Green Goo

by LuvtoShop [Verified Reviewer]

in Southern CA on 6/22/09

Cons: Ineffective, Smells Bad

Describe Yourself: Product Junkie

Hair Type: Wavy Hair

Bottom Line: recommended

This is nothing more than "green goo" that stinks. I have long hair extensions and I thought I would try this based on the reviews. I squeezed it out of the tube and the smell was gross. Then, I rubbed it into the hair extensions and it soaked in immediately, and I tried to run a large comb through my hair, and it would barely budge. Not sure what the fuss is all about. I am not impressed, and I had to use half of the tube, just to cover my hair. Not worth the money if you have long hair.

Not for fine hair

Pros: Great Smell

Cons: Leaves Residue, Too Heavy

Describe Yourself: Minimalist

Hair Type: Straight Hair

Bottom Line: not recommended

I wanted to like this product, but it just doesn't work with my fine, shoulder length hair. I followed instructions, used it before shampoo on wet hair, and my hair was a hot mess afterwards. It dried out my ends and left my roots greasy. This would probably work best for thick and/or curly hair. I haven't tried it as a pomade, but I will not be purchasing this again.

idk for some reason my hair felt strong

when i say i have been through alot i have been through alot. i have been looking for things that helps me manage my hair better when it has two textures (perm/new growth). it detangles and helps with the shedding. it also makes my hair shinny. i found this stuff through hairfinity and traycee from kiss. they help with all hair types and trust me if it wasnt for them i would be perming my hair every 6 wks.

I love this and bought more!

Best Uses: Brittle, Coarse, Curly Hair, Fine Hair

Bottom Line: recommended

I try different products all the time and buy in bulk and I loved this product it smells amazing! It also works wonders on my hair , I had a Japanese relaxer done on my very curly, frizzy, kinky hair and it became damaged weak and began to break. I have been using this product for about 2 to 3 weeks at least 2 times a week and I already see a difference. My hair is much stronger, shinier and healthier. I bought a bunch more just to have handy, LOL!

Better as finishing product...

Bottom Line: recommended

i think this is best used as a finishing/styling product than as a pre-shampoo treatment. just a tiny amount works wonders for flyaways and to curl-up those curls! my hair is super short though...i don't know if it'd be too heavy for longer hair. it also smells really good and leaves hair shiny!!

Amazing!

Best Uses: Daily Use, Deep Conditioning, Thick Hair

Hair Type: Wavy Hair

Bottom Line: recommended

This product is amazing! I noticed a difference in the softness and fullness of my hair after the first use! My thick wavy hair was beginning to feel a little dry and weighed down so I decided to give this product a try...and I'm so glad I did. Plus, I love the smell and the fact that this treatment is natural!

Hair Type: Wavy Hair

Bottom Line: recommended

I forgot my good deep conditioner while in Hawaii recently and was in need of something I could put on while out in the sun/heat to keep from more sun damage and to keep hair from drying out. This was about the only thing I could really find I felt would do what I needed it to do and IT DID. I was able to wet my hair at the pool shower, put in the product, then later shower and shampoo. I DO follow this with a light daily conditioner as my hair seems to need it, but I can tell it has been deeply conditioned prior to that. My blow out is smoother and hair more manageable.

I would buy this product again and again

Excellent for dry, coarse hair

Bottom Line: recommended

I have wavy, semi-curly hair naturally and I of course would love to have not so much of it. My hair is thick, coarse & dry. I read the other reviews written here & I have to say it truly just depends on your hair type. I use this twice a week and have now for a month. Never has my hair been greasy or anything close to it. I've also used this on my wet hair after shampooing & conditioning. I've used it on my dry hair to smooth out the frizzy's and it works well for that too. I think I get more benefit out of it because of my hair type and how I want my hair to look. So for me, it's an EXCELLENT product that I will buy again & again.

Bottom Line: recommended

I tried this first as a styling product as they mention on the back, but my hair is so long and the small amount I tried wasn't enough but was distracting me with the smell. If I had used the larger amount I needed, others probably would have been able to smell it as well; and I prefer to not have my hair products act as a perfume. Maybe only use it as a styling product if your hair is shorter, but as a pre-shampoo it's great! I use it with the Super Shiny Grapefruit & Sugar Beet shampoo and conditioner and my hair hasn't been this shiny or soft in a long time. I had never tried a pre-shampoo before and though it may seem like a lot to spend I think the results are worth it.
