Giovanni 2CHIC Ultra Sleek Leave-in conditioner and styling elixir is made with Brazilian keratin and argan oil - two very trendy ingredients at the moment. This hair product claims to smooth and style every hair strand, banish frizz, and defend against split ends.

After shampooing and conditioning, I have applied Giovanni 2CHIC Leave-in conditioner evenly throughout my damp locks. The hair immediately felt soft, non-greasy, and manageable. However, the scent wasn't very pleasant, perhaps because it contains no artificial fragrance?

PROS:

• Deep conditioning
• Works well with heat
• Protects colour
• Makes hair softer
• Eco-friendly
• USDA certified organic ingredients
• 100% Vegetarian
• No phthalates
• No artificial fragrance, dyes, sulfates, parabens
• Smoothing effect
• Great packaging - convenient, medium sized pump makes it easy to use and apply

CONS:
Funky smell

Recently, I have tried Giovanni - 2Chic Brazilian Keratin & Argan Oil Ultra-Sleek Shampoo and Conditioner available at local drug stores such as Walmart and Target. My hair is long, wavy, thick and freezy in texture, color treated, requires a lot of shampooing and deep conditioning. This product claims that it will "smooth every strand, seduce with shine, banish frizz, and achieve enviable manageability."

The Giovanni 2Chic Brazilian Keratin & Argan Oil Shampoo & Conditioner both have generally average ratings. It's definitely not a super high end, high quality product, but worth trying if purchased on sale. The scent is OK, but could be worse. It reminds me of coconut and cheap Suave conditioners and shampoos. It didn't straighten my hair all that much, and instead made it somewhat dry.  

Pros:

• no chemicals, certified organic, 100% vegetarian ingredients
• affordable
• could work well for fine hair
• hair feels thicker and heavier 
• great for shorter hair
• could work well on African American hair

Cons:

• not very moisturizing
• doesn't perform well with thick hair
• not recommended for longer hair
