Nothing spectacular
-05.17.13
Quick Take: easy to use, lightweight, non-sticky
I usually use morrocan oil on my thick hair to get it to look sleek and straight, but grabbed a sample size of this B&B product since I've heard great things about B&B line. I am not overy impressed. The morrocan oil works better on my particular head of hair to keep it straight and glossy. I did like the B&B texture, its not greasy, but it didn't work as well for me.

Cuts blow-dry time
-05.13.13
Quick Take: easy to use
My hair is oily at the crown and dry at the ends (previously dyed), and I have loose waves/curls that poof up at the slightest hint of humidity. I was hoping that using this product would help my hair stay sleek in hot, humid weather. Well, on that count it failed, but on the plus side, it significantly cuts down my blow-dry time, so I'll keep using it, and just hope I can find another product to layer on top when I'm going to be in a humid environment.

Smells great, leaves hair silky
-05.09.13
Quick Take: lightweight
I put this on my wet hair right after the shower (because I love the smell) and wait until hair is dried -- either naturally or by blower -- to straighten and it still works like a charm. Not only does it smell great but it leaves my hair silky soft.

Would not buy again

Quick Take: greasy
This product is terrible. Makes your hair feel super greasy. I would not recommend it. I actually used it once and returned it to the store. I never return beauty products but this one I did.

Not great
-05.06.13
I got a travel size of this and used it and it was fantastic, my hair looked wonderful. So I purchased the full size...well it must have been the water while I was traveling, because this isn't great. It makes my hair greasy even with a small amount. And it's still frizzy....

Great Product
-05.03.13
Quick Take: lightweight, non-sticky, easy to use
I don't blow dry my hair that often but when I do I use this. I have frizzy hair, especially when it's rainy out. After switching to this product my frizz is greatly reduced. It gives my hair a natural shine, it's touchable.

Finally a great product
-04.29.13
Quick Take: easy to use, lightweight, non-sticky, no residue
This is the first product that actually did what it said it would do. My hair will stay like I just did it for days if necessary. Now I can stop wasting money and throw out the other products that do not do what they say they will do.

Quick Take: lightweight, easy to use, smells great!
So I've always wanted to try Bumble and bumble anything, but the prices have always kept me away. The other day at Sephora I got a tiny little sample of this--like the size of the tip of my thumb. I figured it wouldn't be enough (my hair is waist length) but surprisingly I didn't even use half of my sample! It's a very light weight formula and has a super creamy consistency, so a little goes a long way. My hair usually gets really frizzy, but with a dime size amount I didn't even need my usual hair smoothing serums! I am very pleases with this and will pick up a full size bottle next time.

Quick Take: easy to use, lightweight
I have thick, wavy hair and live in Kentucky - I am constantly looking for a product to tame my hair in the summer. I love this one! It does a great job at keeping my hair straight after I blow it out. Definitely recommend!

Great stuff
-04.27.13
I love this product, even though I don't use it all over my hair. I received a sample of this product and used it just on my bangs and along the sides around my face. It worked like a charm in our hot, humid Southwest Florida weather. I have very fine hair that tends to wave in humidity and I think if I used this all over my head, it would flatten it out - but that's only because my hair is so fine. In the manner I use it, just around my face, it does exactly what I want it to do. I ordered the full size product and will reorder when needed.

Great hair straightening product
-04.25.13
I have used this product for a while. It works really well on damp hair before blow drying and straightening. I use it with bumble and bumble semi sumo which also works awesome and smells great.

Smells bad
-04.25.13
Quick Take: lightweight, non-sticky
I bought this on advice from a sales person, and I think that the product works well, but it smells horrible. I don't think I am going to keep it because I don't want my hair to smell like it all day.

Great for my semi-straight hair
-04.21.13
I have asian hair - black, pretty straight and slightly frizzy depending on the weather. This helps me get the frizz under control, and is chock full of heat protection. I mix this with a moisturizer and smother it all over the ends of my hair. A quick blow dry and I'm good for 2 days. Great product!

Great control
-04.13.13
Quick Take: lightweight, non-sticky, easy to use, great scent
I don't use this to blow out, I have very curly hair and have yet to get it blown straight on my own. I do however use this after my shower just as a balm and the next day my curls are beautiful. I love the look and feel of my curls with this on it. By far this is the best product I have found.

Very Drying
-04.13.13
Quick Take: lightweight, non-sticky, very drying
This product does speed drying time, but at the cost of really drying out your hair. It contains a lot of alcohol. I have really thick, somewhat coarse hair, so it's always a little dry, but I really hated the way my hair felt after using this compared to not using anything. For something designed for coarse, thick hair, I was surprised they even bother claiming it's "lightweight"...dude, I WANT things to weigh my hair down a little! Back to Kerastase for me.

This product works great to give you a straight sleek blow dry. I have naturally curly/wavy hair and using the BB Straight Blow Dry, I get a smooth look that even looks great for a couple days. Also smells good!
