The leave-in is a cloudy white liquid and has a sweet, candy-like fragrance.
Results:
I washed twice with the Organic Cleanse shampoo and deep conditioned with the Stimulations Conditioner.As shown in the video, I sprayed a generous amount of product on my freshly shampooed and conditioned hair. I also applied a quarter size amount of the Design Essentials Silk Essentials (review to follow).
I detangled and proceeded to blowout the hair, applying the DE Nutriment Creme headdress (review to follow) to each section to help keep it lubricated.

Lastly, I flat ironed the hair adding a bend at the ends.
Positive:
The leave-in has a nice light fragrance and does help detangle the hair. It also leaves a light hold, which is great for curling or setting the hair. My hair felt very soft after it was blown dry.Negative:
It left my hair feeling a bit coated and sticky. The fragrance does not linger and takes on a chemical smell when heat is applied. I did like the hold and the coated feeling seemed to disappear after I finished blow drying and flat ironing the hair.Overall:
Has anyone else tried this product? What did you think?
