I recently found this Garnier product in my local Target and decided to purchase it. I had read previous reviews about another similar Garnier product called "The Blow Dry Perfector Kit," and was completely horrified by all the reviews I read. I thank my lucky stars that I did not try that product out myself, otherwise I am quite convinced that I would be bald. The vast majority of the people who used "The Blow Dry Perfector Kit" had a terrible experience which resulted in having the product completely ruin their hair. That being said, this product is something new that actually delivers promising results -not fried, broken, or damaged hair, but instead, it helps with giving you sleek, smooth, frizz-free hair. Not to mention SOFT hair!
My hair type is baby-fine hair that has a wave to it, and I don't have very much of it at all. I have bleached highlights in my hair & its shoulder-length. My hair also tends to frizz in the humidity, and I wrestle my hair with a blow-dryer and flat iron daily to get it completely straight. I picked this product up because of two reasons: 1) it did NOT say anywhere on the package that is "wasn't safe" for chemically treated/colored/highlighted hair, and 2) the product said that it contained Argan Oil, which I've always had great results with in the past.
Since I have such thin hair, I decided to first try out a pea-sized amount (well, more like the amount of 2 peas). I ran this product through damp, towel-dried hair. It had a creamy consistency and looked almost like a lotion for your hair. The scent was pleasant, not over-bearing in the least. I then blow dried my hair and was very pleased with the results. It made my hair very smooth without that "greasy" or heavy feeling. Since I have such fine hair, too much of any product seems to make it greasy/weight it down, but this hair creme certainly did not. I do think, however, that if you were to use TOO much of this product, that it might become greasy. It also made my hair feel very soft/supple, and it also seemed to completely tame the little frizzies & fly-aways that I have throughout my hair, or especially wherever I part my hair. Again, please note that this product is NOT the same as "The Blow Dry Perfector Kit" that had all the horrible reviews (which contains two bottles/products) -this is simply a leave-in styling aid that is like a creme/lotion made for your hair. This product is definitely worth a try!

I love love this product!!!! I am bi racial (black and white) and after getting my hair wet it is usually very frizzy. So I picked this up at target for like 3 dollars and I used it after treating my hair with extra virgin coconut oil and shampooing and conditioning with olive oil brand shampoo and aussie 3 minute miracle. After this process I used this product to blow dry and it turned out beautifully probably about 70% less frizzy and this made flat ironing sooooo much easier!!!! I will be using this religiously from now on.

For a $5 hair care product, this is definitely the best!! I have used other straightening creams, cheap and salon expensive ones, and this definitely works for me.
I have dry, thick, and frizzy hair. I wash my hair with Tresememe shampoo and conditioner. I use the flowing products on my wet hair: straightening cream, Infusium 23 leave-in conditioner, and a John Frieda anti-frizz serum. When I used the other straightening creams, and then used a flat iron to straighten it, my hair was still dry and frizzy. Of course, the dryness and frizziness got worse as the day went on.
I brought this product on a whim. I didn't know about it. I already was using a salon brand product, and the suave and John Frieda straightening creams that were sitting on my book shelf weren't working either. The first time I used it, I saw and felt the difference. My hair was soft, manageable, and remained straight throughout the day. My sister even noticed the difference!!! I wash my hair every other day because of the dryness. When I did wash my hair after using this project, but did not add any products to my hair and let it dry naturally, I noticed that my hair was still soft and manageable. I will continue to us this product, in combination with the other products, and hopefully it continues to give me the same results. I definitely would recommend this product!!
Honest reviews on Garnier Blow Dry Perfector Straightening Balm, Sleek and Shine, 5.1
I bought this after reading so many good reviews and was hoping it would cut down on my blow dry time and provide smoother results for my wavy hair (I have VERY fine/thin hair that is a combo of wavy and straight-ish and frizzes easily, but is able to be strightened with some work). I don't know what i'm doing wrong, but I can't seem to get this to work for me. I've tried using varying amounts and still don't see where it does anything for my particular hair. It doesn't speed up my drying time at all, and I feel as if it almost makes my hair frizzier and leaves it with a weird texture, not at all smooth and silky. It also didn't hold up to humidity whatsoever. I'll stick to using Moroccan oil serum because it does help with speeding up dry time and providing nice texture (so long as you don't use too much serum). Just wanted something that would help straighten it better so it wouldn't be completely necessary to use a flat iron anymore.
However, I DO like to use this when I wear my hair in it's natural waves. Since it does have some argan oil in it, it helps a little with the frizzies, but I especially like it because it helps straighten out the waves a little so they're more "beachy". It helps softly define them and when I use it in combination with my leave in conditioner, I can leave it air dry and get nice results.
It's not expensive and there's alotta people who love it, so it's worth a shot. If nothing else, most stores will let you return something if you don't like it.

I have very frizzy hair, especially after washing. This product actually worked ; it calmed my hair and made it look stright, in fact I didn't have to use a flat iron. So yeah, it is a great product which works excellently. The price is really affordable too for what the product does.
