Question:

"I'm so confused, what's the difference between protein conditioners and reconstructors??"

great ! that is exactly what i was thinking. tks girl ;-)

Thanks! I'd thought they were the same.

Yeah, I thought the same thing. Reconstructor actually repair and penetrate similar to a dc and conditioners are temporary.

Great post! This falls in line with what I was thinking... Applied to Aphogee Line: 2 Minute is a protein conditioner (done 1x every 6 weeks) and the 2-Step is a reconstructor (done 1x week).

I am little confused maybe the reconstructor does penetrate more... but I read in many places that hair cannot be repared... it can look better for a little time but it is still damaged... the only way to take away the damaged hair is to cut it off... can someone help me understand please?!?

Hair can be repaired. Split ends cant. That's the difference. If hair itself couldn't be repaired then almost everyone who started their hair journey would have to start from scratch. Most of us probably had damaged hair and turned it around... I'm one of them. Split ends are the only things that cant be repaired.

Thx PocaD... what you said makes sense... now I know better :)

Thanks for this ...I am learning so much!

@ Nunaavane - REally? well hey, that's great =]

@ Phyllis - Your welcome. No they are different.

@ LaQT - You got it!!

@ Minty - I think you got it mixed up a little. The 2 min can be done once a week, whereas the 2 step should be done every 6-8 weeks.

@ Anonymous & PocaD - Great question. Thanks hun for chiming in!! Your awesome :)

THANK YOU. For some reason protein conditioners don't work well with my hair...I use a reconstructor once a week. I hope that isn't too much???
