My stylist and I have a wonderful stand relationship for several years and while I trust her with my hair I trust that she knows her products. Truly tho I'm looking at the situation as the wrong product for my hair that was a learning lesson for us both.
I'm not asking you to pass judgment on the product with out trying it yourself, but consider this a forewarning of things to look for. When she put the product on everything felt fine just like any other hair product that had been applied. She explained there would be no issue styling with a hot iron once dry listed the many other "qualities" of the product including: eliminating frizz, and sealing split ends to name a few.
Leaving the salon I felt good about the product, good enough to buy a bottle of it with her recommendation knowingly I was nearly out of the product I had at home which was comparable in price. After getting home a few hours later I decided to flat iron which she didn't do to allow ample time for it to dry - then the nightmares began. I noticed the product made my hair coarse but thought maybe I'm just feeling things so I continued and literally in white globs the product melted off my hair. I quickly hopped into the shower and washed it out - few hours later still felt coarseness from the product which I believe to of been the sealing quality - wash again, no dice still coarse. Next day after morning shower still felt the coarseness but did not have the white blobs stream down my hair and as I had the day before. Final result, I wasn't happy so I called the salon and while they didn't "understand" had said to go ahead and return what I had purchased - GOOD cause I didn't want it.
I later talked to a hair stylist at the Hot at Beachcliff event and she had mentioned it sounded she had put too much of it onto my hair possibly - but she wasn't familiar with the specific product. I'm still returning it though, if a stylist can accidentally put too much on I'm sure I'll be making a mess of it on my own!
Zero out of five stars. Nora tested, Nora not approved.
