Hair Genetics Advanced Keratin Hair Building Fibres (Dark Blonde)

It says keratin fibers in the title, but there is no keratin in the ingredients.

Ok

I have androgenic alopecia so I am conscious of gaps in my hair. I have been using coloured dry shampoo but wanted to try fibres. So far they have been OK. I'm just never sure how much to use.

Le fibre risultano essere buone, fine, tonalità giusta, la confezione è da 22 gr quindi rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo. È la prima volta che utilizzo questa marca e devo dire che sono soddisfatta perché fa il suo dovere, certo non è proprio al livello di altre ditte più blasonate ma per quel che mi serve va benissimo così.

I have been using Mane thickening spray for some time (expensive!) and decided to try the "shake on" fibres instead. Pleasantly surprised at the results - more natural looking and overall less mess since you control the application more directly. Just some advice for anyone who, like me, was apprehensive about using fibres.1) Apply fibres to CLEAN, freshly shampooed and DRY hair without any product such as gel or wax. The fibres attach to the hair better this way. You can style your hair once the fibres are applied as long as you do so gently.2) The colour you use is a matter of experimentation. I used a mid brown Mane spray, so I just went for medium brown fibres. They are slightly darker (also probably to do with the brand being different), so I will probably try the next lighter shade. However, I kind of like darker hair and have no issue with people assuming I've dyed it!3) Order a good spray applicator. When I say "spray" I mean you're still using the fibres, but the applicator uses a thin nozzle to pump and target the fibres in a more precise way. Good for hairlines. I use the Fab Hair Fibre Applicator.4) Don't just pour on the fibres and use a fixing spray. Pat them down and work them into the hair a little, maybe comb/brush lightly to distribute the fibres more evenly. People complaining about "clumps" or an unnatural look are probably neglecting this step. Have patience!5) For crown thinning, place the shaker close to the scalp and use a circular motion occasionally tapping. In fact the circular motion is generally good for optimum distribution. Use a hand mirror to ensure you have an even spread. This takes some practice but you'll get it!6) If you're doing the hairline you will inevitably get some of the fibres on your forehead. I use a razor to carefully scrape down from the hairline and then brush off the excess with one of those clipper cleaners. You can also use wet wipes.7) Don't wash your hair every day. There's really no need and you will save money by only having to apply fibres every other day. Using a good fixing spray will keep your hair protected and looking clean for a couple of days and the fibres won't go anywhere until you wash.8) Yes, it can be messy. But the more it becomes your routine, the better at controlling the mess you'll become. Using an applicator pump helps to control it. If you live with other people, do them a favour and wipe down after use! Just common sense really.Even though the above steps seem time consuming, once you have got the hang of it, you should have everything done within 5-10 minutes or so. I think these fibres would have far more 4-5 star reviews if people followed the above steps.

No mess. Smells good. No itching. Stays on for a Long duration ( also use in conjunction with a hair fibre spray.) definitely great value for money. Worth getting it.
