Well a couple of weeks ago I decided to try another product out of the Phyto line of products, the Phytodefrisant. So far I've been really pleased with the sun protection oil and with Karen's reviews in mind I had high hopes. This is supposed to be a relaxing gel for frizzy hair kinda like a silicon elixer, but made purely from plant extracts with no silicons. Well, all I can say is that I'm glad I got the trial size. It certainly didn't damage my hair, or make it all sticky or anything, in fact it didn't do anything. When I put it in my damp hair, my hair just dried as usual, with the normal amount of mild frizziness between shampoos. When I put it in my hair dry it had about the same de-frizzing action as running a wet comb through my hair a few times and letting it dry again. The label says that the effect was cumulative, and I did try using it several times without washing in between... it still did pretty much nothing.I'm unimpressed.-jennifer

Jennifer,Thank you very much for sharing that info. Since my hair is a cross between wavy and straight, I almost never have to deal with frizzy so I would not know if the Phytodefrisant worked or not. Thanks for testing it and letting us know.The odd thing is that the products I tried were really good for me, but a friend absolutely hated the Phyto7 creme which I loved. Once again....a need to alway remember to try the small size first and see if the product works for your hair type.Thanks again for the feedback.Best wishes,Karen> Well a couple of weeks ago I decided to try> another product out of the Phyto line of products,> the Phytodefrisant.

Hi Jennifer! I've heard rave reviews about the Phytodefrisant, but I think that they used the product in conjunction with using a blowdryer (on hot) and round brush to manually straighten the hair. I used to use KMS Flatout and RUSK STR8 (which worked great), and toyed with the idea of getting some Phyto, but now my hair is way too long to blow it out straight without doing LOTS of damage!Hope this helps! JM
