Q. Hello! ive received my products. But im confused on the add to conditioner step. I have curly hair and u usually apply shea butter leave in conditioner after conditioning with biolage. So should i mix with the biolage and not use the leave-in? im going to blow dry and flat iron.

A. Hi There,

All conditioners are the same, some thicker some lighter. They are designed to ONLY fill in the holes in the cuticle layer and rarely penetrate the cortex layer for any amount of time.

ALL hair products are water soluble, they are not effective and only act as a “feel good” application that either dissipates or dilutes within 2 to 3 hours depending on the climate conditions. Shea butter is the same as all of the other products. The best way to understand this, take a dab of any conditioner including Shea butter, rub it in one palm and hold that hand under the facet for a couple of seconds. Then watch the product either rinse off completely or leave a slight residue and stop beading up. Then take Moisture Block and do the same thing in the other palm. Note that Moisture Block beads up, this beading proves that Moisture Block is not water-soluble BUT it is shampoo soluble. This is why Moisture Block is the most superior product developed. It is strictly comprised of 2 pure 100% cosmetic silicones. If you look on the back of the bottle, compare it to all of the other products in your bathroom. Unlike MB, they all have varied chemical support or “supposedly” organic ingredients. Just note also that anything that is difficult to pronounce except for Dimethicone or Cyclomethicone is chemically processed. This is not a big deal whether it is organic or not because hair is dead and it only reacts to different ingredients or combinations thereof. Moisture Block is the ONLY product that creates a protective barrier that locks in conditioners and moisture from shampoo to shampoo.

Now to get to your question. When in the shower shampoo and rinse. Apply as much of a crème conditioner as you desire in the palm of your hand. Squirt about a quarter size or more of Moisture Block on top of the conditioner in your palm. Rub palms together and start applying from the ends up. If your hair is kinky at the roots, add a little extra of both there. Work through well or even comb or brush through. Leave it in while you shower completely and quick rinse. Once out of the shower towel blot and add about a quarter to dime size of Moisture Block (depending on hair thickness) to palms and start  at the ends working up to the roots. Again, add a little more to the roots if they are kinky. Always brush through and messy blow-dry, round brush necessary. I like to use a vent brush and flat dry the hair as it makes flat ironing easier and quicker. Be sure that your hair is completely dried prior to flat ironing. Go to www.gotfrizz.com and there are videos that show successful flat ironing and other styling techniques. Be sure that your flat iron reaches 450 degrees. 400 degrees is ok but the lower the temperature the less Moisture Block penetrates to create unbelievable shine and softness. Moisture Block is also the best thermal protector you can buy regardless of the temperature setting.  Do not use any other products with Moisture Block. Oils break it down and they become rancid in the hair after long exposure allowing bacteria to enter your hair.

The whole reason for our techniques is to educate women on an easier more effective program to healthier hair that stands up to any climate. Read the posts on the site as well, there is a wealth of information that will change your thinking about what hair, hair products can and cannot do, and why the hair industry is a marketing system rather than developing products that really work. If women were satisfied with the results of water-soluble products they wouldn’t still be searching for the perfect solution.
