As usual, late to the festivities. American attempting to find effective alternative to discontinued Clairol Vitapointe.
Grandmother would copiously slather on the miracle cream and comb through locks - before tasking me with setting her hair (No, not on fire) on plastic or foam curlers to include use of tissue endpapers before the “roll”. Once out of her rickety bonnet hairdryer, and with precious little finger combing to merge the sections, she beamed with a perfectly lively and behaved, glistening, million-dollar coiffure.
Between washes, small amounts of Clairol Vitapointe could be brushed through without fear of introducing too much water that would lead to frizziness.
Alberto VO5 hairdressing was employed much the same after and between shampoos with good results; however, it restricted movement of the strands.
As I’ve become my grandmother, albeit with significantly more tress length than her chic bob (ergo a dangerously frizz-prone mass of strands), saying, “I need help”, is an understatement.
Having tried oh so many fabulous (just not for me) products, I remain convinced that the original Vitapointe formula is the gold standard for my mixed-mixed, hopefully crowning glory!
Seeking viable leave-in and leave-on alternative that may be applied to DRY hair to impart luster, movement , and moisture sans frizz!
