I'm African American with type 4 hair. What results can I expect after using this product?

The product does what it says if you use it correctly. I'd recommend having someone who is used to dealing with perms and relaxers do it for you though. Its tempting to leave it on longer than you should, but don't! That's how your hair gets fried! Also you will want to start using a weekly deep conditioner after this and expect to have to trim the ends after the treatment since split ends will be more noticeable.

Although I am not African American, I believe it will work well on it. My wife had it on high at first. She turned it down about 2/3 the way and it still straightened her hair nicely. Her hair is medium thickness and pretty curly. I think 3/4 on the heat would do for African American hair. I hope I helped you. Christine

I have somewhat thick and a lot of it, Caucasian hair. Mine has been colored a lot but wasn't recently before using this... It wasn't the keratin formula that did the most damage, but rather the cleansing shampoo in the beginning. It made my hair feel like HAY. I would honestly not use this again. It wasn't worth the results for me.

My own hair is curly but I am not Afro American. However, friends of mine who are use the products with really great results (they do not relax it and they have really nice springy, defined curls!) . It is the moisturizing nature of this product line that makes is perfect for your type hair (assuming it is coarse and curly since you asked). I would not hesitate to try it. You might want to try Fig for the most moisture and use it with Tea Tree (which everyone should use!). Start with the cleanser and the styling gel (any scent you like) and make the oils a close third you try. The oils (any scent you like) can be used the night before you cleanse your hair and if you have very coarse hair you can even mix a few drops in with your styling creme to add moisture and shine during the day. If you start off with that approach you will get the best results for your type hair. As you use the products you will learn what is best for in the line. Try it, I have a feeling you'll like it. My friends, hisband and I won't do without it now!

I am african american :o) So yep it works for us! My daughter confirmed tonight my pores are definitely smaller. Of course, as with any new product, test it on a small patch of skin just to make sure it agrees with you. I hope you like it if you try it :o)

Sorry I am not sure. HSI is professional quality and used in many salons so my research included a few calls to my hair stylist to ask her opinion. Maybe u can call a place that works mainly with African American hair to get more info :) Good luck & I hope it works out for u!

Yes, its good for all types of hair..I am haitian American and my other half is European Caucasian..I had some thining going on around my temple and he had some thinning going on at the crown of his head..its not a cure all but we both definitely see a improvement in our hair. Its something you have to take on the regular and it also grows lashes along with hair..so be warned your legs n other hairy non mentionables will be sprouting rapid fast too. Just a fyi lol

Hi, I have African American 3B or C also. After conditioning I put coconut oil on hair and then the Giovanni on top. Twist my hair, let it air dry and untwist the next morning. Gently comb into curly afro. If you have dry hair, you might need to add some type of oil also to combat the dryness. I really like the GDLI as it makes my hair very soft, but then it still holds it pattern. I hope this helps.

Yes it has. I really like the product too. You won't have results in the blink of an eye but give it like two weeks. I'm African American and I apply it to the bald spot, rub in a circular motion for a few minutes and brush with a hard boar hair brush (I think that's the specific name of the brush) to stimulate my scalp. I hope this help ;-)

Yes it does help on african American hair, I have pretty similar to african American hair because my hair is thick, coarse, and dry, and it helped me for about 5 to 6 months, also is the frequency that you wash your hair with that will determine whether or nother it lasts you or not. By the way I suggest getting 2 sets instead of one because even though it is plenty it wasnot enough for me because my hair absorbs fast and I have a lot of hair

It depends on what hair type you have. I have African American hair and it completely dried my hair out, but my roommate had white people hair and she said the product worked well for her. She did use the conditioner at all

I've used it with the same results. I alwas preferred the light brown because, to me, it looked like my natural color and didn't look like you did anything to your hair at all. I think the new product can darken a bit more or I might be imagining it. Be careful "Touch of Gray" and "Just For Men" are two different products.

I'm not sure, my hair is soft and curly and it always grew, but started breaking more..causing me have to cut it more often. I hear that Hairfinity is great for black carribean hair..I only really noticed a huge, noticeable difference in growth when I got a great haircut..my hair shot down quickly afterwards. I also threw out all of my Pantene products and only use Agadir shampoo and Deva Curl conditioner...my hair is much thicker and longer now. It's more than nutrition, you have to be careful of the hair products that are causing damage as well..good luck!

I honestly don't know because I ended throwing out this product. Hair got worse the longer I used it.

I bought it for my 18 year old son because we have genetic hair loss in the family. He just rubbed it in after shampooing and towel drying. There was no change in the appearance of his hair or he wouldn't have used it. Don't know yet if it is effective after on,y one month of use.
