Since we mostly all agree that Sebastian 9 is an awesome treatment, I'd like to give a comparison to the real one and Sally's Generic Brand. First of all, I'd like to say that both of them make my...

Somewhat pricey, but worth it. It leaves hair soft, with some styling control. Too much on dry hair may leave it sticky..it works best on damp hair. No HG, not a can't-live-without-it product..but...

LOVE this stuff! I have thin, fine, color-treated hair and I don't know what I would put in it every day if there were no Potion 9. It makes my hair smooth, shiny and frizz-free, and it even smells...

I love Potion 9, but I do wish they would improve their packaging. After lots of use, the tube tends to crack! Anyway, this product makes my hair silky and shiny, and I love it especially for the...

So I swapped for this but it was the smallest tube-but it worked so well for the 3 times I used it. Most of the reviewers said it made their hair straighter-my hair is already straight I wanted a...

The metal tube is a horrible feature of a great product. I swim three or four days in a week and this is another product I rely on to keep my hair from frizzing out of control. The smell is okay...

I'm onto my umpteenth big tub of this. (If you like this, get the tub, it's a bit cheaper, and as everyone says, the metal tube breaks and is annoying.) I have chemically treated hair, and my...
