Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I don't usually make a big note on this when I review but because some of what I have to say reflects this fact I must note I got this item through Amazon's Vine program for review. That said I wasn't in the market for this product. But I've recently been so frustrated with my hair that I saw this offered and thought it was worth trying.
My hair tends to be on the dry side more due to environment (dry Montana winters + heating = straw-like texture) than genetics. I also keep it very long because I grow it out and donate it to the Locks of Love charity every couple of years. Long hair like this tends to get really thin and dry at the ends over time. I've recently had a baby and usually during pregnancy your hair grows lush and plentiful. Mine did not. It began falling out by the handful! And though I hate sharing this with the general public... in spite of my young age I've gotten very gray in the past year too. My hair woes are many right now.
I ordered up this kit because the word gloss pretty much describes what my hair is missing these days. I nice healthy looking shine and smooth texture. I was also praying this wasn't going to be too involved because as a mom I don't have a lot of time for time consuming beauty regimens. This kit is fortunately very simple. Shampoo, condition and work in a bit of styling cream after.
As other reviewers have touched on the scent, I personally thought it was extremely light with definite green notes. I don't really care for the smell myself but it's not overpowering so I barely noticed it once my hair was dry. There are a few tips included in the kit for how best to use these products, one of which is the classic blast of cold water when you're finished rinsing out the conditioner. The shampoo is very thick which I did not expect. You won't need much to work up a really foamy lather. Because these contain olive oil you will want to rinse really well and avoid conditioning the scalp because it will weigh hair down considerably. Worried about dry scalp? With running the heat so much this winter mine was really bad before trying the shampoo and I was concerned it would be worse after subjecting it to a new product but my scalp loved this! I would suggest that when you're rinsing out both the shampoo and conditioner you do it a little longer than you're used to. I was sure mine was done and found it was still a bit slimy and had to re-rinse. The styling cream has a smooth texture that was easy to work through my hair. I probably used way too much of it because a pea-sized dab is never enough when you have hair down to your bum.
So how were the results? Silky smoothness! Not as shiny as a "glossing" kit made me think of but surprisingly lush feeling overall. Even with blow drying (which I honestly only do if I have to go out into the frigid temps) my hair feels terrific. No tangles, no frizzies. I can run my hand through my hair without pulling out handfuls of straw.
So overall I like the products, am happy with the results and would certainly recommend them. I would, however, say that I think you would get best results on shorter or curly hair versus my lengthy straight locks. I do not think this would be good for anyone with fine hair because it definitely weighs hair down but my hair is on the thick side so I cannot say for sure. My only issue with this kit and the products in general is the price tag. Normally this would be a bit expensive, a luxury I would hesitate to purchase without reading a lot of reviews. I think you'll be paying for the Fekkai name on the box more than anything because these are not large bottles of product by any means.
It should also be noted that... At last check these are not FAA approved sizes for travel, so don't let the product description's deceptive wording fool you. Also, it may be because I got this as a review set and not the one sold on the site but there was no finishing spray, travel comb or travel bag (you may want to ask around about that).
