Well, I bought a product that is technically for blondes, but I knew that it would work on anyones hair since it had no tinting or anything that enhanced color or shades or anything of that nature, so I went for purchasing this product online anyways. The funny thing is, I only ended up with it because I had to order a certain dollar limit of products from the place I bought it from to get free shipping, and it popped up as a suggestion. When I read the reviews from other users, I decided it sounded like one of those fun hair products for the summer, when my hair tends to get pretty big and frizzy anyways.
In the summer, I don’t really battle my hair’s natural waves as much because of the humidity, instead I like to play with the waves a bit and play them up, wearing looser, more fun styles rather than sleek ones where my hair ends up looking like a broom anyways if it’s straightened. The John Frieda Tousled Tresses product is a fine mist wax that is supposed to help texturize and separate the waves in your hair. It goes on like a hair spray, except it’s not an aerosol can, instead it’s one that uses forced air and behaves like aerosol.
I like the fact that you mist it on where you need it, whereas, with a pomade or a gel, you have to spray it out in your hand and then rub it through the sections of your hair, making it hard to get an even distribution, especially if you’re using it on dry hair, which is how you should use this fine misted wax.
This product imparts a TON of shine to your hair, however you have to be very careful not to over spray it, because your hair will look extremely greasy if you put too much product on it. Instead, I would maybe start off with two or three squirts, misted in a large surface area, and go from there – it’s that concentrated. I could see some people thinking it’s way too greasy, but that’s definitely because they used too much.
It does what it says though. It separates and defines, although it may weight the hair down a bit, which I think would be my only complaint. It’s a very fun product for summer, and I’ll be using it on my dry hair when it just looks dry frizzy and borin, in hopes that this will add a little more shape and texture to it. Only other complaint is, why isn’t this one made for brunettes too? We like to have a little fun!
