I bought this product two weeks ago at a BOGOF sale and it was free, so I thought what the heck! I am always looking for products (serums, glosses, leave-in conditioners, etc.) to keep my human hair extensions from drying out, which is almost impossible living in the desert.

This is my first John Frieda's Shine Shock purchase and this product goes a long way. My hair hits the middle of my back and a dime size amount of product works perfect. I use this product at night, comb it through and clip it up. In the morning, the ends of my hair are so soft and tangle free (which never happens with hair extensions).

My DH has been using this too ~ he has long hair, and this product makes his curls so beautiful. I like this product and I will buy this again

I just started using this product and have followed the instructions -- even washing my hair more often than usual to achieve the 3x week prescription (my hair is dry). The product does gently and slightly color my hair, which is just starting to gray and was a bit dull, but doesn't add shine or volume. My hair was already silky, so I didn't expect or need any help there.

The main problem is that it comes off on my towels! I was afraid it would come off on clothing and bedding too, so I guess this isn't as bad as it could be. But I don't think it started out doing this. Maybe it takes a while to soak into your hair and then it starts leaving a residue of product that wasn't needed on the hair on towels and... ? .

Anyway, I was very disappointed to see the many streaks and stains on the towel. I think I may continue to use it and just dedicate a towel to the purpose, since I do like the slight boost of color it gives in an easy way (much easier than the semi-permanent colors and just as effective). BUT if I see it on my clothes or pillows, that's it!

    No matter how little of this product I used, whether my hair was wet or dry, or I straightened or left it curly my hair got very greasy and oily after using this product. It did not enhance brunette color. Your hair will be much softer and prettier without this product

          Comments about John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Shine Shock Leave-On Perfecting Glosser, 2.4 oz:

          I have started using all organic and natural products on my hair to have amazing results. I recently decided to strengthen my routine by getting a glazer that suits my hair better than just argan oil.
          Argan oil makes my wavy/straight hair sleek on the surface, but it does not penetrate my hair and make it soft like shine shock does!
          I realize this product is not organic or natural but it is free of parabens and glycol <3 it took a few times to figure out how to use it properly. after my shower I gently ring out my hair, then apply a little less than a dime in my hand and rub well all over my palms. After I apply to the shaft of my hair all the way to the ends and focus on the ends. Avoid applying on the shaft too much bc it will get a bit heavy and residue like. if you apply it sparingly and then DON'T towel dry and put ur hair up in a clip until it air dries your hair will thank you by look and feeling softer and silkier. (towel drying damages hair) This product is great :) I will buy again and ditch my argan oil. My hair feels like a tot's hair. Soft, new and shiny.

                I am 54 with straight hair. It is fine and flat. I have highly resistant gray hair, which is professionally colored each month. I tried this on both wet and dry hair, using less than a pea size amount. I found it to be very drying on wet hair, giving me flyaways and making it hard to style. On dry hair was a little better, but still ended up with flyaways.

                  I love this product. I use to get the one for blondes but it's really hard to find. I checked in the stores, and found this one for brunette's. I opened the tube and found that it was clear! I bought some (less expensive than the blonde one for some reason), and have been using it ever since. Drugstore.com has great prices, and ordering is so easy, and it arrives very quickly, so I now purchase it here. It's a wonderful product for control and conditioning. It doesn't weigh my hair down. A tiny bit is all that I need, and it adds such shine! Love it, love it, love it!

                      Been using this product for a while. One bottle lasts for a long time because a little goes a long way. Smells great, not heavy or greasy at all. For use on wet or dry hair. Works well with my wavy, fairly fine hair. I use this mostly for smoothing out my hair after it's dry and use a leave in conditioning cream for wet hair. Definitely recommend.

                          Try it you'll love it! I you need a little something to smooth the fly aways, add SHINE without a greasy feeling, and want natural highlights this is the product for you. I used it years ago and it is difficult to find in normal stores. DRUG STORE.com made it easy and available for me right to my door and a few days. THANK YOU
