Joico K-Pak Deep Penetrating Reconstructor

I love this product. I love the way it smells and the strength it gives my 4c hair. I will say, something is different about my hair. I'm not sure if it's the keratin but my hair is way looser in curl pattern than usual. Almost like I slightly chemically processed my hair. Not sure if this is a typical result but otherwise it's great.

I have very fine, long, & recently over processed hair. Which of course, left it damaged. I left this on for almost a half hour. Used it 2 x a week. For one week. After that I tossed it out. It made absolutely zero difference, even after rinsing it out. I couldn't get comb through my hair. Left it dull & weirdly thinner than it normally is.

Great product, leaves my hair smooth and manageable. I only use it once a month and that's enough for my hair. I alternate with a more moisturizing deep conditioner for perfect balance.

This is NOT a moisturizing product. This is a protein treatment. It will not make your hair soft. That said, it is an amazing protein treatment! It really helps make your hair stronger. I only use once every other week on fine, thin hair for ten minutes (unlike the five it says) It does smell like bananas, I don't mind it though.

I color and highlight my hair. I also have very hard water where I live. As a result, my hair is dry and damaged. I use this Joico reconstructor once or twice a week, and then use Kpak conditioner right after since it doesn't really detangle my fine hair. At first, it doesn't feel like it did anything, but once my hair is dry, it is soft and feels like normal healthy hair, instead of straw.
