Arvazallia Hydrating Argan Oil Hair Mask and Deep Conditioner for Dry or Damaged Hair – 8.45 Oz

As Close to a MIRACLE PRODUCT for Hair as it Gets. FIRST, A NOTE ABOUT HAIR PRODUCTS CONTAINING ALCOHOL:Fatty alcohols also known as “oily” condition your locks. Here’s a tip: say yes, to the alcohols that start with “c” and “s.”Cetearyl alcoholCetyl alcoholStearyl alcohol”It’s easy to see why “alcohols” are confusing to the average cosmetic label reader. People misinterpret ingredients that have alcohol in their name to be the volatile alcohol that we’re most familiar with (ethanol). But, as mentioned above, fancier fatty alcohols, such as cetyl alcohol are not drying; instead, they are actually conditioning to hair and skin.””Cetearyl alcohol is a white, waxy, solid material in the form of flakes. It is oil soluble, but it is not water-soluble. It is a mixture of fatty alcohols. An alcohol in this sense is not a fermented mixture; it is a chemical compound of a certain molecular structure based on carbon and oxygen. Fatty alcohols were originally prepared from fats and oils by hydrolysis, which produces fatty acids. These were then hydrogenated to form fatty alcohols. More efficient forms of hydrogenation enable fatty alcohols to be formed directly from triglycerides (vegetable oils). Cetearyl alcohol is a wonderful emulsifier. In creams and lotions, it supports the main emulsion system and gives texture to the product. In conditioners, it creates a thickening effect. Cetearyl alcohol in combination with other ingredients in the formula (such as triethanolamine and stearic acid) forms an emulsion. This stops the oil and water from separating. They break down easily when applied to allow the lovely ingredients to benefit the skin/hair. Its emulsifying quality enables effective fresh ingredients to be emulsified. Cetearyl alcohol is used across our entire range of fresh products as an emulsifier. The result is an effective product, which detangles the hair, leaving it with shine and excellent condition.”AND NOW, ONTO MY REVIEW:I decided to try some hair mask products, and in my search, I stumbled across several reviews of Arvazallia and what appeared to be legit before and after pictures. I also noticed this product had an AMAZING introductory price on Amazon. So I figured–why the hell not? I bought the hair conditioning mask and the oil treatment.After purchasing, I received several follow up emails from Arvazallia, who appear to be extremely invested in the satisfaction of their customers. Shorty after that, the product arrived in the mail. Simple, easy to use packaging that wasn’t leaking (plus!) and it smelled HEAVENLY! I’ve tried other argan products in the past (will review them eventually as well) but none have smelled this wonderful. Between the great price and the fabulous scent, I was hoping the product would perform.I have since used the hair mask 4 times (twice a week since it arrived) and have used the oil treatment every day for 2 weeks. If your hair isn’t as treacherous as mine, you could probably use the hair mask once a week or twice a month or once a month or whatever suits your hair care needs. The treatment only takes 5 minutes, however, due to how damaged my hair is, I did my treatments: 30 minutes, overnight, 30 minutes, overnight. I figured . . . why not? Might be overkill if you hair is generally healthy, though. The oil I used daily on the ends of my hair only, which gave a nice immediate improvement in appearance.Things I love about this product: Smells fantastic, easy to use, leaves hair smooth and manageable, perfect packaging means no leaks that waste the product (considering how often this happens with beauty products, it’s worth mentioning). Quality and Value are also worth mentioning, at least at the price I bought this at. The price was unbeatable compared to similar products and a little goes a long way, so I can see this lasting me a long time. The mask may go a little quicker than the oil, only because so little oil is needed for the hair and you get so much of it, but also because I am using the mask twice a week which is probably not necessary for most people. However, I did notice that the first time I used the mask, my hair seemed to soak it all in so much that I needed to use quite a bit, but after that, the moisture in my hair was so improved that I needed much less conditioner on subsequent applications.It’s also worth mentioning that my results are NOT due to suddenly conditioning my hair every day when I wasn’t before. I have been doing a deep treatment conditioning of my hair for months now in the same manner and using hair oils for a couple months now (and I’ve always only washed my hair once a week–before you say eww, this is actually REALLY healthy for your hair.) Those products DID give me results, however, I would say that this product did for my hair in 2 weeks what those products took 4 months to do for me, and I think by this point I was capped out on what those products could do for me. I also had to use a detangler then, but I no longer need one! So . . . yeah, I guess I’m a fan of Arvazallia now!That said, what I find impressive and what you find impressive may differ. My hair problems might also be different from yours. My hair is INSANELY dry and the dead ends have gone to epic extremes, so my hair needed this.All that said, I will now let the before and after results speak for themselves. Check the customer images for more, along with details about how I take my before and after pictures (always on product-free, residue-free, naturally air-dried hair).

Really works. I used this product to fix some damage that I started noticing on my hair, especially on the hair around my face. I’m pretty sure the culprit was overuse of my straightener (which I use to create waves) and using too high of a temperature. I used this product along with the following other techniques, and I found that almost all of the damage was corrected in a couple weeks:—I turned down the heat on my straightener and only used it every other day, just touching up as needed on off days. I also have been doing the hair around my face last when I use my straight iron so that hopefully those sections only get hit with heat once. I think that previously I had been going over those strands multiple times as I was creating waves.—I got more serious about heat protectant, especially on the damaged areas.—I have been using this product every other wash. It’s a bit of a pain because you are supposed to wash your hair, then towel dry and apply this while still damp, and then rinse it out. But I really think it’s worth the effort.

One use and I already feel better. I’ve got quite a bit of damage from coloring my hair over the last few years. My hair was starting to become constantly dry, frizzy, and tangled, especially at the ends. I was starting to become a bit miserable. After one use of this hair mask, I already feel so much better! My hair is smoother, more moisturized, and smells amazing. I definitely need to continue using the product to see my hair repair overtime, but so far so good! And this product is so much cheaper than the high-end hair mask products out there. This is the way to go!

My go-to. I have medium course, but pretty porous, 2b-3a curls and waves that have been bleached blonde. Needless to say, I need moisture. I heard argan oil may help so I decided to try this out.Before I tried it, with plain conditioner, my hair was so dry that it would constantly knot at the ends and in the back of my head. I hated getting my hair touched up at the salon because even if I brushed it out beforehand, it would very quickly re-knot by the time my hairdresser touched it.Once I incorporated this mask into my routine, ALONG WITH regular trimming and a separate argan oil (mixed into my styling products), I’ve seen major improvements in the hydration of my hair. The knotting has drastically reduced (not completely gone away) and overall my hair is a lot healthier. I credit this product in part, I also credit my argan oil that I mix into my styling products. As an added bonus.This hair mask a very pleasant smell for me, not too strong, it’s a great bang for your buck as well. After shampooing, I add a good amount to my hair, focusing on my ends. I take that time to detangle. I leave it in for at least another few minutes to soak in. Then I rinse and condition with my normal conditioner.No complaints here, it does what I hoped it would. Hope it works for you, too!

Coarse, Dry, Aging, Dye-Damaged Hair Fixed. Follow directions to enjoy a resurrection of your coarse, frizzy, dry, damaged locks. Enjoy moist, shiny, rich, soft, flexible, curl-able hair again. I need to use it each time I wash my hair, but it doesn’t take a lot. It is worth it. Scent is neutral. Not a big deal either way. (I like Kendra’s equivalent product too.)Those of you with long, super damaged hair will only need to cut off the very worst hair on the ends, not all of it or half of it. I bet this will work fabulously on tightly coiled curly hair, commonly naturally dry.

Soft hair. This is my second time buying this product. It has left my hair with excellent results. It makes my hair extremely soft. My routine usually includes using shampoo, then a small amount of this product on my entire head (I suggest not put more than a quarter size because it will make it greasy depending on the hair). I let it sit for 2 mins and then rinse out. I will then put conditioner on my ends and rinse that out. I suggest using it every other wash or every wash (if you wash your hair once or twice a week).

Me dejó el cabello muy sedoso, manejable . Si vale la pena comprar

Smells good, works well. I recommend trying this mask, and I’m delighted to explain why!First, it smells nice. The description I’m about to give may seem off-putting, but trust me when I say that is all me and my skill in description, not the product. The scent is, for lack of a better description, “sophisticated bubblegum.” There is a top note that is sweet and smells a bit like lotus, hence the bubblegum, but then there’s warmth to it, with something slightly woody and herbal, and a gentle but not powdery musk base. It smells good, like sniff-your-hair good, but it’s not overpowering.Then, the slip! Yes, there are -cones in this product, hence only using it once or twice a week. I know as a curly person I’m supposed to rear back in horror, bare my teeth, and hiss if a product that has -cones comes near me, but y’all, I’m color-treated and porous. I want some sealage! Furthermore, I’m thinking that if you’re trying to comb out a situation—and I’m talking matting, I’m talking gum, I’m talking creepy-crawlies, I’m betting the slip in this would stand up and take a bow after just sliding all your troubles away.Finally, the results. As y’all know, sometimes you need protein, sometimes you need moisture, and sometimes you need to stay away from both—protein making you brittle, or humectants like glycerin that’ll either suck the moisture back out of your hair shaft or suck so much in from humid air that you’re either electrifying the world with static or turning into a swamp poodle. Yes, I have been to those places and it is lonely and frizzy. This, however, is not a protein mask or a moisturizing mask, it’s a sealing mask. Yes, you can use protein or moisture before you use this, but this is just going to lock that underneath it and to your hair. If you’re looking for a good mask to layer on your ends, for example, here you go!Buy and enjoy!

Best deep conditioner I have tried. This is the best deep conditioner I have ever tried. This conditioner made my hair go from really dry and brittle to soft and manageable, in just a few uses. I recommend this deep conditioner to anyone. And this smells amazing.My hair is bleached and color treated and was in need of some serious help. This deep conditioning mask the answer. Will definitely be purchasing this again.

Works better than the $30 well known brand. I’m not sure why the negative reviews?? I used a clarifying shampoo prior to use, squeezed excess moisture out of my hair then applied about a shot glass sized amount and combed it through, popped a shower cap on and finished my shower routine before rinsing. Easy as that, I do the same thing with every single conditioner I use, so no extra effort on my part. I have thin, high-porosity, curly/wavy, fuzzy hair without products. This made my hair smooth, shiny, and overall healthier looking. Brittany with the good hair, if you will, haha. Smell wasn’t overwhelming, or bad for that matter. Because of reviews stating it caused hairless, I was sure not to massage it onto my scalp. Those reviews almost scared me off! Should I experience this, I will certainly update my review. Don’t be afraid. Buy it. Try it. It’s fantastic and affordable. If you don’t love it, it’s pretty cheap, so not great loss.
