I’m a stay at home mother. I started using Philip B Anti-Flake shampoo a year ago & my life has been happier. There has been such a dramatic change in my hair that it has made me happier, more youthful, and has made me feel better about myself.
Being a passionate blogger, I will make it a point to spread positive word about your Anti-Flake shampoo so that I can repay your company for making me feel & look 10 years younger with more flake-free & moisturized hair.
Seeing such a dramatic improvement in my hair, I have been paying more attention to taking care of myself as a whole. In a way, Philip B. Hair Care has helped me make my health top priority in life.
I hope many more Americans utilize Philip B hair care in their homes because I truly believe it is a miracle in itself!
Thanks so much for your letter, which cheered our whole team immensely. I’m incredibly happy to hear that the Anti-Flake helped you so much, and hope that you continue to enjoy the line!
I am contacting you in the hope that you can give me some product advice. I have a very itchy, greasy scalp although it is not flaking. My hair is also quite fine and coloured with a slight wave, and I straighten it every day. I have tried many products to try and alleviate the itchy scalp but have not yet found one that works. A colleague suggested your range but I’m not sure which products to try.
This is such a common problem, and causes so much frustration and misery. I’m going to give you the same answer as the gentleman who wrote in just before you did: It’s the system I designed for a dear friend with a troubled scalp like yours, and it has helped him and thousands of people around the globe. (A) Start with the Rejuvenating Oil: Run it though your hair and scalp and heat it with a blowdryer to ease your scalp dryness and deep condition your fine hair. (The oil molecules are so small that they sink inside each strand and plump it up, rather than simply coating the outside and weighing it down.) (B) Wash your hair with my Peppermint and Avocado Volumizing & Clarifying Shampoo. Leave the lather on your hair for two minutes so that the therapeutic levels of peppermint oil can thoroughly clean and refresh your scalp. (C) Shampoo again with the Anti-Flake Relief Shampoo. Leave it on your hair for 2 minutes so that the coal tar and scalp-healing botanical ingredients have time to do their work. You’ll get instant, life-changing relief.
Are all Philips B’s products appropriate for men or not?
Almost all of the product descriptions mention the process of blow-drying in them. Is it necessary that we always blow-dry? Won’t using that much heat damage hair?
I have a lot of dandruff, plus if I don’t shampoo for 2 or 3 days my hair becomes greasy. What do you recommend?
What products should I use to increase my hair’s volume and thickness and thicker and fill in weak spots?
I know these are a lot of queries but I am just confused…..
Thanks for all your questions!
Yes, all of my products work equally well on men and women.
No, you don’t need to blow-dry your hair to make the products work. (I never blow-dry my hair, for instance.) And yes, too much heat-styling can damage hair. If you don’t feel the need to blow-dry, don’t bother.
Here’s my surefire dandruff-obliterating method, which has drawn letters from grateful customers all over the world: (A) Start with the Rejuvenating Oil: Run it though your hair and scalp and heat it with a blowdryer to help loosen dead cells and flakes. (In this case, heat is a good thing.) (B) Wash your hair with my Peppermint and Avocado Volumizing & Clarifying Shampoo. Leave the lather on your hair for two minutes so the therapeutic levels of peppermint oil can thoroughly clean and refresh your scalp. (C) Shampoo again with the Anti-Flake Relief Shampoo. Leave it on your hair for 2 minutes so that the coal tar and scalp-healing botanical ingredients have time to do their work. You’ll get instant, dramatic relief.
To increase your hair’s volume and thickness, continue using the Peppermint & Avocado Shampoo for everyday, and the Rejuvenating Oil once a week. That should do the trick, and add shine to boot.
I would like to order some products but I do not know which ones to try. I have long dyed hair (blonde) and the ends of my hair are spliced. Overall, my hair is dry.
I’m an African-American woman with chemically-treated hair. My hair feels dry all the time, and my scalp itches in the center. I’m constantly rubbing it to stop the itching, and as a result, I have a lot of breakage and my hair is falling out. What type of regiment do you recommend?
You can’t believe how often I see this situation – I’m so sorry to hear of your struggles. The good news is that I have the perfect remedy. It involves three steps:
Coat your hair with my Rejuvenating Oil and work it into your scalp to loosen any dead cells and flaky patches. Let it sit for 20 minutes or so.
Put a dollop of the Peppermint & Avocado Clarifying & Volumizing Shampoo on your hair, work it into a lather and let IT sit for 2-3 minutes. You’ll feel your scalp tingling as the therapeutic levels of peppermint oil in the formula do their healing work. Rinse.
Immediately apply the Anti-Flake Relief Shampoo, work it into a lather, and let IT sit for another 2-3 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
If you like, you run some conditioner through the ends of your hair, or apply a leave-in conditioner – avoiding your scalp. Repeat the 3 steps as needed. You should see a huge improvement in your scalp and your hair within a week.
I have fine, colored hair and an oily scalp. My hair appears very dry and damaged at the bottom, and the texture is both frizzy and lifeless. When I sleep, it gets all roughed up by the pillowcase, so by morning I look like I have the hair of a clown! I’m interested in the Russian Imperial shampoo and Katira Masque. Would any of you other daily shampoos and conditioners work for me? Are the White Truffle shampoo and conditioner too moisture-rich for fine hair? I’ve just tried a small sample of the African Shea Butter Shampoo. My hair looks less frizzy, but I’m not sure if this is what I should order first.
I recently purchased the Russian Amber Imperial Shampoo, but I’m not getting any lather with the product. Is that normal? When I watched the video the product looks like it lathers. Am I doing something wrong?
It sounds like you have too much product build-up on your hair, but that’s an easy thing to fix. Just start with the Peppermint & Avocado Volumizing & Clarifying Shampoo (you may need to use it twice) to clarify the hair-shaft and leave your scalp tingly clean and cool. Then go in with the Russian Amber – it will restore just the right dose of moisture and amino acids to your hair, and you’ll definitely get a rich lather. I love using those two products back-to-back.
I recently bought your Katira Masque, which I love. I have somewhat fine, highlighted blond hair that became damaged and is in recovery. Until recently, I shampooed it everyday because I have oily skin. But now I’ve cut back washing it 4-5 a week and use a dry shampoo on the off-days. What would you recommend for continued hair healing and everyday use, including styling products?
I’m so happy to hear that you’re enjoying the Katira Masque. I recommend that you alternate Katira treatments with Rejuvenating Oil treatments; they have a wonderful synergy that will transform fine, chemically-damaged hair. Simply coat your hair with oil, focusing on the mid-shaft to the ends and on any dry areas. From there, heat it with a blowdryer to help the oil sink inside your hair and let it sit for 30-40 minutes. Then wash it out with the Peppermint & Avocado Volumizing & Clarifying Shampoo. That should give you plenty of oomph. As a finishing touch, rub a touch of Lovin’ Leave-in Conditioner between your fingers and use it to smooth down flyaways and hide (and heal) dry ends. If you want more of a beachy, sexy, bed-heady effect, go with the Maui Wowie Beach Mist: Use it on damp or dry hair (experiment to see which works better for you) and feel free to scrunch away.
I dye my hair and use flat irons. As a result, I’ve noticed that my hair’s become extremely brittle and over-processed. I’m worried that it might be thinning, too.
You’re taking a lot out of your hair; you need to give it something back. In this case, the name of the game is moisture: frequent Rejuvenating Oil and/or 4-Step Treatments; a healing shampoo like White Truffle or Russian Amber; and either a delicate conditioner like the Lightweight Deep Conditioning Crème or something richer, like White Truffle Nourishing & Conditioning Crème. And, at the risk of repeating myself: If you’re experiencing sudden or dramatic hair loss, see a doctor to rule out an underlying hormonal imbalance or medical issue. Good luck!
