The bottle looks very elegant. It has the VS and Sassoon logo on the front, in an attractive silver. Near the bottom a band with the words, classic daily therapy. The one that came in the mail is for normal hair. An 8.1 fl oz (240ml) full size bottle. How lucky can a girl get. Checking out the price I found it to retail at around $6.99 (£4.50).
I style my hair in a French pleat, and tend to back comb/tease it to get volume and height. Then when I wash it, it tends to get matted. Even with a second wash. I have tried many conditioners in the past, and this problem still occurred. However, Vidal Sassoon's product worked great for me. I had rinsed my hair thoroughly, and applied one squirt of the 'thick white liquid' to my hands. I then proceeded to rub it into my hair and making sure it covered my split ends. (I forgot to tell you about them).
Next came the test. Brushing my wet hair is normally hell, trying to get it through the knots. Well, I am delighted to say that there were none. My hair felt really smooth. No hair in my hands, instead of my head.
I blow dry my hair and then use a curling iron/tongs. Both of these normally dry out my hair, but I am pleased to report that this did not happen. I styled my hair in the normal fashion and was delighted with the end result.
I am surprised when people ask me what hairdresser I use. I have my hair highlighted/frosted every 6 months, with a good cut too. The rest of the time I take care of it myself.
Back to the product.
Vidal Sassoon is known all over the world for quality products. Yes, they are a little more expensive than some, but we certainly get what we pay for.
It states on the back of the bottle:
Vial Sassoon stylists are constantly creating and sharing new techniques. Hair stylists from all over the world come to our academies to learn about the latest in hair care. Now we want to put this know-how into your hands.
You have - Normal hair - not too dry, not too oily.
You want - Conditioning that replenishes your hair's natural moisture and makes it easy to detangle.
Here's how - Apply VS Daily Therapy to hair after shampooing and rinse thoroughly.
Our stylists suggest - To keep hair its fullest, concentrate conditioner on the middle of hair, down to the ends where it's needed most. Use each time you shampoo to help prevent split ends and flyaways.
I can honestly say it does everything the bottle suggests.

So I finished the sample bottle. Did it make me a believer. Yes, it did. Out I went and purchased the product from our 'Walmart Superstore'. After over a year is it still working? My hair looks great and is very manageable.
I would recommend it for anyone whose hair tangles when being washed. This really does smooth out the problem areas.

It sounds great. My curly hair matts when I tie it up too much, this might help.
