Japanese Hair Rebonding and Straightening Treatment - Permanent Crystallizing Straightener (1EX) with Neutralizing Cream (2) for Very Resistant Hair, Includes Hair Brush

I bought this in order to do a Japanese straightening treatment at home and it worked out perfectly! My hair type is 3c-4a and I have short hair. I ended up using a little over half of each step. I did my own research and left each step of the treatment for about 25 minutes. I've read a few comments stating that this product didn't work for them and I would like to suggest that before you do a treatment like this to do your own research. If this treatment isn't done to a T, then it's not going to give the desired results. That includes the strength you choose, the products you use during (shampoos, hair masks, etc) and even how long the product is left in for. I've uploaded a full video on youtube about the process and what steps I took that worked for me (my youtube is 悦子Etsuko so go check it out!). All of that aside, it turned out amazing and my hair is pin straight. It's been 2 days since I've done this treatment and I'm super happy with the results. My hair has not gotten poofy, plus it looks and feels super healthy!

You will never go wrong japanese product. It make my hair smooth and shiny.

Me quemó el cabello.

It really works for my hair

Will apply the product and post pictures after first application, after blow dry, after straightening, after cream and after air drying (I don’t want straight hair just want to tame my frizzy hair a bit!). Update : As you can see I did section my hair during the first application, make sure every strand is saturated, left it on for about 20 minutes in the back 10 in the front then rinsed it off with cold water no shampoo. Once rinsed the hair did seem straight but that’s also how my hair usually looks when it’s wet so I didn’t notice much of a difference. When I blowdried it however (revlon brush, no heat protectant, no products at all) I did notice my hair getting lighter and not in a good way it was very brittle and rough which I expected since I am putting chemicals in my hair but not to this extent. I also noticed it stripped a good bit of my black dye so keep that in mind if you have coloured hair. ALSO while drying one half of my hair the other half got more and more frizzy as it air dried (more frizzy than it usually is even). I then straightened it before applying the second treatment (didn’t section this time but did focus more on the part that I felt needed more help) and rinsed once again and this time I did apply leave in conditioner and some hair oil before wrapping it to sleep. I will definitely do a deep conditioning hair mask next time I shampoo my hair (2-3 days) and maybe even an oil bath because it needs it badly. Also i did do this with dirty hair (waited a week for my hair to be properly oily just in case).

Didn’t leave my hair dry or brittle. My final result is more straight than when I used to get traditional relaxers.

Works well! I have think curly hair so I had to use the entire container of the straighter and i left it on for about 25-30 minutes. The instructions say to wash your hair after the entire treatment after 48 hours but i did 41 because i couldn’t wait. Pictures are in order of my hair before, waiting, and after washing (I have some serious split/dead-ends) so i’m going to get my haircut! But my hair is very silky and smooth!

Worked well and straightened my hair but the instructions weren't in english. I could only use it twice as my hair is really thick, but it worked. I feel like they should have included how many times it can be used or the amount of gel is in the bags but other than that, everything was good! It's also quite time consuming and you need a hair straightener aswell so if you're considering buying but don't have one then well there's that
