Amazing for Frizz!!

First off..i torture my hair...i color it, and heat style it often!I always read reviews about girls who have thick frizzy curly hair...but mine is super thin strands(but TONS of it) wavy and frizzy. This is the best product ive tried so far. Ive used bumble and bumble, paul mitchell, redken, and many many others. Bio silk leaves my hair so soft and managable. I use it as a leave in conditioner every day! If you have hair like mine that tends to frizz no matter what there is also a lightweight finishing balm by Pureology called Nanoworks Shineluxe...its is a shimmering violet in color and smells faintly of roses...it makes every hair color shimmer and look celeb worthy!!! I promise it is worth every penny. they dont have it on folica yet though...so sad...
Pretty good, but...

I was introduced to Silk Therapy by my salon and bought it becuase it's made Farouk, who also make the Chi straightener which is the straightener I have. At first I really loved the product, but then I started to notice that I had lots of split ends ... I know some say that there isn't much alcohol and that it doesn't even touch your hair, but if you are a swimmer (like I am) and you straighten your hair every day (like I do) then it's not the best product. My hair is completely un-dyed right now (I've grown all the colour out) and I just find that this product isn't the best: it definitely had a tendency to dry my hair out. However, if you don't straighten every day it would probably work pretty well.
Excellent Product

After I turned 45, I had to start dying my hair. Hello gray! I noticed that after dying my hair, it started completely drying out, losing elasticity, breaking and getting much thinner.
I switched from product to product to product. I have always used professional products since my Mom is a beautician. What worked before I dyed my hair, I found out, was not producing the results. My hair has always been very healthy. Extremely healthy.
One of my girlfriends recommended that I use Biosilk to try and combat the dryness and breaking.
Wow! What a difference. I use this product after my hair naturally dries. I start at the ends, about a dime size, and "pat" the ends of my hair. After that, I put about a quarter size drop in and work it up. Brushing my hair with a boars hair brush after I have applied the Biosilk to distribute it evenly. I don't need it on my scalp. I leave this in for a couple of days. It absorbs and does not leave my hair greasy.
I have never had a problem with my hair not shining but I have noticed that since using it, my hair combs out much easier, therefore, not as much breakage has occurred.
My hair is much softer and a lot less dry. I live in a valley in California where we have very little humidity and a lot of air pollution. Fortunately, our water is not that hard. Pollution and low humidity are rough on your hair. I also use a filter on my shower to try and elminate most of the chlorine.
I have noted on this website that most woman that are using this product are using heating tools and trying to eliminate frizzies, with great results I might add.
I am writing this to let other women who have straight long hair know that this also works great on our hair. I was thinking about cutting my hair shorter because of the damage. Now I don't have to.
I have only used this product for 2 months so, thus far, I have not had my hair dry out using this product. There is such a thing as over-conditioning your hair, which will cause dryness. Any conditioner will do that.
I am not worried, like a lot of consumers, about the alcohol in the product. Most hair products contain small amounts of alcohol.
I have even used this product on my boyfriend, who also has long hair, not my length, but sholder length, with great results. He likes it very much.
I highly recommend Biosilk Silk Therapy for all types of hair.
Healthy Hair!

I have thick, wavy, and frizzy hair so I straighten it almost daily. But I noticed my hair becoming slightly fragile and some split-ends occuring so I immediately stopped straightening it until I found biosilk. It protected my hair from the heat damage of the flat iron and split-ends and not to mention it makes it silky soft with no frizz. i'm very satisfied with it my hair has never looked healthier. To have healthy hair I reccomend;
1. Using Biosilk Shampoo & Conditioner
2. Applying Biosilk Silk Therapy to damp hair
3.(If Styling)Using Corioliss Pro Straightner/Curler
4. Adding a very small amount of Biosilk Silk Therapy after styling to eliminate frizz & add additional shine
*I also want to add; After your done straightening/curling while your hair is still hot use a hairdryer with the cool-air feature to gentley cool your hair off because when its still hot it can easily get a wave or crease.
Great Stuff!

I have been using this product for over a year now and it has tamed my naturally wavy (and somewhat frizzy) locks...keeps the frizz down, smooths out the kinkier waves and gives my hair a beautiful shine. I have some dryness and damage but I don't want to cut it so I dry it naturally, apply the product about three inches from the scalp and then curl or iron with gorgous results.
.nice. but not absolutely amazed

I have long course african-american hair and I usually spend a lot of money to maintain my hair; I've only tried this product once so far and I am pleased with the texture but a little bit disappointed with the lack of shine :( It smells great and controls my frizz more so...overall I would purchase it again if I have a coupon! I get about the same results with very sexy shampoo by VS...
Smells good

I bought a bottle of this years back and it seemed to work well with the flat iron. But realized it contained alcohol, so I stopped using it. Great smell but seemed to dry hair out fast, had to reapply to many times.

I noticed too, that many people complained of hair burning when using Silk Therapy in conjunction with a hair straightener. This is because it has slick (read: oily) ingredients that conduct heat. Rub it into your hair POST straightening and you'll be fine. Try to use a wet spray in your hair (hopefully alcohol free) to blowdry/straighten. The moisture in a spray will be a nice buffer for the heat.
I love Biosilk, it makes my hair look and feel SO healthy!

Your comments haven't mentioned how wonderful this stuff is on grey hair, so I will! Everyone knows how grey hair usually feels course and dry, but Biosilk Cure makes mine feel like soft, virgin hair again! I put a little bit on my whole head of hair when it's wet, then a little more in the area where my hair is mostly grey. The smell is nice, but a little too strong (I find that in most hair products, actually). Now that I've found this super, wonderful, miracle product, I'll die if they ever stop making it!
Repeated Usage Dried Hair
Reviewer:

from Atlanta, GA USA Sat Jan 02 2010
Because of the great reviews I used Biosilk after each shampoo. I only used a small dime size amount on damp hair and after two months, I noticed that my hair began to feel dry and stiff. Biosilk at first made my hair feel very soft to the touch and shiny however after repeated usage, I discovered the ingredients did not suit my type of hair and scalp. It does not work for my type 4b natural hair, and I decided to switch to an alcohol free heat protectant and therapy.
Love this product

Works well on my hair, which has a curl relaxer in it. I mix it together with other products. One of the products is phyto 9 creme de jour.
The Fragrance Doesn't Last!

I have used this product for years. There are many similar products out there but the intoxicating fragrance was always the selling point for me. The last bottle I bought is not even half empty and yet the fragrance is COMPLETELY GONE! I feel gipped and will not purchase again.
Recommended all the way from UK!!

I live in the UK but i was over in Canada recently for a wedding, the lady styling my hair suggested that i use Biosilk to help eliminate frizz. I was only visiting a short while in Canada so i did not manage to buy some whilst i was there, so alternatively the only way was for me to order direct from overseas!!.. I have used this product and it is amazing i apply it onto wet hair and after blow drying my hair does not need straightning a little really does go a long way.

This stuff is like GLUE -- it takes a couple of washes with soap and water to even get it off your hands, so can you imagine how it coats the hair? Don't be fooled -- the ingredients are not favorable to hair health. It's a strong, sealed coating that will build up in no time. And like another review said, too much alcohol will dry it out as well. Scary stuff and plan to return my bottle.
Mediocre Product

I feel that this product is not better than the hair styling creams found in drug stores. Biosilk also doesn't provide much shine.
i love this stuff

i have pretty thick...long relaxed hair and i tried this product after a few ladies suggested it to me. The other reviewer was correct in saying this product is not intended to provide heat protection, but it definitely does what its supposed to do. It smooths your hair, makes it shiny and more manageable and is great for use with a a flat iron. ive used this product followed by the Megasilk heat protection spray before blowdrying and the results are fantastic! you get the best of both worlds: protection from heat damage and silky shiny hair. The two products compliment eachother very well. (PS o use pantene relaxed and natural shampoo and conditioner as part of my regimine weekly). Hope my review helps! happy styling :o)
best hair product!

okay so I havent purchaced the product but i have used it once , and yes it does make your hair feel absoluty wonderful ! It gives a incredible shine and holds down frizz . I would say its better then chi silk infusion mainly becuase it smells better ! BUT , in the long run it CAN dry your hair out becuase of the alcohal . yes sad but true . so my advice to you is maybe not use it EVERYDAY but otherwise it is really a amazing product ! I love it !
It works pretty well

It does protect my hair from humidity and frizz, but the downside is that it does not protect against heat.
When I put biosilk in, my hair is incredibly Shiny, and soft, but my ends seem a little crunchy. I prefer CHI silk infusion over this one. But I do like it and recommend it. It has a great smell.
Good but contains dangerous ingredients

It smells great, bottle last forever, eliminates frizz, hair looks healthy etc BUT contains PARABENS and ALCOHOL so in the long run it's not a healthy product.
