Moisturized my hair better than drugstore brands, but wayyy overrated. The smell is overwhelming, it's overpriced, and I don't like the packaging.

Use a small amount of Humectress on dry hair as a leave in conditioner, it's a great solution to static-attack fly away hair. Can't speak on its behalf as a rinse out, but it's definitely on my...

Ugh, this made my hair less soft and more tangled! I have somewhat wavy, somewhat straight Asian black hair. And this conditioner is terrible!

I was excited to try this conditioner based on the reviews here, but I was disappointed. Humectress has a pleasant scent but did not moisturize my hair as I had hoped. In fact, I think the mineral...
