Customer Rating: Summary: Works Great! Comment: I discovered this fantastic product thru my hair dresser. She highly recommended it. I'm usually wary as she haggles a bit for that extra commission. However, the 5.1 fl. oz. serum was selling for $16.95 + 1 for a discount at 99 cents. So why not?
Boy, I'm glad I did! This product promises to help smooth hair fast with reduced dry time, control frizz, and add shine. With my unruly waves and thick hair, it's very difficult to achieve ALL three. Yet this product works great with just a small pump! I apply evenly and air dry and the results are satisfactory. Plus, I love the sweet fragrance and non-grease (very important!) that some serums leave behind.
I hate fussing with my hair too much, so for my particular needs this serum is perfect! It works much better than the styling products I currently use: Matrix Curl.Life Defining System Contouring Cream 5.1 oz and Biosilk Silk Therapy. I totally recommend it to women who require economy and efficiency when it comes to styling hair.
Customer Rating: Summary: Best serum there is for dry, brittle or damaged hair Comment: I won a free sample bottle of this last year and ever since then, I cannot live without it. Both my husband and I have long hair with mine nearly to my waist. Even though we don't use heat to style our hair, the damage from brushing and combing adds up. When you have long hair, even with proper brushes and combs, you tend to stretch the hair as you comb it out wet and further stretch when you brush during styling. The result is split ends and fragile hair. We have found that applying this serum to towel dried hair and then letting it sit for 5 to 10 minutes makes comb-outs easier and less damaging. You can also use on dry hair - put a dime sized amount in your palms, rub your hands together and then lightly touch your hair from the ends up to the roots, running your fingers through the hair as we go. Then lightly brush your hair and pat the top side from the part to the ends with what little remains on your hair.
The only way you can go wrong with this product is to over-apply it. A little goes a very long way when your hair is dry. When wet, you can get away with using a little more. The product is easy to use but very slippery. You will have to towel off your hands after using it or wash them. The fragrance is fruity and pleasant but light enough not to clash with your cologne or perfume. I prefer to use this on damp hair in place of a leave-in conditioner. Once hair is dry, I use Kenra Silkening mist instead of another round of of serum. The silkening mist is lighter, tames flyaways better and does not look greasy. If you have had problems with greasy hair using the Super-Skinny Serum, try using my method: Super-skinny serum on damp hair, Kenra Silkening mist on dry hair. When you combine the two products, you get a nice layered control of frizz. I then further treat my hair once a week or once every two weeks with a hot oil treatment. Using all three of these products together can go a long ways towards ridding you of split ends, frizzies and breakage.
One added caution - The Super Skinny Serum will coat your hair. That's how it makes comb-thru so much easier. If you don't wash your hair everyday or every other day, the build-up of product on your hair can start to look dull and greasy. If you only wash a couple or a few times a week, consider using a clarifying shampoo or one that is specifically forumalted to address styling product build-up on the hair. Customer Rating: Summary: best ever Comment: I have long hair that I blow dry every morning so I was in desperate need of a product that would kill the frizzies without making it stringy and oily looking. I had not been able to solve my problem until I got a free sample of this product. Instantly I was hooked on it, and I have tried everything. This product just seems to absorb into the hair shaft, not coat it. With other products it is easy to overdo it and ruin your hair by making it look oily. Not so with this product. If you distribute it evenly and blow dry it it makes your hair super silky and shiny, it even brings out the color of your hair a little. I've just ordered another full size bottle and can NOT go a day without it. Nice fragrance, not strong. Looks amazing after a flatiron or curling. This was a real find for me and I recommend it to everyone. Customer Rating: Summary: Just what my hairdresser ordered Comment: I have long (past my shoulders) thick course wavy hair myself and could not find a product that would make my hair less frizzy and plain WILD looking. My hairdresser recommended this product to me and I just had to try it. Not only does this remarkable product smooth out my FRIZZIES and make my hair much more managable it cuts the drying time down drasticly. It was taking me over 10 mins to dry my hair each morning. Using this product it takes less than 4 mins. I've found that after applying this to my hair and running a wide tooth comb through it helps distribute the product evenly, and makes my hair silky smooth. I just love this product and am so glad my hairdresser recommended it. I will not go a day without it!!! And boy what a great fragrance. I've had many complements. Customer Rating: Summary: A miracle Comment: This stuff is amazing. I have incredibly thick, coarse, and curly hair that I can't tame with a hairdryer and round brush, but Super Skinny does the trick. I divide my hair into sections, work the serum through, and flat iron it, and my hair comes out shiny and smooth. I've also noticed that my hair is less damaged since I've been using the serum instead of flat ironing the hair naked.
