Advantages: did hold hair in place Disadvantages: left hair frizzy and sticky
I was caught by the bargain police again, I brought Shock waves frizz free cream as the shockwaves products were on offer for buy one get one free in sainsburys, costing me £3.09 for two products.
The packaging is a blue tub with screw on lid. Each tub contains 150ml of cream and it looks like a facial cream rather than a hair product.

What really happened: I applied to dry big hair a small amount as stated and found this was enough as a little goes a long way. I left my hair to dry naturally. The result: big and sticky hair with no difference other than the fact it was held in place as a giant frizzy and sticky mop. I am still waiting for the perfect frizz free hair this product said it would give. I applied the product this morning and still just a sticky frizz ball sits where hair should be.
This product also left my hands feeling sticky but this did rinse off easily and my hands went back to normal. Shame about my hair! It did Hold my hair in place so would be good as a styling cream but as for frizz free it didn't happen. So, this product does nothing for us of the frizz hair population except glorify that fact by holding it all in place.
I wouldn't recommend this product but if you find a product that really works, please let me know!
Advantages: I didn't actually pay for it Disadvantages: does not work at all
As other consumers often do, they purchase 2 for 1 hair care products in the expectation that it is a good deal and the product will be used. That was me intent on finding a frizz suppressor that really works (those of you blessed with a huge head of hair but nothing to tame it with will sympathize). With the product actually being called Frizz Free Styling Cream I thought I'd give it a go. The directions say to use a coin size dollop (my word not ... ...I don't know about the rest of you frizzy haired consumers, but a coin size isn't even enough to cover one lock of my hair. So about 1/4 of the jar later, I had applied my new Shock Waves Strong Frizz Free Cream to the hair that I wish could be Frizz free. And what happened? Like stepping out of a shower and letting my hair dry, the frizzies reappeared about half an hour later. Not only did there appear to be no affect on my frizz issue, there appeared ...

Advantages: Longlasting, good hold, not sticky or wet, very versatile Disadvantages: Stays stuck to your hands
I used to use styling wax, but that tended to make my hair a bit thick and greasy. I tried this styling creme and it had the hold of wax, but without the heavy feeling. It lasts all day and, for a change, does what it says on the tub, brushes out easily.
I originally bought it because it was on special offer, but I do not regret it. I don't have frizzy hair but it does have the tendency to stickup because of its thickness.
This stuff kept the style ... ...of gels or waxes. Gels give you the oil slick on your head look while waxes just make your hair sticky.
The other Shockwaves creme in a small tub and is quite expensive. However, despite the small size the, tub lasts ages because you only need a small amount to make a difference.
When these two are used together, they are very effective, and in my opinion, the best you can buy at the price. ...

Recently i managed ...
