PHILIP KINGSLEY - Elasticizer - Deep Conditioner Repair Mask - 1.35fl oz

I have spent a lot of time and money chasing softness and shine for my post-menopausal super dry and delicate hair. I have finally found it in this product - Elasticizer from Philip Kingsley. My hair was doing that Einstein thing - defying gravity, floating about in a cloud and feeling like absolute straw - so BRITTLE, so DRY, so DULL. I don't even dye it, no chemical treatments, nothing. I turned to the internet for advice. One YouTuber is all about bond repair upon bond repair upon bond repair and at first I felt that it helped a little. However, with natural, untreated hair, I don't think my bonds are actually broken. Post-menopausal hair is just thinner and drier, it's not a bond problem. And bond repair products become drying in and of themselves. Another YouTuber is all about leave-in conditioners and hair oils. He's definitely right about the leave-in conditioner and the oils do help. While I enjoy the oils actually, it's always a bit of a tightrope between applying too much and your hair hanging in pieces, or not applying enough in which case it still feels crackly and starts floating upwards. I bought a trial size package of the Elasticizer pre-shampoo mask and the Elasti-Styler leave-in styler. MY WORLD CHANGED. THIS. This is it. My hair feels 50 years younger. I'm not even kidding. It feels soft and silky the way it did when I was in high school. I'm not even really using my oils now as my ends maintain softness and shine between washes. Maybe about day 3 or 4 I'll put a smidge on the very last half inch of hair. It really doesn't seem to need it and it feels so much more silk-like than you can achieve with oil. It also SHINES. After all the money I'd spent I really thought that shine was a thing of the past, well out of my reach now. Nope! (I will say that the Elasti-Styler, Split End Remedy and the Bond Builder Lipid Shield are invaluable for this. They all work to really SEAL the cuticle. Unbelievable. I think they call it "glass shine"). Well, everyone mentions the price. To that I say that I've bought 2 rounds of K18 and 2 rounds of Epres thinking that that was the best hair technology available today. The cost was extortionate but I was so hopeful. Well, they are both drying for me and what I now know is that what I needed was MOISTURE. Nothing I've bought in the last 6 months (it's a long, expensive list, I'm afraid) delivers moisture like this mask. It really does make your hair silky and elastic like young hair. After the trial size I went ahead and bought the 33 oz (bottle? tub?) BARREL and I'm so glad I did. In the Black Friday sale I got it for $100 and it will last well over a year using it twice a week. So not even $2 a week. I've spent more than that on those precious few ounces of bond repair products and it turns out I was wholly misguided in buying those. I find that masking pre-shampoo is pretty easy to do. I did have other masks that I didn't use as there's no way I'm going to step out of the shower, get dried off, apply, wait, and then get back in. I'm also not going to sit in the shower for 20 minutes waiting for it to work. But applying the mask pre-shower is easy and I can get on with some other task while it works rather than actively waiting for the time to be up. It is an extra step but the payoff is incredible. (I've given the other masks to a friend.) Well, that's my story and it's a happy one at last. I definitely recommend all the products I've tried so far, especially this one - Elasticizer and the Elasti-Styler. The Split End Remedy and the Lipid Shield are also incredible and again, for me they really seal the cuticle and bring out the shine. I will definitely be stocking up on Black Fridays and Prime Days. Having finally found EFFECTIVE hair care for my situation, I'm happy to spend what it takes to keep this amazing soft, shiny and healthy hair going. Very grateful to have found these products and I hope that by writing this review I can do a little to repay the late Mr. Kingsley for what he has done for me in formulating these wonderful products.

I have medium fine hair with highlights. This preconditioning treatment is worth the effort. After spritzing my hair with warm water I smoothed a generous amount on my hair and put a plastic cap on for about an hour. After I washed my hair and used a light conditioner I immediately noticed how silky my hair felt. After it dried my hair was soft and shiny. I styled as usual using my blower and wow my hair was smooth and glossy. I’m buying PHILIP KINGSLEY - Elasticizer | Deep Conditioner | Repair Hair Mask Treatment again! I highly recommend it.

I saw this product recommended on you tube! And it does not disappoint! Great moisturizing hair treatment for my thin dry hair! My hair is soft and shiny... This is definitely part of my normal routine now.

Elasticity is its name and definitely its game. My hair is a hot mess because of permanent hair dye and bleaching with it also being relaxed. Which means it's extremely prone to breaking with little effort. This really is great. It gives my hair a little stretch without the snap and you actual feel the strength and elasticity it gives. It's definitely a keeper, but the price is outrageous for the amount you get. Regardless, I have to keep using this to get my hair back to health which it is definitely doing. 5 stars for the product 4 stars for the price. It should really cost max $35

I use this mask every week and it definitely makes a difference. My hair is softer and smoother. I love that it has no added fragrance, but it still smells lovely.

This one didn’t accomplish what I needed but their Elasticizer Extreme is perfect for me.

I got the travel size of this to try after I read Audrey Hepburn used it religiously. After one use I already can see and feel a difference! My hair was so silky after I washed it out and it looks healthier and shinier

This product is magical with damaged curly hair. I have coarse dry curly hair and although it’s recommended to use as a pre shampoo I use it after shampoo. Makes my curls hydrated, shiny and soft. I highly recommend

Lovely stuff makes my hair feel soft and thick

Mai come usato prima un prodotto simile. Lo tengo molto sui capelli. Ed il risultato è capelli idratati, morbidi in salute, senza appesantire. Ottimo.

Tres bon produit,l'emballage était impeccable,le livreur professionnel et sympa me remettait l'article en mains propres. Merci

Ich habe sehr dünnes, feines und kaputtes Haar und habe allgemein nicht allzu hohe Erwartungen an Beauty Produkte.. aber dieses Produkt hat mich wirklich überzeugt! Meine Haare fühlen sich nach der Benutzung einfach super gepflegt an. Ich benutze es jetzt seit ein paar Wochen und ich habe das Gefühl meine Haare sind allgemein einfach gesünder und griffiger. Hab es auch schon meinen Freundinnen empfohlen. Werde es auf jeden fall wieder kaufen und wünschte ich hätte es früher entdeckt.
