My hair is brittle and somewhat thin, and I get dandruff every now and then after having taken strong medication when I was a kid. I've been struggling to restore my hair and scalp. Most products do me bad, but this one does no damage and makes my hair look shinnier. Helps with frizzing and smells nice too. I don't think it does much for the health of my hair, in relation to thiness and brittleness, but it doesn't give me any bad reactions like other hair products have. It also seems to last and it doesn't change in scent throughout the day (I feel some hair products smell great initially but after a day's activities, change and might even smell bad--not this one). I was using their coconut oil before but switched to this one (because it was making my dandruff get worse) and I'm not going back! The texture looks like vaseline, feels like a thick gel initially but melts like oil in your hands. I like it and have been using it for about 3 years.
