I bought this Conditioner for the first time last week. I have used it 3 times so far and I just love it! I color my hair, which leaves it slightly dry, and this makes my hair feel great! Very moisturizing and the smell is wonderful! I have wavy hair and this does not weigh my waves down, which is hard to find in a moisturizing conditioner. A definite repeat buy.

Treatments -Aphogee - Two-Step Protein Treatment (formerly Treatment for Damaged Hair)

I bought the single-use package to try out after reading the great reviews here and on the Hair Board. My hair is not particularly damaged, but I do color it and use heat styling, so it can be dry and I get a few split ends. The Step 1 packet is so horribly smelly when you apply it, but it subsides a bit as it dries. I applied the Step 1 packet after shampooing and used a blow dryer on it for about 10 minutes. My hair became very hard, like cement, just like the packet and reviews said it would. I left the Step 1 on for about 30 minutes after blow drying. After 30 minutes, I went into the shower and just let the water loosen my hair and rinse out the product. I did not touch it until I could feel that most of the product was out. I continued to rinse for another 5 minutes or so, then applied the Step 2 Conditioning packet. I left that on for about 30 minutes and rinsed. Styled my hair like usual. I did not really see any improvement in my hair, but the smell was overwhelming! Like a little old lady fresh out of the hairdresser. I could barely sleep - the smell was so bad. I wanted to wait a couple of days before I washed my hair again, but the smell won out and I washed it again today. There is still a faint aroma, but it is much better. I even had to wash my pillowcase because it smelled like the product. I do not really see any difference in my hair. Maybe it is because it is not very damaged. I won't be buying this product again.

Hair Styling Tools -Revlon - RV544 Tourmaline Ionic Hairdryer
rated 1 of 5

This is honestly the WORST hairdryer I have ever owned!!! There are 2 heat settings - Warm and Hot. Neither of them get very hot and I need HEAT to straighten my hair. The Cold button does get cold, which is nice. There are 2 speeds - Slow and Fast. Slow is way too slow to do anything of value. It is lightweight and somewhat quiet, those are the only 2 positives I can find. I wasted $30 on this thing and cannot return it since I threw out the box accidentally. :(

First time using this product! I am on Day 5 of my pedicure and not a single chip. I have not used a base coat or a topcoat either, just 2 coats of color. Very, very deep brown color - almost black. Nice and shiney too. I really like this color.

Hair Color -Revlon - Colorsilk in Brown Black

I have been using this product for about 8 months now - every 3 weeks or so. I have used almost all of the other drugstore brands in the past, but I like this one the best right now. I tried it initially because I wanted to stop lightening my hair - my natural color is a dark brunette. I was coloring to a medium ash blonde and I wanted a drastic change - a very, very dark brown/almost black. Loved the color on the box! This product worked great for completely covering my old blonde color and the shiny silver grays. It doesn't dry my hair as much as some of the others brands I've tried and doesn't fade nearly as fast. I wish they would give you more conditioner - maybe 1.5 times what they have now. My hair is super thick and sucks it right up. That's the only negative I have. I can't see myself switching away from this product.

Hair -Moroccanoil - Moroccan Oil

This is my first review, but I just had to comment on this product! I used it for the first time today and it is AMAZING - what a difference it has made in my hair after just one use! And it is supposed to get better and better each time you use it? YAY! My hair is just-above-shoulder-length, color treated, super thick, and wavy. Usually a fight to straighten and very dry lately. I used about a nickel-sized dollup of the oil after towel drying and then let my hair air dry for about an hour. It air dried quicker than normal (usually 1.5 - 2 hours), and blow-dried in half the time. The brush went thru my hair like butter and did not fight me at all. The only downside was the glass bottle and the fact that you have to pour it out into your hand. A plastic bottle would be better and maybe a squirt cap or a pump. And the price - YIKES - but worth it!!! I love this product!!
