Firstly I had best tell you what my hair is like, it is Shoulder length, brown, very thick and extremely frizzy.
Gels, waxes, serums, leave in conditioners, deep treatments and many more, I had tried it all but to no avail.My hair just wouldn`t settle down, that was until I saw this.I was a little bit nearer to the perfect hairdo.

Know I came across this while I was shopping in boots, and was instantly attracted to it.

**** Packaging ****

It is a 15ml bottle so it is fairly small as you can imagine, it has a clear bottom with a pink top. This top is a pump dispenser. On the pink top is a clear plastic cap to stop any spillage.The liquid inside looks as though it is a thick gel, but as I will explain later, looks are deceptive. It has the charles worthington logo and the words TAKE AWAYS FRIZZ TAMING SERUM on the front.

**** DIRECTIONS *****

On the directions it says to towel dry hair, rub one pumpful of serum between the palms and work lightly through hair lenghts. Dry as normal.


Now I had my shower and then towel dried my hair. Then I went to use this, I must now say that one pumpful was not enough to give me good coverage on my hair so I used three. I found that this was and adequate amount. The gel was also a lot thinner than I had first thought.

***** Results *****

As I smoothed this down my hair, I can honestly say that, my hair had a shinier look to start of with and seemed to be less frizzy. But as I wasn`t going to get my hopes up just yet, I wanted to see what it would be like when dry.

I dried and styled my hair and again noticed it didn`t seem as thick as normal and still had a nice shine. It was a lot less frizzy than usual and didn`t feel as dried out. I was impressed. Did it last all day? yes it did and still felt great the next day( And that was after bed hair ).

*** Pricing ***

As I said I bought this from boots at a price of £1.69, but it has lasted me ages, so definately money well spent

**** Advantages ****

Handbag friendly
Value for money
Comes in a wide range for all hair types
Expertly tested
Not tested on animals

*** disadvantages ******

None


*** Extra information ***

You can visit the charles worthington website at www.cwlondon.com. I haven`t been on it yet but will do after writing this op.


**** My final Word ****

I Really liked this product as it is very rare for me to find something to calm down my mop of hair. This did so I am happy.

    Great opp! I don't think you mentioned the name of the product though? Luckly I sort of know which one it is because I work at Boots. Maybe tell us the full name of the product you were reviewing in the Charles Worthington range. And also the CW range is on a 3 for 2 at the moment at Boots!! :o) So stock up on it!! - Laura xx
