Not for curly hair… at all

Finally!!!
in my late 30s, my hair has changed and I feel like I've had to start from scratch. Pureology has always been my favorite brand. When i can afford it. I have fine, thin, dry hair. i'm trying to grow it out and I think with this product I will be able to. I can finally wear my hair down without it, getting stuck to my face and breaking.
Perfect for cropped textire
Hair Type Straight Hair
I have very fine, very thick, very short hair. It is very difficult to find a stying product that adds texture, does not weigh hair down, and does not add too much volume. This product, worked through towel dried hair, works perfectly. I have control, texture, and a tousled, natural look, with no greasiness. I can't say that it smells great, but the scent is very subtle, and does not trigger my allergies.

I waa introduced to this product from my Hair Stylist. I live in Florida and this is a great product, for me, to help with hair that can get frizzy days, especially during Florida's Summer Season.

This is great! It took me a couple of tries before perfecting, but I found that blowing out my hair after applying this to my roots. and using Velcro hair rollers after, my hair is bouncy and full of volume! It also smells great!
