Waste of money

I have a sneaking suspicion that Vavoom has changed their formula. I used to be a faithful user and loved this brand, but they seemed to be lacking in their luster lately. I bought this upon the recommendation of a stylist, and since I blow dry and flat ion every time I wash my hair, I thought it would be a good investment. It was a bit pricey, but I figured it was worth a shot. The first thing I noticed is that the pump container doesn't dispense product evenly, at all, and the product ends up gumming around on the dispenser. It's very messy packaging and I don't care for it. The one good thing is that the top can be turned to lock it closed, so there is little waste or drying out of the product. The formula itself has a lovely gold shimmer to it, and smelled pretty nice. It spread into my damp hair easily enough, but didn't seem to silken it any when I tried to comb it through. I blow dried with my Rusk dryer as usual, and to to be honest, the only difference I could see was that my hair was a little sticky when I was finished. I had hoped that the gold shimmer bits in the product would have given my hair extra shine, but that was not the case. My hair did not behave any differently. and certainly did not look or feel as though it had been protected from the heat styling. I have hair that is very prone to dryness and since I heat style, I do not think this one will work for me. I really hope Vavoom as a brand goes back to its original formulas, because I have not been at all happy with the changes they have made. I used to consider it to be a luxury hair product brand, but now I do not think that it is any better than the average brand on the market. What a shame. — 5 months, 1 week ago

Didn't seem to do anything.

I bought it on clearance at Ulta, hoping to prevent split ends from blowdrying my hair, but no such luck. Didn't seem to "protect" my hair from heat damage at all, nor did it help with styling. The texture is kind of like a soupy Jello. The bottle is nice looking and easy to use. It didn't harm my hair at all, but I personally wouldn't buy this again. — 5 months, 1 week ago
