I was given the opportunity to test this masque out for free and I’m so glad! I didn’t expect to like it as much as I did. My hair felt so soft and smooth after use and a little bit of product went a long way even though I have long thick hair. There is still plenty left for a few more applications! Scent is mild so people with sensitivities should be fine. Will probably purchase again!
Really great masque to treat damaged coloured hair. It is very nourishing as I have been using this hair masque twice a week for deep conditioning. Smells amazing just like the rest of Joico’s products.
My hair is very fine but there is a lot of it. I find it gets dry from the use of heat tools and colouring. This mask makes my hair feel super nourished for a solid few weeks. You only need a little blob to do your whole head.
