So far loving the Unove range products :) I only need a tiny amount of this and my hair feels so soft after washing. I have initial reaction to propylene glycol. But after a few uses, my skin got used to it. Looking to try more of their other products.
Update: It has also helped reduce my hair fall significantly! Really impressed by it
I thought it wasnt gonna work on my fine low porosity dry hair, but gues what IT DID, i use a tiny dot and it does wonders for my hair i leave it for 5 minutes or more and its AMAZING!!, also lasts for everr!!
