They are almost identical leave-in conditioners except that Phyto 9 has a more intense botantical conditioning formulation that makes it a heavier conditioner than the 7.
When my naturally dry hair is doing OK I use the 7. When it is extra dry and in any type of long hair distress I use the 9.
The best way to use this is to squeeze just a tiny dab of the rich cream into the palms of your hands and mix it well. Then lightly smooth the product over the top of your damp hair from the roots to the ends. This is the best way to use the product. If you use too much it can make your hair overly conditioned.
I love both of the products but only use 9 for stressful hair days. If someone has damaged or chemically fried hair they could use 9 on a regular basis. This is not a good product for someone with fine/thin hair unless they use a tiny tiny amount. Even then I would recommend the 7 for most cases.
I do keep both on my sink but only because my hair acts up during certain times of the year.
Yes 9 is definitely heavier. Actually I have some on my ends right now. I like to leave it on my dry ends overnight that I wrap up in a plastic showercap.
I find 9 too moisturizing for day to day wear and keep it on tap for times when my ends get crunchy or stressed.
That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger or drives you totally insane. :-)
