Quick Take: good value
I have always had very dry (and very fine) hair. This product is the first one to truly work on my hair without making it limp and lifeless. I get soft, healthy hair that still has body. I saw a difference right away but knew I was on the right track when 3 wks into treatment I got my hair cut and my stylist immediately asked what I had done to get my hair in such great shape. I'm a believer.

This is my HG deep conditioning treatment - my hair no longer breaks and it is growing long - I owe it all to this product - I wish it wasn't as expensive though

Smells great and makes hair very soft
-05.06.13
I really like the recovery regimen. I had permed my hair twice and recently used a lot of heat styling for my hair. It was looking very dry. I have used this recovery regimen for three weeks now. And, it has made my hair much more healthy-looking. The treatment smells great and makes my hair feeling super soft and looking more lively. The only reason for not giving it 5 stars it that it is expensive.

Wow can't believe the difference it made...
-05.06.13
I used the first week on my hair and I saw 100% improvement on the condition of my hair. I color, blow dry and use hot rollers and it was looking very dry. After one treatment - I said I am going to have to finish using this 4 week cycle.

Dissapointed
-03.27.13
My hair is not in bad shape, but wanted to keep it in decent condition and primarily treat the ends after a color. Left brittle, not smooth. Hard to get all the product out of the tiny tubes. Definitely not worth the price. Wish I would have saved the box, would have returned.

Helped my hair
-03.19.13
My hair is softer now. I damaged my hair from bleaching and highlighting it too much. My hair was really dry, now it feels very healthy. While using this product I tried not to wah my hair everyday and I didnt use heat tools that often either. I think that helped a lot. I feel this product really helped my hair, but I wish there was more of the product. For the price I think you should get a little bit more bang for your buck.

Disappointed :(
-03.04.13
Quick Take: drying, no improvement, disappointment
I've tried just about everything on my poor damaged bleached hair. I read so many good reviews and decided to try it. After finishing my last treatment I saw no improvement in my hair. If nothing it left my hair even more dried out than before. Simply just didn't do anything for me :(

Quick Take: good value, repairing, silky
Yesterday I completed my 4th week (accidentally skipped a week) and I couldn't be happier! I've been using this weekly with a gentle clarifying shampoo then this treatment. My hair feels like silk and is so shiny! My stylist was shocked after the improvement after 3 treatments!

-02.04.13
Quick Take: good value, smooth, repairing
This product is amazing! I got my hair highlighted about three weeks and did a keratin complex treatment the day of and then this treatment the past two weeks and my hair feels like silk. My hair is on the thinner side and bleached often, I'm trying to turn the health around of my hair and this seems to be doing a fabulous job after only two weeks!

Softer and smoother
-02.02.13
I have mid-length hair and each tube is just enough! I finished my second treatment yesterday and my hair is already much smoother and softer! My ends still feel a little dry but over all it has been a great addition!

I really wanted to like this product and have it work for me. I also gave one to my friend and we both had the same experience.
I made my hair dry, matty, tangled...horrible!

Fantastic!
-01.18.13
Quick Take: good value
I am a BIG fan of this restore recovery regimen! I have straight, fine, & highlighted hair. My hair often gets dried-out and some breakages. I just finished the 4th week (and by the way, the package supplies an extra packet for a 5th week). It truly is a great value and super easy to use. This product definitely delivers and I even used my regular separate-brand shampoo and conditioner throughout the process. I did each treatment on a Sunday night, shampooing like normal and then used 1 tube as my conditioner. I used a thick comb and distributed it all over. I didn't notice a huge difference right away but I did start getting compliments right after the first treatment.
Overall, It didn't do too much for my fly-aways but it left my hair feeling and looking much healthier! Also, I have been using the leave-in Living Proof restore conditioner a few times a week. I recommend both if you're looking for a nice change up.

Hang in there
-01.17.13
The first 3 treatment left the ends of my hair "gooey" -- no matter how much I rinsed it felt like I didn't rinse enough. But after the 4th usage, FABULOUS! My hair feels and looks great, so much bounce, really holds a curl, and looks much healthier. I'll definitely use again.

Quick Take: good value
After years of coloring (still do that!) and about three years of highlighting - my hair felt like straw. Tried multiple products and am now using Living Proof. Ordered the restore recovery regimen tubes, used once a week, and my hair feels great. Also use the shampoo and creme, shiny, soft hair is back. I will continue these products and lose the highlighting!

In love with my hair!
-12.12.12
Quick Take: amazing
Wow! I have used so many products that claim results and this by far is the only one that has delivered! I have coarse, wavy, color treated hair that is impossible to tame. This product made my hair soft and smooth in just two uses. In four uses my hair is like new! Super soft, sleek, and most of all frizz free! A lot of accomplishment for my unruly hair!

Love at first use!
-12.05.12
Quick Take: amazing, miracle cure, quick fix for dry hair
I absolutely love this product. I first used it as a sample and saw improvement in my hair with just that one use. I decided to purchase the full-sized product and have seen even more extensive results. If you have dry, damaged hair, this is a miracle worker for making it more soft, shiny and manageable.

Got myself a second set already
-12.03.12
I have used this because of a magazine article.. It does feel slightly dry for some reason after each use but I think it's because my water is hard - and mixed with its protein-rich ingredients - after another wash with regular shampoo and voila, my hair felt wonderful! After using the entire regimen, even the knotty, dry and brittle hairs at the nape of my neck became soft, manageable and pleasant.
Bought another box to back up for those times my hair might become lifeless again.
