Hiya,
I can only reiterate what the advice given in my earler post, my hair is dry through chemical treatments like colouring/highlighting. Because the hair that has been coloured is a different condition to normal hair it literally DISSOLVED the ends of my hair, just eating it away from the ends upwards. I had to rush to the bathroom and try to wash it out but it was too late. Looked like strings of melted chewing gum hanging down all around my face. :eek:

I wouldnt risk it personally as theres a 50/50 chance that the same will will happen as it actually advices not to if you've highlighted/bleached hair. If nothing bad happens it is just unbelievable luck considering the advice. :frown:

I'm horrid now... after reading 6 pages and there were so many effect. I'm thinking of buying it tomorrow. I'd like to know what type of hair you have for those who tried it already, I mean, Caucasian, Asian and afro hair surely have different results.
I did the Permanent straightening in China 5 years ago, which last for more than 6 months and the hair looks brilliant. it only cost about 100 yuan (around £10).

Hey seen this on boots website, it is available online now and in shops from 4th sept http://www.boots.com/shop/category_new_template_content_rich.jsp?classificationid=1042646
anyone tried or gonna try it?

ive tried it and it definately is an improvement for a while but nothing long-term. I have had my hair Yuko'd since and it is THE BEST THING IVE EVER DONE!!!!! very expensive....about £300 for my hair (which the length u can see in my pic) but it has left my hair in even better condition, saves me heaps of time (the reason i got it in the first place) and has left my hair in better condition; its a lot thicker now then it was before. Thing is it sounds like a lot of money but really, seeing as it lasts a year, it works out at £25 a month! really the best thing you can do
