Avlon Texture Release

[@just_shaeee]

I’m here because I lost my instructions. 😂 I had a stylist complete my 1st texture release. I did my 2nd & I’ll be doing my 3rd one this year. (I was a licensed stylist but let my license lapse after going to NP school.) No heat damage so far. Hair’s easier to manage so less breakage. I work out 5-6 days a week & it holds up better than just a silk press without the texture release. I’m considered 3c/4a. I love it. I’m sold.

[@656rntndj]

Do you do it at 400 for 3 passes or 450 for 7 passes?

[@jcsgrl359]

I do 3 at this point maybe 2. This my 6th go round and I only try and do new growth.

[@TheSnasy]

I had a texture release a year ago, and was so satisfied of the results. I wore my hair for 2 weeks straight, and went back to my routine: washing/cornrows/wigs, the difference this time was that my hair was way more manageable and this for at least 6-7 months

[@sevenzenhair67]

Yes that’s what keratins do as well. That’s great it lasted 6-7 months for you.

[@gladysg949]

Did you notice any changes to your texture? I want to get it but kind of unsure.

[@lashonalee-wallace7571]

It looks great... 7 times dang. Wanted to know if this was like putting a perm in your hair?

[@sevenzenhair67]

Perm(relaxer) no not at all because it doesn’t make the hair bone straight. It makes it less frizzy and it detangle easier and blow dried quicker. You still have the volume and bounciness of natural hair but it last longer when pressed than natural hair. The biggest reason why it isn’t the same is because it isn’t permanent. It wears off.

Same in Michigan. No one messes with this one. I had to get the Chi version which I really like but I wanted the Avlon one because it's made specifically for afro hair.

[@yanaFlye]

What temperature did you flat iron on? Can u wash it? How do you maintain the straight hair like do u change the way u moisturize it??? Very interesting treatment 🤔🤔🤔

[@sevenzenhair67]

Unfortunately it’s high. I think 420 or higher. Only to lock in the treatment. When she does it again she can go back to low temps. You can shampoo it. You just have to use sulfate free products. With this treatment her hair will be more manageable. It will dry faster and stay straighter long without frizzing you.

[@yanaFlye]

Seven Zen Hair is this better than a keratin treatment or a text lax (relaxer)?

[@sevenzenhair67]

Goodgirl Hayden I think this is better because it wears off after about four months.

[@yanaFlye]

Seven Zen Hair thanks for the info will be trying this soon

[@conservativelens]

@@yanaFlye I had a keratin treatment. The treated hair remains much softer than your natural hair even after 3/4 months. You can tell different in your natural hair and the keratin treated hair. If your hair is 4C, you may have to continue to get the treatments because of the difference in texture to prevent breakage. . .like a relaxer
