Questions and answers for people brand-new to our products, people wondering if/when to move up to more fun stuff, like our luxurious deep-treatments and exotic conditioners sets, or even different configurations of full or locally-driven Magicpack Membership.
Of course, yes. And for the 'complicated stuff' it just depends on how involved someones needs are or someone wants to get. She can deal with folks refreshingly easily on all levels, and at the same time is very capable of some pretty high-end results.
At you level at your speed, even basic care is going to thrill you,and you'll be glad you asked, and gladder that you came in for a trim, some of our 'basic' shampoo and conditioner(and Flexipick). You can stay at that level if you choose, no problem at all.
You'll still find Longhairs brand of perfection distinctively present even for your simple needs:-)
Oh and complicated? Somebody has to do it, and there's nobody better than LML to do it ....and it's not really that complicated, it just so happens Magicpacking or 'kitting' may not be for you:-)
Everything new needs practise, some people need help.It is just typing... after all...and not everyone finds it easy to understand, some people also interpret things differently.We understand and have staff trained to help with those specific issues.
With your feedback we can improve our directions for others.
How about you send us a detailed step by step of what you did and we'll be more than happy to tell you what you did wrong and thus improve our directions and your understanding of them.
Just ask for 'troubleshooting' please.
Perhaps this may work with chemical products and product that need such help. We don't. By following our diresctions for our products with our products... you will get very smooth hair that without a forced hand is staying smooth.
This might also work where the products(even some natural) chemicals regardless of temperature spread what good oils(processed or emulsified) might happen to be in their stuff. I guess it also depends on the nature theory (if there is even one) and strength of what they might be using. It (luke warm water and rinsed with cold) certainly isn't a 'long hair do or die rule' of any sort and we don't keep this in mind prior to making any product for long hair just to make it in the way certain people want to use one out there. There is no general rule that we look for to follow when we manufacture except success.
I do know you cannot move butter or good oils around properly like you think you are doing with lukewarm or cool water unless where is a high detergent value to do the job. The oils in our products and the nature of it are not such chemical, but designed to melt in at higher than body temperature (many reasons for this) without the use of the chemicals or pre-processings that an average consumer may not understand. Our products sufficiently 'open to accept' when they are supposed to, 'penetrate and close' on their own when they are supposed to, it's programmed in...unlike 'outside' products that coat or are 'simple-natured in design.
The temperature controls that you are choosing because of a tip here an there that are not speaking of Longhairs products at all, are only tips for common products that produce these needs that they arose from. Doing this with the temperature with our products is definitely going to meddle with the way our products were designed to work, which they do completely on their own ...unique in the way and depth that they penetrate. In other words what you need to do for other products out there our products do 'for you' and 'with and on it's own accord if you provide the environment it needs to naturally do so and not interfere in such a way.
The need to apply outside information on our perfectly well instructed product is indeed overkill. There is no need here for outside tips that are contrary to manufacturers directions. There is no need to make a product that feeds into these theories as we are beyond making a generic product work as that is backwards thinking.
Doing 'other directions' is like not following direction on a cake mix, because you deemed them not normal and then complain because it came out less than right.. ..after you changed the clear instructions. Besides the fact that scalp's, natural oil production system has properties that need to be activated, circulation ceated or allowed so your body can properly cleanse (plugged up scalps solidified oil in there that goes rancid, is often why some people's long hair up close smells like an old boot and their hairlines face and backs are pimply.)
Any good oil including your scalp's own oil(if it is clean and not rancid)needs to flow and not be solidified into waxy plugs.(honest...we have no conspiracy with your hot water provider) Just with most of our stuff works best with our instructions because the instructions are made for the product, not because we never checked around or forgot to ask what hoops people need to go through to make some things do their job.
Our clients hair is long, healthy growing .... problem and odor-free....and our client love to learn. Why mess with success!
When a mirror squeaks it is not because it dry it is because it is smooth and glassy, and not rough.
Have you read what each lathering
does on our website?.Did you do the special app on the ends thing till creamy with the shampoo?
Have you used the product for longer than 1 or 2 times before deciding to change how to do it. Our recommended instructions that have worked to achieve success over quarter of a century focusing on longhair. User should keep in mind that it always takes time to turn over the hair into a new product.
Your old product no matter how 'natural' was a completely different composition that ours. Practise also makes perfect. If you had problems with limp hair before, tangles before, no shine and texture problems before we recommend you learn to give things more of a chance past first impression. Seems is the correct word, because it is not. In fact it is preparing your hair to accept the conditioner properly on a correctly prepared slate. If you choose to change the number of latherings to what you see as 'normal' or 'reasonable' you will not get as good results and you'll be using more conditioner than shampoo in total to compensate, same as if you were to do procedure
incorrectly or halfway.
We provide by obligation, what tutorial or information is tested by time and us, the manufacturer because it works best. If we provide 'normal instructions that would mean we'd have to make a mediocre product that matches them. Just so we don't rock the proverbial boat. It is about doing what you need to do to get superbly unusual results. well with most of us anyway.
Incidentally, the same rules as with s*x, you can do it quickly and many times as long as it is done correctly, and feels good
Usually our reputation speaks for itself, in other cases our headspace, honest nature and 30 years experience instill a little confidence, not to mention our testimonials are many. WE are glad this has instilled such faith from you.
Do you know what should be in our products and how much of each and how they should be combined? Likely not, allergies, ask us if needed.
Our business has been built in trust and faith and not on sporting a menu of delicious ingredients (on an otherwise cheap base) that are to tantalize and mislead you into thinking that you 'know' as a consumer what should be used to make a healthy product. This would make sense if you are making a salad because you know your body on that level, but a professional tool of specific engineering other than to simply 'clean' is a different story it is our job. Our product abides by the NO list on our website,do other 'natural product do anything more than tantalize taste buds, or can they promise not to mix those fragrant morsels with a few toxic things that you have no idea what they are... but sound ok on the laymans level. We even do prescrition mixes for naturopaths and their homeopathic patients.
Q:I have been using natural products in my hair for years since I started growing my hair, what's the difference? Everything natural is all the same purpose to clean the hairs...isn't natural natural and doesn't natural generic include long hair?
A: If generic is your bag it's your bag.If you believe 'natural is a description that tell you anything, Eg: natural beef, natural bread, made with natural flour, natural rosemary (is there non-natural rosemary?)
You get the picture.You're mistaking a natural product for general use, as for what's making the general rule. You might be confusing that type of product with products made for long hair especially, that IS naturally pathed for very specific results. Our product and directions are specifically designed to deal with and prevent long hair issues. Don't confuse 'natural' (sales pitch word) with 'good for your needs'. As a standard 'natural' is what we feel is the way everything should just 'be'. Without considering 'natural' as a bonus. Ask yourself does everything natural in the world belong in one classification.... and belong on your hair, good for long hair? 'Natural' is not the only credential necessary to make it 'for' long hair..Our NO list
EVERYBODY at all lengths should be using 'natural' stuff and there shouldn't 'be' anything else and then for long hair there is us where we are natural of course... but we specialize at Longhairs. Special product special purpose, special instructions.
Our two main websites serve two separate sides of our online business. www.hairgasm.com is our e-commerce website, allowing you to purchase our products. www.longhairs.com is our information and communication website, providing you with extended information / answers about our products, their usage and care, and acting as a communication tool between you and LML.
So, why two different logins?
For security and administration purposes, it is more sensible to separate the logins for the two sites. When you become a MagicPack Member and are given a login for www.longhairs.com, we will try to match your username to the one you use on www.hairgasm.com (if applicable). For security purposes, we do not have the ability to view your existing password, so we cannot give you the same password on both sites.
If you are a MagicPack Member and would like to have the same username and password for both sites, when you login to www.longhairs.com with the username and password provided, simply visit the "My Account" page, and change your password to match the one you have with www.hairgasm.com.

Right before it dries twist hair in one twist or two piggies and hang it down your back, hang a zip-up fleece hoodie and by the time you get to work, the kick will be out your of the curl.
Ask me to show you in person how the African Queens solve questions like this, but more elegantly with a Poshmina:-) 15 to an hour and length is regained!!
Tip #2, smoothcomb before towelling up and getting out of the shower often make a difference in curl, as does doing rosette(Star Wars star) twists on either side of the head or more when almost dry our hair with our products responds quickly and well to any 'forming' activities' that you reason to do..
No, you don't need to rinse out pretreat before #18-ing, it is usually dried by morning, and isn't gooped in at the scalp at all, the coast should be clear for a clean application, and any sweat is OK to scritch over:-)
Pulled smoothly across the back of the head from the side where your swirly crown is residing, over to the opposite side.
Try switching sides periodically for a few nights a month over to the same side as your swirly crown to periodically rest the roots.
The Pocahontas-style ponytail should reside and terry-tied every few inches starting right behind the ear lobe, so sleeping on the side puts the hairtie flush in the nook below the jaw-joint.
This is done after brushing then pretreating.
When you worked out before, did you feel the need to wash
your hair? if so... do the whole kit-n-kaboodle with the #18 (it's fine used on sweaty scalp) or don't #18 and wash
and simply #26 Chillout to post-workout detox and wait to wash
in the morning and put the hair up when you shower after workouts.
The #18 and my shampoos were made for each-other so wash
as often as you want, provided you keep the routines together. and a day is a day no matter how many times you washed
, it's still one rotation:-)

Our Queen of the haircare set with support. Everything by Longhairs® and Hairgasm® you could ever dream of for feeding and growing and care of long or any hair.
This person's idea was to make a payment to start it this month and completely pay off the cost next month. Then once payed in full, the Magicpack could be sent to her.
That would work just fine
.
In her account, she'd see it taken off her order's total:-) Kinda like saving it up.
OK, The way to officially go about this is for her to go ahead and order the MP she needs, and in additional notes area, she'd request that a certain $ amount be deducted off her creditcard and when she wants to make more payment(s) she would let us know and at such points, we'll keep taking it off her total.
We can even wait with weighing it in to set the shipping up, until her last payment in case she wants to add things to her Magicpack along the way:-) (we can add from the inside of the account and she could see in her invoice on Hairgasm.com wen she logs in and goes there) .
If she decides to get her brakes fixed in the middle of paying it off the paid balance is not refundable but she can stop the MP and re-spend it here at this webside for another kind of order.. but let's try not to change our mind too many times... but if she 'has to' she can use the credit here, that's no problem.

It's for those who want it all...THE set of EVERYTHING your hair needs AND what Louise Marie uses with her clients to provide a well-rounded diet for hair skin and scalp and the future of these in promotion and support of longer better hair. Not excessive or frivolous, more like a 'fridge full of food to cook with' as opposed to a typical hand-to-fist approach of one piece at a time...called a 'supply to prescribe from' for those who have better things to do than constantly shop for needs a piece at a time...we get stuff done, re-stocking as needed, we are planning ahead. What a relief!!
Shampoo rotations Louise Marie Longhairs puts together for you, can look like this: (3 (days) sessions and rotate/switch to the next shampoo on their list, everyone's rotations is unique)
#2, #5, #26, #8, #2, #1, #6, #24, #2...ETC for months on end:-)....
Naturally and wonderful!! Naturally more than half of our clientele/users ARE men. (not counting your hubbys) Seems both long and shorthaired men know what they like... and get it... unlike women who are used to being marketed to constantly. No artificial perfumes, our products smell like what they are made of, and thus some pets love to eat our stuff, (with no adverse effects!!)
Why not try a Add a non-member SURPRISE BASKET in any denomination for adding spice to your DUO !!! and then see if you can get his nose OUT of your hair!! Great clean smell!! Folks with sensitivities flock to our stuff, knowing they won't smell like a chick magazine, for sure!
When you run out of a component it may be re-ordered accordingly, for your convenience. It's always better when you plan ahead. Small re-orders may seem frugal but it can make things more complicated, and less economical. Once you get familiar with usages, you should order up, and of course...ahead. Maintain your supply, don't run out, and then don't worry...To avoid any feelings of 'product-supply-anxiety' from effecting the way and how much you use along the way.., re-order larger sizes... or come and refill your Magicpack, and extra containers from any re-orders...and relax:-) It is learned:-) THEN be surprised how long it lasts;->
Yes of course! After you order your Magicpack Louise Marie will customize it's PROCEDURE
AND USE to you, and be your coach:-) You will enjoy her smooth expertise at doing this! A bunch of choices in sizing before purchasing, but mostly done over a few months does in-diary with you and your new kit. She is ready to read all you posts in this private diary on planetlonghair.com.
YES, as long as you like, she allows and feeds our long hair care relationship, happily!!! We even archive volumes of your diary, you are welcome to continuously use the kit forever, and work with us, to your benefit, and it rivets you into successful system usage. Support for members is free, as long as you maintain your Longhairs® Magicpack kit supply in it's entirety. You will learn by reviewing your posts.
Because it just doesn't work out, it is not enough to actually get a grip on things before product-anxiety and need to re-order kicks in. It becomes close to 'over' too soon. Inevitably re-ordering would also be all at once;-( 6-month shampoo sets rule, re-ordering is usually a few things in stock-up sizes instead. The standard MP shampoo set is stable and for a good while. Maybe order a LONGHAIRS® BTN Duo Beginners Kit...Add a non-member SURPRISE BASKET in any denomination for adding spice to your DUO!!!
Getting all 4 components in the 1 year in the Longhairs® Magicpack Catalog section is the best buy for mailorder folks. As immediate locals, (one is welcome maintain a 6 monther or less if someone is a 3-4x per year appointment holder or patient keeping regular of hers or is an in-store client)

Six month-ers of the Magicpacks or related 'put-together' components, these such named items bunches(there are 4 of these) will usually last a fair bit longer than stated, especially if your hair is presently shorter. One bottle that was compared to their old brand, lasted 3 times longer less filler is one reason. Yes... even if you do the recommended 4 tiny lathers
. The longer you use our stuff, as directed, the less you need.
It consists of our dear Louise Marie!!!! With your Longhairs® Magicpack she will help along the way by your side, busily setting everything up, doing tests, supervising your on-line-diary notes you'll keep, and prescribing as you evolve. Support is mostly product related, and because she believes in YOU, like you believe in her with the MP you ordered. Support for Longhairs® Magicpackers it is at no extra cost. She is a personal hair trainer, teacher, coach and tutor, but not a waitress, but she always puts alot of care towards your techniques, individualizing and customizing the use of your full Magicpack kit, heading towards making the best of your tools and products you have invested in. We consider Magicpack like having a pallette, learning to paint artistically, but not at all like a paint-by-number. She is very ept at coping with the initially overwhelming feeling of the 'full-fridge' (as opposed to other likes leaving you constantly needy). We are not 'selling-as you-go', and we are not for sale in any stores...because Louise Marie comes with it:-)
YES, intensive support at first while you read and begin to digest technical info in our support facility:-)
YES, and YES to both questions! You pay for what you fill in the bottle, savings if you do it, with our help:-) Tuesdays and Wednesdays are the best refilling days for us, staff helps...hours 11:30-8. Any other days are for more experienced Longhairs® Magicpack members refilling, as Louise Marie is usually in-sessions Thursday thru Sundays.
NO but you may, it can be that easy. Seldom is the Longhairs® Magicpack used up or re-ordered 'all-at-once', so the initial outlay is not usually any indication whatsoever of the cost of maintaining it. Reorder in individual items and any sizes you like when you need them.
Excellent! As well as in preventing common school-caught head-lice, YES, by all means, share these with your child;-) Lice don't like our stuff... but kids and other pets do, and good habits start early:-)
Of course, yes. And for the 'complicated stuff' it just depends on how involved someones needs are or someone wants to get. She can deal with folks refreshingly easily on all levels, and at the same time is very capable of some pretty high-end results.
At you level at your speed, even basic care is going to thrill you,and you'll be glad you asked, and gladder that you came in for a trim, some of our 'basic' shampoo and conditioner(and Flexipick). You can stay at that level if you choose, no problem at all.
You'll still find Longhairs brand of perfection distinctively present even for your simple needs:-)
Oh and complicated? Somebody has to do it, and there's nobody better than LML to do it ....and it's not really that complicated, it just so happens Magicpacking or 'kitting' may not be for you:-)
One of the reasons Louise Marie Longhairs created and goes to all the efforts to share them..is to do just.... that make you happy, and if you are we are happy too!When you're that different, you have to!
Our instructions were designed to produce the very best results (if you came to the studio she would show you just how wonderful these instructions do work) but until then enjoy what you are doing if it makes your hair happy long hair...it's better than anything else out there for you, happy, if not then lets work on you understanding the instructions better because results are entirely reliant on method of use.
You alone are responsible for the results you get.. We just provide the tools. If you just want to not follow for the sake of not being willing to open your mind, that would be a whole other story.
If you love it well you must be doing something right and here is credit for it :-) If you don't ...you know what you need to do.:-)

Perhaps this may work with chemical products and product that need such help. We don't. By following our diresctions for our products with our products... you will get very smooth hair that without a forced hand is staying smooth.
This might also work where the products(even some natural) chemicals regardless of temperature spread what good oils(processed or emulsified) might happen to be in their stuff. I guess it also depends on the nature theory (if there is even one) and strength of what they might be using. It (luke warm water and rinsed with cold) certainly isn't a 'long hair do or die rule' of any sort and we don't keep this in mind prior to making any product for long hair just to make it in the way certain people want to use one out there. There is no general rule that we look for to follow when we manufacture except success.
I do know you cannot move butter or good oils around properly like you think you are doing with lukewarm or cool water unless where is a high detergent value to do the job. The oils in our products and the nature of it are not such chemical, but designed to melt in at higher than body temperature (many reasons for this) without the use of the chemicals or pre-processings that an average consumer may not understand. Our products sufficiently 'open to accept' when they are supposed to, 'penetrate and close' on their own when they are supposed to, it's programmed in...unlike 'outside' products that coat or are 'simple-natured in design.
The temperature controls that you are choosing because of a tip here an there that are not speaking of Longhairs products at all, are only tips for common products that produce these needs that they arose from. Doing this with the temperature with our products is definitely going to meddle with the way our products were designed to work, which they do completely on their own ...unique in the way and depth that they penetrate. In other words what you need to do for other products out there our products do 'for you' and 'with and on it's own accord if you provide the environment it needs to naturally do so and not interfere in such a way.
The need to apply outside information on our perfectly well instructed product is indeed overkill. There is no need here for outside tips that are contrary to manufacturers directions. There is no need to make a product that feeds into these theories as we are beyond making a generic product work as that is backwards thinking.
Doing 'other directions' is like not following direction on a cake mix, because you deemed them not normal and then complain because it came out less than right.. ..after you changed the clear instructions. Besides the fact that scalp's, natural oil production system has properties that need to be activated, circulation ceated or allowed so your body can properly cleanse (plugged up scalps solidified oil in there that goes rancid, is often why some people's long hair up close smells like an old boot and their hairlines face and backs are pimply.)
Any good oil including your scalp's own oil(if it is clean and not rancid)needs to flow and not be solidified into waxy plugs.(honest...we have no conspiracy with your hot water provider) Just with most of our stuff works best with our instructions because the instructions are made for the product, not because we never checked around or forgot to ask what hoops people need to go through to make some things do their job.
Our clients hair is long, healthy growing .... problem and odor-free....and our client love to learn. Why mess with success!
One of the reasons Louise Marie Longhairs created and goes to all the efforts to share them..is to do just.... that make you happy, and if you are we are happy too!When you're that different, you have to!
Our instructions were designed to produce the very best results (if you came to the studio she would show you just how wonderful these instructions do work) but until then enjoy what you are doing if it makes your hair happy long hair...it's better than anything else out there for you, happy, if not then lets work on you understanding the instructions better because results are entirely reliant on method of use.
You alone are responsible for the results you get.. We just provide the tools. If you just want to not follow for the sake of not being willing to open your mind, that would be a whole other story.
If you love it well you must be doing something right and here is credit for it :-) If you don't ...you know what you need to do.:-)
When a mirror squeaks it is not because it dry it is because it is smooth and glassy, and not rough.
Have you read what each lathering
does on our website?.Did you do the special app on the ends thing till creamy with the shampoo?
Have you used the product for longer than 1 or 2 times before deciding to change how to do it. Our recommended instructions that have worked to achieve success over quarter of a century focusing on longhair. User should keep in mind that it always takes time to turn over the hair into a new product.
Your old product no matter how 'natural' was a completely different composition that ours. Practise also makes perfect. If you had problems with limp hair before, tangles before, no shine and texture problems before we recommend you learn to give things more of a chance past first impression. Seems is the correct word, because it is not. In fact it is preparing your hair to accept the conditioner properly on a correctly prepared slate. If you choose to change the number of latherings to what you see as 'normal' or 'reasonable' you will not get as good results and you'll be using more conditioner than shampoo in total to compensate, same as if you were to do procedure
incorrectly or halfway.
We provide by obligation, what tutorial or information is tested by time and us, the manufacturer because it works best. If we provide 'normal instructions that would mean we'd have to make a mediocre product that matches them. Just so we don't rock the proverbial boat. It is about doing what you need to do to get superbly unusual results. well with most of us anyway.
Incidentally, the same rules as with s*x, you can do it quickly and many times as long as it is done correctly, and feels good
Q:I have been using natural products in my hair for years since I started growing my hair, what's the difference? Everything natural is all the same purpose to clean the hairs...isn't natural natural and doesn't natural generic include long hair?
A: If generic is your bag it's your bag.If you believe 'natural is a description that tell you anything, Eg: natural beef, natural bread, made with natural flour, natural rosemary (is there non-natural rosemary?)
You get the picture.You're mistaking a natural product for general use, as for what's making the general rule. You might be confusing that type of product with products made for long hair especially, that IS naturally pathed for very specific results. Our product and directions are specifically designed to deal with and prevent long hair issues. Don't confuse 'natural' (sales pitch word) with 'good for your needs'. As a standard 'natural' is what we feel is the way everything should just 'be'. Without considering 'natural' as a bonus. Ask yourself does everything natural in the world belong in one classification.... and belong on your hair, good for long hair? 'Natural' is not the only credential necessary to make it 'for' long hair..Our NO list
EVERYBODY at all lengths should be using 'natural' stuff and there shouldn't 'be' anything else and then for long hair there is us where we are natural of course... but we specialize at Longhairs. Special product special purpose, special instructions.
Because the nature of our products are so different than other lines that ours need to be used together for the best results.Our shampoos and conditioners were carefully and specifically made for eachother, and interact together like a marriage or match made in heaven...therefore they are sold together.
Enough. If you use not enough shampoo in each dose, or don't wash
often as daily
with those 4-5 little shampoo applications... you'll find that need more conditioner. Be sure to always scrub conditioners into the scalp before detangling. Provided you've used the shampoo as directed... the approximate #10-B conditioner for very long, 2 tablespoons, (#9-Trees version use 3 tbsp) as directed and it should melt in right away, 'if' you shampooed right according to our direction.

Questions about how to properly use our horn combs
The letter X is used to show you which combs have what thickness
choices. It can be seen as a lighter or heavier comb you can choose and
is relative to that model. Some people know that they like a certain
weight or solidity to a tool they use, if you don't have a preference
you can ask for help as to what thickness Doctorlonghair who had these
carved, recommends. Other than that if you like a rich feeling n a
comber ...go up in x'x ...a scritcher?...stay 1x or slender.
Absolutely! Yes. no restrictions when we categorize... just different options;-) You are expected to use the finer as scritchers regardless of hair's thickness, but you'd use a no other type to pull through, that is a fine hair option, but pulling a scritcher thru is not mandatory.
...for a very buzzy-feel for mainly scalp, very fine and very buzzy-feel especially for pores and scalp stimulating, medium feeling rubbing/stimulating and rubbing, or more suited for rubbing/combing. one of each of these is a good thing... it's in the tines(teeth).
...for a same but moderated buzzy-feel, because it's designed shape wise for many uses a 'different feeling' Scritching, combing hair strands and lengths and fell/swoop scrubby-rubbing, Gorgeous keepsakes, lifetime heirlooms if you use and care for all these well. Got to have one of these too... makes long or any hair shiny!! no tangles.
...for a moderate buzzy-feel as it is for both purposes, combing and scalp all can be used for both stimulating scalp and rubbing. Still feels rrrrreally gooood! Got to have a few of these too... makes roots and strand happy long or any hair shiny but doesn't over stimulate (is that even possible??)!!
'Some of each the area that touch the scalp tines are contoured/curved edge-line, and some are a flat line then there's a different feel and effect with thicker and thinner tines.
'Classics' are good for de-frizzing and for combing straight or straightened hair (avoid styling products not to be used directly with horn combs)
Have LML help or choose some then ask if you want to cover all bases.order them for pets too!
Questions on caring loving and feeding of your Longhairs Hairgasm horn comb:-)
Use nothing on your comb to treat it, but lanolin, preferably our lanolin, it is sister to the horn, from the same animal, oil is not just oil, it is not a matter of being 'good'? it must be correct though, it does matter. (I could envision LML making you promise before selling you a raw beauty...use only our unsulfonated lanolin, or nothing. To begin with, it somewhat waterproofs and seals it, any other soakingin will swell-up and ruin your horncomb.
NEVER GET YOUR HORNCOMB WET... NEVER KEEP IT BY YOUR SINK OR IN THE BATHROOM
