I can't find any information about the community well in this neighborhood (other then address and number of employees(3), lol). I'm pretty sure the hardness is about the same. There is no...

There is a salon here that sells it. You can do a search on the Kenra website for a local dealer.

I don't think the suggestions fit our low dews very well. So, if what you're using is working,...

Hi SegB,

My hair is mid-back length and I use a puff about the size of a plum on towel dried hair. I scrunch it in and then plop and airdry. I do use it over a LI. It has plenty of hold for me...

Its purpose is to moisturize.
I only use my CO-wash on my scalp so a RO condish adds the moisture and is also what I use for the detangling step. I let it soak in for 3-5 minutes before rinsing.
