Customer Reviews

WONDERFUL PRODUCT5
I ordered this product after watching the infomercial late one night. (Insomnia sometimes has it's benefits) As someone who used to do hair for a living, I have tried nearly everything on the market. My shower rack was always overflowing with numerous shampoos and conditioners, but no more. This delicious smelling, one-step cleanser/conditioner is the only product I use now. I have somewhat fine hair that's a bit dry from color treatments and I needed a product that would restore a healthy shine and manageability without over-conditioning. WEN cleansing conditioner does the job all in one step. I apply about two to three pumps to wet hair when I first get in the shower then rinse out as the last thing. You can add a tiny drop after as a leave-in conditioner. You'll be amazed at the results regardless of your hair type. One last tip, unless you have extremely thick long hair that's as dry as the Sahara desert, you do not need to use the recommended amount of 16-24 pumps. You'll figure out the right amount for your hair. Also, buy it here on Amazon and don't get caught up in the auto shipments required on the infomercial. Happy conditioning!

Now for the results: it's pretty good. I'm a Polynesian woman living in tropical Hawaii with thick, curly hair. My only damage has come from one at-home relaxer years ago, pregnancy, and genetic hair loss. Curly hair like mine needs a lot of products to get it to listen to you. This one was no exception. For cleansing and making my hair feel soft and healthy, it did its job well; for making it LOOK soft and healthy and bouncy and curly, it needed some help. But I'm having a hard time going back to mousse and gel since using this, so now I have to find other styling solutions. Living in humid weather always adds to the frizz factor, but I thought this would at least ameloriate the situation a bit.

Worth the Dough!5
I ordered this after watching the infamous infomercial...I'm sure you've all seen it! Anyway, I am an African-American woman who has done absolutely EVERYTHING to my hair and now have (thick, thick)relaxed hair. I only mention my race here because I think it is important to stress what the creator of this product was saying about his line--it works for anyone! I have only used this product for two weeks and I have to say that never before has my hair looked and felt so touchable--I literally used to cringe (and divert the perpetrator) if it seemed as if someone wanted to put a hand on my hair! I also used to be in a state of perpetual unrest--concerning my mop. It just seemed like no matter what products I used, I was always looking for something to do BETTER. The search is definitely over; I am truly satisfied. I would recommend this product to anyone who needs more good hair days!
Price: $28.00

Blow Drying on Low Heat then Banding

I tried this after watching a few videos on the subject over the past few months, the blow drying that is. It turned out really well and what I noticed with this blow drying session, compared to my last in Dec. 08, my hair wasn't slippery with oil and it didn't have a look of fried-ness. It wasn't fried but it just looked it. My hair turned out really soft this time and very fluffy.

Since I have arthritis I alternated between holding the hair taut with my KakaKiki brush and just holding it with… Continue

I love henna

Today i did a henna gloss. It was the best henna gloss i ever did. My hair doubled in thickness and felt so strong. I had just taken out a weave i had in for 2 1/2 weeks. I don't know why but when i took out the weave my hair was so dry and brittle, so i co-wash 3 times and it was a tangled mess, i was on my hair from 8:00 in the morning until 10:00 that night, it seemed like my hair was one big dred loc, so i carefully pulled apart each tangle, then co-washed again, but my hair still felt dry a… Continue

Interesting Hair Myths vs Facts...

Myth: washing your hair every day strips out the nutrients.

Fact: washing your hair every day with a quality shampoo invigorates the scalp and leaves the hair healthy and shiny.

Myth: your hair gets used to one shampoo so you should change it regularly.

Fact: as long as it's a good shampoo suited to your scalp and hair type, you should get fine results every time.

Myth: if you never wash your hair, it will clean itself.

Fact: it will just get dirtier and could result in an irritated, itchy… Continue

My Hair Sistas

I feel such a bond with so many sistas on this site. When I have difficulty checking in because of technical difficulties I feel like I don't have contact with my family online. Does anyone else feel like this? There are too many people to name that I do not want to leave anyone out, but thank you for being my hair sista. I know that Kelly posted a blog like this before, but I truly understand what she means.

My hair is a precious treasure. I am ever so, gentle with it. I avidly believe that hair is irreplaceable. Once it's gone it's gone. That hair will never be resurrected. You can grow more, but hair that is lost is lost for ever.

Singing in the rain..

While I can't say that rain water is better then water from the tap at my house but as I sat in the car waiting for my laundry at 3:30am at a laundromat that had no "facilities" and twisting my hair I realized I needed a little more moisture and I had run out of my little bottle of stuff so as it began to rain I climbed out of the car and stood in the rain...

Stretching Story, based on a true story :)

My hair hasn’t had a chemical relaxer since November 13th, 2008. Wow! some of you might say, and yes it has been a “wow” journey for me, but also a "whoa there" or "what the heck" journey too. :)

Last year 2008 was the year of hell for my relaxed hair. I suffered protein overload when I used henna and then mistakenly used a lot of protein products immediately after it. (I’m not knocking henna, I just didn’t get the too much protein thing.) Then I had a hairdresser under process my hair badly us… Continue
