I've used different leave-in treatments for years. I like switching it
up and trying new things. Even when I find something that works like a
charm, my mind is always open to new options, and when I came across
Alberto VO5 Sheer Hairdressing Weightless Leave-In Anti-Frizz &
Shine Creme, I was in "buy mode."
The treatment seemed like something I could use, especially on hot, humid days when my hair likes to have frizz fests.
Alberto VO5 Sheer Hairdressing Weightless Leave-In Anti-Frizz &
Shine Creme promised immediate reduce in frizz, with immediate glossy
shine, and that the formula would revive dry or unmanageable hair.
I figured for only $6.00, I could not pass it by. Besides I like VO5
hair care products! Heck, I even like their cheap shampoos, and
conditioners. They sell hair care products that work, so I was only
expecting the best. I had high hopes.
Directions:
Place some Alberto VO5 Sheer Hairdressing Weightless Leave-In
Anti-Frizz & Shine Creme into your palms rub together, and put into
hair while it is wet or dry.
Appearance:
Alberto VO5 Sheer Hairdressing Weightless Leave-In Anti-Frizz &
Shine Creme comes in a white stand up tube. The click top is at the
bottom so that way when you use it, you do not have to struggle with the
bottle. The creme will be right there at the tip just waiting to be
used.
The labeling on the tube is pretty attractive, and it was the gold metallic writing that caught my eye first.
My Use:
At home I squeezed out a small quarter amount of the white cream. I
then rubbed my palms together and slid the cream into my hair from the
middle to the ends. I never touch the roots because it could make you
look like a greasy dog.
The smell of the cream hit my nose first. It was awful. It reminded me
of unchanged jacuzzi water. It smelled unclean, and extremely
chemically. I was hoping to the high heavens that this awful stink did
not last.
Results on dry hair:
I was able to see a fast results when it came to reducing frizz, but
it seemed that as soon as the formula began to dry that the frizz just
bounced back up in all its glory.
The whole shine promise was barely noticeable. It did give me a bit of
shine, but like the frizz control, it vanished as soon as the cream
dried in my hair.
It seemed that the only good thing about Alberto VO5 Sheer
Hairdressing Weightless Leave-In Anti-Frizz & Shine Creme was that
the smell vanished as well.
Results on wet hair:
The tube claimed I could use this gunk on wet hair as well, so the
next day that is exactly what I did. After my hair was dry, the results
were...umm...wait, there were no goddamn results.
My hair was exactly the same as it always is after drying off after a
shower. There was no difference, there was no frizz control, and there
certainly was no newly added shine, or manageability.
Overall:
Alberto VO5 Sheer Hairdressing Weightless Leave-In Anti-Frizz &
Shine Creme is a total bust. The packaging was pretty, but everything
inside of the packaging was terrible. It has a nasty scent, it does
nothing once it dries. Alberto VO5 Sheer Hairdressing Weightless
Leave-In Anti-Frizz & Shine Creme is a pure waste.
They really need to throw this one off of the shelves and make room for something that works.
