Henna used on the hair for a period of time creates a barrier around the hair's cuticle layer making it extremely difficult for the Retex product to penetrate the hair cuticle, so in order to achieve the best results, the product may have to stay in the hair for a longer duration than stated in the instructions. It does work on henna hair, but u have to keep a close eye on the hair during the procedure.

I am not sure if it is safe for keratin treated hair. You should check with your hair stylist to be sure.

This particular version of the product is meant to preserve color treatments, which it does well. There is a version that is for normal hair, but even then I suspect that it wouldn't preserve the keratin treatment. It's not designed for that. It might perhaps prove to be too much keratin, in fact. I would recommend focusing on a quality shampoo for normal hair or possibly a quality shampoo for "chemically treated" hair. The best idea might be to check with a hair stylist first for advice.

It's mainly used after the treatment. You can use it on it's own but remember if you color your hair, this isn't recommended. If you color your hair, use the Redken Sulfate free products. (I buy the liter from Hair Cuttery when they come on sale). Also, this trio is highly concentrated and if you buy the bigger Shampoo and Conditioner, it won't yield the same results. This has been my experience thus far anyways. Hope this helps!

I am sorry I am not sure. All the ingredients seem to be natural, but that doesn't always mean it is ok for treated hair. I would see if you can go to companies website and ask them. I am sorry I was not more help for you.

You can surely use it! I've been using it since I relaxed my hair and damaged it. I leave it on as long as I can; a day or even two and then wash it off. My hair was feeing so dry and like straw and also breaking. This treatment has it feeling like real hair again. I'm super happy with it. I'm going to keep using it because I need this damaged hair to be decent until my natural hair grows back. Might be a long answer but I hope it helps!

Hi Bev, I'm not a hair specialist so can only answer from my experience. This product is very good on my hair, making it feel healthy and not dry etc. I color regularly, but not bleach or highlights, and I don't have breakage problems so I can't really say whether it would help with your situation. I can tell you, from long ago experience, if your hair is breaking now, the best you can do for yourself is to give it a break, and just nourish your hair with gentle shampoo, rich conditioner, and some masks, and don't bleach again until the breakage is under control. These would be good shampoo/conditioner for babying your hair for a time. Be advised, the shampoo is concentrated, so you only need a little bit. When I put the conditioner on, I leave it while I shower, then I add a Keratin cream rinse a couple times a week too. I think some Keratin treatment in addition to this product set can only help you, if you don't mind the suggestion from a lay-person. Good luck.

I read the label at the back which says 'Maintains healthy PH balance'. I use it coz its chemical free and it makes my hair soft and manageable. Coz usually the chemical free shampoos dont really go well with my hair. And the I keep buying them and giving them away coz they dont suit my hair. I have stuck to this product ever since i used it.

It's very safe because the shampoo its self is a conditioner texture like liquid . It's like washing your hair with your conditioner at home . There is no foam like regular shampoo so Wen's cleaners doesn't have that strong chemical to wash out colors.

I usually pour in boiling water, stir henna really well and then just let it sit until it is not too hot to apply. I don't wait any certain time period just more "is it too hot or not" test. I used it for over 17 years now. Sometimes I use it on chemically treated, and bleached hair---it really heals my hair! The only issue is---it washes off much faster from damaged hair. Right now I'm re-coloring my previously strawberry blond, with lighter highlights, hair and I have to apply henna every month to maintain nice and even color. I usually keep henna on for at least 3hours. I think I see best results at ~5h. I usually pour in boiling water, stir henna really well and then just let it sit until it is not too hot to apply.

I never put this product on my hair while wet. I only use it to shine my hair. I have pressed and flat ironed it while it was in my hair, but I did not have flakes. There is a solution that is in the same type of bottle but it is not the anti-breakage serum. I forgot what it was but I thought it was this product. When I saw it it was as lotion and dried like an awful dandruff. This serum is a clear thick oil that is not very greasy.

Yes. My hair was highlighted when I had the perm put in. There was no damage done. However, I did wait for a few weeks between color & perm. Best perm I ever had. I bought two and am waiting to use the other one.

My husband is actually a hair transplant surgeon in mexico. The oil and shampoo can help, but are you currently using minoxidil or finasteride? We both just started using the shampoo, conditioner and oil last week because we both lose hair when we get stressed. I notice my hair breaking less and he likes the oil because it doesn't dry out his hair like minoxidil, but we need to use it a couple more weeks before I can give you an honest result. I feel like my hair is breaking and falling out less but that could just be me being hopeful!

Unfortunately I used this on all natural hair. I believe it's safe but can't speak from experience.

I have never used the Just for Me so I don't know. Usually had professional straighten the hair & decided to do it myself. Have used it 3 times and it turns out great. Use Mizani Phormula 7 Neutralizing & Chelating Shampoo & Mizani Butter Perfhecting Blend Creme Normalizing Conditioner with it.

I agree with ayana. The product leaves my hair really stiff after. It's hard for me to style my hair after. I usually only use this if I know I am going to put my hair in a bun or mix it with my deva curl one conditioner.
