Review (1/5): Changes in their ingredients list, added other junk
Using my husbands account.
I've purchased this product around spring '18 used it and it was amazing, talk about hair feeling soft as butter. I mean your fingers, comb, brush or whatever you use will go straight through your hair with ease. I left it in for about a couple hours since I've haven't had a protein treatment in years. But THAT'S how soft, silky smooth it was from root to tip after my first use.
From protein treatments I reviewed and talking to hairstylist I understood that I should use it 1x every 6 weeks but it's truly based off your hair needs. So I decided 1x a month was ok for mine at this point. I purchased and used again in July '18 with similar results but not as silky because I cut the time it set in my hair to a little over 30 mins. Mainly because I didnt want it that soft because my hair is fine but curly, coily and straighten it was like baby hair all over my head although my hair is bra strap length.
I purchased 2 more packs in Aug '18 and noticed the packaging was slightly different. Instead of saying "made with natural coconut oil and monoi" it now reads "made with FAIR TRADE coconut oil and monoi". I then compared them together and noticed it no longer says "Made with natural Vitamin E (Tocopherol)" above the ingredients list either. I continued to read the ingredients list and a couple things have been removed which are: Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) seed oil and whats been added in its place is Tocopheryl Acetate, down the list these other ingredients have been simply added not replacing anything Leuconostoc/Raddish Root Ferment Filtrate, Dimethyl Stearamine.
I said that to say this, my hair personally loved the last ingredient list as it was, but this new list my hair is not okay with because it seems like it's more drying when applying on wet hair. Versus the last packages I used, they glided on and conditioned my hair along with giving it protein. So if I cant find the original ingredients and packaging I'm gonna have to discontinue supporting this product and brand. It was the only thing from palmers that I've used in years. And I told the world (everyone I know) how great it was, bought and gave some out but no more after this.
