John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Shine Shock

I have long dark brown hair and I like to keep it shiny and healthy. John Frieda's Shine Shock promises to make your hair shine like it never did before. Let's see if that's true.
What does it promise to do? It promises to give your hair a multi-dimensional rich dazzle, to help frizzy hair and to close splitted ends of your hair.
Use it on wet hair and apply depending on the length of your hair a small amount on your hair, for a beautiful finish apply a little bit on dry hair. I used it on dry hair.

It looks like a transparant gel with glitters in it. It's a pretty thick substance.

I don't like the feeling of this stuff on my hands, but let's see how it looks on my hair.

Before

After

I used a amount as big as a pea for all the hair on the picture, but that is too much in my opinion. It makes my hair a little bit heavy. But I think that's because I used a little bit too much. It does make my hair look shiny, but not that much more shiny than before. I think I should use it on wet hair and not dry. You really need a very small amount, otherwise it's going to make your hair look al little bit greasy and that's not what you want. I smells like a coconut by the way, not the natural one, but the artificial coconut smell. I don't really like that smell in my hair unfortunately.

Would I buy this again? I don't think so, I don't like the smell and it doesn't really add that much more shine to my hair, but I'm sure it makes your hair shine applying it on wet hair before blowdrying.
