Customer Rating: Summary: LOVE LOVE LOVE Fekkai's Protein RX system Comment: About 8 months ago I decided to do something drastic and highlight my dark brown/black Asian hair to get those "J-LO" caramel blonde streaks. After several attempts, I wished I never did it; because my hair ended up fried beyond repair. I tried so many different treatments to get the luster back but nothing seemed to work. I thought my only hope was to shave my head and start over. Then about a month ago I discovered Fekkai's Protein RX shampoo and conditioner. WOW what a differnce! Before using the Protein RX system, I dreaded shampooing because my hair would just get knotted up into a DRY, OVERPROCESSED, CLUMP, of YUCK! Now my hair feels soft and silky and looks amazingly shiney - no gloss needed! Thanks so much! Money well worth every penny if you value your locks! I wash and condition my hair with the Protein RX shampoo and conditioner. After towel drying, I add just a dime sized amount of the conditioner to my shoulder length hair as a leave-in. Whala! GREAT HAIR!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Fantastic shampoo! Comment: As what most reviewers have mentioned, this shampoo has a very strong fragrance compared to most but, I happen to like it a lot. This shampoo is in a higher price range, but definitely worth the money. I have chin length, dry, color-treated hair and this keeps my hair moisturized and shiny. I'm also happy to note that it leaves my hair feeling silky and not frizzy. The next time I need to buy a bottle, I'll probably get the 16 oz which will save me a couple of dollars (8oz ~ $22 and 16oz ~ $35). Customer Rating: Summary: Great conditioner... Comment: I purchased this conditioner after having used the Fekkai color-treated (the pink one) version thinking it would be even better for my high-lighted and damaged hair. While it is still a fantastic conditioner compared to most on the market, I really thought that the pink one did a better job. Both leave my hair smooth and relatively healthy, but my hair is honestly gorgeous after using the pink Fekkai conditioner--shiny, bouncy, like I never colored it. Maybe this one is a little too heavy for my hair? I haven't quite figured out the difference.
As previous posters have noted, this does have a rather strong smell--sort of a floral, almond fragrance--which is a little stronger than most hair products. I didn't find it particually off-putting, but I do prefer the clean, simple fragrance of the pink Fekkai conditioner.
All in all, a great product, but I'll go back to my original Fekkai conditioner when this one runs out. I never thought I would say this about a $20 tiny bottle of conditioner, but it's totally worth the $$.(For comparison purposes, I have medium-length, straight, dirty blonde hair with highlights). Customer Rating: Summary: Great stuff, but very smelly Comment: Okay, I know fragrance is a personal preference. This shampoo and the conditioner and hair treatment mask have done wonderful things for my damaged hair. However, I hate the smell. It has a very heavy fragrance that I can only describe as being like incense or myrhh. Very overpowering and gives me a headache. I prefer my hair products to have light, clean, fresh scents that won't interfere with my perfume and won't give me a headache. Thus, only 4 stars. I wish the people at Fekkai would consider changing the fragrance for this product line to something less intrusive. Customer Rating: Summary: Soooo Good! Comment: I received a sample of this from Sephora, when I bought another Fekkai product. I couldn't believe it when I tried it. It's wonderful, it smells great(my boyfriend loved it), it got my hair really clean and left it soft and with some body, not limp and greasy feeling. I will only use Fekkai products from now on, they really are the best for your hair.
