When this product was first released I heard a lot of mixed reviews about it, so obviously I had to go track it down and test it out! I found mine at a local CVS over the summer and have been using it for about 2 months now (to give it a fair review).
This product claims to keep your hair straight for up to 3 days, if you don't wash it. You apply it to wet, clean hair and then blowdry and straighten to lock in the product. It is like a mini keratin treatment. I use about 10-12 pumps of the product to coat my medium length, thick hair. Your hair might feel a little sticky after spraying this on, but once you brush it through that feeling should go away. I find using this helps to cut down on blowdry time. You could not use this and only blowdry you hair, you must follow with a hair straightener to activate the chemicals in the product and ensure a lasting result.
With this product my hair stays poker straight for at least 2 days, although I have been known to get a third day out of it. Your hair will crease a bit while sleeping, but if you run a quickly straightener over it to fix any bumps it should be fine. By the third day my hair usually needs a wash and I tend to just stick it up in a ponytail, but if you have thicker or more coarse hair that isn't prone to oilyness than you might not find this at all!
Overall I give this product a 3 out of 5. I suppose it does what it says it will, but when I use it I find I am very cautious of tucking my hair behind my ears, tying it up, or even sleeping on it. I used up the whole bottle just to get rid of it but I can't say I will be repurchasing.
