Phyto Intense Hydrating Brilliance Collection

What it is: A three-step program to impart softness and shine to dry hair. What it does: This deliciously scented set features cleansing, conditioning, and styling plant-based formulas to nurture and soften dry locks. Infused with hydrating jojoba, softening cornflower, mallow extracts, and a unique moisture-retaining complex, parched hair regains its elasticity, softness, and brilliant shine. This set contains:- 1.7 oz Phytojoba Mask- 1.7 oz Phyto 7 Cream- 6.7 oz Phytojoba ShampooWhat it is formulated WITHOUT:- Parabens- Synthetic Fragrances- Synthetic Dyes- Petrochemicals- Phthalates- GMOs- TriclosanWhat else you need to know: Dry hair is often the result of a combination of physiological and external causes. These causes, including insufficient sebum secretion, heat-styling, harsh shampoos, sun or chemical processes, combine to modify the appearance and feel of hair. The hydrolipidic film no longer plays its protective role, the cuticle becomes damaged, and scales lift and separate, leaving the hair fiber vulnerable. The cuticle also becomes porous, and hair cannot retain moisture, making it lackluster, difficult to detangle, and prone to split ends. This all-natural daily program restores the hydrolipidic film to renew hair with health, softness, and shine.

I dont think that this product is for everyone...
-03.19.13
With any product they are going to react uniquely to the individual.
With that being said, this product did nothing for me. I gave it a whole month to be certain. I didn't see glossy tresses as promised. I didn't see less build up as promised. I didn't see or feel a less congested scalp as promised.
These promises were made by Phyto's in store rep that day, lol!
But I as always, I will let you be the judge, just be ready to spend $50!

I gave four stars because the hydrating cream was not very good. Love the mask! It makes hair so soft.

Good products
-01.06.13
I received this as a gift and probably wouldn't pay again for it myself, but the products are great. The only other Phyto product I've ever used is their purple shampoo, which I would give a one star review. It had almost a consistency of water and did not get the red hue out of my hair and turned a few of my blonde streaks purple. A similar, and better, shampoo can be bought at a drugstore for $5. Anyways, these three are solid products, particularly the mask, but the portions are a bit small for the price. It is hard not to use more of the conditioners than you need especially if you have long hair.

Great set of 3 hydrating products in one value package. Makes your hair soft, shiny and very manageable. Works well on colored, dry and curly/frizzy hair. Would highly recommend.

what a difference!

Quick Take: good value, amazing
i got the shampoo and conditioner of this set as samples from my hairstylist. I got them just before my trip to London for 2 weeks and I packed them, thinking, "maybe i'll use these sooner or later..." but WHAT A DIFFERENCE. I had NONE of the frizz problems i usually had with humid, rainy weather, and i had ZERO flyaways almost the whole time! well worth the money!

Not Impressed!
-09.13.12
Quick Take: not a good value., made the top flatter and the ends look dry.
The shampoo is the same consistency as milk. It is almost impossible to take a normal amount in your hands as it is too thin. The conditioner did not feel like it did much for my hair, and the styling cream makes my hair very snarly. So it is breaking my hair which is definitely not what I want. I have long have, and have used cheaper products than this that make my hair look and feel better. Really disappointed.

Magic!

Quick Take: good value
I LOVE this collection. My hair is dry but also fine and quickly gets oily, so a lot of hyrdating products tend to weigh it down or add to the oiliness. Not these products. I get healthy shine without unnessary weight or extra oil. The leave in conditioner also acts as a very gentle straightener for my hair.

Great for dry hair

Quick Take: good value
I have very fine hair that gets super frizzy when it air dries. The Phytojoba shampoo leaves my hair soft and manageable, and the Phyto 7 is irreplaceable! It gets rid of the frizz without weighing my hair down, and has allowed me to grow my hair to the longest it's ever been, while keeping it healthy! Also, safe for color-treated hair.

Quick Take: delicious
Nice products. I have dry sensitive skin, and straight hair that tends to get greasy. These products don't irritate my skin, but I find the leave in conditioner can make my hair look a little greasy if I use too much. Love the smell and would purchase again.

Quick Take: good value
I like this product but really expected more out of it. I find myself wanting more silkiness and softness. Leaves my hair just shy of where it needs to be. I have blonde hair that tends to be very dry and it is thin. Probably will keep looking for my "it" product.

excellent results!
-11.27.11
Quick Take: little pricey but worth it
I had some buildup on my hair that left it dry and damaged once I cleared the buildup. These phyto products really got my hair back into good shape and I am so happy with the results. Although I would like the shampoo to be a little thicker when pouring out of can, I just have to be a bit more careful when pouring, so no product is wasted. I love the collection and would definitely buy again!

Quick Take: good value, incredible results, worth the money
I was very curious about this brand due to the fact that everything is all natural and so far the products I have seen are paraben and sulfate free. I have been very interested in finding a good brand that has paraben free products just because I have very long hair and I am looking for ways to maintain my hair looking very healthy and shinny. I started with the Phyto keratin kit and was hooked with this brand. My mom got this for me yesterday and I could not believe that I loved it even more than the Keratin line which I was extremely happy with. The phytojoba products leave my hair extremely soft and shinny. The shampoo smells amazing! Be careful though because I expected the consistency of the shampoo to be like the keratin shampoo (thicker) and when I poured shampoo out of the bottle I got more than I needed. I would recommend to use the shampoo's cap as a measurer. My long hair only needs that amount. The Mask I left on for around 5 minutes and as I was rinsing my hair I could tell there was a noticeable difference in terms of the softens of my hair. Lastly, I have curly hair that is relaxed just on my roots (I am latina =) ) and for the first time ever I was able to blow dry my hair and it took me around 40 minutes!!! My hair is almost at the length of my elbows!! Oh and one last thing, ever since I started out with this brand my hair has been growing faster than before, not sure if it is because of all the natural ingredients or what but I love that too. I'm definitely hooked on this brand and would recommend this to anyone! ;)
