Excellent product

Really straightens out my hair AND it doesn't dry out the scalp.

Great for thick, frizzy hair

I've been using Phytodefrisant Straightening Balm for a very long time. It is great for thick, curly hair. I also love that it is unscented because I can't handle scented products.

Love this product!!!

I love how this product has cut my blow dry time in half and made my hair softer and frizz-free in the process. I use this with the serum and they both work really well together. I’m able to go an extra day of not washing, it has helped maintain my hair’s texture.

Good for frizz

I've been using this product for about 15 years. I think it's been reformulated at least a few years ago. It did not used to say "heat activated," so I used to use it also when I air-dried. I still use it for air drying sometimes and it does tame frizz well but doesn't cause any straightening which is fine. I prefer waves these days. When I do blow dry or flat iron, it does make straightening easier, but what I don't like about it is that it is not at all moisturizing. I definitely need additional products for smoothing and moisturizing my hair. If you have finer hair, or hair that isn't dry, this may work perfectly just on it's own.

Great for Summer

This has been my go to anti frizz product for years. Once the humidity of summer kicks in, this is the only thing that keeps my hair from becoming a flat, frizzy mess. I have very thick, coarse, slightly wavy hair but Phytodefrisant keeps it sleek and smooth without weighing my hair down or making it feel like I have a lot of product in my hair.

Completely changed my hair

Just repurchased for a 4th time and will continue to do so. I haven’t found anything else that works as well for my porous, below shoulder length fine hair. It really smooths my hair our (naturally wavy and frizzy since I moved to a humid climate). I love to use this with phytolisse. It does not break me out thank goodness, and it offers some heat protection—actually the heat activates the product. Love this!!!!! Not sticky or greasy or heavy.

Phytodefrisant is FABULOUS!

My colorist told me to get this if I wanted my hair to look the way it does when I leave her. I did get it & it does look great when I use it. I love it!

THE BEST PRODUCT!

I have been using Phyto Botanical Straightening Balm for more than 20 years! I have very curly hair, but now wear it straight, using an iron. It makes my hair silky, smooth, unfrizzy, natural and healthy. I would be devastated if this product was ever discontinued. My savior!!

Amazing

I was tired of keratin straightening treatments every 3 months and dealing with the fumes. But now that I found PHYTO, the nightmare is over, it works really good on my hair, helps me a lot with controlling volume and frizz and loosens up my curls.

Pretty good

Although I don’t think this is the miracle product that others do, it does seem to help. At first, it wasn’t doing much, and I started applying a little more and that helped.

Great tamer!

I apply this every night after washing and conditioning my hair. My hair is very curly and can be frizzy. It says it is activated by heat, but it keeps my hair calmer and less frizzy even with no heat.

PHYTO Straightening Balm

I bought this at the salon where I get my hair cut. The stylist said to add oil to it. It moisturizes and makes my hair healthy. This will always be a daily staple. I add it after I’ve dried my hair a little

Like it a lot!

I really like this! I like the way it makes my hair feel, and it does what it says it does. I have a keratin treatment in my hair, but even with that it needs help. This is good and will probably buy again.

Phytodefrisant botanical straightening balm

It does a good job of smoothing hair that is mildly frizzy/wavy from humidity. Don't use a lot and rake thru hair from roots to ends. If u use too much it will weigh hair down.

Not what I expected.

This product does the job but after too much work. It did not soften my hair, it actually made it thicker and harder to style.

Worth Every Penny!

I have tried numerous products that would keep my wavy hair straight, especially in humid weather, but none have ever worked until this one! On the days I don't wash my hair I simply blow the ends with a round brush and it is as smooth as the day before! I have never been able to skip days washing my hair til now and love it better the second day, not to mention all the time I save.

Phytodefrisant

I have used this product for years on my fine and very frizzy hair. Nothing compares to how this tames those frizzies and leaves hair with a nice smooth texture. Doesn't weigh down hair at all. Wonderful product !!!
