I definitely agree with you about investing in your hair products! I use all keracare products and I am never going back to using cheaper hair products. We as women have to spurge on certain self care items because it produces excellent results as you mentioned. Great video Dawn! 👏🏾❤️
I found the Theorie products at Marshall’s and TJ max today . I’m in Love my hair feels amazing , I am also Relaxed ! My hair is long and healthy I never had a problem growing my hair . I got my first relaxer when I was 22 years old .
Hey, Debra! So glad you were able to find Theorie and that it’s working for you! When I went looking a few wks ago at TJ’s, there was barely anything - only one bottle of Theorie conditioner. Yeah, I got relaxed in my late teens and haven’t looked back since. 💁🏾♀️
I pulled the plug and placed an order for my Theorie shampoo. I ordered the Green Tea and Amber Rose. The Green Tea is for damage hair and even though my hair is not damage it is relaxed so the healthier the better. I ordered the Amber Rose for the hydration and moisture, soft hair is the best. 400ml for $7.99 from Marshals. I can’t wait to receive and try it
Hi! Great channel! Your hair is so pretty. Looking forward to seeing how you cut it. Can you show how you wrap it at night to preserve? I have so much trouble doing that.
Hi, Lisa! Thank you ☺️ . Wrapping your hair CAN be kinda tricky. So, yes, I will be more than happy to show how I do my ‘do at night. Thanks so much for watching!
I am natural but I think I’m going to try your routine for a while. I need simplicity because I’ve got a lot going on in my life (good stuff family and career wise ☺️)and I’m not afraid of heat. I do love my natural hair styles but you definitely get less consistent results and I don’t have time for that right now. Great video!
Thank you, Afro Bookworm! So happy that you have a lot of good things happening in your life right now! 👏🏾 Yes, I really do believe that simplicity is key, natural or relaxed. Simple is best... and less is sufficient. 😉 Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment. I really do appreciate it. ♥️
Hi! Just discovered your channel. Love it! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I like how you took it back old school to Infusium 23 and Wrap n Tap. 😊 Just curious . . . do you relax bone straight? I do and I love it!! Let me go to the store and buy some Wrap N Tap. Loving that black Denman brush too. Looks like a Limited Edition that came in a special fancy case. 😂 I agree with you about the bristle brush. I use to cringe when I use to see this done in the hair salon. Like you said, I would be BALD!!! Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you, Karla! So glad you’re enjoying! 🤗 Yes, the old school, in many ways, is the best school. Infusium is the truth! And if you find WnT, stock up on it because it has been discontinued... 😢 Anywho, thankfully my Denman isn’t limited edition...(no fancy box or anything, either lol 😉). Oh! And I relax my hair til it’s straight.
@@DolceDawn I’m definitely enjoying your videos! I just wish I had discovered them sooner. 😊 I’m going to the beauty supply store to pick up a few things today. Hopefully, they still carry WnT. I went to Harmon Cosmetics yesterday and picked up the PM Skinny serum. Can’t wait to try it! Like you mentioned in one of your videos, why do we need to keep putting oils in our hair when we never needed to after leaving the hair salon. I said to myself, “Hmmmmmmm . . . that is so true!” 😂 Thanks for answering all of my questions. 😊 Have a great day!
Dawn, I decided to try your regimen..hold on to your wrap n tap....there is No more wrap n tap! I could not believe it. I ended up getting proclaim liquid setting lotion....went to Marshall's and got the Theorie (Amber Rose poo/conditioner) ..I also got the skinny serum from Sally's. Just an fyi...if you ever see it anywhere (the wasp n tap) let us know.
You know what? You’re the third person to tell me, Debbie, and I am NOT happy about this. WHYYYYYYY?! Now Lottabody (the makers of WnT) does have a concentrated wrap lotion that you have to mix with water that they sell at Sally’s, but... I WANT MY ALREADY MIXED WRAP N TAP! 😑 Ugh... I’m gonna have to say something about it in my next vid. Glad you were able to get the rest of the products... and thanks for updating me *cradles bottle of Wrap n Tap and softly cries*.
Yes Look fantastic is a stockists so I’ll take a look. The Theorie products I also had to purchase from the US store. Expensive with the shipping cost, but I haven’t been to the salon for months so in my head that balances out. I was sporting the Don King look up to two weeks ago, then stumbling on your channel just put everything back into perspective. Thank you for your inspiration and commitment to helping me back on the journey to healthy hair.
😂 “Don King look”! You are too funny! Lol! So glad you’re getting your hair back to health now. You deserve to look and feel your best and I’m hoping these new products will help you achieve just that! ♥️
Hey! No, I don’t put anything extra on my hair after my initial wash and styling. I really believe that with the right products and care (e.g. wearing a silk scarf/bonnet at night, keeping ends trimmed, no harsh styling, etc.), you really shouldn’t need to constantly oil/moisturize your hair during the week. When you go to a salon, typically you don’t need to do it. So should it be when you do it yourself.
Dolce Dawn yes I have used the moisturizing shampoo, pro vitamin and the 2-1 keratin... I use the pro vitamin with it’s a 10 and get great results.. an april sunny tip
@@staciedonnett Wow! Then I would stick with that. Sounds like you got a good combo going on with their ProVitamin leave in and It’s A 10. If you’re still curious about Infusium, you may be able to get a sample or travel size at some beauty/drugstores.
Hi Dolce, it’s me again! I can’t get tap n wrap in the Uk, I’ve even searched the internet. Some sites are saying it’s sold out, so what can you recommend instead of.
Hey, Lena! Yeah, I was told recently that it’s been discontinued... 😑 Love that stuff! But, as a substitute, Avalon’s KeraCare setting lotion is pretty good, too. Do they sell KeraCare in the UK?
Hi guys, I found some Wrap n Tap in an small beauty supply store. Only 2 left, so I bought it. I remember you saying it was blue. This one is a sort of purpleish color. Same bottle as yours. Did I get the right stuff?
I can't find the Lottabody wrap n tap here in Canada(discontinued maybe?). Is the new one also recommended?If not, is the Nairobi wrapp it shine also good? Thanks!
Hey! I believe they sell the professional Lottabody Setting Lotion at Sally’s Beauty, if you have one near you. This one you have to dilute with water per use. I‘ve never used Nairobi, but if you can’t get your hands on LB, Keracare’s setting lotion is pretty good.
@@DolceDawn Dolce, I thought I had written a question yesterday but I cannot find it, so sorry if I did and I'm badgering you :) What relaxer do you use? I usually use Affirm Fiberguard but it's no longer sold at my city Beauty Supply store or in all of Canada so either I buy it online or I switch to another relaxer? So, what do you use? to add it to my suggested relaxers. Thanks. Dany
Hey, Dany! I use a relaxer called Precise. It comes in a white and purple box, and can be found at many BS stores as well as Sally Beauty. I will do a vid about it soon. Let me know if you’re able to find it. And in no way are you badgering me. Ask away! 😉
@@DolceDawn thanks!! I just came from the local bss really quick because of the confinment, and bought a small jar of ORS lye and a big tub of Mizani lye relaxers. I'll do a strand test in a few hours and will see. My mom uses Mizani but I was using Affirm. Thanks!
Hey, sharon! Since Infusium23 is not a protein driven leave-in (i.e., not a protein treatment) and relies on goodies like panthenol (which improves hair’s elasticity as well as its ability to maintain moisture, and adds shine) to enrich hair, it should be safe to use by all hair types.
That Theorie shampoo and conditioner has been discontinued. I've been looking for it, and I have not been able to find it at Marshalls or TJ Maxx. It's not even on the Theorie website. Have you used Olaplex? If so, how do you like it?
Hey, gemruby41! Ironic, isn’t it, how I talk about companies discontinuing things we love only to find out AFTER I recorded and posted this that Theorie did the same exact thing! Sorry about that. On the other hand, I guess I’ll be trying some of their other stuff since the brand overall is consistently good. Yes, I’ve tried Olaplex! I like it a lot. Wrote about it on my blog and was going to include it in a relaxer hair care regimen post. Have you tried it?
@@DolceDawn I've used Olaplex in the past. It feels like protein on my hair. Do you do protein treatments on your hair? If you do, how often do you do them?
Hmm... I haven’t used a protein treatment on my hair for years now. When I did, I used Aubrey’s GPB ( wonder if they still make that!). I loved it; made my hair soft and not hard. I’m wary of traditional protein treatments that harden your hair like cardboard. Olaplex doesn’t feel like that on my hair. Otherwise, I probably wouldn’t use it.
Dolce Dawn I think they discontinued or changed the formula of GPB, and it’s hard to find it. I was using the Olapkex weekly, so that could have been why my hair felt dry like too much protein.
You’re right - they DID change the GPB formula. Looks like they added a vanilla scent (just checked their site). I was using Olaplex once a week, too, but it didn’t make my hair dry. My hair felt pretty normal afterwards. Now I use it now and again a week after relaxing.
Hey, Sueño Mouse! I know... 😢. But I do like and have used KeraCare’s styling lotion as well. That’s what I’ll be using when I finally run out of the WnT that I have left.
@@DolceDawn I found & bought Lottabody's Sleek Me Blowout Lotion. Used that along with all the other products you mentioned and my hair came out fantastic. Thanks again.
@@SuenoMouse Wow! I’ve never even heard of that one! I will have to look for it, especially since you tried and liked it. Thank you for telling me about it... and so glad that your hair came out great!
Hmm... depends on what you’re looking for. I like products that are “nourishing” or “moisturizing”. With that being said, I used to use KeraCare Detangling poo on my regular wash day (along with my Garnier) before finding Theorie. Now I just use it on relaxer day. Very moisturizing. Before that, Aveda Sap Moss poo...
