          | After reading Karen`s reviews on the ARTec line, I went and bought the smoothing shampoo and conditioner.  They work great and don`t leave a waxy build-up on my scalp.  But my hair was fly-away, so I went and bought the ARTec smoothingserum. 
 Yuck!  It leaves a scalp scum and smells slightly like dead fish!  Has anyone else tried this product and had different results?

          | Ewwww  yucky!!  No I haven`t and now I won`t; but their Texturline has a smoothing serum that`s very nice also a balm called textureshine that I REALLY like - no wax, and rinses out with water but really smoothes the frizzes, it is hard to spread however...gabi

          | The only thing I can think is that you got a funky bottle - honest - mine is fine - it`s smooth, easy to rinse out with just water, not sticky and definitely doesn`t smell bad - I`d take it back to the store...wags

          | Karen - I`ve used this stuff many times now and have had REALLY great results and a very nice smell. 
 So I thought I`d get back in and tell you I really do think you got a "bad" bottle...g
