I didn't get the miracle-effect I was hoping for based on many of the reviews here, but it was still a pretty good product for me. My hair is in bad shape right now - extremely dry, coarse, naturally curly/wavy, and after having three babies back-to-back is in need of major TLC. While I would not describe my hair as silky after using it, it definitely is softer and I will continue to use it.

Well let's see, I was lucky to stop the hair shredding until I had the bad idea to start using this product, then my hair started to fall like crazy, is being a month now, and I'm still trying to get back to normal!!!!!! THIS IS BAY FAR THE WORSE PRODUCT NOT ONLY DOES NOT DELIVER FOR ME, BUT MADE MY PROBLEM 10 WORSE!!!. If you have fine hair stay away from this crap.

This is a life saver for hair. I have long hair thats dyed & highlighted blonde. Now any blonde will tell you that it can take a lot to keep her hair healthy seeing how much you do to it. This stuff keeps your hair healthy, shiny, and just amazing looking. It's very strong and it works better then anything else in hair care and I'm a beauty junky who's used every hair care line imaginable. My only problem would be that it can strip color somewhat so I'd recommend using this a few days before you dye your hair just so you don't strip anything :) continued >>

This stuff is amazing! I didn't realize most people here were leaving it on for 20 minutes! I must've only left it on for about 3 haha. I could already tell a HUGE difference to my hair after shampooing and conditioning it, but the best part was when I use my hair dryer for the day. My hair looked shiny, soft and felt incredible! My hair feels very glossy once I apply this and is already extremely soft before I even wash it again. Hopefully the bottle will last me for another two times but next time i'm going to leave it on under a shower cap for 20 mintues. Not expensive either, I purchased this at walmart for only $12. Lovvee this!

Amazing treatment that actually does what it says! I was desperate after a terrible highlighting job at my salon. My hair was straw-like and breaking off at the root. After reading all the rave reviews on here, I purchased emergencee that night at CVS for about $15. I first clarified my hair with Neutrogena Anti-Residue, and then applied Emergencee for 20 minutes under a warm towel. Then I shampooed it out very well and conditioned with Nexxus Humectress. After using this my hair looked healthier, felt stronger, and was noticeably smoother and softer. This and Nature's Therapy have been the only things that have seemed to make a difference in my damaged hair. I can't wait to use it again because the results get even better!

This is a wonder product. I've been using it along with Nexxus Botanoil Shampoo and Keraphix conditioner and it's saved me from having to chop off my long hair after a bad perm (don't believe them when they tell you the perms are so much better than they were in the 80s!) I get good results just from leaving it on for ten minutes in a hot shower, but even better with 20 minutes under a shower cap in a hot bath. Don't try to comb this through, it doesn't have any detangling properties, and you must shampoo it out and condition afterwards (follow the directions on the bottle.) I use the Headress leave-in after showering and I can get a comb through my hair again. Nexxus is the best for damaged hair and I'm so happy I can find it at CVS now!

This is a miracle product!My hair was getting really fried from heat styling alot, but I couldn't really bear cutting it.Anyway, I figured I would give this a try as a last resort.So far, and after only ONE use, this stuff is awesome!It turned my dry damaged waist length hair into silk!After only one use!I can't get over it!It IS pretty steep in price, I had to use a good bit since my hair is long and really thick, but it's worth it if you have fried hair and you don't want to cut it all off.I'll definitely keep using! :-)

This is a fabulous luxury product. I usually use before a good quality treatment such as oleo relax, it really boosts the treatments performance. Pity its a tiny bottle and so pricy :/

The first time I used this I thought everyone was nuts! My hair felt like straw while it was wet. But after getting the hang of it, this stuff is the best!

Leave it on as long as you can uder a shower cap and/or a heat cap if you have one.

And this is the kicker right here! After you rinse you MUST use a conditioner. I prefer a leave-in like Goldwell Kerasilk.

Your hair will feel great shampoo after shampoo. It really does improve the condition of your hair, the only intensive conditioning treatment I have ever used that really does!

Yes! This stuff really does work! I'm a cosmetology student and we use this product at my school for our reconstructive treatments. I have used it on myself as well as on many other people. You can see and feel a big difference in even extremely damaged and chemically processed hair. The hair is shinier and softer to the touch. You should only use this product once a week at the most therefore it lasts quite a while and it is very much worth the price.
