My hair is in its natural state, and was wondering if this hair mask is more of a protein conditioner and if it is ok to use it on a weekly basis

Hi Bridget I would lean toward protein conditioner. I have been using it once a week for couple of months mainly because I have relaxed and fine hair, fragile and was looking for something to reduce my breakage. The mask smells amazing and leaves you with a smooth textured hair, but my breakage did not reduce with the speed I expected. Overall is a nice mask, but a little too expensive for the results. But maybe is my hair....

I use it weekly. A little goes a long way. Makes my hair super soft. I don't think it is a protein treatment. I'm 9 months transitioning.

Hi Bridget according to their description this product works for all hair types. As far as it being more of a protein conditioner I cannot say but I personally use it once every 2 weeks. On the official website one reviewer stated she used it once a week. I hope this helps some.

No its not it can be used for both relaxed and natural hair. I'm currently transitioning and it works perfect for my hair

Yes it is. I love using it. I use it with my deep conditioner and henna treatment. My hair is in love with it. And with regular use it really works. You just need to find out what way your hair likes for you to use it.

This is a hair conditioning masque, as opposed to the regular conditioner in the line. Usually meant to be used sporadically. I use it everyday however and have found it to condition my non textured straight hair really well! Much better than the regular ever creme conditioner which I have also used.

Yes. I use it as a regular conditioner daily ( I have really curly hair and so I just conditioner wash and go.) But once a week I leave it in for 30-40 minutes after a complete wash. I've recommended this product to a lot of my friends and it really works!!! I would advise that you put a little bit of olive or coconut oil in your hair while deep conditioning. It will help you lock in moisture and nutrients after you wash it out.

The consistence is very soft and nice. I would say that yes, it could be used as conditioner as well, but I still use a mask or a mosturizing conditioner afterwards at least just in the ends.

My honest opinion is that it would be to much protein and too much protein will make your hair dry and brittle. I used it with a protein conditioner and it made my hair very dry.

Love to answer anything on my favorite Conditioner ever! Most people use this once maybe twice a month just as a deep conditioner. I myself I have hair down the middle of my back it's very thick. ..I wash about every three days sometimes more. I use this every time I wash I've the rinse but I just can't get away from the mask. I know you don't need a lot but I'm pretty generous with mine I totally coat my hair clip it up while I do something else. One tub has taken me over a month! What is left is probably a good 5 more washes.

I don't believe it's good for everyday use but my wife uses this product once a week and she has dry hair. Her hair comes on great.

No I do not use this like regular conditioner. I use this as a special treatment every other week.

Since I get my hair done every 2 weeks I use it every 2 weeks. I leave it on for 20 - 25 minutes with a plastic cap and sit under the drier. Using it once a week shouldn't be a problem. You can ask your beautician what they recommend. I agree with the other comment: it depends on how damage your hair is. Hope my comments help you.

YES! My hair was thinning- I'm a black woman and my hair doesn't grow very fast but I got the ShenMin, had my hair braided under extentions for a month & had almost 2 inches of THICK new growth after using this. I actually went natural and now have a Head full of thick hair I use this faithfully- the only thing is because its a vitamin its best to take RIGHT before when you eat otherwise it will make you snack happy.

I'm not sure about the protein thing. I do know that ordinarily I have a ton of breakage because my hair is curly and dry and this has definitely helped so much

Non-expert here; you could use it daily, as often as you wash your, or only on days you feel your hair needs it. I look at it as a single use product and not something with accumulating effects. Hope that helps.

It's protein.Hair loves protein so I will say yes.U just a have to build a routine specifically for yourself.Perhaps, add an oil your hair likes.Use it before or after shampooing. Leaving it for (×) amount of time. Etc.

I would say yes. Its just a gentle cleanser and it helps to keep your hair moisturized, as shampoo can sometimes strip the hair. I don't think it is something that is only for 'natural' hair, but for all hair types.

Yes. I have natural 4C African American hair and I think this is personally a great product to have in my arsenal. When you are transitioning through those stages it can be really hard to keep your hair moisturized but I use it daily, and extra on wash day. I also add it to my homemade hair masks that I like to do a couple times a week.
