Good and much cheaper than Phyto Defrissant January 29, 2007 Louie's Mom (Dallas) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I have always liked the Phyto straightening balm but have felt it is overpriced for what it is. I tried this Alterna product and am switching to it. It works just as well for me on reducing frizziness and generally smoothing my hair, and costs less.
great product April 11, 2009 Melissa Smith 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This product is great for thick hair that frizzes. It gives a great soft sleek look to the hair.
When applied properly... June 27, 2009 Jane Lane™ (Cali baby) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I agree that it is very pricey, but then again there's that classic saying, "you get what you pay for" and thats usually the case more often than not. I don't own it myself, but I have used it. The first time my stylist used it on me (how I found out about it). She did exactly as the instructions indicated above. And my hair was ridicuously straight once she straightened it. Yes I know that a professional was using it so of course it looked good. But really, the only difference from her using it on me and me using it on myself is that she can see my head evenly from all angles and is taking her time. All you need is the time and patience to properly follow the instructions to gain maximum look (if your hair is abundant and as thick as mine). If you are in a hurry, or are lazy, this probably isn't for you since you more than likely not be getting your full results unless you know how to style hair quickly and effeciantly. If your are drying your hair in layers from the bottom up, you shouldn't be having a problem.
Unless you have exhausted all your options to tame your hair, I'd suggest just sticking to something cheaper since you could still get similar results if you can find the right brand.
Hemp is fantastic! October 21, 2009 Wils (New York) This product is really the best on the market for an all around styling gel that is also a straightening agent. Wavy and curly hair alike, no one wants frizz - this product leaves hair absolutely smooth, soft and finished looking, and it doesnt take much to get the desired effect. An excellent product.
Alterna Hemp Straightening Balm March 4, 2010 Donna Rambin I have been using this product for my unruly curly hair and it is the best I have ever found and I am not a young chick. The best part of this purchase is this price was one of the fairest I have found plus I received the item quickly. I highly recommend the product and the company I purchased it from.
