Terrific strengthening product

First off, you won't find results like this in any other product that is both a mask and only 1 minute leave-in before rinsing. I've been doing hair masks of longer duration for some time and the water running cold before it's time to rinse is a big setback for those that like to apply first while s...howering then rinse at the end. The smell is an important factor for me. I tend to prefer either unscented subtlety or just a potent but balanced favorite fragrance. With this one, I gathered a mix between the smell of salon-quality shampoo and a sort of baby powder note. Which definitely works. I didn't notice it after my hair was dry at all which is also great. Texture is another important factor for me. A lot of hair masks are super thick and even slimy, which I don't love, and if it's runny, I know it's bad news too. This one feels close to a conditioner but one that bonds to the hair rather fast without half of it ending up on my shower floor. I could also run a shower comb through and not lose a lot of product; it stayed on the comb so I could reapply it a little higher on the mids. I was a little wary that it wasn't slick but oddly, I also got a lot less tangles and breakage, noticeably so. Didn't end up with one of those clumps you have to slap against the shower wall to get off of your hand. Because of the formula here though, the rinse was easy and the results were terrific. My hair was manageable even through drying stages and it dried looking so soft and pretty with minimal frizz. I wasn't sure if that would be the case because I didn't use my usual after shower leave-in that takes care of that, just to see if this could survive not just being an extra step in my routine. This is a terrific maintenance product for hair that might be a little more brittle in the winter or a little salt or chlorine damaged in the summer. This can hold you up through seasonal transitions without needing to be done every wash, therefore avoiding the tediousness of always being an extra step. I love its subtlety yet effectiveness so I couldn't give it less than five stars personally. Nothing about it shot off any cons that could hurt my impressions here. Try it out!
