Product Review: Frizz-Ease Hair Serum

Name of Product: John Frieda Frizz-Ease Hair Serum Extra Strength Formula

Price: $10

Key Benefits:
*Helps keep hair from getting frizzy.
*Helps hair styles achieved through heat (i.e. flat iron, curling iron) last longer.
*Helps prevent curly wash-and-go styles from turning into huge afros by the end of the day.

Product Disadvantages:
*It's slimy.
*It is most effective if you use it on wet hair. If you forget to put it on while you're hair is wet, then you're screwed.
*It's expensive. You only get 1.69 ounces for $10.00.
*You have to use a lot more than the directions suggest.
*Needs to be used with another product when blow-drying (i.e. oil, hair moisturizer) in order to weigh hair down.

How to Use (John Frieda's directions): Use after shampooing and conditioning on WET or TOWEL-DRIED HAIR. Use sparingly by dispensing a dime-size amount of serum into palms. Rub hands together and distribute evenly throughout the hair. Use more or less depending on hair length and thickness. Do not rinse out.

How to Use (Stacy's directions): Shampoo and condition hair. Towel-dry your hair. Apply a hair moisturizer or oil to your hair. Then pump five squirts (or more) of the hair serum into your hands. Then blow-dry and style as usual. If you are wearing "wash and go hair, then shampoo and condition your hair, don't towel-dry it, use a hair oil, and then add some type of product that will hold your hair in place (i.e. light gel, pomade, mousse).

I was a big fan of John Frieda's Frizz-Ease mousse, so I thought I'd try the hair serum as well for my "wash and go" days. I agree with you; it's slimy and it takes more than a coin-sized amount to work through long, curly hair.

I love this site and I look forward to purchasing your booklet!
