I don't know why I stray from Kerastase. I get tempted time to time, but always come back. This product is very good. Not perfect, but better than most on the market. I have medium thick wavy hair and this does what it says. It reduces the volume and helps give my hair nice waves instead of a curly, frizzy mess. It also leaves my hair very soft. You do need an additional product to help with frizz, but this is a good leave-in whether you are letting your hair air dry or using a hair dryer. And you only need a little of the product so despite the expensive price tag, it lasts a long time.

Styling Products -Living Proof - Straight Making No Frizz Styling Cream for Medium to Thick

This product did not stand up to the test of real life. I have medium-wavy hair which frizzes in humidity and I really was hoping this would be the "miracle" the website and all the press said it would be. I used the straight cream as that what is recommended on the website for those who don't want the extra hold of the wave products. Granted, after putting it in my hair I could step outside in the humidity without my hair going crazy. However, once I started actually doing things like walking the rain, getting on a bus, going in and out of buildings, basically exposing my hair to different body temps and different environmental temps, well my hair got all frizzy. I tried the product several different days, but the results never got better. (We have had a week of rainy/humid weather with dewpoints in the 50s so this product was really put to the test.) And I used a generous amount as suggested. This is no better then any silicone serum when put to the day to day test. And for the price and the amount you have to use, it is expensive. (And I am willing to pay for products that work having used Kerastase, Aveda, Bumble and Bumble etc..) But at least with them you do not have to use a lot of product each time. Note: I also tired the wave spray just to see if it was any different. Same results. And both products irritated my scalp. Everything went back to Sephora.
