I decided to dye my hair black, then I got tired of it. I thought that I could dye it a lighter color. After I tried that and found out that it wasn't possible, I stripped my hair and found out the hard way that I didn't have enough stripper for my hair. So, I got more and stripped it again that day. My hair went from black to light orange. Then I dyed it brown. That's when my hair started breaking. It was a mess! I researched and discovered aphogee treatment. I bought some and followed the directions and it really did stop the breakage and made my hair look decent again. My hair's healthier now, but I still use Aphogee reconstructor once in awhile. No other conditioner makes my hair look and feel so good.
THE BEST !!!!!!

First, my hair is shoulder length. Just recently, my hair started shedding. Huges amounts of hair. Just like many of you, I did some research and came across this product. I've seen this product in the beauty supply stores, but never used it until tonight. Below, I will give a very detailed description. Before I go on, GO GET THE APHOGEE TWO STEP PROGRAM. THE APHOGEE SHAMPOO, PROTEIN TREATMENT AND THE BALANCING MOISTURIZER. THEY ARE FORMULATED TO WORK TOGETHER. DO NOT SUBSTITUE!
9:00 pm - Shampooed my hair once with the Aphogee Shampoo, as prescribed on the instructions. Honestly, you only need to shampoo once. If you shampoo twice back to back, you risk stripping your hair of natural oils, causing it to become dry and break. I read this online.
9:05: Towel dried my hair gently and removed excess water until it was almost dry, but not quite.
9:10: Used a wide tooth comb, and gently parted my hair in four sections. Used a clip to section off the other sections and started applying the Aphogee Protein Treatment at the nape of my neck, starting with the ends first. Your ends are the most dry and damaged. Smoothed my ends first, the proceeded to saturate the entire section. It's important to make sure your hair is dry (towel dry) so there is less drippage. So far, no drip. Proceeded to do the next three sections. (Remember, I parted my hair in 4 sections). Do not forget to concentrate on your ends, especially if you are in dire need of having your ends clipped.
9:30: First, a plastic cap is not necessary. Grab a good magazine and sit under the dryer to dry. If your hair is lengthy, then take the rest of your hair and just lay it on top. Trust me, it will stay. Stay under the dryer for at LEAST 20. I stayed for 25. Result? My hair was hard. The back (nape of kneck) was a little damp, but that is ok.
10:00: (Had to put my dryer away, get my plastic cap, etc.) I know this sounds strange, but I wanted to rinse my hair out in the shower so that my strands are smoothed. I stood in the shower so that the water is hitting my head from behind, bending my neck back so as to rinse it out. Do not agitate with your hands at first. The directions specify this. Let the water glide down your back. Once you feel it loosening up, then gently separate to ensure that it is rinsed out thoroughly. Give it a good rinse.
The next step, once all of the treatment is rinsed, hair may feel a little rough, but don't get nervous. IMMEDIATELY after you have rinsed ALL of the treatment out, apply a huge amount of the Balancing Moisturizer. Remember, it is a TWO STEP program, no substitutes allowed. The Aphogee line is made to work together to see positive results. Once you have applied an substantial amount, cover with a plastic cap. The steam and moisture form the shower will do the rest.
After 7 to 10 minutes, rinse out. Although I am somewhat against using heat on my hair, I found it to be necessary to use it tonight since it is getting late.
THE RESULTS: My hair has NEVER felt this wonderful. It was EXTRA SHINY, so much body, and my ends didn't look like they needed to be clipped, although I haven't had my ends clipped in almost two years. (Try it. Hair grows from the roots, not the ends. Plus, when you go to a stylist, they take too much off.) My hair was EXTRA SOFT, SHINY and not ONE strand of breakage while blowdrying!!!!! Also, I permed my hair myself two weeks ago, and believe me, it looks like a fresh perm!!! As I am typing this message to you, I can't keep my hands out of my hair. UNBELIEVEABLE!!! If you follow these instructions, you should have no problem. I will be using the Protein Treatment and Balancing Moisturizer from now on. I'm sold. But also remember to moisturize your hair every single day. Black hair needs moisture EVERYDAY. The moisturization should not stop after this treatment, but everyday. The texture of my hair even looks phenomenal. I hope this information was helpful to you. GOOD LUCK! My only regret is that I wish I had taken a before and after picture for you to see, but try it for yourself. You will not be sorry.
It's okay

After a botched hair straightening treatment (thanks a lot, ms."experienced" stylist), my hair started to break off about a half inch from the roots. After reading the reviews of ApHOFEE treatment, I bought this, and the recommended shampoo and conditioner to use with it. The shampoo and conditioner dried my hair out and just plain out sucked, but the treatment itself was not bad. My hair didn't stop breaking off, but this treatment did improve the texture so it was less straw-like. I did feel the difference after six weeks, when my hair suddenly dried out. But by then, the hair had stopped breaking out, either due to this product, or the fact that all the damaged hair had fallen out. I do not need this product anymore, so i won't buying it, as it does not proclaim to moisturize or anything (although it did a little for me).
Careful : This is a professional Product

Ladies,
I have been using Aphogee treatments for more than 15 years.
I swear by it, and advise all my clients who are experiencing damaged hair to use this product. Previously, This product was only available to Licensed Cosmetologist, PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A PROFESSIONAL PRODUCT
Only in the pass ten years or so has it been available to the non-licensed. 1. It is very important how you apply the treatment, 2. Make sure you let it dry very hard without disturbing the hair( you may need to be under the dryer for an hour or more depending on length & thickness of hair) 3. You need to rinse very throughly, (this is a very inportant step)if you don't rinse out all the product you chance the risk of hair breakage. So rinse, rinse, rinse, rinse again, the longer you rinse the better your chances of rinsing out all product. Ladies to obtain the desired effects on your hair you must follow the directions or go visit your salon professional & have them apply treatment.
Remember, If you experience breakage or hair that feels hard after appling Aphogee, YOU DID NOT APPLY IT CORRECTLY. The key is did you let it get as hard as it needs to get? Did you rinse, rinse rinse? I normally have my clients under the dryer as long as it takes to get product in the hair dry throughly to the scalp. I normally rinse for 15 - 30 minutes to make sure I get the best results for my clients. If apply right you will have very bouncy hair(if relaxed) and NO BREAKAGE AT ALL
PS Please follow with moisturising treatment, this is a 2-step process
Aphogee best product for Breakage

Highly sceptical at first, but I am my own critic doesn’t matter if it had worked wonders on others or not I had to see how it would perform on me. Anyways after I had rinsed it out practically nada was coming well just enough to fill a two teaspoons but they were all small hairs. Note prior to this my hair was coming out in droves it was unbelievable, the most important thing about this treatment or any treatment is the after care; yes it is imperative to follow the instructions etc but especially for African Americans we must condition and moisturize our hair after the treatment.
After doing this treatment another must is to deep condition your hair at least once a week and moisturise moisturise its so important.
For those who were disappointed with this product note its not a miracle cure I think those people expected not even a strand of hair etc to come out which isn’t realistic at all!
