Okay but why does my hair become extremely tangled and fragile as soon as I use protein rich products?

as a protein biochemist, thank you for this🙏no one listens and it's literally not a thing. Proteins are so much more complex than some people make them out to be, they're extremely unstable and hard to work with😮💨

I would really love to debate with someone on this and understand where they come from because the scientific evidence is overwhelming

Formulating products is so complex, to reduce it to single ingredients does everyone a disservice. Have we learnt nothing from demonising silicones 🤦🏼♀️

Protein overload is real! just because science hasn’t caught up doesn’t mean it’s not valid. Lived experience is data. People’s hair literally reacts to too much protein with dryness, breakage, and frizz. Science follows observation, not the other way around.

So does it matter the hair type? I have low porosity hair and always been told to stay away from protein products?

I think protein overload refers to a moisture-protein imbalance. I had been using many protein heavy products unknowingly and added to this by using the Curlsmith Rehab Bond Salve on my hair and I left it on for an hour. Then after washing I used the Briogeo Don’t Despair Repair mask which is also high protein. Immediately my hair felt terrible- crunchy, tangled, brittle, frizzy, no curl. In order to fix it, I had to go protein free for a couple washes and I had to use deep conditioners that were highly moisturizing. This corrected the imbalance allowing me to reintroduce protein. Going forward, I need to be mindful of using products that are more balanced with both protein and moisturizing ingredients.

Is this the difference between a tricologist and a hairdresser? Honestly most hairdressers have no advise when it comes to caring for bleached and damaged hair.

I'm sorry, but I apply a lot of K18 and that was the only change I made and my hair is sooo brittle and dry, wow. I admit that it was my fault because I applied too much.
