L'oreal Serie Expert Absolut Repair Thermo Repair Cream

The manufacturer promises instant results.  Hair recovers flexibility and is easy to manage. This effect continues even after the fifth wash.  AMIDOCELL technology:  Under heat, molecules penetrate into your hair and instantly restore hair structure.  The derivative of the starch is converted to a flexible film that covers the hair fiber.
My opinion:
Well, I have nothing to say against this product, BUT I love Kerastase Nectar more, if Kerastase is a bit too expensive for your budget, L’Oreal Thermo Repair will do the job almost as good as Kerastase will.  The results are similar to Kerastase, it moisturizes, softens and makes your hair more flexible.  Unfortunately for me, it’s not enough for my hair.  It has a pleasant scent and is very economical to use.

Explore Kerastase

I was thinking of how many of us are really confused with all different series, colors of shampoo bottles and its purpose. So, I've decided to make it clear and simple about Kerastase:
Nutritive – series for a deep conditioning.  There is also a series of Oleo Curl for curly hair and Oleo Relax to maintain straightness and smoothness of your hair.
Resistance - for hair restoration. For damaged and weak hair. This series has a very good thermal protection as well as a series of Volumactive for the volume.  I personally love the thermo protection the most.

Age Premium - prevents the "aging" of hair.  But it doesn’t mean that you have to start using this product once you turn fifty.  Use this deep conditioner each time you color, highlight or perm your hair.  It treats premature aging in addition to our bad ecology.

Reflection - for color-treated and highlighted hair.  This series is more designed for maintaining hair color and shine.

Specifique - for prevention of dandruff and hair loss for all different types of hair.

Soleil – summer series to protect your hair after, before and during sun exposure.

Biotic – Series for good care of your scalp.  It recharges and stimulates beautiful and healthy hair growth.

Noctogenist – This is a night care series. There is no shampoo. 

Nutrients - it is a vitamin for oral use, something like Inneov hair.

Chronologiste – The most famous and the most expensive series, consisting of a masque and special pearls of black caviar.  This series is probably the greatest achievement of Kerastase today.

Homme - Men series. The best care for a man’s hair with a sexy aroma. My husband absolutely loves it.
Hope you liked my research here,

Matrix Biolage Daily Leave-In Tonic

From the manufacturer: Instantly nourishes hair due to a strengthening botanical complex.  The main ingredients of the product are based on extracts, oils of sweet almonds, brown seaweed, hop and other strengthening components.  Tonic contains a derivative of the seeds of the sunflower plant, an antioxidant, and protects hair from UV and harmful influences of the environment. It returns extra shine and health to your dull hair.
My opinion: Lotion wasn’t any help for me.  The first 2 weeks I had little results, and the longer I used it the results became no better.  The combing process was very difficult and hair felt and looked sticky.  I didn’t see or feel any results from this tonic at all, but I absolutely love the aroma my hair has after using it.

Kérastase Reflection Lait Chroma Reflect Radiance Enhancing Milk

Milk for vital color and brightness of colored hair
From the manufacturer: Chroma Reflect Milk possesses a wide spectrum of action:
• Makes colored hair look bright and sated
• Strengthens hair cuticles, reducing the hair loss process.
• Moisturizes and nourishes entire length of hair.
• Creates special protective barriers around each strand to protect against the harmful influence of the environment.
• Normalizes “water in oil” balance of head skin.
• Gives hair tremendous shine and beauty
• Contains UV filter, protecting hair from the negative influences of the sun’s rays.
My opinion: I would rate it as an OKAY product.  Yes, my hair became shinier, but I was really expecting WOW results.  I have to say, however, that my hair wasn’t as dry, and there was less hair loss.  The best part of this product is the delicious sweet berry aroma leaving your hair with a very delicate scent.

Clear Moisture Instant Polishing Prep by Redken for Unisex

My opinion: I am very delighted with this stuff!  Apricot oil, one of the main ingredients of this lotion works miracles.  I have a lot of hair on my head, but they are very thin and hard to comb.  Thanks to Redken, I spray Polishing Prep on my hair 3 times and combing becomes much easier and more enjoyable.  In addition, dried hair becomes not only shiny and manageable, but thicker!  I spread it through the length of my hair without applying it to the roots.  I apply it on damp hair before blow-drying. The "dispenser" is great; it dispenses very small droplets, which makes the product very economical and easy to use.
Thanks,
Rusinka

Moltobene ...BENE Premium Crystal Night Repair Milk

BENE Premium Crystal Night Repair Milk - Regenerating night lotion for hair.  Deeply restores damaged hair, strengthens and promotes hair growth.  Returns your hair’s shine and elasticity while protecting against thermo damages and UV rays. Has a delicate floral aroma.
My opinion:  I love the idea of using it as a night time application. It feels like every part of my body is resting and getting cared for.  Two doses are plenty for long hair if you’re using the dispenser.  I rinsed it off while taking a shower in the morning and got soft, elastic, beautiful hair that lightly smelled like flowers.  Everything promised by the manufacturer came true.
Rusinka with Love,

Kerastase Elixir Ultime - Multifunctional Care for All Hair Types

Kerastase Elixir Ultime - Multifunctional care for all hair types: cleanses the scalp and hair over its entire length, protects against drying out, intensely nourishes and gives the perfect shine.
My opinion:  During the first week, I guess my hair was so dry that it soaked in the oil in only seconds.  I was using this product on vacation, and it did protect my hair from dehydration.  The smell is a little bit too strong for me, but after a day or so I guess I became used to it, it became less sharp and more pleasant.  I didn’t notice any miracles happening with my hair, but I found no minuses either.  So I guess I can say: “its Okay shampoo and milk”
Yours,
Rusinka
