MARCO PELUSI ANTI-FRIZZ LEAVE IN CONDITIONER WITH COLLAGEN COLOR GUARD! HUMP DAY HAIR DAY!
Meg here to bring you reviews on one of Marco Pelusi's signature, cult-favorite products, his leave in anti-frizz conditioner.
Living in LA has it perks! I was eating dinner at my trusty deli when Mr. Marco himself popped into the booth next to me. I had to speak to him. You knw when you're in the presence of someone that just exudes upbeat energy and a great smile and full out beams friendliness it's hard to not want to strike up a chat. Mr. Marco is all of those things, he is simply delightful and I was so happy I got the chance to become his friend. This was a few years back so Megsmakeup.com was not even a blip on my radar (um computer) screen at that point. I just wanted to get to know someone that was so passionate and creative and talented. Within the first 15 minutes of chatting with Marco he was already telling me some great ideas for my hair color.
When Marco decided to open a new salon he graciously invited me to his very fabulous opening party. Great food, drinks and goody bags of his new signature products were included. I also got to meet Marco's dad. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, the entire Pelusi clan is warm and talented!
At this point, I had started Megsmakeup, so when I got home I dived into my new Marco Pelusi products. They were all fab and geared toward color treated hair (as you all know-I am slave to the dye) so I was in Heaven. Unfortunately, having to dye my hair so often leaves the ends dry and brittle and fly-away. This is why, I can tell you, Marco's leave in conditioner is a Godsend.
It works on my thin hair without weighing it down and without any greasy feeling. It doesn't give the appearance of oily-just healthy. With a pump (yes ladies, a pump-hooray~) I add this to wet, but towel dried hair and I can actually get a comb through my tresses without the slightest bit of pull. I've spoken to other women that love this as well. The funny thing is, we all have different hair textures. From my lifeless hair to my girlfriends that battle hair bulge and poofiness-well, it appears to universally work. How the heck did he manage that?
For my lucky LA area girls, Marco's salon is right in West Hollywood and it is tranquil and gorgeous. I would be remiss if I didn't tell you he won MyFOXLA Best Hair Color! So he's a true artist that knows not only how to give you your perfect shade but then how to protect it with his products. My hair color truly is more vibrant and longlasting with his color guard protection!
Here's what Marco says about his Leave In Conditioner "this signature product is an exclusive, anti-frizz formula that repairs, restores and rebuilds, leaving the hair and scalp comforted and protected. an ultra luxurious, light and airy leave-in conditioner expressly formulated to replenish the hair’s own natural reserves to boost condition, as well as haircolor longevity, vitality and tone. tames curly, coarse hair while allowing for easy comb-thru and a smooth, healthy appearance."

I'm the polar opposite of Olliebee =) My hair is flat and fine =) but this worked great for me!I have really long hair and I put it on like meg onto my towel dried hair after the shower and it leftmy hair easy to comb through and smooth smooth smooth!! After my hair dried I added a tiny bit more to theends and it left them silky. I overdid it the first time and used a few pumps and it was a bit heavy.Well the next time around I used just over a pump and it was plenty and left my hair light and happy,not weighed down at all! The smell is fresh and clean and the bottle is nice and big. And needing only over a pump this will last and last!! Great product! My fine and bleached hair looked smooth and full of life! No evidence of the trauma I put it through =) I'm anxious to try more from this line! Great stuff!! Oh and The web-site is nice and classy too!!
I’ve used marco color anit-frizz leave-in conditioner with collagen color guard a lot lately. This is a wonderful product. We here in Southern California have had our share of crazy weather lately - those Santa Ana winds really do a number on my hair, skin and cause me to get headaches! HA, I know, that’s beside the point.. I really like what this does to my hair.. It repairs, restores and rebuilds plus it leaves my hair and scalp feeling great. My hair is super thick and can be superdooper frizzy.. If I don’t blow it out it just goes wild.. If it dries untouched with this on it actually looks very pretty. What I also really like to do is pull my hair back after putting this on (still wet) and clip It in an up-do! Man it looks slick! If you could feel it you would not belive how soft and silky if feels. This gives it a fantastic finish. I love leave-in conditioners anyway.. I usually leave some of whatever I am using as it is when I wash and condition my hair. I find it to be silly to rinse out all your conditioner- One other important note..I have noticed that it truly helps my color stay longer and the tone of my hair seems to remain as well. I like the way it smells too! I think it’s a great product and am very interested in other products too, besides this signature product•
This does smell great, just clean and fresh. I dislike my hair smelling like flowers or cookies. It's also a great size, a huge pump bottle that will last forever. BUT it's pretty heavy. Like Liliy mentioned the first time I used it I went overboard and my hair was pretty limp. I found I don't even need a whole pump. When I got the amount right this did make my hair very silky and tamed my frizz really well. Good stuff!
I love pumps. When Meg handed me this bottle I was ecstatic: a full sized hair product that smells great AND has a pump?! Yay. But I always found trouble in leave-in conditioners. See, my hair is thick, long and frizzy, which means that in order to unfrizz I need a huge amount of product and after it unfrizzes, my hair is very very heavy. That's what happened with the Marco Pelusi leave-in conditioner too. I loved the smell and the pump, but in order for it to unfrizz my hair I need to put so much that makes my hair heavy and dull when they dry. I still use it though cause it smells just great, but I use conditioner in the shower and then add a little bit of leave-in conditioner.
I am the perfect candidate for a product like this because I have extremely thick extremely frizzy hair. I've battled withit my entire life and spend 30-45 minutes each day blowing it out straight and as my husband so nicely states, its still"puffy". I'll try anything to help. I haven't found my miracle yet, but this stuff works. I really noticed a difference.The first day I used it I noticed a difference. It has a nice clean quiet smell and I just worked it through my hair. Iwasn't expecting anything, but after drying I noticed my hair was much softer, thus less frizzy. I've been using it almost everyday. Nothing will fully take away my frizz, but out of everything I've tried this ranks in my top 2 (Prawduct'sFlat Factor is my #1). Would definately recommend.
I have fine, thin hair that can be very knotty after I shower. I've been using the Marco Pelusi Anti-Frizz Leave In Conditioner as a detangler in my towel-dried hair. It really helps a and my wide tooth comb just glides through my hair. I too love the scent, fresh and clean and light. Just what I love in a product! Take note, the girls are right, a little bit of this product goes a long way. I use just a small drop and avoid the roots of my hair.
