"Great product!"

— Juli H. (5/5)

Spritzer doesn’t work

"I would probably like this product, but the sprayer does not work. I have to pour it into my palms then scrunch through my hair. That makes it very difficult to use and defeats the purpose of having a spray-in product. Maybe I got a defective package. Regardless, I will not buy again unless I can be assured that this problem is resolved."

— Teresa (3/5)
