I have tried many products like Biosilk silk therapy, conditioner and water rinsing, topical shining, spray shining, anti-frizz and nothing seems to restore it. I have called the stylists who work with these extensions every day and they just keep suggesting the Biosilk. I was told by one manufacturer that there is nothing you can do to restore the soft luxurious sheen of new human hair extensions. Is there anyone who has found a way to do this?
What will keep the gorgeous sheen on brand new human hair extensions? I've even tried calling the manufacturer
sheen spray!
Reply:The only thing that will work is Oil Sheen. I'd use something light too. You dont want to bog your extensions down with a lot of chemicals. But whatever it is you decide to use... use only one product for best results.
Reply:hey i'm hairdresser, i am trained in extensions and i wear extensions.
problem is with most extensions tht r human, the cuticle has been stripped during the harsh chemical processing. what most manufactureres do is coat the hair in silicone and enzymes to make it soft and shiny. after several shampoo's tht coating wears off.
ive tht exact same problem with mine...and its been a lil trial and error, but i think ive kinda got the hang of it.
because when u get extensions, they r ALOT of high maintenance...u have add moisture to em cos because they dont it get it naturally like ur own does.
doing conditioning treatments helps...ive found mixing 2 together really helps.
also using a maintenance spray will help.
(cos i;m hairdresser i;m a lil product happy so when i did get extensions i didnt really change my routine to my hair too much)
so...
1) shampoo - i use matrix biolage ultra hydrating shampoo
2) conditioner i use Aussie 3 min miracle reconstructor and TIGI dumb blonde conditioner - dont b afraid to mix 2 or 3 conditioners
3) after towel drying hair i use a leave in conditioner - sallys own brand Tea Tree leave in conditioner. this helps detangle the hair.(when detangle extensions work from the ends up to the roots it minimises damage)
4) b4 blow drying i use fantasia hair polisher mist (can b found in sallys hair and beauty) and TIGI ego boost. when blow drying section the hair - makes it easier and doesnt damage the hair as much.
5) after blow drying i use a serum on my hair so smooth it over..i then secetion hair off and str8en.
6) i use a smoothing cream to stop it frizzing up.
dont 4get theres different qualities of hair - most comes from asia..usually india or china...some claim to b european but they arent. (european hair is not strong enough to go thro all the chemical processing and then still b classed as usuable where as asian hair is naturally alot stronger and can withstand all the chemicals)
the true way to get good hair extensions is to get remy hair, but this costs alot, but remy hair is hair where it still has the cuticle
any more q's email me

Chi hair straightener products?
Well, I got my hair done today and the lady decided to try out the new Chi Wet to Dry straightener. Afterwards she put in some biosilk product in my hair. My hair feels so amazingly soft feels like it won't ever get tangled. I was wondering. Should I splurge on the wet to dry straightener, buy the biosilk or get another chi straightener. I have spent so much money on my hair and am tired of it getting frizzy if bad weather hits.
Chi hair straightener products?
Yess,
Just buy it,
It lasts for a while,
And the products are amazing,
So I would if I were you.
Andd CHI straighteners don't break within 6 months like the person above me said,
I had mine for 3 years,
and it works perfectly fine.
Just don't get the colored ones,
Cause for some reason they don't work as well.
=]
Hope this helped.
Reply:do it!%26gt;:) one of my good friends has curly hair. and everyday in the morning, she uses a wet-to-dry straightener and uses products like biosilk, john freida, christophe, and such. try any of these and it will help your hair not be so tangled:) so long at you use a brush. and try using a boar bristle brush;).
+ what I use to protect my hair from the heat damaging from ironing products is Tresemme "Heat Tamer Spray". I used it today and it works most deifnitely:).
hope this helps you out.
Reply:biosilk, without a doubt. chi straighteners break within 6 months like 90% of the time. my sister's broke like 3 days after she got it.
they're extremely overrated, and wet to dry straightening is horrible for your hair, no matter what the brand or how it feels afterwards. it singes your hair. the only reason chi's make your hair so straight is because the heat is really high.
Reply:spend the money on a good umbrella for now. it's a whole lot less expensive. wait for x-mas when the price goes down.

My hair is frizzy how do i calm it down? I dont want that oily crap like biosilk!?
Try using a humidifier or filling your bathroom sink 1/3 full of water at night.
Herbal Essence makes a shampoo and Conditioner for static hair, and they also have a leave in conditioner,
Use a vent brush
rub your hands with a dryer sheet and then rub your hands through your hair - do not rub the dryer sheet directly onto your hair
Spray static guard on your brush and then brush through your hair
Use a cream rinse
Use a hot oil every 2 weeks
Go to the hair salon and have them do the Japanese Hair Straightening
Pantene makes a spray in conditioner
These are also good products - Bed Head, Bio Silk, Bain de Terre, John Freida
Do not use the Chi straightener - get a Sedu (www.folica.com)

Reply:try apple vinegar
after you wash and condition your hair, then just get a mixture of apple vinegar and water (1oz vinegar, 7 oz water) and just rinse your hair with it. Then, rinse your hair with regular cold water
Reply:A good anti-static brush can help...I got one for Christmas and it helps a lot but then after I blow dry my hair (not on highest hot), I usually spray my hair with some leave-on conditioner for frizz control.
Reply:John Freida Frizz Eaze Hair Serum (about $10) is amazing. The trick is to smooth 1-2 pumps through WET hair before styling.
Reply:try john freeda(wrong spelling ,i know) anti frizz serum!it may help...
Reply:if i dont use a conditoner...my hair is frizzy...so maybe it will work for you?
Reply:Rusk Sheer Brilliance Polisher Lustrant. I work in a salon- it is amazing! No animal testing and contains no animal derived ingredients!
Reply:haha i kno exactly how you feel!!!
my hair is curly so i have sooooo many frizzies! try mousse (i like l'oreal, but there are others) that you add when your hair is still wet (right out of the shower)
then, it dries with sooo many fewer frizzies!
Reply:Wash your hair with "None of your frizzness" herbal essences shampoo and conditioner. Also your "kiwi" If you are styling yuor hair you can also put a little dime sized circle of the conditioner in the palm of your hand and rub it thruogh your hair. Also if you want it curly or straight try loreal studio line hot straight/curly (pink bottle)
Reply:i dont think biosilk is oily at all.
you should give it a try.
it just depends on the amount you use.

What shampoo will keep my hair straight the best ive wanted to use biosilk but im not sure it it will work?
i have a chi and it works great on my hair but humidity makes my hair kind of flip out i need a shampoo to help prevent that
What shampoo will keep my hair straight the best ive wanted to use biosilk but im not sure it it will work?
No shampoo, conditioner or smoothing product is guaranteed to keep hair straight. Also, the elements of where you live play a huge factor in how your hair behaves.
Here is a remedy that works for every hair type, however, you must be willing to spend time on your hair to optimize the effects:
Try AVEDA Smooth Infusion Shampoo and Conditioner. It smooths and softens hair up to 60% when used together. After you shampoo, combine a dime size of AVEDA Hang Straight with @ 5 drops of AVEDA Light Elements Smoothing Fluid, emulsify in your palm and distribute evenly through your hair. Next Blowdry with a round large boar bristle brush and finish what ever you cannot straighten with a flat iron and complete the process with AVEDA Air Control Hair Spray for humidity control.
Reply:Redken smooth down shampoo and conditioner, then try the treatment called sleek obedience.
Reply:I've used the biosilk stuff that you put in to straighten your hair. It works very good for the humidity and I live in Fl so lots of humidity. I would imagine the shampoo works really good too.
Reply:Garnier Sleek and Shine SHEER. Or you could try Sunsilk, the purple kind...
Reply:What you want is a silicone serum. Silicone coats the hair and protects it from the effects of humidity. A shampoo really won't achieve that.
Avoid serums with alcohol or water, like Biosilk, Frizz Ease, Garnier or several others. They dry out the hair or just aren't as effective because they're watered-down.
Try a pure silicone like Simply Stylin' Silk. It has not fillers and works extremely effectively in controlling frizz. Plus it makes hair very soft and shiniy. I recommend it highly.
They give out free samples at www.simplystylinhair.com.
Reply:The best shampoo for straightening would have to be herbal essences straight out! it comes in a purple bottle. It works really good because it prevents frizzies and it gives your hair extra conditioning, so it donsn't get all course! plus it smells really good! Good Luck!

I'm a guy w/ dry& coarse hair, could I use biosilk serum?
Or is that only for women? If not then whats a good hair product I can use?
I'm a guy w/ dry%26amp; coarse hair, could I use biosilk serum?
yeah use it i use it and it helps my dry coarse hair but i find it works best when i have damp hair otherwise it makes the hair oily lookin try some hot oil serums too they will help
Reply:Sure go for it, if your wallet agrees. Need cash for that. Or try Sunsilk lineup. Google that.Freebies right now at www.startsampling.com for sunsilk products, made by Suave by Helen curtis.
Reply:The biosilk serum is for both men and women. You might want to try the Ion brand serum that is sold at Sally's beauty supply stores, it's much cheaper and works exactly the same.
Reply:sure. but when my hair gets dryed out i used a little manayes on it and it soften my hair up
Reply:Its not only for women, it will probably work well on your hair. It might not hurt to use the whole product line if you have dry, coarse hair.

What is the difference between a Farouk CHI and a Farouk BioSilk flat iron straightener?
Which is better?
What is the difference between a Farouk CHI and a Farouk BioSilk flat iron straightener?
One is a professional product tool (CHI) and one is for the non-professional usage. IMO The CHI is better but don't use it every day unless you have it on the lowest temp.
