Fly aways – I have them. Sometimes I don’t feel like putting mousse or gel in my hair which means after a couple hours, my hair is a mess.
While walking through KMart one day, I noticed a display featuring John Frieda’s new Full Repair line and the Flyaway Tamer caught my eye.
The tube looks like one you’d see for clear mascara and, in fact, the applicator looks like a big mascara wand. Application is supposed to be easy – you just brush it through your hair.
It is easy to use, but I wasn’t a fan of the smell. It reminds me of a hair salon – that strong chemical smell from all the hair products inside. The smell sticks to your hair for quite along time, actually. Here’s a before and after:
As you can see, the product works pretty well on flyaways. I didn’t find it to be greasy or sticky and other than the smell, I like it. After a few hours, I did need to reapply, but that wasn’t a big deal. If you put too much in your hair, however, it does dry kind of cloudy and flaky, so be careful!
I’ll probably continue to use the product I have, but I’m not sure if I would purchase it again. It’s a small size and could be kept in a purse to use when out and about to tame hair.
John Frieda Full Repair Touch-Up Flyaway Tamer retails for $9.99. When I purchased mine, there was a $1 off coupon on the package.
