Through my teegnage years, I grew up through the evolution of Hair Rebonding - I'm sure many of you are farmiliar with and definitely at least done it once in your lifetime. I have had rebonded hair for at least a third of my life because it was just the best thing during my time to achieve silky straight hair. Well, I am not a fan of stark-straight hair but still i did it to get frizz-free hair.

Let me give you a quick guide to Hair Rebonding vs Brazilian Blowout vs Mucota DYNA.
Rebonding Pros:
1. This makes your hair appear sleek and shiny and less/no frizz.
2. Easy maintanence with straight hair.
3. No more hair ironing!
4. Lasts for 6-8 months.

Rebonding Cons:
1. During the process of getting this chemical treatment, do be aware of the tons of heat your hair has to take - In these instances, the more rebonding treatments that you go to, the greater the possibility that your hair would just turn out getting damaged.
2. Since this is a chemical treated process, hair shafts are weaker and breaks more easily. 
3. As a result of loading on high temperatures for the duration of process, your locks might end up falling off. Many females have reported hair loss as a huge complication of this process.
4. Strong chemical smell for first week. 
5. Need to refrain from washing hair for the first 2-3 days (same as rebonding).
6. SUPER FLAT HAIR - volumeless;  need I say more?

I haven't had rebonded hair for almost 6 years 'cuz I've moved on to permed style and followed by Bob & Pixie hair cut (as shown in my previous blog - http://vannytelly.blogspot.sg/2014/03/salon-vim-313-somerset.html). Recently I've grew out my Pixie hair and thus started looking around for anti-frizz solutions.

Last year I found this new treatment (yea I thought it was a non-chemical treatment); Brazilian Blowout (aka Keratin Treatment). It was something similar to rebonding, but is said that its chemical-free and boasts the effects of silk-straight hair without the harmful chemicals.

Brazilian Blowout Pros:
1. Smooths & straightens hair
2. Gives you versatality in hair styling as it is not structured into a pin-straight shape like rebonding.
3. Gentler on the hair.
4. Managaeble hair.

Brazilian Blowout Cons:
1. Costly (usually costs about $250-500 in Singapore, depends on hair length & salon)
2. As I mentioned above, I thought it was chemical free because most salons advertise as "Formaldehyde Free", but I was later told that this is exactly what is in the cream that makes the hair straight - so it makes a harmful process to hair all over again and may cause allergy reactions to sensity skin.
3. One of the steps in the process requires high heat hair-blowing of your hair thats coated in a layer of cream (chemical), harmful to hair and "smoke" from the high-heat blowing causes eye irritation.
4. Strong chemical smell for first week. 
5. Need to refrain from washing hair for the first 2-3 days (same as rebonding).
6. Special sulphate free shampoo & conditioner have to be used after treatments to make it last longer
7. Lasts 2-3 months only.

I did Brazilian Blowout 3 times since last year and each time it only lasts me for 1-2 months even though I use the recommended shampoo & condition as a maintanence step post-treatment. The effect was quite good I would say, very smooth and straight but then I didn't like the fact that it doesn't last - this means more trips to the salon and more $$$!! Also, the chemical smoke getting into my eyes during treatment was a dread, I had to close my eyes through that particular step 'cuz they hurt like mad I'll start tearing (not kidding).

So this time when my hair was due for treatment, I went to do some research for new anti-frizz remedies and stumbled upon Headlines Hair Dressing's Mucota DYNA Hair Treatment. After looking through the "Before & After" pictures posted by some of their customers, I decided to give it a try.

A quick introduction to Mucota DYNA Treatment:
DYNA is an Argan Oil treatment that provides smooth and silky hair up to 3-4 months.




Benefits Of ARGAN OIL:
- Rich in vitamin E which restores life to limp hair 
- Contains unsaturated fatty acids like Omega 3 and 6 that provides nutrition to the hair 
- Contains linoleic acid and oleic which helps to hydrate and MOISTURIZE hair 
- Unlike other OILS, argan is non-greasy and non-oily 
- Keeps colored hair more lasting and prevents dryness 
- Easily absorbed by the hair and restores hair’s lost MOISTURE 
- Shields hair from harmful UV rays and protects hair from enviromental pollution 
- Enhances the elasticity of the hair 
- Improves strength of hair and HEALS split ends of hair




Hokay, enough said. First have a look at my very very untidy and discoloured hair, remember how it looks.... I'll assure you will agree with the drastic great results later at the end. *excited* Here's how its done ;)

Pardon My Unruly Hair.

Step 1: After hair wash, application of DYNA 1 (CAT) cream.
DYNA CAT targets curly/coloured hair to give a soft & natural finish.

Step 2: Rinse & Blow Dry

Step 3: Iron away the Frizzzzz

Super Straight Ironed Hair.
And Step 4 comes after this: to apply DYNA 2 (After Cream)

Here you can see the DYNA CAT & DYNA After Cream


Got a trim & a new set of bangs - almost done.


Let's take a look again at the "Before" picture:

Ta-Dah~~~ AFTER!
How? How? You like it? I definitely did! And still do! Im writing this review after exactly a week, hair feels soft and natural. Definitely better than Keratin treatment and best part, no need for additional purchase of shampoo & conditioner! Of course I will continue to observe how long it lasts for me - I say this because everyone's hair condition is not the same so it will surely last different period of time for everyone.


Here's a quick overview of DYNA vs Keratin Treatment
