Best detangler and prep formula I've ever used.
-04.01.13
Quick Take: lightweight, non-sticky, airy, detangler!
I've been looking for a detangler for my color-treated fine hair. After showering, I spray a light layer and wait just a minute or two. Brushing my hair with my special detangling brush is so much easier. It also doesn't weigh my hair down like most spray leave-in conditioners. It serves as a good base for any blow-drying or curling. Will last a long while judging by the slight dent I've made in the last 2 or so months.

Great Product as always
-03.30.13
Quick Take: lightweight, non-sticky, easy to use, really works
I use it after shampooing on a damp hair for a great lightweight clean and detangling effect. Love it. My hair is thin and dry and very hard to detangle without pain. This really helps and gives a healthy look to my hair. I love a natural look, so it's perfect for those who do not style their hair with lots of other stuff but still need it look like it's just out of the salon.

so-so
-03.20.13
Quick Take: good for fine hair, only a light duty detangler
It was more weightless on my hair after it dried, but it seems to dry out my ends. I have highlighted hair, so I probably would need something more heavy-duty, as far as a detangler goes. Those with fine flatter hair might have more luck with it than I.

Curley Red Hair
-03.19.13
Quick Take: lightweight, non-sticky, easy to use
I purchased this for my grandaughter. She has very curley red hair and tangles easily. She is two and now after her bath she always asks me to spray her hair before we comb it. That in itself says it all. This stuff is a great detangler.

Healthier hair
-03.16.13
In the Sephora store I was looking for a product to spray on my hair prior to using the blow dryer, that would help with moisture. My hair stylist had talked with me about using sulfate free products to retain my color longer, so after using them for some time my hair seemed to be healthier. I had Wen's spray but had run out and wanted a good spray to retain the healthy look. This was recommended by the salesperson.
This spray does a wonderful job of keeping moisture in the hair, giving my hair shine without weighing it down. I've only used Bumble and Bumble infrequently, so was not familiar with all their product line. I'm so happy I tried this, it's reasonably priced, and does what I want it to do.

Great stuff
-03.08.13
Quick Take: detangler feels good
I love the B&B line. Been using it for years! The prep spray is an amazing detangler. I have very coarse, thick, and wavy/curly hair that is usually more unruly than not. When I massage this spray into my hair after I wash my hair, my hair stays tangle free and just lovely. As with all higher quality products, the product lasts a long time and you don't need too much.

Does not weigh hair down
-03.04.13
Quick Take: easy to use, lightweight, non-sticky
I have fine, long, semi oily hair. With the right product I can go every other day between washes. So many products weigh my hair down within hours. This prep is great. Gets the tangles out and it doesn't seem to matter how much I use it does not make my hair oily. Not sure if the Herbs and vitamins are doing anything but they are not causing any damage. I have even put a little on a comb and run it through when hair is dry if I had too many tangles. Will keep buying.

magic. vitamin primer for your hair
-02.17.13
Quick Take: miracle, light, easy, necessary
i have relatively fine, not totally thick hair. by the end of each day my roots can be oily and my hair tends to separate a bit (not cute for bangs especially). i discovered this prouduct probably 5 years ago and honestly am never without it. when i am, i notice a huge difference in my hair.
think of it as a vitamin water meets primer. improves health over time, keeps you looking fresh that day and makes product wear well.
my technique: i spray onto damp hair post shower, comb thru, then use a small amount of styling cream all over. if im on time, i'll blowdry, but more often than not i'm out the door and it dries like a dream. also good for remisting ends when they feel dry.
my fiancee uses it to refresh his curly hair which gets a little "puffy" sometimes. :) i always have a secret bottle hidden away from his grasp...

Love it!
-02.11.13
I use this product nearly every day, even if I'm not using any other styling products. It's super gentle on my hair, makes it feel soft and look lustrous. I don't get tangles often, but this makes my combs glide through my hair like nothing else. It also makes a great base for other styling products; seems to help them grip better and last longer. I couldn't ask for a better product!

Indispensible, Esp if you're using B&B products
-02.02.13
Quick Take: easy to use
Nourish and prep = perfect. And you MUST use this for a number of B&B products or your hands willl be caught in your hair forever.

Peeuuwww!
-01.30.13
Quick Take: not worth it
If I could I would give this product zero stars. Not sure exactly what this is for (doesn't appear to do anything for my fine, thick, curly hair) and man does it stink! To me it smells like a 20 year old rubber inner tube. I just have the 2 oz bottle (thank goodness) and I would camouflage the smell with some Moroccan Oil. I have some of their other styling products which I love, and smell nice, but this one will be a forever "pass" on my shopping list.
