Anti-Breakage Challenge - You Have 1 Month To Stop Breakage In It's Tracks!

By . - Friday, November 18, 2011

So your suffering from breakage and you just about had enough. It's time to take an aggressive 1 month plan on breakage. Here is what I suggest.

Use the Gelatin Hair Treatment that I gave you the recipe to for your hard protein days, Organic Root Stimulator Hair Mayonnaise for medium protein days and a generous amount of coconut or olive oil added to the ORS mayonnaise for light protein days. Remember that this is an aggressive approach to hair breakage.

This month you will not be using any direct heat.  Just say no to:

  • Curling Irons
  • Flat Irons
  • Hot Rollers
  • Direct Blow Drying


Week 1
  • Shampoo your hair with a clarifying shampoo
  • Follow-up with a moisturizing shampoo
  • Apply a hard protein conditioner (Gelatin Hair Treatment) to the hair and let it sit for 30 minutes. 
  • Rinse thoroughly and do not detangle! 
  • Apply a moisturizing deep conditioner and detangle your hair gently
  • Apply a leave-in treatment, moisturize and seal the hair.
  • Roller set the hair, air dry or do a braid out/twist out

Week 2



  • Apply a medium protein conditioner (Organic Root Stimulator Hair Mayonnaise) as a pre-poo, and allow it to sit for 30 minutes.
  • Follow-up with a moisturizing shampoo.
  • Deep condition with a moisturizing conditioner under a hood dryer for 30 minutes. 
  • Rinse and apply a leave-in treatment, moisturize and seal the hair.
  • Roller set the hair, air dry or do a braid out/twist out

Week 3
  • Apply a moisturizing conditioner as a pre-poo and allow it to sit for 30 minutes.
  • Follow-up with a moisturizing shampoo.
  • Deep condition with a light protein conditioner (ORS Mayonnaise with a lot of Coconut or Olive oil added) under a hood dryer for 30 minutes. 
  • Rinse and apply a leave-in treatment, moisturize and seal the hair.
  • Roller set the hair, air dry or do a braid out/twist out

Week 4
  • Shampoo your hair with a clarifying shampoo
  • Follow-up with a moisturizing shampoo
  • Apply a hard protein conditioner (Gelatin Hair Treatment) to the hair and let it sit for 30 minutes. 
  • Rinse thoroughly and do not detangle! 
  • Apply a moisturizing deep conditioner and detangle your hair gently
  • Apply a leave-in treatment, moisturize and seal the hair.
  • Roller set the hair, air dry or do a braid out/twist out

This 1 month plan on breakage will help give you a protein to moisture balance and bring your hair back to health. Keep track of how your hair is responding with a hair journal and remember to be consistent. I really hope this helps everyone.
