticky, I decided to read the bottle which specifically says to “rinse excess” once I rinsed, my hair was much more manageable and I then completed the dry and straighten process….. again… lol leaving me with nice results. ☺️ PS- the scent is not too bad, it’s not the best but it’s not terrible and has a bit of a woodsy undertone. I would suggest spraying your hair with a hair perfume after all is done if you really don’t like the smell ☺️ TIP: as I do have blond highlights and read that this can fade or cause redness, I washed my hair with purple shampoo and left it in for 10 min. Then rinsed. This was mentioned in another review and seemed to work, as I did not notice any redness or fading. 👍

This product works really well although finding the instructions was annoying. This is my 4th time doing it and each time my hair stays easy to manage for about 6-8 weeks, depending on how often I wash (2-3x/week due to workouts). I see very minimal shedding and it’s helped my hair grow faster and stay strong. What I found works best is doing a light rinse after the product sits on my hair for 30-40 minutes. Then I blow dry it and straighten, running my straightener over each section at least 4x at 390 degrees F. After letting it sit for 3-4 days I’ll wash and for the next 4-6 weeks, I only need to blow dry my hair. If I straighten at all I do it at 320 degrees max. After those 4-6 weeks I find I do need to straighten it once every few days but it could be because of the extreme humidity here in Florida and the fact that I run outside 4-5x/week. One thing I don’t like is how my hair smells when I wash it after the first few weeks. But I’ll do a leave-in conditioner that smells good, like Coco and Eve, and the smell is hardly noticeable. Overall, it’s a great product and works so well that I don’t mind having to redo the process every 2 months.

Hey All. I am NOT ONE that would write to trash a GOOD product, but knowledge is definitely power. I used this product KERATIN OGYX the first time back , I think around May. I noticed my hair was constantly dry.I have really thick curly hair ,and when I passed my hands through my hair I noticed it was dry and would break off after I did this and was also FALLING OUT IN CLUMPS (I thought it was me that I did not reuse the product when I needed to😡)Never realized it was not me but the keratin from OGXY is the reason that this was happening 🙄. I decided to purchase another bottle , thinking I needed to reuse the product, never bothering to research the ingredients in this product, but when I used it and realized my hair was still breaking and dry.i decided to research this product, to MY DISGUST THIS HAS 1 OF THE WORST THING YOU CAN PUT IN YOUR HAIR ETHYL ALCOHOL.🤬OMG this is just as bad as formaldehyde. I am so ANGRY AND UPSET. I DID my second use of this product on Sunday.I am NOT SURE HOW I AM going to repair this Damage.but its sad I have almost loss most of my BEAUTIFUL natural curly hair.its now thin and weak from this product (please read the info on GOOD AND BAD ALCOHOL from VOICE OF HAIR.TRUST i wish I had FONE MY DUE DILIGENCE 😭😭😭😭

Update:12/20… I have washed my hair for the first time after the initial instructions, and this is the outcome! Still shiny still very manageable no frizz! My hair is healthy. No sign of damage! Ordering again absolutely. The pictures that are now on my review are fresh from today after I did my hair. And for definition, that meant, I’d let my hair actually air dry from last night and lightly used a hair dryer this afternoon in between conference calls and put a little flat iron to it. First, let me tell you that I have a fabulous hairdresser and stylist! The keratin treatments that I was getting, two times a year that last closer to five months is $100 an ounce. The steps that are used to administer the treatment are the same exact steps that this one bottle for under $60 directs. About me, I have an Italian mother and my father is African-American so my hair is complicated. Lol. The middle of my room head seems to want to grow more coarse hair, then the hair that frames my face, but the hair that is that the back of my neck is much softer so in essence, I have three different patterns. I-desperately needed a protein treatment, and with my schedule being how it has been, reading the product reviews on this Christmas had me willing to try. When I tell you, my hair looked like and felt like what it normally does leaving my friends chair, I tell you that she would be floored. The same rules of engagement applies to using this as going to a professional. Do not aggravate your scalp prior. Know the time in between when you want your hair, dyed a color, and if the color requires the lightning, that also plays in factor to using a keratin treatment. I follow the directions as stated, even using the technique of combing in the keratin like my stylist does. I will say not to freak out my hair, I washed and conditioned it, step one the day before, and let it air dry. I had to finish up in the morning with a hairdryer, because my hair is thick . I applied a product like directed and step to clipped it up and put on a disposable shower cap and left it on for about 45 minutes. I rinsed out the excess in the shower as step three indicated, and proceeded to blow dry. I will say because it did not indicate using any other product like a detangler. You have to be careful when blow drying. Using wide tooth comb to help those with longer locks and pack your patience. But do you know what happens when you follow the directions? It was like magic. My hair was so so soft and extremely shiny. My husband and mother was shocked with the turn out. They were begging me not to try it, but when you don’t have $900 to spend on hair during an unforgiving economy, you do what you need to do. The bottle does not promise that the results will last as long as the one from the salon, but completely manageable to do at home again in 12 weeks or less. I wish I took a before and after picture, but I will tell you that I am ordering this product again.

I have been trying so many different products non work for me till I found this one I love it im so happy and thank you so much 🙏
