Advantages: Great smell. mmmm yum.
Disadvantages: I found it gave my hair a greasy look.
After my last review about Advance Techniques Daily Results leave in conditioner, i thought that i better give my opinion on this one as it differs quite alot from that product.
I recieved this in the pack that i got, 5 for £5, from an Avon campaign a few books back, and at the start i was pleasently surprised to see the quality of the products for that price, but when i used it, i was really dissapointed.
-----So what is it then?-----
It is a spray in liquid that claims to ' contain creatine plus shine silicones to deliver a smooth-as-glass shine, all day long'. Well i didnt find this at all, all i found was that it made my hair look slightly greasy, not really a great look is it?
-----The packaging-----
It is the usual Advance Techniques colours of green and pearlesant white, the lid has a pump action spray which is green and this is really easy to use, then the rest of the bottle is white with a few green details on it. The packaging is not all that special, but it doesn't really matter to me what it looks like.
-----How to use it-----
1 - wash you hair.
2 - dry your hair.
3 - spray lightly and evenly through your hair.
Not really rocket science is it?
-----The smell-----
This product has the same distinct smell that the rest of the Advance Techniques have, that really lovley 'Calpol' smell then when it is on your hair it then has a pleasent coconut smell, that seems to linger for ages. I have to admit i am kind of addicted to this smell, it reminds me of being a child and getting Calpol and wanting the whole bottle!
-----My opinion-----
I feel that there are a few good things about this that i really like and a few bad things that really put me off ever buying it again.
Likes - I like that fact that i got it for the price that i did, but i dont think that i would buy it at full price because i am just not that keen on it.
I love the smell, it is to die for, i like when i get a product that smells really nice as it makes me hair feel really fresh, and its great that the smell lasts so long, it really makes it a worth while product.
Dislikes - When i used this product i felt like my hair look and felt really greasy, i dont know if it was just me, or if that i maybe sprayed too much on my hair or too close, but it really has mde me not want to try it again, as i then had to go and wash my hair for the 2nd time in one day, not really good when you are in a hurry to go out.
I woule have prefered that if i was going to use this product more that it was in a larger bottle, as i feel that 100ml is not really all that much, compared to the size of the other products in this range.
-----Overall----
This product i really not for me at all, and i dont think that i would be trying it again, and now i have two full bottles lying around gathering dust. anyone want them?
Summary: Up to you but i wouldnt recommend it.
