amabO, your words would have hit deaf ears.

Just as with the rest of the CCs, 613 is trial and error. My hair loves protein (amino acids are protein building blocks), so I can use it once or twice a week. I don't use it for moisture.

I've been using it regularly for about 6 months. It has strengthened my hair.

Get your flu shot...because I didn't.

It never ceases to surprise my to hear how the people have such different responses to how CCs work on their hair.

I have thin/fine hair. LAV CC is drying for my hair, but some other people who have thin/fine hair seem to find it moisturizing. {#emotions_dlg.confused1} The CA is great for my hair, but other people find it drying. SAM weighs my hair down, but yet it works really well for some people who have my hair type. {#emotions_dlg.huh}

lol, it's the Wen Learning Curve!!!

Bebe,

I think People have different experiences because it acts differently but

also because I think people have different expectations and perceptions

of what dry is and what oily is. I like my hair best after one or two days after washing

and my hair looks more moisturized because of the natural oils, some may feel

it's oily. Who knows...many variables.

HappyDaze,

She was pretty adamant about it being moisturizing not drying.

I didn't bring up the people who said the opposite, I probably

should have.

Well, I am not trying to be adversarial but it would have been interesting to hear their response to you had you mentioned that there are those of us that have experienced drying with 613. Even those that use it and like it often say they can't use it very often or need to mix it with something more moisturizing for best results or their hair will feel more dry.

I just really do not think it is right to make such a bold, blanket statement or insist that it will not be drying. Perhaps that CS person was newer because those that I spoke with in the past have never made such adamant claims.
