Mine can flash-dry with the full packet of gelatin, so I usually use the "half packet" recipe or 1 and 1/8 teaspoons gelatin. If you are using vinegar or citric acid in the PT, try leaving that out.

Glad you like it! Perhaps the protein did make your hair less porous, so it dried quickly. It often does make hair dry faster. Ha, I often use protein after a PT too. They're useful cosmetics, after...
