I know this is somewhere in the 58 pages, but I have no time to go through 58 pages to find answers :p

Anyway, for you girls with the BB, how often do you wash your hair? Normally I can get away with 2x a week, but I was outside all day in the sun laying out, so my hair is disgusting--and I just washed it yesterday. Of course I'm going to wash it again tonight, but I'm curious about everyone--especially those of you who go to the gym and such.
I try to stick to 2x a week since I'm afraid I'm going to wash too much, which will lessen the treatment time. Am I better off rinsing with water in these situations?
 
heh. i tend to do about 2x's a week but when it gets to be summer, i sweat a lot. so i just did it once every 2 days (with the third wash just rubbing my scalp with water) and i always conditioned the pony tail part of my hair. but i also should mention that i usually put no product in my hair so other than sweat, i didn't have to shampoo every 3rd wash to clean much out.

it is supposed to help last longer if you use the BB brand shampoo and conditioner too.
 
I shampoo every other day. Maybe rinse it/cond every second day and then wash it the next night?
For example wash on Sunday, rinse/cond Monday or Tues, wash on Wed, rinse/cond on Thurs or Fri, etc. . .
 
I'm ordering some of the solution now - I'm due to get my hair coloured next Friday, so will probably wait until after then to try it out...so excited!!! But a little nervous too.

I'll update as soon as I've done it - watch this space!!
 
I had this done about a week ago. My hair isn't very long so I wasn't sure if I would really see the benefit of it. I have thicker, wavy hair that is a bit of a pain to try and straighten. It has been even worse in the humidity and heat of the summer. I've been trying to let it grow out some but it just wasn't working. It was either straighten it or cut it.

The first few days my hair felt a little flat and greasy. I went ahead and washed my hair every day using all of the BB products. I was amazed that I could let my hair dry naturally and then just use the blow dryer to fluff it up a little. I could never do that before!! My current style is an angled bob but I don't like it straight, I like a little body in it. Now I use a round brush to dry my hair to put some fullness in it but it dries quicker. I don't have to do much of anything to it after that for it to look great!

My only complaint is that they can't get it too close to the skin. I certainly understand why, my eyes burned quite a bit while having it done! The hair in front of my ears tends to curl up a bit and I have to use the flat iron on that.

It has certainly cut my time needed for my hair in half if not more. I highly recommend it. However, I'm not sure how in the world anyone could do it themselves.
 
Just had mine redone and can't believe how long I went w/o! The keratin treatment only roughed up my hair, the BB made it amazing again.

Don't know if I can go back to my old salon (the one that only does keratin) anymore - they'll know I cheated lol
 
i never want mine to wash out :D
so i never force wash it out.

lol. I'm sure I'll be saying that again in a few months but right now I miss my curls. I got my last one on March 31st Nd my curls still aren't back. :(

I will say that I'm on my 2nd try of trying to wash out my BB and I can see a little difference. I'm impatient and I want it out now!
