Ok for thin fine hair easily weighed down? I used to use this as a teenager but I don't remember what it used to use it for I think it was just the best thing for frizz out there in the 90s or early 2000s? That was at least affordable to me and that was a stretch on affordable.

Q
Is this product paraben free?
Asked by Denise
Official Answer By Sebastian
No it is not and this is why. Parabens are ingredients known as preservatives that protect products against the growth of bacteria, fungi and yeast. Parabens are widely used in virtually all product categories. Parabens derived from para-hydroxybenzoic acid. Alternatively, PHBA which occurs naturally in many fruits and vegetables. Parabens have been safely used in products for over 100-years. The parabens used in cosmetics are identical to those found in nature. Your body quickly changes parabens to natural PHBA and eliminates them. Parabens are permitted for use by government agencies across the globe. Was this answer helpful to you

Been using this for years!

Potion 9 is the greatest hair product. If you brush your hair, it has light hold, smooths hair, smells great, and makes your hair look healthy and shiny. If you just lightly brush your hair after applying, the hold is stronger.

Started using this over 10 years ago and have tried other products but always come back to this OG. I like to lightly disperse it thru wet-to-damp hair and air dry when I don't want to spend too much time on my hair. I have the mini for travel too.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
