Great product
The mask comes in a sleek white container. A rich, creamy formula that feels lightweight but concentrated. Right away, the scent stands out: it's subtly sweet, and clean.The texture of the mask is thick enough to coat each strand but not so heavy that it weighs hair down. It applies smoothly, almost...

Not as great as I had hoped
As an Olaplex obsessed girly, I really wanted to love this hair mask. But upon application the way that it feels going on to my hair is just horrible if I'm being honest.

It makes my hair super shiny and alive
It's pretty good
Hair Type Very Curly Hair
I do like this mask but it doesn't replace my Amika or Wella mask. It doesn't have enough slip for my hair needs. Overall it's good not great


Bye bye frizz
I have curly hair and live in a humid area, but thid product knocked the frizz out of my hair enough for me to do a beautiful blowout. Im amazed.
Left my hair worse, not better.
I purchased this after talking with an Ulta employee looking for something to help with my very dry ends. I followed instructions but was left with a frizzy mess to what is normally straight hair. It may be good for some hair but once and done for me. I'll be returning it.
Very drying
I used the no 8 for years before it was discontinued, figured I would try this out, thinking it was comparable but just repackaged. After using this for a few weeks and not being able to figure out what was drying out my hair with no other changes to my routine, I tried this on one side and no 8 on the other side. The no 8 side left me with healthy shiny hair, my 2c waves were soft and frizz free. The side with this mask felt dry, lacked shine, and looked frizzy. Its pretty shocking how bad this is, especially when it's market as a heavy moisturizing mask. I hate when companies change a good thing, no 8 was amazing and I hope they bring it back.
