This deep conditioner is the sh*t. I spend a lot of time in the pool during the summer, and even though my hair is keratin treated, it gets a little crispy on the ends and the treatment doesn't last as long as during the colder months.
Last weekend I spent 2 full days in the pool. Saturday night I applied this in the shower and my hair just sucked it up. After rinsing, no tangles - not a single one - which is impressive, since my hair was one big knot when I got in the shower. After blowdrying my hair felt like silk, and my ends weren't crispy. Sunday, all day in the pool again, used this product again in the evening, and results were even better.
If you need a good deep conditioning mask (not a protein treatment), you will love this. If your hair still feels dry after using, you need to use a protein reconstructor first, so the moisture will have something to bind to in your hair.
I liked this just as much as the Pureology Hydra Whip, which is $50 per tub - this was only $33. I do wish it came in a tube rather than a tub, though (travel size comes in a tube).

I was recently forced to cut off a good 3 inches off my hair due to my love affair with my flat iron. I would straighten or curl my hair every day. My hair is naturally wavy-curly, so I prefer to straighten my hair, so my hair won't look like a hot mess. About after 2 years of trying to grow it out, my hair is at a stand-still. It will not go past my bra line. So I needed to revive my hair. I had read over numerous reviews on beauty guru's websites, they live by Macadamia Natural Oil Products. I had been using the Macadamia Natural Oil Heating Oil Spray and that worked wonders for my hair after I would straighten it, it would leave my hair glossy and smooth but didn't protect much from split ends. So I bought a not-so-cheap jar of the Macadamia Natural Oil Deep Repair Mask at Ulta for $40, it's a large jar, about 16ounces. Most guru's said it lasted them about 4-6 months. PLEASE put this stuff on your fried hair! It goes on like butter! Smells delicious, and left my hair very soft and manageable. Now, I am letting my hair breathe with very little heat. I am not straightening or curling my hair with any irons. I ONLY blow dry my hair with a heat protectant and a penetrating Moroccan argon oil (please see my review) and my hair is healing on a daily basis. I cut my hair about 3 weeks ago and it has grown an inch so far. I'm also taking folic acid and biotin for my growth process. BUT....please invest in this mask if your hair needs therapy. It's a pricy fix but will work wonders!

This produkt does its job. I really like the smell, even after straightening my hair the scent still lingers. My hair was healthy and shiny before and the mask didn't change anything about it... so it works but it isn't better than my other conditioners and masks. I really like that you can put as much as you want in your hair, you can even apply it to the roots and your hair wont look greasy.
It makes the styling process a lot easier and your hair will look fuller, shiny and frizz free.
It works really well in combination with the macadamia natural oil treatment.
The only con I have is: it's full of chemicals and non-natural stuff... your hair has to decide whether it likes it or not. My hair is okay with it.This mask is worth every penny you pay for it.

After reading so many great reviews on this product, I decided to try it on my limp, damaged hair. My hair is so dry from years of chemical treatments, and from over washing so I thought why not. I bought it at cvs for about 30 dollars. After the first treatment, my hair felt so soft and silky. I did also leave it on for 2 hours. However, after a couple of uses, I realized that this mask just coats your hair and after a few washes, it washes out. It doesn't actually do anything to enhance the quality and health of your hair. I've learned that you need a protein treatment for that. So if you have healthy hair already and want your hair to just look better, this is the treatment for you, however if your trying to fix your damage hair, keep looking and for a protein treatment.

I absolutely LOVE this stuff! It smells amazing (kind of fruity). When I put this on my hair it makes it feel like butter! No need for a conditioner. But the real reason why I love it so much is because I had my hair chemically straightened like twice, and my hair came out in super bad condition (I would not recommend anyone doing chemical processes to their hair). My hair was so dry and coarse and really hard. This product helped a lot in restoring my hair back to healthiness. And it's very long lasting. Had this for like 4 months now and not even half way done.

I waited until I finished the entire tub before reviewing. This lasted me at least 6 months (I used it about twice a week, and have long hair). My hair is frizzy/wavy and dry at ends so I really wanted to try this product based on rave reviews. When you put it on your hair it feels AMAZING. All the tangles and knots come out and you are left with silky smooth hair. Unfortunately, the benefits don't last. As soon as you get out of the shower and dry your hair - there is no difference. I even stopped using my flat iron (just used hair dryer) for months and my hair was still dry and frizzy and damaged. This did nothing for my hair in the long-term, to me its just a nice conditioner to smooth your hair after you shampoo. I have seen no improvement, in fact, it seems drier than ever.

After watching so many youtube gurus and reading great things about this product I decided to give it a try. I have long wavy hair that tends to frizz. When I used the product my hair was the softest it has ever been, but as my hair started to dry it got super frizzy! I was so disapponted. I read the ingridient list (I should've done this before purchasing the product) to find out that the second ingredient was alcohol :(( so drying for the hair. My advice if you really want to try this mask buy a sample first and see if you like it. I will not be repurchasing or even finishing the product.

I have bought around 3 tubs of this and it is still my favourite! It is so lovely and your hair WILL be soft after use, try not to over use it as it will make it quite flat and will of course eventually get greasier quicker!

I really liked it. My hair were brittle and easy to break, from environmental damage mostly, from sun and salty water. This mask made them silky smooth in just few uses! I can't really complain now, my hair look good! I didn't expect this.
And a little goes a long way so this mask would last you for a while definitely. It is rich and the smell is pleasant. The packaging is nice as well, it looks good in the bathroom.

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.

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
