I purchased this product on
the recommendation of a friend
who is of African American
descent who does wonderful
french braids and really knows
hair care products, both for
ethnic or caucasian hair. I am
of Natice American Heritage
and although my hair is fairly
straight and very long, I wear
my hair in a long french or
fish bone braid and have a
tendency to have flyaway wisps
of hair around my face after
the braid has been in all day.
She told me this product
worked well on all hair types
to hold the hair in place that
is slightly shorter or finer
around the temples or on the
braid itself. I really love
the product to use when
outdoors in fall weather as it
does keep the wisps and loose
hair in place, gives a very
nice shine to the hair while
not leaving it at all sticky
or stiff like a holding
product normally does. It only
requires a small amount, which
I apply to my fingers while
pulling through the hair and
braiding, and then patting
lightly onto hair around my
temples and top.
I like this product since I
have short hair and some parts
around my check bones like to
stick out instead of lying
flat. So I tried this product
from a friend and it worked
great. Not to heavy but just
right for a girls day out.
I used to use the Artec
Purehair Grapeseed Finish and
when they discontinued making
it I switched to this product.
I found it to be perfect for
what I need it for. It stops
my flyaways and make my hair
shiny but not sticky. The
smell is not too strong and it
washes out easily. I will
continue to buy this,
hopefully they won't stop
making it!
