I loooove this stuff! It works wonderfully on my hair! I'm not sure that I'm using it right, but after I blowdry my hair, I apply some (a little goes a long way) to the ends of my hair a bit throughout my hair. (I have medium length/medium thickness hair that has natural waves.) After it gets absorbed into my hair, there is NO greasiness or heaviness. The smell is nice and light (not overpowering and chemically). I really feel that this has kept split ends from forming on my hair. I use shampoo bars and have not needed conditioner since using them. I use this balm on the ends of my hair to ensure that split ends don't form from blowdrying my hair. FABULOUS product!!!
