Alberto VO5 Smoothly Does it

With this product ,less is more, using too much would make your hair look greasy and weigh it down .with that said,I use a tiny amount on damp hair and proceed to heat style. The difference is definitely noticeable, my hair looks straighter,sleeker and my split ends barely visible. My hair stayed this way till the next wash so that's very impressive. I love that it doesn't leave my hair feeling stiff like most heat styling products . A worthwhile purchase.

Possibly my least favourite hair product! Used a small amount at first feel it was tacky, abit like gel. I assumed the heat of hair dryer would help. NOT! After drying my hair felt stiff and greasy. Not pleasant at all. Tried flat ironing a small section and I looked like I'd been swimming in a swamp. Waste of my R60.00! Also I didn't like the smell.

I noticed this because of its pink packaging and I quite like VO5 products. I spotted it at Checkers and it was priced at R59,99 and I thought that was a bit much for a 75ml tube. So I headed to Clicks and found it priced at R44,95. I decided to buy it (despite that little voice saying "what if its even cheaper elsewhere??).

Anyway, lesson being that its always best to compare prices.

I like this product because of the 2 in 1 benefits: Heat defence and Straightening Balm. I squeezed the product onto my palms and applied it to my hair when it was damp. It has a pleasant smell. It tamed my flyaways and gave my hair a glossy finish. My ends didn't feel dry, as it usually does after styling.

I like this product. There's also a shampoo and conditioner in the range called "Gloss me Smoothly", would definitely try it in conjunction with this product to see the results.
