First off..i torture my hair...i color it, and heat style it often!I always read reviews about girls who have thick frizzy curly hair...but mine is super thin strands(but TONS of it) wavy and frizzy. This is the best product ive tried so far. Ive used bumble and bumble, paul mitchell, redken, and many many others. Bio silk leaves my hair so soft and managable. I use it as a leave in conditioner every day! If you have hair like mine that tends to frizz no matter what there is also a lightweight finishing balm by Pureology called Nanoworks Shineluxe...its is a shimmering violet in color and smells faintly of roses...it makes every hair color shimmer and look celeb worthy!!! I promise it is worth every penny. they dont have it on folica yet though...so sad...
Pretty good, but...

I was introduced to Silk Therapy by my salon and bought it becuase it's made Farouk, who also make the Chi straightener which is the straightener I have. At first I really loved the product, but then I started to notice that I had lots of split ends ... I know some say that there isn't much alcohol and that it doesn't even touch your hair, but if you are a swimmer (like I am) and you straighten your hair every day (like I do) then it's not the best product. My hair is completely un-dyed right now (I've grown all the colour out) and I just find that this product isn't the best: it definitely had a tendency to dry my hair out. However, if you don't straighten every day it would probably work pretty well.
Excellent Product

After I turned 45, I had to start dying my hair. Hello gray! I noticed that after dying my hair, it started completely drying out, losing elasticity, breaking and getting much thinner.
I switched from product to product to product. I have always used professional products since my Mom is a beautician. What worked before I dyed my hair, I found out, was not producing the results. My hair has always been very healthy. Extremely healthy.
One of my girlfriends recommended that I use Biosilk to try and combat the dryness and breaking.
Wow! What a difference. I use this product after my hair naturally dries. I start at the ends, about a dime size, and "pat" the ends of my hair. After that, I put about a quarter size drop in and work it up. Brushing my hair with a boars hair brush after I have applied the Biosilk to distribute it evenly. I don't need it on my scalp. I leave this in for a couple of days. It absorbs and does not leave my hair greasy.
I have never had a problem with my hair not shining but I have noticed that since using it, my hair combs out much easier, therefore, not as much breakage has occurred.
My hair is much softer and a lot less dry. I live in a valley in California where we have very little humidity and a lot of air pollution. Fortunately, our water is not that hard. Pollution and low humidity are rough on your hair. I also use a filter on my shower to try and elminate most of the chlorine.
I have noted on this website that most woman that are using this product are using heating tools and trying to eliminate frizzies, with great results I might add.
I am writing this to let other women who have straight long hair know that this also works great on our hair. I was thinking about cutting my hair shorter because of the damage. Now I don't have to.
I have only used this product for 2 months so, thus far, I have not had my hair dry out using this product. There is such a thing as over-conditioning your hair, which will cause dryness. Any conditioner will do that.
I am not worried, like a lot of consumers, about the alcohol in the product. Most hair products contain small amounts of alcohol.
I have even used this product on my boyfriend, who also has long hair, not my length, but sholder length, with great results. He likes it very much.
I highly recommend Biosilk Silk Therapy for all types of hair.
Healthy Hair!

I have thick, wavy, and frizzy hair so I straighten it almost daily. But I noticed my hair becoming slightly fragile and some split-ends occuring so I immediately stopped straightening it until I found biosilk. It protected my hair from the heat damage of the flat iron and split-ends and not to mention it makes it silky soft with no frizz. i'm very satisfied with it my hair has never looked healthier. To have healthy hair I reccomend; 1. Using Biosilk Shampoo & Conditioner 2. Applying Biosilk Silk Therapy to damp hair 3.(If Styling)Using Corioliss Pro Straightner/Curler 4. Adding a very small amount of Biosilk Silk Therapy after styling to eliminate frizz & add additional shine
*I also want to add; After your done straightening/curling while your hair is still hot use a hairdryer with the cool-air feature to gentley cool your hair off because when its still hot it can easily get a wave or crease.
Great Stuff!

I have been using this product for over a year now and it has tamed my naturally wavy (and somewhat frizzy) locks...keeps the frizz down, smooths out the kinkier waves and gives my hair a beautiful shine. I have some dryness and damage but I don't want to cut it so I dry it naturally, apply the product about three inches from the scalp and then curl or iron with gorgous results.
I feel that this product is not better than the hair styling creams found in drug stores. Biosilk also doesn't provide much shine.
i love this stuff

i have pretty thick...long relaxed hair and i tried this product after a few ladies suggested it to me. The other reviewer was correct in saying this product is not intended to provide heat protection, but it definitely does what its supposed to do. It smooths your hair, makes it shiny and more manageable and is great for use with a a flat iron. ive used this product followed by the Megasilk heat protection spray before blowdrying and the results are fantastic! you get the best of both worlds: protection from heat damage and silky shiny hair. The two products compliment eachother very well. (PS o use pantene relaxed and natural shampoo and conditioner as part of my regimine weekly). Hope my review helps! happy styling :o)
best hair product!

okay so I havent purchaced the product but i have used it once , and yes it does make your hair feel absoluty wonderful ! It gives a incredible shine and holds down frizz . I would say its better then chi silk infusion mainly becuase it smells better ! BUT , in the long run it CAN dry your hair out becuase of the alcohal . yes sad but true . so my advice to you is maybe not use it EVERYDAY but otherwise it is really a amazing product ! I love it !
It works pretty well

It does protect my hair from humidity and frizz, but the downside is that it does not protect against heat.
When I put biosilk in, my hair is incredibly Shiny, and soft, but my ends seem a little crunchy. I prefer CHI silk infusion over this one. But I do like it and recommend it. It has a great smell.
Good but contains dangerous ingredients

It smells great, bottle last forever, eliminates frizz, hair looks healthy etc BUT contains PARABENS and ALCOHOL so in the long run it's not a healthy product.
It's nice..but not amazing

After hearing so many good reviews, I decided to try out the product myself. My hair is straight, but if left to air dry it is a little wavy with frizz on top. So pros: it made my hair softer (well it was soft on one side but I didn't notice much difference on the other side, weird). Also I think my hair is not as frizzy as before. Then cons: my face gets really itchy when my hair comes in contact and my scalp as well. I don't have sensitive skin or anything, but for some reason this hair product makes my skin really irritated. I'm not sure if it provides any shine, because my hair is naturally really shiny. Overall I think this product is for reducing frizz and making hair soft. Except in some cases, this products makes skin really itchy and irritated.

I'm a guy and this stuff works great. Btw you use it after you shampoo and condition. One reviewer gave this 1 star because they tried to use it as a conditioner in the shower. next time read the directions. Works great before hot styling too!
Love it!

I am an African-American women with big and dry hair and I love this product. This product does wonders to my hair. I put it in before blow drying or just before flat ironing(only a dime size). I highly recommend this product and am looking forward to trying more products from this line.

I have used Biosilk Silk Therapy for almost 10 years. I cannot live without it. It drastically improves the health and shine of my hair, and smells wonderful. It also works great for frizz control. I definitely recommend this to everyone!!

I just wanted to say... ITS NOT A CONDITIONER!! u dont even put it on in the shower! stupid. Its a great product. After I shower, either when my hair is wet or dry (but after i brushed out the knots), i use about a dime size. I use it every few days because my hair isnt that damaged so i dont need to use it everyday and because I don't want to go through the bottle super fast. Smells really good too!
A Winner - at last!

I have a drawer full of products that failed to live up to expectations. This little magic potion made a difference in one day and turned my hair from a dead looking dull mop to a shiny bouncy full hairstyle. I have used it every day since and have bought the whole line. Highly recommended.
Put in a dime size amount to hair BEFORE flat ironing it

Wonderful product, I've been using it for years and it goes in a little greasy. Once hair is flat ironed(with ceramic!!!! metal damages hair) it's the best thing ever, my hair has never looked as good. I think it seals the hair and repairs it at the same time. Everyone gets recommended this product at beauty shops and rightly so, it does wonders.
