I got this by accident. I was holidaying in Europe and went into this store. The lady did not speak English well and there were no English on the packagings. I just picked this up to try thinking it is a hair mask.

I apply to damp hair, after shampoo after conditioning or not. It works as a solo leavein conditioner as well. This is moisturizing and leaves my hair smelling nice the next day. I am quite surprised, but my hair seems to resist the environmental smells that tends to get attached to it during the day. By the end of the next day (i shampoo every night) my hair still smells nice, it does not smell like the product but just nice and fresh. The product does not smell like the normal floral or fruity scents, its more mid tone with a ting of musk maybe?

It is a light, lotiony, white texture, non greasy and also not the typical silicon leave-in serum. I very much prefer this type.

This is my HG leave-in treatment. Sadly they have reformulated this and now comes in a different packaging. It also smells different but the texture is the same. I still prefer the first one i got which comes in an orange tube with the word "sos" on it.

Phytum hair Repair (Yves Rocher)
This is supposed to be a leave in treatment that ‘cures’ split ends “SOS Split End – smooth instantly and progressively repair split ends”… based on the rave reviews on the site (Yves Rocher), I feel for it. Now, I feel duped. This was about a bit expensive for a very small 1.7 oz of product. The scent is a clean, ‘hair product’ scent, and the product itself is like if you mixed a cream and serum. On the hair, it’s very lightweight & would be perfect for someone with straight hair or very fine hair. I have fine, curly hair & feel like this did NOTHING. It didn’t reduce frizz, ‘fix’ my (not very unhealthy in the first place) split ends…. Only thing it did is make my hair soft & smell clean. Not Impressed. I even continued use for hope of the “progressively repair split ends” claim. Now I’m done with the tube and can say that I would not buy again, or even take this from a ‘free’ basket. It’s a waste of time for me… maybe I’d feel different if I had a different hair type. For your curly, frizzy, or damaged hair types – save your money & pass on this.
