I LOVE THIS!!! It's so awesome! It really helped me out. My hair has been SUPER dry. I found this at Marshall's actually! LOL! A discount store! I got it for like 7 bucks! I would have paid full price if I knew where to freaking get it! I'm going to have to do a little search when I run out of this. I use it all the time nd I've gotten so many compliments on how great my hair looks. My friends asked me what hair gel I was using because my hair was so shiny, I wasn't wearing any product in my hair, I had just usd this stuff! LOL!

The mask makes my hair really soft and smooth without fail. My only complaint is the tub packaging, which is really just a marketing gimmick for people to identify it as a mask. It doesn't fool me though, I know it's a conditioner but nonetheless an impressive one. A little pricey, but I would buy it again. It's good to have this life-saver product around during your bad hair days.

Smoothens, make my hair so neat, silky smooth, and straight. Nicely fragranced just like the rest of Smooth Intense line but it doesn't stays on my hair. My hair is actually already straight but I always like a boost and I use this once or twice a week, alternating with my other masks or hairspa. I've once straightened by hair chemically using L'Oreal Professionnel smoothing service (with XTenso product), and the ends of my hair are frizzy, and this mask does nothing to smooth them, that's the con of this product. Price tag is a bit high to me (it's not as cheap as in the US :(), but this is the cheapest hairmask that works for me, Kerastase and L'Oreal Professionnel costs much more.

I have dry, frizzy, coarse hair that is naturally wavy/curly. Whenever I blow out my hair straight, I usually pre-condition, shampoo, post condition, blow dry, and touch up with a flat iron. I bought this as an alternative to my usual post conditioner (Pantene) and used it for the first time today. After shampooing, I put a generous amount of this stuff on towel-dried hair, then covered it with a cap, leaving it in for about 15-20 minutes. Rinsing it out was a little weird because it made my shower floor a bit slippery. Can't say that the results are magical, but they are OK and on par with my regular Pantene conditioner. Oddly, one of the ingredients in this treatment is isopropyl alcohol, which is drying to the hair, so I am a little hesitent to use it constantly. As a smoother, it does seem to help, so I'll probably buy it again and rotate it with Pantene. Not bad, but not as magical for me as it has been for other reviewers.

My HG! A lot of products weight down my fine asian hair. However, since I've colored my hair for a long time now, my hair's fried beyond all reasons. When I was at Walgreens the other day, I saw that this was BOGOF so i picked up 4 of them. I'm SO GLAD I did. I've already used up 3 of these, and I'm willing to continue to repurchase as long as they sell it. It makes my hair so soft and touchable, and disguise the damage really well. It also makes my hair have that mirror like shine that I've seen in TV comercials. Love it! GO BUY SOME!

This mask is really rich! It made my hair soft instantly but as it's so rich, I don't dare to use it more often than once a week. I like to condition my hair daily as it tends to be frizzy so I should probably get something else that I can use daily and leave this for a weekly mask. I think it's comparable to or better than (gasp) kerastase mask and much cheaper too. Since it's not a pinch on the pocket, will prob repurchase ;-)

Seems to work a lot better than the higher end brands like Kerastase and L'oreal Professionel. For something you can get at the local pharmacy, it works out pretty well. My hair is DEFINITELY less frizzy commpared as to when I just used Keratase.

This gives no long-term improvement, but it is still better then the Garnier masque. It's also just as good as there masques in the "professional" line. This leaves my hair soft and shiny, and it also smooths out my dry ends. Unfortunately, like most of these masques, once you wash your hair the following day and don't use the mask, the hair goes back to same old, same old. (that's what I meant by no long-term improvement)
Packaging is fine, price was great, the scent is tolerable. Also the texture seemed pretty much like any other hair masques I have used.

I heard some rave reviews of this stuff, but it didn't really work too well on my frizz, and it weighed my hair down a bit. The smell was ok. I got this on clearance, I don't think it's worth the price tag.

For the money, this is a great deep conditioner. It smells nice and leaves my hair soft without being weighed down. I read in a magazine that this works as well as Kerastase, but I am way to cheap to buy that for a comparison. The deep conditioner comes in a little jar and scooping it out in the shower is annoying, but for about $4 I am not complaining. I have tried almost all the drugstore deep conditioners--John Frieda, Pantene, etc.--and this is by far the best yet.

Used this for the first time tonight on my very coarse curly hair-I blow-dried it using no other product, because I wanted to see the results using just the masque. I was amazed at how easily I was able to blow-dry. The brush did not 'stick' in my hair at all, and I was able to dry it in about half the usual time. The end results were about the same as usual, but it took me far less time and effort to get there. This reminds me of the conditioners that come in hair color kits, which are usually much more moisturizing than regular conditioners. Overall, I'm very happy with it, because I got my usual results without the use of any serums, straightening balms, etc.

This deep conditioner works pretty well but I prefer it as a regular conditioner as it doesn't seem very 'deep' to me. My hair sucks up moisture very easily. The packaging is just silly and it take forever to rinse out..can feel rather slimy.

Really great deep conditioner. I got this and ColorVive mask as a BOGO (like another reviewer) and this stuff is great for my colortreated, shoulder length, fine hair. It didn't weigh it down at all and left it silky smooth. I prefer it over the color mask, btw.
My only complaint is that the container is a tub and I find that water gets in it as I'm scooping out the product- a squeeze tube (like l'oreal *3 minute*) would be better.
Will buy again.

I'm totally amazed at this product!Tamed my frizzy hair in an instant! My hair has has been spolit by constant colouring and rebonding, and i'm too lazy to get salon treatment. This works wonders on my hair. Gives it instant shine and smoothness. The fragrance is a bit too strong and sweet though, it lingers for more than two days if I don't wash my hair! But, this is definitely a much cheaper alternative than salon treatments, and works just as well. Highly recommended.

I bought this at CVS when the L'Oreal Vive collection was BOGO free. I chose the Smooth Intense and Color-Care masques ($5.99 each for 5oz) to try on my thick, wavy, color-treated hair that is in major need of a trim and re-coloring. I am absolutely thrilled with the results of just one use of the Smooth Intense! I left the masque on for a/b 10 minutes while in the shower yesterday, so maybe that had something to do with it? I let my hair air-dry, and I could not stop running my fingers through my hair once it was dry, it felt like silk. I woke up this morning and, I'm not even kidding, my hair looked like it had been blown out. I am floored at how shiny and smooth my hair is, especially since I let it air-dry yesterday, and then slept on it! If only I could get these results EVERY day...LOVE THIS STUFF!

Loves it. Loves it. I tried the serum first and really felt it made a big difference. My hair is naturally wavy but I wear it straight most of the time. I applied the mask after shampooing my hair with Alberto VO5 honey and almond. The treatment in my opinion smelled very nice and the texture is comparable to Kerastase Oleo de Bain. The results were much better. It left my long hair extremely smooth and blowdrying was a snap. I finished it off with the serum that made it even shinier. Three days later my hair still smells nice, it's easy to retouch and is still very very soft. I was very impressed.

This masque (spelling on the jar, made the review for the mask hard to find) does exactly what it says. It made my dry, frizzy, recently highlighted hair smooth and shiny and very manageable, all with a great, though somewhat strong, fragrance. There's not a lot of product in the tub, and I think I paid $6 for it, which was a drawback, but it certainly works! I think I will try more products from this line.
