MissT1806 | Protein "Pre-Poo" Treatment for Strong Healthy Natural Hair | MissT1806 @MissT1806 | Uploaded April 2013 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Understanding the balance between moisture and protein goes a long way in retaining healthy strong long hair!
With natural hair your protein needs are a little less compared to someone with chemically relaxed or colored hair but nonetheless it a necessity in a healthy hair regimen. When I have talked to people about protein a lot have said "My hair doesn't like protein! It left my hair so hard". I must confess that I thought the same thing at one point until I did further research.
All proteins are not equal! There are varying degrees of protein treatment depending on the condition of your hair - more damaged hair needs some thing more like a reconstructor while healthy hair will benefit from simple conditioning packs all available at your local hair and beauty supply store. Of course there are tons of home remedies too using eggs, avocado, yoghurt that offer great benefits as well.
Access your hair before you select a protein treatment. If you are unable to tell the state of your hair consult a hair stylist/specialist for help. Typically I know I need a protein treatment when I've used significant amounts of heat over a short period, or if my wet hair feels limp, cannot seem to hold a style and stretches forever before breaking! I may do a protein treatment once every 2-3 months depending on the state of my hair
