Hey, Debra! So glad you were able to find Theorie and that it’s working for you! When I went looking a few wks ago at TJ’s, there was barely anything - only one bottle of Theorie conditioner. Yeah, I got relaxed in my late teens and haven’t looked back since. 💁🏾♀️

I pulled the plug and placed an order for my Theorie shampoo. I ordered the Green Tea and Amber Rose. The Green Tea is for damage hair and even though my hair is not damage it is relaxed so the healthier the better. I ordered the Amber Rose for the hydration and moisture, soft hair is the best. 400ml for $7.99 from Marshals. I can’t wait to receive and try it

Do you put any moisturizer, oil, or serum on your hair through out the week to keep it moisturized?
@DolceDawn4 жыл бұрын
Hey! No, I don’t put anything extra on my hair after my initial wash and styling. I really believe that with the right products and care (e.g. wearing a silk scarf/bonnet at night, keeping ends trimmed, no harsh styling, etc.), you really shouldn’t need to constantly oil/moisturize your hair during the week. When you go to a salon, typically you don’t need to do it. So should it be when you do it yourself.

You’re right - they DID change the GPB formula. Looks like they added a vanilla scent (just checked their site). I was using Olaplex once a week, too, but it didn’t make my hair dry. My hair felt pretty normal afterwards. Now I use it now and again a week after relaxing.
