I bought the travel size to try this out before buying the full size and i’m glad I did. I have noticed no real difference in how much moisture my hair retains or holds. It’s also a little heavy and i find myself using a clarifying shampoo more often when i use the briogeo mask & leave in combo.
great for my low porosity, greasy roots/dry ends hair. makes it super soft when applied after shampoo!
I’ve heard from other people that it may cause hair loss? So as a preventative measure, I only use it once a week.
