Pamper your skin with the cream of the tropics Nov 21, 2006

reviewer: Jenny W. from Glen Alpine, NC 28761
|
| I just tried a package duo of
the Creative Scentsations
Mango & Coconut Hand & Body
Wash as well as the lotion
last week and after enjoying
them several times, wanted to
pass along my pleasure with
this blend. The Body Wash is
ideal for the shower as it
foams up very rich and leaves
such a nice scent on the skin,
with a very ultra clean feel.
The lotion likewise was very
pleasant when applied after
bath or shower, and left a
delicate soothing sensation on
my sensitive skin and was
absorbed quickly, leaving a
soft creamy feel and tropical
coconut aroma. The products
presentation was very nice in
of itself, as my own came in a
clear plastic drawstring bag
tied at the top with a sage
green cord and came along with
a cd of "Sentscational Moods".
Although I am unsure of its
current availability as a set,
either product would make a
lovely pampering gift to
oneself or a very thoughtful
Christmas gift for either a
Heart Sister at your place of
worship or for a business
associate or friend. |

Vitamin supplement for your hair and nails Oct 27, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28761
|
| Since we take vitamins for our
organ health and general
longevity, it makes sense that
some nutrients are responsible
for healthy hair and nails.
Having been using this for
about a month now, an oral
liquid, I find that nail
ridges that had started
several years ago, have
lessened quite a bit. More
than 15 years ago, my Dad held
the belief that wild yams were
the scientific breakthrough
for skin problems, so I am not
surprised that a supplement is
now readily available. I have
also used a skin cream that
was made from wild yams and
was very good. Since this new
oral product would provide a
one stop treatment for my
hair, skin and nails, it fit
my needs better and saves
time. My hair, being generally
healthy anyway, does seem to
maintain top shine and bounce
back since taking the product,
which I have read is a good
sign of the density of the
hair shaft and its overall
strength. The co-enzyme Q-10
in the product is perfect to
provide maintenance, from
within, for both hair and
nails. |

Gentle cleansing for normal hair every day Oct 20, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28761
|
| A very gentle shampoo meant
for ordinary hair types with
no special needs, the ISO
Daily Cleanse is perfect for
use in warmer months or times
when one has been outdoors or
in areas that have
invironmental issues which
makes daily hair washing a
must. Safe for use on
childrens finer and lighter
textured hair or for adults of
all ages, it gives a really
nice clean feel and very
ultra-light scent after
shampooing. Normally I only
need to shampoo my hair every
fourth day or even longer, as
my hair is very healthy, and
really neither oily nor dry.
However, occasionally, due to
being in heavy traffic or in
smoke filled rooms throughout
the day, I want a really good
cleansing shampoo that is very
gentle and safe to use daily.
This is one of ISOs older
original products, just
updated for the newer, more
stylish packaging, renamed a
more catchy title, but
containing the same quality
ingredients we have come to
depend on. Higher in price
than most daily shampoos, but
a quality product overall. |

Nice medium hold for short hair or finishing touch Oct 20, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28761
|
| I was very disappointed to
find that this product has
been discontinued as I kept it
on hand for use only around my
face for holding my hair with
a small self-braided hair
cross band. Usually I can not
use most styling products as
they cause some allergic
reactions if gotten near my
forehead, but this one seems
to be different, if used
sparingly. The ISO
Multiplicity Disciplining
Smoothing Gel also does not
show up as a fine flake or
white powder after drying
throughout the day, which many
such products do. My son, who
has short dark hair, loved
this as the packaging was very
vogue, non-gender specific and
he felt it kept the front of
his hair in place without the
obvious stiffness, over-sheen
of many gel styling aids. We
also noted that this gel did
not cause any itching around
his face or forehead, either,
as he has many of the same
skin sensitivity problems as I
suffer from. One of the few
styling or texturizing
products I have ever used, I
would rate this one highly for
either sex. |

Icy Tingle clean and shine for bouncy fresh hair Oct 20, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28761
|
| A very refreshing shampoo
containing peppermint and
menthol, both of which are
really good for the scalp and
provide an invigorating super
cleansing experience for hair.
A nice clear shampoo, the
Graham Webb Ice Cap also
contains an ingredient called
Thermacore Complex, which
promises to leave your hair
silky soft and maneagable. I
was impressed that it does
indeed do both and also gave
my hair some extra added
bounce and life. The bottle
says the added ingredient is
heat activated, so I used an
ion type dryer after gentle
towel drying, and my hair came
out very nice and smooth, with
a lots of body. The scent of
peppermint remained in my hair
but only to a small degree,
and my hair smelled very clean
and fresh, as well. The
product seemed to provide
maximum hydration and a
healthier feel to the ends,
especially. My scalp felt very
cool and super clean with no
flaking or stinging. This
product is a tad expensive for
the small size, but well worth
the extra spent for a quality
product. |

Ultra texturizing shampoo, healthy, glossy look Oct 19, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28761
|
The ISO line of hair care is
truly a salon type product and
is difficult to find in
conventional stores, so I am
pleased this site is now
carrying a full range. I
purchased two of the
shampoos
and conditioners previously,
each formulated specifically
for different purposes, and
will review this one, which I
have used twice so far, with
really good results. This
shampoo cleanses really well,
rinses completely, leaving
no
stickiness or product residue,
and afer blow drying, my hair
appeared smooth, soft and
glossy, without the need to
use detangler or smoothing
cream. My hair felt more
hydrated, with a very nice
texture, and satiny to the
touch. You can follow the
shampoo with a conditioner in
the same line, however, if
youfeel the need. The product
has a nice clean scent, not
chemical nor perfumed, but
just very fresh and ultra
clean. I especially liked how
smooth the ends of my hair
appeared, and after styling,
my hair had a nice sheen and a
healthy look. Pricey, but very
good. |

Natural disinfectant hand soap with a minty fresh feel Oct 19, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28761
|
Having been using several
products containing melaleuca,
which is very healing and
beneficial to the skin, I
recently found out that the
source for melaleuca is
actually the same as oil of
tea tree. I purchased the Paul
Mitchell Special Hand Soap a
few weeks ago and have been
very pleased, as tea tree oil
is touted as a natural
antiseptic, antibacterial, and
germicide, which makes it just
the thing to have next to the
bath or kitchen sink. This
product has the added bonus of
oil of peppermint, which gives
it an invigorating smell and
feel and is also very cooling.
Tea tree oil is especially
good for excema and other skin
problems and I have previously
used it for the sting and itch
from bug bites, so the soap
can be beneficial to those
with skin problems such as
these and it does not sting on
nicks or cuts. It also does
not dry out my skin nor make
it prone to flaking as many
soaps do. The packaging needs
a more bright, updated look,
however the product itself is
excellent.

Normalizing shampoo leaves hair fresh and balanced Sep 30, 2006

reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28806
|
| I thought I was through with
my reviews as I had run out of
products that I had actually
tried and had a clear
impression of, however, I
noticed a bottle of this
shampoo sitting on the side of
my tub along with four or five
others so I came back to the
site to give one last review,
since this is a very nice
quality shampoo and deserves
some praise from a regular
user. I have to admit I
purchased it with a GC I was
given to use on another site,
which sells it at a much
higher price than this one,
however I was pleased with the
quality of the shampoo and the
benefits it provided,
regardless of price. The type
I have is for normal to oily
hair. My hair is actually very
normal overall but this
shampoo seemed to do a very
good job being rotated along
with my other regulars. It has
a nice very clean non-flowery
scent, rinses well and seemed
to take away build-up and
leave my hair very soft and
with a healthy shine and feel,
especially on the ends where
the hair is older and less
healthy. |

Pear scented with added softness and moisture! Sep 30, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28806
|
| I purchased this product both
for the scent and the added
claim that it softens and adds
mosisture to the hair. I just
tried the shampoo last night
and loved the pear scent first
of all. Cleansed my hair
extremely well with just one
shampoo and since I have lots
of long hair, I was surprised
that it did not take much for
my hair to feel really squeaky
clean and the product rinsed
out quite easily. I blow dried
my hair using an ion dryer and
was really pleased with how
soft and lush my hair felt and
looked, very fluffy but
without any frizzing. Only a
small amount of the pear scent
remained, but enough that this
morning my hair still had a
nice fresh smell and still the
softness and healthy feel was
evident and my hair combed
through easily without having
to use any detangler. I like
the added bonus that this is a
more healthy shampoo with
vitamins for your hair and it
adds some much needed
moisture, softness, and shine
without leaving the hair with
the feel of any product left
behind. |

Nice fullness and color with less smudge and feathering Sep 20, 2006

reviewer: Jenny W. from Kelowna, BC, AL 0

Being accustomed to using a
pencil liner, I was
surprised
and pleased that this
product
did help a lot with the
smudging and feathering so
common with most lipsticks,
even when you line first,
especially if you are no
longer young, you talk quite
a
bit, or you smoke or chew
your
lips when absent minded. I
also liked that my lips
seemed
more shapely as Ive long
thought my lip line was
fading
and this product did indeed
make my lips appear
slightly
plumper and softer,
especially
if used not just as a liner
but as your actually lip
color
as well. The feel and taste
were also nice and it
lasted
throughout half the day and
only had to be replenished
after dining. They offer a
full tint range and for
young
middle aged or mature women
the softer and darker tones
are appreciated, and the
product makes the lips
appear
younger and with less fine
lip
lines and harshness. The
price
is very reasonable as well,
considering the quality
ingredients found here, and
the over all effacy of the
product. |

Tea tree oil soap leaves skin soothed and comforted! Sep 20, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Kelowna, BC, AL 0
|
| I have some skin sensitivity
problems and my
daughter-in-law is a big fan
of products containing tea
tree oil so, as this sounded
interesting, I bought it to
try. I really liked the clean
scent, although very different
from most soaps scents, and it
lathered well and rinsed
clean. I have small psoriasis
patches occasionally on my
legs, and sadly most standard
soaps cause some burning,
however I noticed that this
was very soothing and did not
sting at all on the irritated
skin. Although it is not
touted as a remedy for
psoriasis, I was pleased that
it at least did not seem to
irritate the spots that were
so tender, and it was actually
was very pleasant feeling. I
especially liked this soap as
a shaving soap for my legs and
under arms which are also very
sensitive. It lathered well
and did not sting under my
arms. Since tea tree is known
to be so healthy for the skin
and many skin problems, this
soap is especially good for
travel as it packs well,is
light weight, and soothes
weary skin. |

For the straightest hair no matter how you dry it! Sep 20, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28806
|
| This product is a very nice
addition to the hair care
stash of anyone with long hair
who occasionally is in a hurry
or too tired and just leaves
their hair to air dry instead
of spending time with their
dryer or styling tool. Most
products, either shampoos or
treatments to make the hair
temporarily straight, do not
work quite as well unless you
use a blow dryer, at least
thats my own personal
experience. My hair is mostly
straight but has a tendency to
a slight wave on the ends and
also to get frizzy if I air
dry it. This shampoo is a
really nice answer to those
problems, while still
cleansing the hair very well
with just one shampoo, rinsing
easily, and with none of that
slick or sticky feel so often
remaining after using a
product to temporarily
straighten the hair. The smell
is also nice, rather a very
clean non-offensive
non-chemical scent and my hair
had a really pretty shine and
still showed enough body and
bounce not to look flat or
lifeless while still being
sleek and straight. |

Conditions instantly and detangles too! Sep 20, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28806
|
| I really think highly of
Nioxin Creatives Bliss as I am
rather lazy about conditioning
and since my hair is in good
shape for the most part, its
easy to forget regular
maintenance needed to keep my
hair healthy and looking its
best. I love that Bliss works
instantly and does not require
me to wait on it, or to sit
around with a towel on my head
while it absorbs and works its
magic! The added bonus of a
detangling agent makes this
one of those products everyone
should have in their hair care
arsenal. My hair had no
discernable after-odor, which
is really common and one of
the drawbacks of detanglers in
general. My hair looks really
nice if I use this once a
week, or even every fortnight.
It left a nice shine and
texture to the hair, and my
hair was very manageable and
easy to style. The higher
quality ingredients that the
Nioxin line is known for is
apparent in this product,
especially, and since it is
good for your hair and also
has other benefits, it makes
this product highly rated. |

Prime shine and control of wisps Sep 20, 2006

reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28806
|
| 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. |

Leaves dark hair looking its natural best Sep 19, 2006

A very nice shampoo for
darker
hair, and not necessarily
hair
that is color treated. My
own
hair is naturally the
darkest
of browns, almost black, in
fact, my being of Native
American descent. I tried
this
shampoo as I wanted
something that was
specifically formulated for
darker shades of hair, and
not
exclusively for chemically
color treated hair, one
that
would protect my natural
color
and keep it from fading
with
time and age, if that is
humanly possible. I liked
how
my hair felt after
shampooing
with the product and blow
drying. My tip ends have a
tendency to fade out as my
hair grows and this shampoo
seemed to keep this in
check
more each time I used it.
It
gave a nice sheen to my
hair
without any reddish or
lighter
brown highlights being
apparent and accentuated
the
dark richness of the way my
hair looks when it is in
best condition. A nice
all-around shampoo for
those
who want to prolong or
protect the rich color of
younger looking darker hair. |

Gives even heavy long hair a real boost in body and fullness Sep 19, 2006

One of my former tax
clients
who owns a salon gave me a
full sized bottle of this
very
recently to try. She was
impressed with its quality
and
was thinking of carrying
the
Tigi line in her shop. I
tried
the shampoo just this week
and
was really surprised and
pleased at how full and
bouncy
my hair looked. The effect
surprisingly was still
apparent the next morning
after sleeping on my hair,
even though I never roll my
hair as I prefer a rather
straight style. I have a
friend who has very fine,
lank
hair that nothing seems to
help boost although shes
tried a range of products,
and
I sent her a note about how
impressed I was with this
shampoo. It left no
discernable product residue
but seemed more to affect
the
weight of the hair making
it
feel softer, but at the
same
time with much more bounce,
lift and body. Although I
usually wear my long hair in
a
braid, I will save this
shampoo for use when
wearing
my hair down loose as it
did
indeed add a lot of
fullness
to my very thick heavy hair. |

Excellent quality ingredients/nice texture to hair Sep 19, 2006

reviewer: Jenny W. from Muncie, IN 47302

Frankly, if I had rated or
reviewed this product from
my
first use, I would have
given
it a negative as my hair
did
not appear clean after
using
it and it also had an
obvious
dullness. However, since it
was rather expensive for a
shampoo, I decided that
since
I have a very full head of
thick long hair to give it
a
second chance as perhaps I
had
not used a sufficient
quantity
to get my hair really clean
by
making sure all the hair
was
being treated and
shampooed.
The second use changed my
mind
completely as the product
when
used in about two quarter
sized amounts, did a very
nice
job on my hair, leaving it
very silky and soft and the
texture was especially nice.
I
could discern no coating
left
on the hair so evidently
the
product ingredient that
protects and moisturizes is
absorbed by the hair, which
would seem to me the ideal
for
what one wants in a shampoo
that contains added
protection. An excellent
quality shampoo for those
seeking some remedy for
tired,
abused, or overtreated hair. |

Adds body but not heavy feel Sep 19, 2006

reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28806
|
| Since I buy quite a bit of the
Redken line of hair care
products, I was interested in
trying this one since my hair
is very heavy,long, and seems
to pull down any attempts at
fullness. This product worked
quite well, in my opinion, and
was better than many of the
other brand name shampoos that
have a body boost claim, as it
did not seem to coat my hair
with any discernible product
residue for the additional
body promised. It worked
equally well with natural air
drying or with a blow dryer,
and did not seem to leave any
stickiness or dulling film and
was one of the few I have
tried that does not have any
detectable smell of the
product itself left behind in
the hair. It did require
double shampooing to produce a
really squeaky clean feel to
my hair, but I do have more
and much longer hair than most
and double shampoos are not
that uncommon for me. The
shine was good, although not
as much so as shampoos without
body boosting ingredients. I
was still impressed with the
product overall. |

| This product is expensive but

love the product contains
vitamin E as it has long been

complex vitamins have been

enviornmental damage and many
actually protect against
further damage and address
roughness and uneven skin tone
that comes from the smog and
changes in temperature, and
from make up products
containing chemicals that are
hard on the skin. This product
was suprisingly gentle on my
overly sensitive skin,
especially the under eye area
and neck and cheeks. It also
works well if used as a
make-up base as I felt my
foundation went on smoother
and did not dry my skin as
much as usual while using this
rpoduct. Very nice unoffensive
scent, also, and my cheeks
were much less red and overall
skin tone was more firm, but
softer, and healthier looking.

I really liked this product
to

It
works particularly well
with
an ion type hair dryer and
gives my hair a very nice
sheen without any

my

and
the style seemed to last
without losing its benefits

Nice slight added volume
with
some additional smoothing
effects, as well. I chose
not
to use detangler before
using
and this product seemed to
help removing some of the
fuzz
and tangles and helped my
hair
dry in a nice straight
curve
without waves. I do not use
hair srays or gels as they
build up on my hair and
make
my hair stiff, but this
product seemed to be more
the
type a woman who likes a
simple straight or more
natural style would use
regularly. Nice shine

does with standard
conditioners. Just mist and it
is an almost instant way to
hydrate and give your hair the
added boost it needs to stay
healthy. Did not leave a
sticky film, which many
products do and does not seem
to build up on the hair or
make hair appear dull. Left my
hair shiney and very easy to
manage. I am mostly a lazy
person who does not like to
set aside time for hair
maintenance especially when it
comes to conditioning my hair
so this was perfect for me. |

does not make the hair stiff

Worked particularly well on

This detangler works well
for
long, thick hair and your
brush or comb runs right
through the hair without
pulling or yanking. I did
not
really care for the Kiwi
scent, but it is not
terribly overpowering and the
product
did not leave the hair
sticky
as many detanglers do. A
good
product to add to the line
if
you are using other Artec
Kiwi shampoos or
conditioners
as they seem to work better
when used as a regimen. The
price is slightly high for a
simple
detangling product but I
found
this one to be beneficial
for
the hair ends as it smooths
long hair, as well as
detangling, meaning less
frizz

Tigi Vitamin Rich formulation Sep 17, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28806

This is my favorite of the
Tigi Bed head shampoos
although its price is a little
high for regular use. I
received a full size bottle
from a promotion and became a
fan of its rich ingredients,
all so very good for your
hair. This one is filled with
the vitamins that hair needs
and it is formulated to
provide protection from the
elements and drench your hair
with nourishment by
penetrating the hair shaft,
unlike most hair products
which merely coat the hair.
This has a nice neutral
scent without any chemical or
perfume smell and cleanses
deeply, yet leaving the hair
still conditioned without any
build up or without
dullness. It made my hair very
soft and
smooth, but full of lost body,
and seemed to
revitalize it. One of the
best, if not THE best of the
vitamin intensive shampoos on
the market today. I use it
especially during months
when its dry and I am indoors
in aritficially heated areas
as it seems to balance my
hairs natural moisture and
leave it healthier looking. |

Honeysuckle and Pink Grapefruit Sep 17, 2006

reviewer: Jenny W. from Near Asheville, NC 28806

I have this in a wicker
bath
basket in my bathroom, but
I
actually secretly hope no
one
uses it but me, even
guests.
It is a very delightful
product, the scent very
different and the
honeysuckle
reminds me of growing up in
the South. The addition of
the
pink grapefruit makes this
unique and gives it a
slight
touch of tangy citrus aroma
backnotes. It sounds like it
was
formulated just for the
younger woman but it works
well for all age groups and
is
an almost unisex product,
although men would likely
shy away from the
honeysuckle
products lines. The effacy
of
the product itself is high,
as
my skin feels very nice and
fresh after using this. I
would have rated it ten
stars
if possible as it is one of
the more fun, yet high
quality, good for your
skin,
product lines and very
reasonably priced for its
type.
The packaging is also very
cute. I use a natural
perfume
oil called Sunshine that
smells similar,
so this product allows me to
use both
without conflict |

Tigi lip gloss Sep 17, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Anytown, AT 55555

I purchased this mainly for
the color choice as it was
the
first I had seen that was in
a
darker hued range, not
matte,
but not too shiney.
However,
although it conditions the
lips well, looks really
good,
without an unpleasant feel
nor
taste, it does bleed or
feather around the edges of
your lips, even when using
a
lip liner prior to applying.
I
rated it less, due to this
flaw, which could perhaps be
a
fault of my body chemistry
or
smoking, or both. However,
I
have used other brand lip
products, both glosses as
well
as lipsticks that performed
better as far as not
feathering or bleeding
outword
off the natural lip line.
It
does stay well, and the
color
holds true, and the shade
was
a really good choice for my
skin tone, however the
drawback of feathering on
not-so-young lips outweighs
its good qualities as a
regularly used product.
Tigi
makes wonderful quality
products, however I was not
overly impressed with this
one. |

Tigi Dream Orange is a Delight Sep 17, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Anytown, AT 55555
|
| I purchased this product
originally as a gift for a
friend, and also my employer,
but decided to use it myself
and I am very glad I did. My
only regret is in not buying
the Orange body lotion at the
same time. I love this,
however, as it smells just
great and has a very nice
clean scent, without any
flowery overtones or soap
smell, just a rich orange
citrus orchard aroma with an
undertone of spice. It left my
skin nice and clean but with a
softness unusual in shower or
bath products and rinsed off
extremely well. I have a
tendency to itch immediately
after a bath or shower,
usually from products that
leave a residue or film of
cleanser on the skin, but this
was not the case. My skin felt
soft and clean with no
irritation whatever. I really
enjoyed the scent of orange in
particular and hope they will
introduce a pineapple to the
line of Dream bath and shower
products. The Dream Orange has
a very invigorating and
energizing feel and scent
which is nice and different. |

Solar Butter is perfect for hands and cuticles Sep 17, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Anytown, AT 55555
|
| This is my favorite of hand
creams/butters and for use as
a cuticle butter or balm. I
prefer a thick hand cream and
find that balms and butters
work into my hands and fingers
better without leaving them
slick and oily feeling. This
one I love because it seems to
last longer than most and does
not require repeated
applications for your hands to
stay soft and soothed and
silky to the touch. I also use
it during my manicure as it
softens cuticles and also
makes the knuckles of the
hands feel less dry. It
likewise works well for a
pedicure cream and seems to
make heels less prone to
dryness and flaking so common
during the winter or summer
months. The slight sweet
almond smell is really lovely
and reminds me of old
fashioned creams like my
mother used, but with the
added vitamins found by
research to be so important in
maintaining healthy skin for
todays modern woman. |

Smooth and straightens slighly wavy/curly hair Sep 17, 2006
|
reviewer: Jenny W. from Anytown, AT 55555

I really liked this product
due to it not being full of
chemicals. It is a more
natural
alternative to the standard
offerings for temporary
hair
straighteners. I have not
found many of any kind that
work well for more than a
few
hours, but this one seems
to
be an exception, leaving my
hair still straight after
working all day in an
office.
I like the idea much better
of
botanicals and natural type
products on my hair as I
feel
they shampoo out easier and
do
not leave a residue which
damages the hair ends and
shaft. It worked well
smoothing out both the
natural
wave in my hair, as well as
the slight curl at the ends
which usually just frizzes.
If
you have very very long
hair
which you prefer to wear
straight but tends to wave
or
curl just slightly, this
product provides a light
and
temporary solution without
using chemicals, sprays or
gels. |
