The original product is great. But for some reason this bottle of product is not as strong and effective as the sample I got from my hair dresser. It’s weaker, less effective and leaves my hair WAY less soft than the original one I got from the hairdresser although the product is identical. Makes me wonder if it has not been changed or watered down but I cannot confirm that as the texture and fragrance is the same. But the effect is definitely NOT!
