Umberto Giannini Gunk Straight To It

Before I start, I would like to point out that on my tube of the product, the name brand is spelled 'Giannini' not Gianni'. Perhaps I'm just being pedantic, I enjoy it though. What is it?

It is recommended for use on all hair types and on mid to long lengths. Packaging: The product comes in a tube which is about 5.5 inches long and about 3.5cm in diameter.

I had honestly given up on getting my hair as sleek and straight as my hairdresser does. And then browsing through Boots I picked up Gunk Straightening Cream thinking "worth a go". All I can say is WOW - this stuff is great! This cream makes life soooo easy, you just bung it on and start drying - that's it!
