I picked this up at Marshalls about a week and a half ago (naturally, it was the day after I came back from the beach), and I am in love. I also found it at T.J. Maxx for around the same price on Monday.

This is supposed to be applied to your hair after a day in the sea/lake/whatever outdoor water source, but I’ve started using it as my regular leave-in conditioner. I have fine, frizzy hair that has pretensions of being wavy, and I never have much luck making it behave. I put this on my towel-dried hair, let it air dry, and voilà! I have neat, smooth hair with cooperative waves. My hair never looks this good on its own.

The product is orangeish-yellow and not heavily scented. It smells vaguely of thyme, which, along with grapefruit, is one of the ingredients. It’s not sticky or weird feeling, and washes off your hands easily.

I am really excited to have found this. This is officially the Summer of Great Hair for me! I was even impressed enough to buy KMS California’s Color Vitality Blonde Treatment at full retail. I know. I hate paying full price for things, but I think it will be worth it. Even so, twelve dollars isn’t that bad, right? Expect a review here before too long.
