I've been through the ringer with products and so-called hair care solutions. I've been duped time after time with products that don't do anything that they say their going to do.
My hair is naturally curly and I'm always trying to straighten it out. I color it and bleach it, dry it and fry it and everything else in between. In December I thought I would try the Keratin treatment in hopes to make my hair healthier and straight without having to used a flat iron on it. WRONG! The Keratin treatment that I received was either done improperly or the product wasn't doing what it should. I ended up damaging my already over treated hair and I never thought I would get it back to normal let alone looking healthy.
I tried the Wen Sweet Almond Mint cleanser which I figured couldn't hurt any more then what I had already done. It does take some getting used to the process that's involved in this product. Rinse your hair thoroughly, use 16-32 pumps or more depending on thickness of your hair, scrub, leave in while showering, scrub and rinse out. It seems like a long process, but I assure you it's not. I start my shower off rinsing my hair and then pumping as many pumps as I feel necessary (usually around 25)and I leave the product in while I wash myself, use my clarisonic, shave and exfoliate my feet. Then I add a little bit of water to my hair and scrub the product in some more while massaging my scalp and enjoying the mint smell and I finish by rinsing it out.
Once I get all the product out and I towel dry my hair I usually take a half pump in my hand and use that as my leave in conditioner. Aside from blow drying my hair and maybe flat ironing some ends I don't use anything else.
After 2 months of using this product my hair dresser couldn't even tell that she ruined my hair just a couple months ago. She was astonished by how healthy and shiny my hair was. I even stopped crying at night because of all the hair loss and breakage from the previous treatment. I can honestly say that Wen is my go to product and I use it every other day or when I'm back from a day of volleyball.
