John Frieda Frizz Ease Wind-Down Relaxing Creme

As is the case with most of my better discoveries, I cam across this product quite by accident. I had about 3 hours to buy everything I would need for the next year and a half (working on the, quite correct, assumption, that Menorcan and German shops might not quite live up to the standards of Mancunian ones) and after checking my list, I saw I had all bar one of the items on it. The missing link? Frizz Ease. Quick dives into first Superdrug and then Boots left me empty handed. A recent re-branding, re-naming and re-packaging frenzy in the John Frieda offices meant I had a choice of a dozen or so products, but none the one I was used to. Oh my golly gosh, I was ...  Read the complete review

Frizz Ease Wind-Down relaxing creme is a temporary relaxer that you can use in two ways. You can either use it to straighten out your hair, or to create softer, frizz-free curls or waves. The relaxing creme comes in a 100ml see-through plastic container, which has a pump dispenser. Although the packaging is basic, it is very practical, and I like the fact that you are able to see exactly how much product you have left. The creme is white and has what I can only describe as a chemical smell to it. You apply 1-2 pumps of the creme to damp hair, and work it through from roots to ends. You then comb your hair to make sure the product is distributed ...  Read the complete review

The jury is still out on this one for me, as there are definite plus points, but also several minuses too....I'll explain. This stuff comes in a pump action bottle, and is very clean to dispense, and doesn't particularly have a massively attractive smell, although it's not horrible. If it smelly gorgeous I might prefer it, who knows. You apply it to damp (not wet hair), it specifies that on the bottle, and rub in 1-2 blobs before you blow dry it straight, well that's the idea. So I followed the instructions one day, and although my hair's only really curly at the bottom of the hair shaft, I covered my head in product. True, ...  Read the complete review

I have been feeling pretty run down lately worrying about my IVF treatment so I thought I would treat myself to something nice in Boots. They never fail to tempt me with something, and Sure enough as I was browsing through the shelves I came across the John Frieda Frizz Ease, wind down relaxing creme. WHY? I HEAR YOU ASK (I CAN HEAR YOU) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Well with all the different treatments I have been going through my hair felt pretty lack lustre so I reckoned this may be just what I was looking for. The only worry being that on the container it says step 4.LOL, I think I skipped a few there, but never mind. On closer inspection ...  Read the complete review

For as long as I can remember I’ve been a bit kinky! – My hair that is, not me (although I've had my moments!). I’ve got long, fairly straight, blonde hair but it has a little bit of a kink in it. For more years than I care to think of I have washed my hair every morning just so I can blow-dry it dead straight. Obviously all these years of blow-drying have left it a bit frizzy at the ends sometimes too. A couple of weeks ago, whilst wandering around Boots I came across this great little product that has really impressed me (and, contrary to popular opinion, I’m not that easily to impress). It helps to straighten my hair ...  Read the complete review
