The well known beauty company Dove offers a wide variety of hair products from their ‘Damage Therapy’ line. Each of these products are aimed at providing various but promising hair care, treatment, and styling results. The following article will discuss the pros and cons of Dove's 'Straight and Soft Sleek Styling Cream', along with conducting a product review of this long time, signature hair cream.
Consistency and Usage Directions
This particular substance is a leave-in hair product which acts and feels a lot like a leave-in conditioner. Its properties are light-weight, creamy, and non-greasy. The styling cream also leaves hair with a pleasantly natural but non heavy scent. It is relatively easy to apply and will quickly distribute evenly throughout strands of hair.
Although it is advised to apply the cream directly onto damp hair before styling, it can also be worked into clean and dry hair while providing similar results. The product does not weigh hair down, nor does it interfere with straightening, blow-drying, or styling.
Results
Despite its name, this styling cream does not straighten hair. Individuals who have naturally curly, frizzy, or wavy hair should not expect to see straight-looking hair. However, it can successfully tame flyaways while bringing hair to a naturally soft, relaxed, and managed state. Depending on the amount of cream applied, hair will look and feel controlled and styled.
Hence, if you are seek to keep your hair looking the best while in its most natural form, this product will deliver that result. Furthermore, it is not compulsory to blow dry or style your hair after applying this product. As the description states, hair will remain controlled during the day while retaining its natural movement.
Worth the Money?
Similarly to most Dove Damage Therapy reviews, this cream dries quickly without leaving hair with a sticky or stiff residue. This product is also a two-in-one deal, because it conditions hair while it styles. Most consumers agree that after using this styling cream, hair feels moisturized, conditioned, and ready for styling or just leaving the house as it looks.
The Dove Straight & Soft Sleek Styling Cream retails between $5 to $7. Depending on where you live, it is possible to find this product at an inexpensive price at your local drugstore. If you want increased control in your hair without restricting its natural movement, finish off with one of Dove's several Damage Therapy hair sprays.
