Can this be used if you've had a Brazilian/Keratin Express? I used it 5 mos after a BB w/great results, but now am told not to as it has sulfides. ??

I wouldn't do anything to aggravate/upset the skin before you use this product. Just wash it and tone it, no scrubbing or rough treatment. If you do I think you increase your chances of it burning.I also wouldn't sue this product nightly, it has skin lightening agents, use it only a few times a week.

I would say it's more like a gel. You'd only use it as a spot treatment... I wouldn't put it all over my face. It says leave it on for so many minutes and wash off... I don't. I leave it on all night. (on some spots) If you only use it as a spot treatment it will only dry out the pimple. I've never used sulfur soap but I love this stuff!

Hello. It is totally ssfe to do at home and best of all does not stink. Make sure you are in a ventilated area. I do in my bedroom - bathroom, open windows and AC on as it is warm here. I put a fan on to ventilate the room well. I will not trade this Keratin for any other.

I've never used reg JBCO., matter of fact this was my first time using BCO. A friend told me abt it and said it would be good 2 use and might help the sparse edges I'm dealing with. Thus far I've seen no difference, my edges are still very thin and I'm using this product, Biotin, and Hair Infinity. My hair overall is growing like crazy but my edges aren't.

I really don't think so. I used it after I had a keratin treatment and it completely undid everything. My hair went back to what it originally was so to your question, I highly doubt it is sulfate free. I cannot tell you for sure without looking at the back of the bottom but I would not recommend this item if you had a keratin treatment. Hope this helps!

In my 30s, I still break out easily from bad products in hair/skin. This hasnt been a problem at all with Axe. But since it's so thick, I dont think it ever comes into contact with my scalp. You'd have to thin it out with water and work a ton of product in your hair to the ever reach the scalp. If your son is under 20, please research on this product's safety in teens and young men. I've read articles that it can interfere with me testosterone. Could be BS, and the report may have only been for underarm products, but definitely worth checking into. If he hasn't tried garnier fructis products yet, I have nothing but good experiences with them. They're just too pricey

I am a new user to the product and find it really great. With reference to sulfur, I cannot comment because I have no knowledge.Why not take it to a lab and get it tested???

Depends on you taking good care of it. I have done it on the salon before and they told me how to take care of it. Dont go on the beach, have to wash your hair with sulfide free shampoo. If so it should last like 3 months.

Hi! I've owned and used a hot tub now for about 10+ years. I've tried the chemical tests and all that. They are a pain. This is what I do for our San Antonio water in my small hot tub. When I change water, I use about a third of this ph decreaser. I add about three heaping caps every day until I used about a third of the bottle. I use about a tablespoon of bromine when the water is changed, then about the same every time I use the hot tub. The only I may add additional ph decreaser is if the walls of the tub change the way they feel (a little greasy). Anyway, using these two chemicals work great for me in San Antonio. Enjoy your tub and use it often! Hi! I've owned and used a hot tub now for about 10+ years. I've tried the chemical tests and all that. They are a pain.

My skin runs to the sensitive side also. I'm using it to fade dark areas and seem to be having some success.... after less than 10 days use. I haven't had any reaction to the serum whatever. I like that this product is a combination formula.. not just vitamin C serum. As a retired nurse, I wouldn't recommend using it on any broken, open or recently healed skin.

According to the directions, which state that you can "style as normal" before use...I would say yes. As far as I know it does not contain sulfites; however, even if it did...whats worse sulfites or hair loss! ...lol..

Hello... I have used this particular product by Lab Series for over 1.5 years now and believe it to be one of the best (if not the best) pre-electric shave solutions out there. Actually it's the 'only one' I'll use after experimenting with quite a few others. It does contain alcohol and I have heard that over time, alcohol will dry your skin out? After shaving I generally prefer to wash it off with a nice hot face cloth; then apply Neutrogena MEN RAZOR DEFENSE Post Shave Lotion (black tube). This is a moisturizing lotion I like very much. Has a slight clean smelling fragrance that will dissipate after 2-3 hrs. Have had no skin related issues at all with this product. Hello...

i don't know how much formaldehyde is in it. but i did notice, about this product, that while i was applying the Keratin Hair Treatment, my eyes were burning. i decided to use this product because i thought it was safer than the Brazilian Blowout treatment. i don't know if i did it right. i know i didn't answer the question, but i hope i helped in some way.

I only put it on in the morning after my spf 30 moisturizer. I use it on my entire face and neck. I would say 1/2 teaspoon about right but I have not measured. It does not break me out at all which is the problem that I had with others. I think one tube will last a long time.

Brazillian Keratin is sulfate free. It does not have Sodium Lauryl Sulfate which is the ingredient that you want to eliminate. Don't be confused with other ingredients. This is the one to avoid. I love this shampoo. It lathers and has a feel much nicer than most sulfate free shampoos.

Yes actually I have used it as a mask and it diminishes pore size, improves texture, tone, and clarifies the skin. Try a sample area if you have concerns about the purity of the sulfur powder. I leave on for 10 minutes once a week for optimal results. It saves money as an alternative to expensive facials and microderm abrasion. I still get erbium laser non-ablative skin resurfacing done once per year to improve the overall texture and totally replenish collagen. I only use jojoba oil for moisturizer. You will want to use a good organic brand sunscreen for one month prior to the laser treatment. I highly recommend this product for a variety of uses.
