Testing Hair Repair Treatments
Today I tested, compared, and rated 5 Hair Repair Treatments. I chose the very best and the most expensive.
#1 Rezz A Rect
#2 Winn
#3 KPac
#4 Trauma Treatment
#5 BioLustre
#6 Kronos
Model with frizzy, curly, and fine hair was slightly damaged and broke off with moderate tug during the stretch test.
Step 1- The hair was shampooed and divided into 2 sections.
Step 2- Rezz a rect was applied to left half of head. Processed under heat for 10 min, rinsed, dried a small section and Stretch Tested again. The hair stretched 60% further without breaking and contracted to original length.
Step 3- Trauma Treatment was applied to Right section and followed directions- processed 10 min and rinsed. Stretch Tested and reported the hair broke when stretched less than 5% and snapped with a sound!
Step 4- BioLustre was tested on Right side and followed directions. After Stretch Testing, the result was the same as above. Only a 5% stretch was done before it snapped
Step 5- Winn was applied and directions followed on the Right side. After rinsing the hair was feeling so slick and satiny. It felt great. After drying and Stretch Testing, the hair was breaking with less force applied. It was beginning to break with less that 5% stretch.
Step 6- KPac applied to The Right side of head and followed directions. After rinsing and drying the hair was Stretched Tested and discovered hair even easier to break.
- My Tests show that Rezz A Rect hair stretched 60% after.
- Tests show the hair treated 4 times with Kronos, Trauma Treatment, BioLustre, Winn, and Kronos was breaking easier than before the treatment.
Conclusion: Rezz A Rect restores elasticity and stops hair from breaking. The Rezz a rect repaired hair is "chemical service"-ready immediately following the treatment. Hair treated with the best most expensive brands of hair repair treatments had less elasticity than before the treatments.
