This has been my go to for my dry frizzy hair I have some of my original tight spiral curls but since I was about 13 they have fell tons. My hair is always dry I can use about two quarter size amounts in my hair and it will look greasy for about 5hours before soaking up the product. I usually use a nickle size amount and it works beautifully. It was recommended by my cosmetologist aunt more than 15 years ago still a favorite but I stopped using for about 5 years since my hair has thinned considerably hopefully this helps keep it from going more.
