TIGI

This is a finishing smoothing creme to use after heat styling; blowdrying, flat ironing, curling. It makes hair glossy and soft, tames frizz and fly-aways. It has no ability to set hair like a hairspray or gel, but keeps it moveable and alive. It will relax big curls a little and make frizzy natural curls more defined and tidy. When I had a short bob haircut I would use this after flat ironing and it would make my hair like a shiny sleek helmet (in the most stylish sense). It also smells divine which is one of the reasons I keep purchasing this over similar products. I'm not too fond of the pump packaging, because I find that too much product comes out with one pump, so I have to stop halfways in order to not get too much product. The bulky lid annoys me as I travel a lot and I want as little waste of space in my hand luggage as possible. I have no idea how many times I've repurchased over the years, but I've used it for 7 years and will keep repurchasing.

This gets 1 star for the misogynistic name. Dumb Blonde? I'm sure that name was funny to the marketing man who came up with it in like twenty years ago but c'mon guys! It's 2019! Why do I want to purchase something with a name that is a stereotype that has held me back my whole life.

I have very dry, colour treated hair. This is just not enough for me and it feels not as nourished as I had expected. I think it's on the same level as drug store brands to be honest but it smells nice. If you have slightly dry hair it could be ok but if you need something that's really going to hydrate and repair this is not it.
