I use this to protect my hair from the chlorine in my swimming sessions (several per week). Rather effective, it must be confessed. I cut my lengths because chlorine had damaged me (straw!), Since I use this product and I see that my hair did not even damaged. I would have put 5 stars without hesitation, but I removed a cause of the smell, I can not bear. It surely will appeal to some people, but personally I find it smells the flower not so fresh granny's attic. And the smell is too present to be ignored.
