5.0 out of 5 stars My hairstylist uses this on me., November 11, 2007

My hairstylist uses this product on me and it has been a godsend. For over 30 years, I have had frizzy hair. My hair is not curly, it just has a slight wave. I used every kind of conditioner and hair product but my hair still frizzed with any kind of humidity. I got teased as a kid and as an adult people would think they were giving me some amazing advice when they told me I should use a conditioner. I would not trust myself to apply this product, I do believe it should be left to the experts. I buy this myself and bring it to my hairstylist - they don't carry this brand. It smells a bit like one of the creme hair removers ie, Nair. After it's done, my hair is straighter and I can go out on a humid or rainy day and not have to worry about looking like I just stuck my finger in a socket. It gives my hair a nice shine and it feels baby soft. You do have to take better care of your hair and deep condition it when you use this product because after all, it is a chemical process.

1.0 out of 5 stars Rusk Anti Curl #2, Not a hair streightner., August 16, 2007

Hello!!

I'd like to share my experience with this product. Hopefully someone will find it helpful.

I have very curly, coarse medium hair.

I wanted streight sleek hair. I was going to use a different brand relaxer.
...But someone from a hair care store recommended this product. I am not sure if she ever used it herself. But I still took her advice since she seemed to know alot about hair. She recommended me, formula #2 for coarse, porous, permed or highlighted hair. She told me it was gentler than regular relaxers.

I used it myself, I followed all the instructions carefully. When I was finally done. There were still curls in my hair, but not as curly as they were before. Now I have wavy hair.

But this is deifinetly not a hair streightner. Although this is very gentle on your hair it is more of a texturizer.

The thing that I really did not like about it was that it left my hair drier and frizzy when my hair finally dried. Although it's supposed to make your hair less frizzy... it just didn't work for my hair.
But who knows your hair might work with this. But really, if you were to ask me, how I felt about the product, save your money and go to a hair salon place to get your hair done, if that's too expensive, I am sure there are other relaxers that are better than this.

Note about the product: (in the pamplet it says not for bleached hair) And it does not come with any gloves/applicator/or fine tooth comb, you have to buy those sepretly. And if your sensitive to smells, it doesn't smell too good it kind of smelt like bad egg, very strong odor. X_X;

There are 3 types:
Formula #1: For normal hair
Formula #2: For coarse, porous, permed or highlighted hair.
Formula #3: For resistant hair (extremely curly hair and African American hair).

I really had high hopes for this product but I did not like it. Sorry.
I suggest doing a strand test before you put it on your hair to see if you like the results. Or better yet, go to your local hair salon place and get your hair done. :)

4.0 out of 5 stars Great for coarse but fragile hair, October 4, 2008

I have been using this product for 15 years. I have very curly and coarse hair, but it can be easily damaged. If you follow the directions correctly, it loosens the curly and make it less fizzy and softer. It does not completely straighten all the curl out but it is MUCH nicer and I don't have to worry about damage.
