Giovanni VitaPro Fusion Leave in Hair Treatment

Monday, April 16, 2012

Hello Ladies,

Recently, I have become a bit hyper obsessed with my hair. Yes, it’s all because of you girls flaunting your gorgeous hair. I am not exactly blessed in the hair department, just that my hair is quite thick, heavy and wavy but it lacks all that lustre and healthy shine which I so badly crave for. Did I forget to tell you that my hair is really really dry also...?? (Sighs) So after reading Tanveer of Addicted to Blush’s post about this hair treatment, I got this one for myself. I have mixed feelings about this product. It worked very nicely for her hair, but I guess my hair is doomed for this lifetime.

Directions
Spray into clean, damp hair. Leave in. Comb through to distribute evenly and style.

For all Hair Types

Price: Rs. 595 for 147 ml

I tried using this in many different ways. I use 4-5 sprays for my shoulder length hair. The spray applicator makes application a cakewalk. Just spray and comb hair to distribute evenly.

Before Hairwash

When  I used it 2 hours before hair wash, it made my hair a bit oily, but after  the hairwash, my hair was back to being its unruly best. It does help with the frizz but only to some extent, only when I use it before as well as hairwash.

After Hairwash

When I used it after a hairwash on naturally dried hair, it did smoothen my hair and the tangles were also very less. My hair looked and felt much smoother, but the effect lasted only for a day.  

Used on my Mother’s Hair

I used it on my mom’s hair too. My mom had lost all her hair 2 years back due to her chemotherapy and right now, her hair reached her neck. Her hair too, is quite wavy but since its quite short right now, the waves appear more like small curly ringlets. My mom had the most gorgeous hair i.e. jet black, thick, long, heavy and lustrous hair before her illness. When I used it on her hair, it seems to work better for her hair. Her hair becomes more smooth and soft. The ringlets also seem to straighten out and her hair looks like it has been cut in small layers rather then the curls, which she too detests. Let me just say, it works way better for her hair then my hair.

What works for me

  • ·Ease of application - The spray packaging makes applying it very easy. No need to use fingers. Just spray and comb hair to distribute evenly.
  • · No parabens, no silicons, no SLES etc.  it’s fully organic and certified.
  • · Very less quantity is needed. Just 4-5 sprays. This is going to last me for a long time. Maybe 1.5 - 2 years. Absolute value for money. It may look a bit expensive but the quantity needed everytime is very less. I have used it every week, before and after hairwash for almost 3 months now, and the quantity in the bottle still looks the same.
  • ·         Easy to carry. No fear of liquid spilling and leaking while travelling.
What did not work for me
  • It has little benefit for my hair. I have used it in a lot many ways, varying the quantity from 8-10 sprays to 4-5 sprays, but the effect is always the same.
In my opinion, I think it will work great for girls with normal hair. Girls with dry, very dry and frizzy hair may give it a pass. I think I need something really heavy duty to moisturise my hair. Maybe L'Oreal Professional Expert Serie Intense Repair Masque. What do you suggest ?
