Anti-Breakage Products for Relaxed Hair

Anti-Breakage Products for Relaxed Hair

Marilyn from Detroit, MI asks:

What are the best anti-breakage products for relaxed hair?

Protein products are the answer.  Chemical treatments are taxing to the strands causing a breakdown of the hair’s natural proteins.  Therefore, protein products, especially reconstructors (meaning to rebuild), will cause the hair to have less breakage.  The protein will in effect rebuild the keratin bonds (that are natural present in the hair) that were broken in the process of getting the relaxer.  The hair will in turn have less damage, split ends, and appear to be stronger than it would without the addition of protein to your tresses.  Protein treatments would be the first thing and the best thing to do upon getting a relaxer, whether it contains lye or not.

Aphogee has an excellent line of hair care products to prevent breakage for relaxed and natural heads.  You may choose to invest in them as many women have had successes and seen results with this brand (myself included).  Aphogee products may be purchased at many neighborhood beauty supply stores or at your nearest Sally Beauty Supply.

Marilyn, thanks for your question!  I hope this answer has helped.  Until next time, Happy Healthy Hair Growing!!!
