John Frieda Full Repair line

     So I've been using the shampoo, conditioner, fly away tamer and leave in for about 3 months.
At first the shampoo and conditioner was amazing. It make my hair soft and more voluminous with being oily or weighed down.

      Well, Now that I've really gave my hair time to get used to this routine I changed my opinion on in....

    I for the record have thick, wavy, dry, fly away ridden hair and dry scalp issues... I only dye my hair with a mix of temporary dye and deep conditioner (I used to dye and bleach my hair VERY often but I just don't feel a need or want to anymore) I'm currently trying to grow my hair out to chest length (for lack of better explanation) and my hair gets really dry at the ends and oily at the root easily. I do straighten my hair occasionally as well.


    What I want in my hair care/styling regimen is ALOT of moisture but at the same time not oil. I like volume and bounce without too much fuss.....I thought I'd finally found what I was looking for in this collection... I started using this before a VERY much needed haircut (dry. split end Hell) I found a bonus pack at Target shampoo with the leave in and conditioner with the fly away tamer. I noticed a huge difference within the first few uses of the shampoo conditioner and leave in and loved it. My hair was softer and easily to manage I never found a reason to use the tamer, honestly a good hairspray or a quick brushing does better at taming my fly aways...


   As time progressed I noticed my hairs condition dropped... My hair was feeling dryer and fluffier.... I like volume, not to resemble a poodle. Also, my dry scalp was flaking worse (not dandruff, just hardcore dry scalp). I've since stopped using the shampoo and conditioner and when I do use them I notice my hair just isn't happy.

As for the leave in and tamer.... I still use the leave in because I feel it makes a difference in the texture and softness of my hair. Let's just say you can tell when I don't use it ( those are my fluffy hair days). As for the tamer... I feel like I'm coating my hair with silicone..... in the end it looks like wet hair gel. I'm just genuinely not interested.

     So. Bottom line:   I still love the leave in but other than that is collection is just a fail to me.
It worked for a little while but after about a month my hair hates the S&C
