Mindy Holender (my mom!
), has thick, albeit thinning hair, that’s very frizz-prone.

“My favorite product is the leave-in conditioner.
Ive tried every treatment short of chemical keratin, and nothing works.
This made a huge difference, though!

It made my coarse hair feel softer and sealed my split ends.
While it didnt completely prevent frizznothing canit stopped my hair from getting too large.”
I never use leave-in conditionerever.

But I used [Commence’s], and my hair is still light and fluffy.
I dont want to use the word fluffy, but it’s fluffy."
“I also used the root serum.

When I was blow-drying my hair, it felt thicker.
Maybe it was mental, but I swear it felt denser.
I also didnt have to use a smoothing serum after.

“My hair is coarse, but its actually kind of thin.
Still, I try not to wash it more than twice a week to keep my color fresh.
Since my color is dark, its easier to hide [when it’s oily].

It looks a little rough around the edges when I get to day three or four, though.
I dont have dry shampoo that I love.
“Im honestly pretty impressed with [Commence’s].

It really does make my hair look cleaner and gives me some good volume.
Ive also found that my scalp hasnt been as itchy.”
It non-aerosol, benzene-free, and truly invisible.

Quinoa peptides are also included, which are able to create the feeling of thicker, fuller hair.
