Alterna HaircareCaviar Anti-Aging Restructuring Bond Repair Shampoo and Conditioner, 1.35 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)

This product is the only thing I will use on my naturally curly hair. The bond strengthening and repair, as well as the easily absorbed rich conditioner are the perfect pair for enhancing and taming beautiful naturally curly hair. To date, over 45 years I have searched for the perfect product to shampoo and condition my hair. In my 40s now, my hair is healthier and more beautiful than ever after consistently using these two products. I highly recommend investing in this miracle system. Since I began using this, I get more than two compliments every day on my curls!

I purchased this product because I have been using a very well known informercial cleansing conditioner for about four months and my hair had become brittle, dry, and was breaking off. My scalp was dry and itchy too. I knew I needed to stop using it and find something else that could repair the damage that had been done and keep my hair in top condition going forward. When I received the products, one had leaked inside the package. That was a little disappointing, but not much was lost and that has to do with the packaging, not the product itself. Now for my experience with using it. The scent is okay. I don't care for the scent much, but it's not offensive in any way. It is certainly better smelling than the other product I've been using and I tried several formulations of it. The first time I used Alterna Caviar Repair Instant Recovery, I used the shampoo and conditioner both. Again, thought they were okay. Nothing special. When I combed my wet hair I was gentle and was able to get it tangle free pretty easily. I had some tangles, but managed to get them out without too much effort. The difference I noticed was after drying my hair. My hair is softer, silkier and shinier than it has been in a very long time. While drying it with my round brush, the brush just glided through my hair. No tugging or tangles at all. I was a little apprehensive about the cost of the product, but my hair needs repair in addition to a quality shampoo/conditioner, so I was willing to give it a try. The other product I was using was expensive too, in cost and in what it did to my hair. I use the Alterna sparingly to make it last longer and once my hair is in better condition, I "may" alternate between Alterna and another quality product that is a little less expensive. I can honestly say though that I love it and I may find it difficult to use anything else going forward. I think it is well worth the cost and I'm glad I took the plunge and tried it.

I have only used it once so far, since I just received it today, so this won't really be a thorough review. I like the smell and the feel. I noticed that the shampoo did get my hair clean and made it feel a little fuller even while I was still in the shower. It seemed maybe a little bit dry at first but then when I put the conditioner on...wow! So smooth and it didn't take a lot to cover all of my hair. I'm still waiting for my hair to dry and I used the Lengthening Elixir from Alterna as well as the Anti-Aging Omega+ Oil as I have been using for the past month or more now. My hair does feel pretty good.I would really like to address the many complaints I've read relating to the ease of getting the product out. Due to all of the comments on this, I was already already a little skeptical when I opened the package, and wondered about the caps when I actually saw the bottles. Once I went to use the shampoo I discovered it really wasn't as hard as everyone has been saying. You twist the silver top, turn the bottle like you would any other shampoo/conditioner bottle, and then squeeze gently. Not like, oh I'm petting a newborn kitten gently, and not as hard as though you're trying to choke the life out of someone either. It should be the same pressure you use to squeeze any other bottle. Really very simple. Really. Simple.I might add more or write another review once I have had a little more of an experience with this duo but so far: I like it!

I am so grateful to have found this shampoo and conditioner. I have fine, thin, frizzy hair that is about 50% gray. It's been that way since I was 25. So I've been dyeing it for the last 15 years. In the last couple years I discovered extensions. Microbead extensions to be exact. Made from 100% human hair, I can have long, beautiful, thick hair that everyone compliments me on. But they are hard to care for. Until now. You are expected to use Sulfa free products, and protect your extensions, because they are not your real hair, and will dry out and turn brittle quickly. Lots of dry shampoo and not a lot of washing. My scalp was itchy, my real hair felt greasy, and being a medical professional, I was not as confident about my appearance as I wanted. Then I found Alterna. My hair, both mine and the extensions, come out soft, shiny, and clean every time. I can wash the extensions every day if I wanted to (I don't because they take about six hours to air dry) and they would look new 3 months later. No harsh chemicals to break down the extensions, and my real hair is growing like never before. I have soft, long, beautifully styled hair every day. The best part is that my extensions (which right now are 18" blond wavy ones) will last as long as I want them to. They say the average is 3-6 months. Mine have been in almost a year and other than getting the ends trimmed every couple months, are healthy and shiny. Again, so grateful for this product, I just wish I had found it sooner.

Compre este set para mi mamá pero lamentablemente enviaron uno considerablemente más pequeño (150 ml). Tuve que regresarlo.
