It's been a really long time since I have loved a new product enough to recommend it to somebody. It feels good. Welcome to your new no-frizz life. I was skeptical when I first heard about this "miracle product" (developed by MIT scientists no less) that combats frizzy hair without silicon (which, until this point, was the gravamen of any anti-frizz haircare but which tends to either weigh hair down or make it greasy. Or both). I was even more skeptical of the claim that the lotion would not only smooth hair but also increase hair's natural ability to fight humidity. But, after only 3 days of using "No Frizz" I am an absolute convert. This stuff is miraculous. In high school I used Frizz Ease. In college I branched out and tried other things. In law school I tried more "high end" products. But never have I had such success in combating the slightly stuck-my-finger-in-a-socket look that so many Indian women deal with till now. Not only does "No Frizz" ameliorate my "natural wave" (heh). It also manages to allow me--for the first time in my life--to forego the hairdryer. Yes. You read that correctly. If you are polygamous like me (married to your husband and your hairdryer)--you might have just found a way to make your life and your hair a little smoother and less complicated.

Ive been wanting to try this! Thanks for the tip!
I read about this in Allure and filed it under "too good to be true" but I think I will give it another shot. Does it really increase your hair's anti-frizziness even without use of the product? That's the part I find way too good to be true.
Pinch me, if this is for real I am going to buy a crate of the stuff especially with summer and beach time right around the corner!
More Indian women need to be proud of having curly hair (note: curls, not frizz).
Deva Curl products and all the Curly Girl books, web resources, and stylists are absolutely incredible. Throw away the ceramic iron and be proud of your natural curls!!!
Agree with "Archana." Except I don't have curls I have FRIZZZZZZ. Should I really try this, I'm getting excited!
I have been blowdrying my hair every day since I was 13 years old. I have tried everything to lessen the time suck on my day (it takes me close to 35 minutes to dry and style my hair!) Even tried those towels that supposedly cut your dry time in half, and very expensive hairdryers. Willing to give this a shot. But I'm beyond skeptical.
At the risk of being offensive I can't imagine why anybody would give up 35 precious minutes just to style hair.
@above poster: What's it to you! To each her own!
Excited to try this, hopeing I can get a free sample or something, gonna call Sephora.
100 percent concur, this has become my secret weapon!
i have been curious about this too, thanks for the review! hope you are planning on bringing back thr beauty posts.
Ooh may have to try this product out. Although I tried a new trick last night and so far the hair is in beautiful curls and no frizz (even with the humidity/rain today)!
Tried it, didn't work
I tried it and it works if you use ALOT of the product. Wasn't a miracle for me but definitely made my hair look ALOT better. :)
Three words: Japanese hair straightening.
It works, you just do it once and it stays for almost a whole year! Straight, no frizz. It looks fairly natural, and you dont waste 35 mins a day straightening!
