Aphogee…one of my new faves
As some of you might know, Ive become totally addicted to the hair community on YouTube. There are so many ladies out there who are doing it for themselves and are mastering their own hair. I love it! One of the ladies on YouTube by the name of Ateyya – she has quite the following has shared her wonderful experience using Aphogee hair products. I was a little unsure if this was a product line that i wanted to pick up and try, but after much research I decided – why not..
I went to the beauty supply (Keele and Sheppard) store and picked up a medium size bottle of Aphogee Two Minute Keratin Treatment. I used that for a couple of weeks and in general I had no complaints. So I decided to take it one step further and try a stronger treatment – Aphogee 2 Step Protein Treatment. Now I was hesitant to use the product because its says for professional use and while I was doing research a lot of people cautioned against using it unless you were absolutely sure you knew how to use it.
The key thing is, I did my research. So, one Saturday afternooon I decided to wash my hair using regular shampoo then I appled the 2 step with a spray bottle. I sat under the dryer and my hair got HARD. Really hard – it was like I had helmet head. After I washed it out, followed up with the Aphogee Balancing Conditioner. I then added created my own deep treatment (no proteins) and left that on over night to ensure that my hair would be well moisturized when I washed it out.
I must say, I will be using the Aphogee 2 Step Treatment again. The stuff stinks but I think it really works. Ever since using the product, I feel like my hair is stronger – has more elasticity and I don’t feel like it sheds as much. Now, the treatment is really suggested for people who have damaged and breaking hair – I had neither – but I do think that my hair benefitted. It says to do the treatment every 6 six weeks, but i think I will do it once every 3 months.
My advice to anyone who is thinking of trying it – please do you research. Read the ingrendients, understand what you are putting in your hiar. Consult a professional. And good luck!

Hi i was wondering if you knew what i might be able to use as oil in my hair ? Hair greese breaks my skin out but my scalp gets so dry i don’t know what to do???????
Hi Sandra, I totally understand what you mean – grease and I do not mix. I would try oils like jojoba and or castor to use on your scalp. They are moisturizing and often can help to stimulate hair growth. Let me know how it goes.
