In this corner weighing in at weightless shine is Moroccan Oil! ha ha. Moroccan Oil Treatment is a light weight formula that is absorbed into the hair and is said is instant and leaves no residue. It claims to have the ability to restore over-processed and damaged hair and dry, wet hair faster.

I am in love with this product! It restored my hair's shine, helped control my frizz from bleaching it and helps to detaingle my hair when applied to slightly damp hair. I put it to the test with my blow dryer and it took my dry time from 21 mins to 12 mins. Moroccan oil smells like Cocoa butter too Yum! Only a nickel sized amount was needed to cover my hair, which stops 3" below the bottom of my shoulder blade. I worked the Oil through my hair by rubbing my hands together then applied to my hair starting half way down combing my hands through my hair down to the tips then up to the roots. I suggest a full bristle brush for a couple strokes afterwards so you can help spread the oil evenly through your hair.

This oil isn't just for people with thick hair. Many women with thin hair (like me) tend to stay away from oil hair products since they can weigh the hair down and look very greasy and dirty, but this product is usable for women with fine hair. Very little product goes a long way so there isn't much oil in your hair to weight it down. For people that think this is too heavy for their hair Moroccanoil has come out with a lighter formula as well, but this one suits me fine.

I find my hair is easier to manage using Moroccan Oil after I get out of the shower. My hair isn't as elastic and sticky when blow drying which helps to minimize breakage. My hair is smoother after straightening with an iron as opposed to straightening without the oil and having flyaways. The best part about this oil is with everything it does, it does it all without leaving a residue or weighing my hair down. Even after three days of using hot tools and no washing. (But I wouldn't go past three days without washing) The down side of the oil is if you are prone to breakouts try and keep your hair out of your face, it can be a little rough on delicate skin by clogging pores.

Along with all of these wonderful thing it does, it also says you can use it before dying/ bleaching your hair to minimize damage. I haven't tried it yet but I do plan to the next time I bleach my hair. It also works well to moisturize my legs without stickiness. I just wipe my hands off on my legs when I'm done applying to my hair.

IB Revitalize Overnight Treatment Spray by Jonathan

At first this product was hard to review. Who wants to have greasy, oily hair while sleeping? Getting oil all over your pillow case if your like me, tossing the towel under your head off the bed and doing face plants into your hair. Ick! After months and 3"s of root growth my bleach blond locks needed a touch up badly! The first bleach and low light session was a disaster so in one weekend I bleached my hair twice! I know super ruff on the hair.

Bleach blond beauties I recommend this product HIGHLY for you. In antisipation of a second bleaching I used this time to really see what the IB Revitalize Overnight Treatment could do. Instructions say you can leave it in for 15 minutes or for best results over night. I choose the 15 minute approach. I separated my dried out frizzy hair into 4 sections and sprayed the product from root to end and finished by brushing the smooth detangling product all the way through my hair. Wrapped a towel around my head and continued with my daily chores. The smell of the product isn't too noticeable, kind of like any other cooking oil might smell but with a little hint of minerals. I washed my hair normally with my shampoo and conditioner.

The results...
After a wash and blow dry, my hair wasn't left with any oil residue and didn't feel weighed down. This product held up to it's claim of being a revitalizer. My fried, dull, lack lustre hair was now smooth, soft and shiny. It was almost like I bleached my hair three weeks ago and not last night! I can only imagine what it will do if I leave it on all night.

IB Revitalize Overnight Treatment has a unique nitch, which granted can be done a lot more inexpensively with baby oil, but I am sure IB Revitalize Overnight Treatment has a better blend of minerals and oils to help reconstruct specifically your hair. The Jonathan line packaging is pretty much uniform across the board. Sleek, clean and good quality. Easy to use and application is simple.

If you have dry, frizzy, straw-like, damaged hair you have to try IB Revitalize Overnight Treatment.

The awesome part about this program is that for the $50 I paid I got $400 worth of products. Too good to be true, right?! It is a GREAT deal.

FX Tangle Out

Tangle out
6 oz
$5.99

If you were hoping for the winning detangler get ready for disappointment. This spray pump bottle may look cute, fit nicely in your hand, and smell nice but the product inside isn't worth even the cutest packaging.

It claims to instantly detangle your tresses to minimize breakage, hydrate, replenish, and restore balance. I don't know if it hydrates, replenishes, or restores balance, since I only used this product one time and immediately took it back to the store the next day for a refund. When using the product as directed it felt like there was the potential for detangling power, but as I got into the thick of my bleach blond, stretchy hair it was like I had not even conditioned my hair. So I sprayed more, and more and more, and even with the wide toothed comb starting from the bottom to the top nothing at all about this product helped detangle my mess.

So back to buying my $30 something bottle of Enjoy detangler and conditioning spray and still on the search for that affordable detangler anyone in this economy can afford.
