Color Wow Dream Cocktail – Volumizing Leave-In Hair Treatment | Hala Grace

I bought this back in Feb and tried it a few times with rather disappointing results. I thought maybe the directions were a little exaggerated and I used it like other leave in products. Sprayed it into my hair, combed through, applied my usual anti-frizz serum and then blow dried as usual flipping my hair upside down. THIS IS NOT IT!A fewWeeks ago I tried it again because my hair was just a frizzy dry mess. I decided to follow the directions to the letter.I sectioned my towel dried hair that was still pretty wet. Sprayed each section LIBERALLY, like, more than I thought I ever should and combed each section through before moving on to the next. I skipped any other product in my hair which kind of terrified me.I let air dry a bit before blow drying with my giant air brush, again, going in sections and using tension and high heat.I was literally floored by the results! My hair was soft, felt like silk, was SUPER smooth and INSANELY shiny!!!!Since using this product the right way, my super dry, frizzy, crunchy hair has been the complete opposite. My co-workers all thought I had gotten my hair done at a salon, had my hair colored, had my hair cut….none of which has happened.My hair is easier to style and curl, it has bounce and movement. It glistens without looking oily.My only criticism is the design of the bottle. It’s not very ergonomic and the nozzle spins and I’ll lose my grip on it throughout application. So, I transferred the product into a different spray bottle that is much easier to hold while spraying.The moral of this story ladies and gentlemen is that you MUST follow the directions!! I can’t stress that enough. When they call it a coat, they mean it. Each section of your hair needs to be coating thoroughly and absolutely saturated by the product. Just spraying it into your hair isn’t going to do the trick. You also need heat with tension. Just blow drying won’t do it.Yes it takes a bit more time, but the results in applying it and blow drying correctly are worth it.I don’t notice a scent really.My hair just smells clean. I also notice my hair doesn’t get as oily as quickly. I was also surprised that no other products were needed at all. No leave in condition, no oil, serum nothing.

I'm only giving this 4 stars because the 1st package was lost and the second was late. I have very thin hair. This spray is amazing and works so well to protect my hair and not weigh it down. It's a great quality, no greasy look, instead a beautiful shine. A lil expensive, but worth the money.

My daughter has 3b-3c curly hair. Her curls form beautiful spirals and are very bouncy. I recently straightened her hair for her after she requested it and her hair didn’t last a day. It was already reverting back to curly the same night and she was so disappointed. I remembered we had this product and used it previously with great success so I convinced her to try again and this time she was over the moon. Her hair was silky smooth and so shiny. I could barely get it to wrap to put it in the bonnet at night for bedtime because of how silky her hair was. I included a video of how shiny the product made her hair. We don’t get these results without color wow. I love that it has heat protectant in it so I don’t have to add any other products to her hair and it stays clean and flows beautifully once we are done. I use a pea sized amount of biosilk serum on her ends to protect them but that’s it. No touch ups, no extra heat throughout the week. It literally looks like a silk press from a salon even though I used a regular straightener. The product is heat activated so you have to heat style. You also must apply it liberally but it doesn’t leave residue or make the hair sticky or greasy like some heat protectants do. I will forever recommend and use this product and the formula as it is now.Update: We have continued to use this product with great success! It still gives the best results over any other brand out there and it seals out humidity that causes hair to revert back to curly after the flat iron. I noticed some reviews mentioning a burnt smell, not so smooth results or a sticky feeling after using the product. This happens when the hair is not completely clean. Product build up is a thing. Shampoo more than once and use a clarifying shampoo prior to using this because it’s all you need. No oils, no leave-ins, no serums prior to color wow and styling. You can add oil or a serum after you are done not before and you’ll get the amazing results you’re looking for. Also, apply liberally means EXACTLY that! Apply it everywhere and not sparingly. I typically towel dry to 50%, detangle, section, and apply the product to nearly 80% just shy of dripping then go in with the blow dryer and a round brush under tension. Once it’s completely dry I pass through each section again with a flat iron on medium-high heat two or three times. This product has heat protectant in it and it’s heat activated you MUST use heat. If you aren’t getting silky smooth, shiny, full of body hair you probably aren’t using the product correctly or you need to get help during the styling so you can keep tension on your hair during the drying process. My daughter’s hair stays shiny and moves freely like a salon silk press for a week before it starts to get greasy from her natural oils from her scalp. We wrap it at night and that’s it. I never have to touch up before it’s time to wash it. Hopefully, this helps troubleshoot.If it’s sticky, shampoo until there’s absolutely nothing on your scalp or hair and only apply color wow.If it’s not smooth, keep tension on your round brush while blow drying.If it smells burnt, that’s your hair. Apply it liberally (meaning drown it) it’s a heat protectant you need that to keep your hair from burning.

I have curly/frizzy course hair with thick strands but low density. Until this product, it was otherwise impossible for me to get a good blowout at home. I am just an average person that is simply unskilled with hair. This and a blowdry brush allows me to get close to salon blowout results. Not only that, the results LAST. Even when I get a professional blowout, it doesn't take but a few days for the top of my head to get frizzy and for the style to fall out. This product really does help my home blowout last and makes it easier to refresh. One would think that to do this, it would make your hair stiff and unpleasant, but it the opposite is true. Your hair is left soft, shiny, and touchable, while still retaining the style you put in it. WOW truly does describe this product.The first time I used this product, I didn't use enough of it and wasn't at all impressed. Then I read the directions, which said to apply it "liberally". I also went online and found that you need to saturate all of your strands with the product for it to work. This is a liquid spray-on, so you need to be diligent about getting all of your hair covered by working in sections and distributing it through with a detangling brush or comb. On my thick-stranded, medium-length but low density hair, I divide my hair into 3 sections and use about 8-12 sprays per section. This may be overkill, but I'd rather not risk a wash day. Given the price, having to use a lot of the product every time you use it is definitely a downside. If you want the best results, heed the instructions that tell you to spray a good amount and blowdry with tension. If you do that, being able to go many days without having to restyle your hair could make it worth the price for you. Even if you have very long or a lot of hair you should be able to get several blowouts even with liberal use for about half the cost of one professional blowout from a salon.Given my course and frizzy hair, this product works well for me, but it does make the hair slippy and soft. If you struggle with volume/texture this may not be for you. But for all you course/frizzy-headed folks out there, this is definitely worth a try.

⸻⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing for frizz control and shineThis product truly delivers on its promises! From the very first use, I noticed how my hair became smoother, shinier, and completely frizz-free, even on very humid days. I love that it doesn’t weigh my hair down or leave it greasy — it feels super lightweight with a professional, salon-like finish.I apply it after washing my hair, before blow-drying, and the results are incredible. The best part is that the effect lasts for several washes, so you don’t need to use it every day.If you struggle with frizz or want sleek, shiny hair that lasts, this product is a total game-changer. Highly recommend!
