I went back and read some older threads on dry ends...I realized I am using all 613 styling products, (which I love) but since it's super dry here and the inside heat is flaming, I am going to need tons of moisture this winter...SO even tho I have super baby fine hair, I pullled out the FIG (core) yep it is fixing the ends just fine...

So switching all my lineup to FIG for the winter and see if that continue's to help...(so glad I had gotten the TSV back when it had the 32oz and styling products...

@quadmimi, while it's not as moisturizing as FIG, I have found the rice-based, bamboo water infused Mandarin Italian Fig (MIF) to offer unexpected moisture. 

I can't use the FIG because it weighs my hair down. MIF was really surprising because it provides more moisture than any of the rest of the CCs... and it doesn't weigh down mu hair.

I love MIF also, but my hair has been crazy for a few days, so thinking maybe i was doing too much 613? The core Fig is snapping it back, maybe i will alternate durung dry winter months... Thx to Wen we can create our own mix up's when needed..

@quadmimi, since the 613 CC gives the most concentrated amino acid infusion, it could be that you need to pull back a bit on the 613 CC. 

I think that MIF has about the same amount of amino acid complex as the Seasonals (and less than 613). -- Also the bamboo water in MIF that helps strengthen my hair seems to work differently than the 613 CC... though it's hard to explain exactly how. 

So it might be worth swapping out the 613 CC for MIF. and giving it a test run

Kj, thanks for the 613 reminder!  I've been on a TT kick and ignorning my other staples.  My ends aren't showing it yet, but they are thirst for 613.

I cleanse every other day. I use 4 pumps from a 32 oz bottle of 6/13 as part of my second cleanse, every time. My baby fine, thin, limp hair has become full, wavy, and  thicker, thanks to WEN.  I feel 6/13 makes my hair "plumper".

I have been using TT (for 2 yrs) as my first cleanse, it's the only core CC I have, but I feel I may becoming sensitive to the mint (I'm getting dermititus on my scalp, aka flakes, all of the sudden, never had this problem before). So I'm now using something from the restorative line as a first cleanse, then 4 pumps of 6/13 mixed with 7 pumps from a 32 oz seasonal. Again, I feel adding 6/13 into my second cleanse makes my hair fuller and "plumper".

I didn't find cleansing solely with 6/13 was beneficial to my hair. Nor using 6/13 solely as a second cleanse. I do notice my hair is less plump if I don't use it 

I always cleanse my face with 6/13 in the shower. Sometimes I'll cleanse my face with 6/13 before bed. When I do, I feel 6/13 helps to "plump" some of the wrinkles around my eyes. I throughly enjoy using 6/13 CC. 

Recently, I started using 6/13 RTM, it came with a kit. I have A LOT of various RTM. I have to say, 6/13 RTM is my favorite RTM!  My hair is more hydrated and curlier or waiver when I use the 6/13 RTM. I also use it on my face and body. I really like the results. 

I cant be without 6/13 NBT. Its AMAZING! Chaz's clinical are true! My skin is soft, hydrated, velvety smooth. I use it on my face several times a day and on my body post shower. I need to buy this by the case, it's the BEST body lotion I've ever used!

It has been quite a while since I mixed CCs but today I decided to mix some 613 with SMC and surprisingly my hair liked it. I've been using 613 on its own lately and in that case I can only use it maybe once a month since it's way too much protein. Maybe I'll try mixing it with another CC and hopefully my hair won't freak out!

@HSB1204, I think that's an excellent idea.

I get the sense that there are more Wenners who can easily use either the soy-based Seasonals or the rice-based Restoratives (Bamboo Green Tea, Mandarin Italian Fig and the new Fragrance Free CC). -- All of these CCs have the 11 amino acid complex in them, but the amino acid complex isn't as concentrated as in the 613 CC. 

Also, Chaz mentioned that most of the models use 613. He's mentioned that most of them blend 613 CC with another CC... usually in a 50/50 split. -- Chaz also has mentioned that he started doing the same thing after he saw how good their hair looked after including 613 CC in the mix.

@bebe777 I guess I should listen to Chaz more. 613 is definitely way too much protein on its own most of the time for me so I think adding a few pumps of 613 to another CC will probably work better. Otherwise it'll take me quite a while to use up even the 16 oz. bottle.

I wish 613 came in a no frill version. Just a moisturizing CC with the amazing 613 fragrance.
