Works over time

I have very dry, damaged hair, especially the ends of my hair. My hair is also quite long and thick. I bought this product as I needed to add moisture back into my hair and bring it back from the terrible dry state. I have found that this treatment has added moisture back into my hair and it feels much softer and more manageable. My hair still feels dry, but it definitely feels softer and less dry. I have been using this product twice a week for about a month now. However, I feel like if I continue to use it it will improve the condition of my hair and restore the moisture back into it making it the silky smooth texture I want.

The consistency of this product is similar to a conditioner. I expected it to be quite thick as it is a treatment but it was thinner than I expected. I use this treatment in place of conditioner, in the ends of my hair from my ears downwards. I like to squeeze the water out of my air before apply it, then leave it in for a few minutes to soak in while I soap.

The texture is creamy and the colour is a pale yellow. It has a coconut scent to it which brings a tropical smell. Be careful not to get water inside the bottle because it cause the product to split and separate. I always shake the bottle before using as well because if the product is left sitting I find it becomes runny and lumpy in places.

My hairdresser sells this product, but I have also purchased it from shampoo n things. The bottle is a simple upside down trapezium like shaped bottle. The gold colour makes it look very indulgent and luxurious. Because the bottle sits upside down it makes it easier to squeeze it out.

Overall, I really like this product and will continue to use it as it has improved the state of my hair. Although it is expensive, I think it is worth it for the results you receive.

Tips: shake before use as the product can separate. I like to leave this b my hair for a few minutes to let the product soak in

Short term fix

I picked up this from the CS Factory sale that I went to a few months ago . I’ve always wanted to try Joico . I finally found my opportunity.

Packaging is bright in this gold tube . Consistency is creamy with a musk scent not that strong. I like to use this after I’ve washed my hair fair a deep treatment. Yes it did make my hair feel good short term. Once I stopped hair went back to normal.

Overall I thought this worked well . It’s priced at the right rate . I can see myself buying this gain.

Noticeable difference

I definitely notice the difference in my hair when I’m not using this product…my hair feels a lot dryer and more breakage. It does make your hair very shiny and does feel like it’s doing what it’s meant to do. Have gone through about 5 bottles of this in my lifetime, I love it and will continue to repurchase. It’s a great price from Chemist Warehouse!

Delicious Scent

I purchased this product on sale for $15 at the hairdressers and I was looking for a deep conditioning treatment to fix my brittle, freshly bleached locks. The first thing I noticed was the smell, it smells absolutely amazing and I can only describe it as something close to banana pudding.

The product itself is not as thick as I expected, it is slightly runny and does need a bit of a shake before use.

I left the treatment in for 5 minutes and the end result was great. My hair was a lot softer and easier to brush through with slightly less hair breakage. I ended up using this product as my daily conditioner so it did not last very long, maybe 3 weeks. All in all great product that's worth a try.

Great Product

I bought this in conjunction with the K Pak shampoo and conditioner after I had gone from black to blonde hair. This product for sure helped bring my hair back to life, it was shiny and soft again which made (at the time) the dreaded heat styling not as much of a hassle. I used it once a week after shampooing, if you are going to use this make sure you skip out on your conditioner as it will be a moisture overload. I would shampoo once then apply a good amount to my mid-lengths down and leave on for 20 minutes then rinse with cool water, rinsing with cool water seals the hair follicles which helps in my opinion keep hair more manageable and I don't have to wash as often. I don't use this product anymore as I find it to be too rich after a gave my hair a much needed waist to shoulder chop, so my hair is much healthier now and doesn't need such a concentrated product.

Restored my hair

Have always been a great fan of Joico hair products. My hair is dull from being out in the weather to much. This product restored it with 2 applications. My hair feels softer and more manageable.and certainly healthier. Would definitely use the product again and recommend it.

love this

Years ago my hair was fried. Literally fried. So much breakage. It was dry frizzy and unmanageable. A hairdresser sold me this right after she chopped off all my hair. I am continuously let down by false claims, not this time. My hair definately loved this and is much more healthier now

Tips: I used the complete range of joico, I think that helped me achieve the best results

Great as apart of the system

I enjoyed using this alongside the Kpak shampoo and conditioner. I love how it smells and felt luxurious to use. It left my hair feeling soft and more manageable (sounds cliche I know, but I don't know how else to describe it!).

Tips: I would use this as a 'deep conditioner' every second time I washed my hair.

Love for damaged hair

I purchased this after my hair was damaged at a salon while putting in highlights - the hairdresser was unsure what caused it but in the end put it down to the brand of shampoo I was using. Basically the bleach made my hair melt so I needed something to bring it back from the dead.

I did loads of searches on the internet and decided this was the best product. I love the gold tube, it’s a reasonable price for a fairly small tube, but you really only need to use it once or twice a week so it does last.

The product is a thick creamy yellow colour with a decent scent - it’s not too overpowering, but a scent that always reminds me of good hairdresser products.

I have lots and lots of long hair, but a decent sized blob covered my lengths well. After leaving it in for 5 minutes, it rinses out beautifully and leaves your hair feeling soft. Overtime this really did improve my hair and give it some strength back. This is definitely a firm staple in my hair are routine now.

Tips: Apply to damp hair and then cover with a warm towel for a more intense treatment

Weird texture but it works

I use this once every few weeks on my hair as well as the intense hydrator. This one’s protein based so overuse can make your hair brittle. I don’t really like the smell, it’s like medicine I think it’s supposed to be banana scent but it leaves my hair soft and I know it’s helping so I deal with it. I use a decent amount and let it sit for about 10 minutes fore rinsing and following with my normal conditioner to seal the cuticle.

Tips: Shampoo twice, deep conditioner and then seal with your normal conditioner. Comb wet hair, don’t brush it.
