Kativa Hair Straightening Kit Extra Shine

Why does this smell like mould when it washes out, its horrendous. It works to relax hair and make it smooth but my lord the smell... Show details

Got this for $10 ... as far as straightening and getting rid of frizz goes, this product does an excellent job! Also something that it doesn't state on the box or in the leaflet, is that it is an absolute fantastic hair colour stripper! Even removes permanent hair colour. If I wanted a hair colour remover, I would of been super impressed. However… Read more

I did not want to remove my colour as I really quite liked the colour of my hair. Now my hair is orange and won't absorb any hair colours. F**k!

Did not work at all – I thought I don’t have to use iron for my hair for couple weeks and I can have some break from heating and if it work I will keep using it but My hair is still same as before. It took so long and then no difference after and before. I have frizzy and non shiny hair, very dry, I was excited and hoping for good results also I used all directions correctly but all in vain it just wasted my lots and lots time. Show details

Bad hair day – Wish I'd read the reviews first. This product stinks! It has made my hair a bit smoother and softer but the smell is so not worth it. I am considering getting my hair cut off because I can't stand the smell. Show details

Worked for me, will buy again – This really worked for my hair which is a 4-5 on the wave level. I did this in stages, so washed my hair the day before, then applied the mask on day two. I left the mask on for about 20mins, def felt smoother during the final blow dry than when I normally dry it. I did finish it off with a hair straightener and it is has stayed smooth all afternoon in the humid north qld weather! Will buy again. Show details

Don't recommend at all – I tried this today and it doesn't work. Made absolutely no difference and dried out my already dry hair even more. I followed the instructions to the letter, even watched a YouTube video with no effect. I have curly, frizzy hair which didn't even straighten slightly. A couple of years ago I purchased the Dark and Lovely relaxer kit and it worked… Read more

perfectly. No complaints at all. Kicking myself now for not sticking with something I know worked. Very disappointed. Don't buy!!

Works as intended! Hard work though! – So I researched this product throughly before purchase and I decided to take the risk, I have super unruly hair that’s a mix between curls and waves and just frizz when brushed! I knew what I was getting into when purchasing this and honestly the blow drying of the product isn’t easy but the results were great! It’s been about 3-4 weeks and my… Read more

hair is starting to get a wave back but it’s still frizz free and shiny! The product promises 4 weeks so understandable. I do have to add though that my hair still smells like the solution after washed, not as strong but it’s present. I also really struggled with the smell at the time of treatment so if you have scent sensitivities then I’d probably advise against any of these treatments! For me it was a worthwhile purchase!

Awesome results! – I tried this Kavita home straightening kit for the first time, and it really works!!!! My hair is about a 5 on their curl chart, and it is relatively fine. My hair goes super frizzy with the slightest bit of humidity, but since using Kavita it now stays straight...no frizz!!! I colour my hair every 3 weeks, and I did the treatment the day before… Read more

my colour. I followed the instructions exactly. It was a bit of work, but for $25 I got the same result as my last $400 in salon hair straightening treatment. Winner!!!!

Save your money – Made no difference whatsoever. Not only that but it took so long. You have to wash your hair, dry it, put this crap in, dry it. Then wash hair twice, condition and find out your hair is exactly the same as it was 2 hours ago. What a joke and total waste of money. Obviously all other reviews are paid for. Also, DO NOT use if you have dyed blonde hair. It alters the colour and it goes brassy yellow. Even purple shampoo wont fix it. Show details

Amazing keratin hair straightener – I was sceptical of this being effective, as my hair in the Sydney humidity is a complete frizz-ball, but I was desparate and it was on sale at my local Chemist Warehoue :-) My hair on the 'curl scale' is a 5, and the instructions note the product may be less effective but I went ahead anyway, following the instructions exactly, with the addition… Read more

of using straightening irons after the hairdryer stage, and........WOW!! My hair was as straight and frizz-free as if I had come from the hairdressers, AND it has stayed like that for the last week, through washes and swimming. I still blowdry it, but no straighteners are needed, it just dries flat - flippin' fantastic!! I think this worked for me as my hair isn't supercurly, and is quite fine. But I am very happy with the result. Thanks Kativa!
