The issue of permanent damage to the keratin arises when nails are exposed to water for long periods and frequently. <br /><br />This is not the temporary softening cycle that you are talking about. The permanent damage arises from repeating that softening cycle and also from prolonged water exposure. <br /><br />As per my answer to Dea, I think you should develop your own hair care method because your hair is individual.Jchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983132094574128087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356365023823603303.post-88281446987274073512010-07-17T12:51:30.035+01:002010-07-17T12:51:30.035+01:00When I immerse my nails in water for a prolonged p...When I immerse my nails in water for a prolonged period I have also noted the softening effect that this can have on the nails. However I have found upon drying, my nails feel like they have returned to their former strength -- i.e. the softening/weakening effect is only temporary as you stated. I have done this repeatedly and do not believe that I suffer from weak nails.<br /><br />So why is it that you would apply the same theory to hair with the exception that when it comes to hair the weakening effect would be permanent? And does softer hair really mean weaker hair?<br />Here is another link of a natural wih beautiful healthy long hair who says she deep conditions overnight regularly. I think her name is Chima if the fotki link does not work.http://members.fotki.com/lifesacatwalk<br /><br />Anyway keep up the good work with this blog even though I may not understand this theory you give useful information, clarify myths and produce an environment conducive to learning and healthy debate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356365023823603303.post-25951225413590349512010-07-17T11:09:11.942+01:002010-07-17T11:09:11.942+01:00Dea- I do not think that Terri's method of usi...Dea- I do not think that Terri's method of using hair conditioner is the same as deep conditioning. The conditioner is expected to dry on the hair and is therefore used as a styling product. I am speaking in reference to people who will actually apply the conditioner and keep it moist by wrapping a plastic cap and sleeping in it overnight then wash it later the next day. <br /><br />Also just because Terri has long hair does not mean that others using the method will equally gain long hair. I keep emphasizing that everyone has to find a method that works for their hair. For some Terri's method will be great for others it won't. <br /><br />I personally would discourage overnight deep conditioning but I am certain some people will feel that they have had succes with it. So remember the purpose of the site is to encourage you as an individual to make your own decisions, not to promote one form of hair care. <br /><br />Kadiane - Ktani did provide a full reference but I chose to highlight the texascollaborative site. You can simply search for hair and hydrogen and you will get to the result page. I think texascollaborative is a good basic site and is fairly informative as a general source. <br /><br />My personal preference as I have previously written is for peer reviewed journals. I do however think that sites like the loreal hair science site and texascollaborative site are informative.Jchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983132094574128087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356365023823603303.post-3053988840833765532010-07-17T07:58:23.290+01:002010-07-17T07:58:23.290+01:00@Ktani

Terri, who is the owner of the site and has even written a book about the method, has grown her hair to tailbone length using it and believes it works to protect and strengthen the hair rather than weakening it.Deanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356365023823603303.post-27885188239548162142010-07-16T14:32:16.181+01:002010-07-16T14:32:16.181+01:00I am loving this series.I am loving this series.LaNeshehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04219535634041170532noreply@blogger.com
