I've seen this mask make appearances in various Youtube monthly favorites videos, but--for whatever reason--I had never felt inclined to buy it. I guess it just seemed a bit pricey for what it was, which has never been an issue before. One day I was at Target and I saw two of these bad boys strapped together for a BOGO deal. I figured it would be pointless to skip out on that deal since I had just run out of my previous Neutrogena hair mask.
As soon as I opened the first tub, I took a big whiff (since everyone RAVES about the scent). I can't exactly describe the scent of this mask, but it's very fragrant, fresh, and incredibly pleasing. It doesn't exactly smell like Macadamia, it's got a light, sweet scent that isn't fruity. I absolutely love that the scent lingers in my hair for hours after. I'm definitely someone who likes their hair to exude pleasing fragrances. I get a lot of compliments on the scent of my hair even days after using this product.
I will typically apply this mask to my hair once or twice a week. I keep it off my roots and stick to applying it from the middle to the ends of my hair. I have very long, thick hair and this product distributes nicely. I don't have to use a bunch of it to apply it where it counts. I usually apply while in the shower, clip it, put on a shower cap, and rinse 5-7 minutes later. It leaves my hair so silky soft whether I style it or just let it air dry. I'm glad I had the opportunity to try it for such a good deal, and will definitely repurchase.
this stuff gave me the best hair day of my life, period. target sells them in a two pack for 27.99 , go there. will repurchase for my entire life. use this, sulfate free shampoo and fekkai glossing cream and holy junk will your hair be gorgeous.
I tried MorrocanOil some months back and didn't like the products at all. I thought the Macadamia Natural Oil range was another fad product that seems to be on the market at the moment promoting the benefits of natural oils.
My hair was recently further damaged due to a hairdressing mishap. After realising there was no point blaming my hairdresser for it- I went on a search for a product to help rescue my hair.
I had been using Redken products (the blue set for distressed hair) and my hairdresser mentioned that whilst it was good as it was protein based and will help rebuild the hair- it wasn't all that successful in locking my colour and adding moisture.
She suggested getting the Macadamia Natural Oil range. I ended up purchasing this online. It was cheaper to buy there than to buy here in Australia.
My initial thought was the products smelt amazing. It wasn't overwhelming but it was really fresh. Compared to MorrocanOil which I thought had a horrid smell.
I used the shampoo, conditioner as well as the deep repair mask. I was blown away by how my hair felt while I was in the shower, and my hair felt fantastic as I was drying it. The repair mask was thick and creamy and felt very nourishing. I only needed a small amount of product for my hair.
It will be interesting to see how it improves my hair condition with use. My hair was snapping and fried from my hairdressing mishap and from the continual bleaching we had subjected to it. I was pleasantly surprised by the way this product made my hair feel.
Definitely highly recommended so far!
Love this line of products, esp this deep repair masque. My hair is naturally coarse but this stuff does a great job of taming it and keep it super soft. I use it 1x a week after Joico Chelating shampoo and it works wonderful, my hair feels like silk the next day! It's a bit pricey but since I only use it once a week I figure it should last awhile. Leave it on for about 5 min in a shower cap and it'll reallyyyyy moisturizes your hair. I like the packaging... those pump conditioners can be really annoying and waste a lot of product!
I bought this product after watching several youtube videos and reading reviews everywhere. It has worked magically on my hair. My hair used to be long and i donated 15 inches and transformed to a bob. i had to straighten my hair almost everyday since it was too short to tie up and naturally dries with some kinks and random waves and flippy hair. My hair has been damaged and trimming just gets me right back to where I started. My hair has been healthier and has grown down a bit pas my collar bone. I highly reccommend this product.
For those who haven't gotten the results they wanted, some websites are selling fake versions of this. the packaging is the same but the product is different. One of the websites is Amazon, I found it super cheap but I knew there had to be some catch to it so I did some more research and found that the product was fake and smelled different than the original.
This made my hair have more bounce and shine, but it broke me out very badly! ): The smell is pleasant and it works nicely but I feel like my Aussie 3 minute miracle does almost just as well, if not better! Because the whole line breaks me out I use the oil and mask as a prewash treatment and am sure to keep hair off my shoulders, back and face!

This is the most luxurious, creamy, wonderful deep conditioning treatment I've ever tried.
My internal monologue while using this product for the first time went something like this:
"MMMkay...let me just unscrew the little green lid...OOOh! A second little white cap...let's see if i can get that off. Oh nice! It's a creamy pink color. Let me just scoop some of this up with my fingers....OH MY GOODNESS. It smells sooo good! Yum! I can't wait to slather all this goodness all over my hair. AAAAhhhh this feels so nice....I'm gonna work it through the ends with my wide-toothed comb...."
*I twist my hair up and clip it using a large hair clip. Then I pop on a shower cap.*
About 8 minutes later, while I'm rinising my hair:
"Oh my! My hair is so smooth! It feels like silk. Oh my gosh. I could rinse it forever...it just...feels....so....good! I can't wait to dry it and see how it looks!"
After I dry my hair is so incredibly soft and buoyantly bouncy. Just lovely. And it retains every bit of the products wonderful smell!
As much as I love this product, I only use it twice a week as it is a deep conditioning treatment, and using it more often tends to weigh my hair down a bit.
Love it!

I love this deep mask. It makes my highlighted, damaged hair feel soft again. I would recommend this if you have course and or tangly hair. I'll definitely buy this again. I've tried other brands that don't work as well on my hair, such as, Morrocan oil treatment, Enjoy, Pureology, all of which cost slightly more.
I've heard a TON of good reviews on this product and I really wanted to try it out. In fact, I had to wait one eff-ing month to save up for it, until I can finally buy it at my local Target. And when I got home, I ran straight into the shower and just slathered this all over my hair.
And when my hair dried, it was just normal. I had my hopes up so high! I have typical straight thick Asian hair, and it tends to frizz when I get out of the shower. I thought that maybe this product could make my hair softer and shinier. Nope. ZIp. Nada.
It didn't make my hair any frizzier, it just didn't do ANYTHING. Nothing. I was so disappointed! I really wanted to like this product alot! But I can't.
Waste of 31$. Will not be purchasing again, unless it somehow works :p
