Dear Nexxus;
I love Nexxus products. Several
years ago I picked up a Nexxus brochure
that was basically like a hair prescription, a
Nexxus formula for African-american hair. It told the right combinations
to use for Black hair. Therefore, I was very dissapointed not to see any
mention of specifically African-american hair on your website. I still
love Nexxus products and the environmentally-sensitive
nature of the company. Do not ignore your Black consumers, we have billions
of dollars in purchasing power. Thank you for your time.

"At
Paul Labreque's N.Y.C. salon, thermal reconditioning starts
at $750 (888-757-2566) and lasts six to 10 months. Tyra
Banks (left) opts for a gentle relaxer at the Lisa Mitchell
Salon ($150; 212-982-0085) which lasts three to six months." |

Six
months!!! I guess it depends on how un-straight your hair is
to begin with?

"Morning
brushing is best with a natural hair bristle brush which
is similar to your hair structure and less likely to produce
tangles on long hair. The brush should have a wooden base
that reduces static electricity...Never use a metal or rubber
comb." |
