Nexxus Emergencee Strengthening Polymeric Reconstructor, 3.3-Ounce Package Reviews

• Amazing

  
  By AQD5KJ615OHJN on 2007-03-23
  My wife and I bought this product for our young daughter because she has a hair condition in which her hair is soooo dry that it constantly breaks off thus appearing as if she doesn't have much hair. The hair she does have doesn't even feel like hair it feels more like carpet that is until we started using this product. The first time we used it we noticed that her hair really felt soft when we finished. By about the 4th time we used the product my daughters hair felt normal all of the time, it is no longer breaking off and even has developed a sheen.
  
  We had tried everything from oiling her hair twice a day to using perscription medication to try and help but nothing did. This worked; now I will admit that by the 4th treatment we were using the Nexus Shampoo and Humestress Conditioners in conjunction with this product so that may have helped as well but this about the best haircare product I or my wife have ever seen.
  This is a reconstructor people, not shampoo or conditioner it's there to fix what is broken in your hair not smell good, use the shampoos and conditioners in addition to this product for that.
  
  

• Miracle in a Bottle

  
  By A1AHHNF3ZPFRPY on 2007-02-01
  I purchased this product about 3 months ago and it is a miracle in a bottle. My hair was breaking off for unknown reasons. After the first use, I noticed my hair stopped breaking. I use this product every two weeks on my relaxed hair. The key is to wash your hair with your regular shampoo, rinse and then put Emergencee on. Leave it on for at least 5 minutes. (Once I went outside and did a little shopping and came back.) Wash the product out with water only, then shampoo your hair again and condition and style as usual. My hair is stronger, healthier, and bouncier then it has ever been. When I comb my hair in the shower or out of the shower there is little or no breakage. I could go on and on about this product. I will never do without it.
  
  

• Best thing I've used so far

  
  By A1J9ESKYQJKPRU on 2007-07-06
  I am a product junkie and have spent shameful amounts of money on products that don't work. This is one of the more expensive things I've tried - but this one really works.
  
  You should be warned - this is NOT a deep conditioner. When you rinse it out, you really need to follow it up with a good moisturizing conditioner and leave it on for 3 minutes or so. If you do not, you will rinse this out and think your hair feels like straw and you'll be horribly disappointed. I know I was. But if you follow it up with a good conditioner, you'll notice a huge difference. My hair has never been so soft or felt so healthy.
  
  I used it once a week for two weeks, then backed off to one time every two weeks. I have fairly long hair and I'm getting about 6 uses out of a bottle. Even though this is on the expensive side, I will definitely repurchase.
  
  

• miracle reconstruction for the hair in need

  WOW! this word sums up my thoughts on this product. I have super fine, heavily color-treated hair which was described by a couple of stylist as "far beyond any help" Everyone would always comment they were surprised I wasnt bald by now (Im only 21!!) but I dye my hair every month sometimes a couple of times a month going from dark brown to red to brown to blond and so forth. I also blow dry and use a straightener about 3 times a week.So let's say that an old used broom had more shine and silk than my hair. I've always looked for products to help my hair but none really work, I had completely given up on my endless search for the perfect treatment because after spending so much $ on products that promise so much and deliver so little I started to think that really there was no help for my poor hair..... UNTIL i came across this product. It is incredible, pricey for such a small bottle you might think but not pricey for the results it delivers. After using it the first time I didn't notice the biggest change, It did seem shinier and definitely softer but it wasn't until the second time I used it that I was completely amazed my hair is absolutely restored!! my hair hasn't been this silky and soft in a loooong time. Definitely worth it for hair emergencies that are crying out for some conditioning. Try it!
  
  

• Holy Moly! I'm in love!

  This stuff is seriously amazing. Bit of background: I have dry, wavy/curly, shoulder-length hair, and I've just moved out of a house that had atrocious well water. I also color my hair. It's been really dull, frizzy and damaged for a while, so I read reviews for this and figured I'd try it out. Here's exactly how I used it:
  
  First, I shampooed with my L'Oreal Everpure Moisturizing Shampoo. Then I put in about a quarter-sized amount of Emergencee in my hair and left it in for approximately 2 minutes, then rinsed with lukewarm water, as per the directions. Then I followed with a ton of L'Oreal Everpure Moisturizing Conditioner mixed with a decent amount of Paul Mitchell's Tea Tree Hair and Scalp Treatment (HIGHLY recommend), left on for about 5 minutes. Rinsed and blow-dried, and was completely amazed with the results.
  
  It wasn't until I straightened my hair that I saw just how markedly improved my hair is as a result of using Emergencee. It's a lot shinier, and it feels like silk, so I can't stop touching it. I can't wait to see what happens with continued use, since the results are so drastic after only one application.
  
  
• This stuff is amazing
  By A3PGKSTKRBQYRV on 2009-10-16
  I tried everything, and I mean everything after I got a really bad overprocessed perm on top of color treated hair. My hair looked like straw and felt even worse. I broke 2 combs just trying to get a comb through it. My daughter in law is the manager of a beauty supply store and recommended several professional only products which are supposed to be excellent which did little or nothing. In desparation I went to the local Walgreens and picked up the Nexxus Emergencee, expecting it to be the same as everything else I tried. I don't even know why I picked it from all the others on the shelf. I guess because of the name and this was an emergency!!! It looks different from anything else, it is an amber color gel. When I put it on my hair, it felt really awful, dry and coarse and tangle-y and I expected no results. I left it on 2 minutes and rinsed my hair and immediately felt a difference. But you do have to follow up with a conditioner as this stuff is a reconstructor, not a conditioner. I used "It's a 10" as the conditioner after rinsing out Emergencee, and couldn't believe the difference. My hair was a totally hopeless frizzed out straw patch, and this brought it back to life. Not like it was before the perm, but as close as anything that I have ever used, and believe me, I just spent a fortune on products that didn't work. It is really great stuff if you have damaged hair. I won't be without it.
  
  
• Fabulous!
  By A3PHMK45L2QCEX on 2008-07-16
  When I first tried this product, I thought I'd been mislead: The formula is an odd smelling gel that is in no way thick or shape-holding. It's very liquidy. It also seems to disappear after you put it in, and your hair feel rubbery, especially when you wash it out.
  
  But here's the thing: It actually works!!! I used this immediately after undergoing the color-removal process, and it resealed my porous, vulnerable hair. It even prevented my ends from splitting.
  
  I realize that it's very pricey, but it's totally worth it. Nexxus is expensive because they pay human volunteers to salon test their products, thus skipping the evil animal testing step. So when you buy this, know that your indulgence will leave you with great hair and no guilt.
  
  
• AMAZING!!
  By A2OI5TXZGF96IK on 2007-06-16
  I have baby fine, curly hair. It breaks if you look at it wrong. I highlight and style with heat. I have spent hundreds of dollars on products to help my baby fine hair and stop the breakage. I tried Emergencee today and am super impressed! My hair is healthier and significantly more managable! I used the recommended shampoo and conditioner too. I can't wait to see how my hair is after a couple of months! I will never be with out this product again. LOVE IT!
  
  
• Put it to the TEST!
  By AYDEEM2BX0467 on 2009-04-13
  I tried both the Nexxus Emergencee and the Kera Care Reconstructor. Both are pricey, but the Nexxus product left my hair strong and easier to style. I have fine, natural hair that was broken off due to relaxers, dyes, etc. If your hair is breaking off and feels dry to the touch, you need to give it a try. Two or three weeks and then every other week as needed. You will feel the difference. Always use with a good moisturing shampoo and conditioner with it.
  
  
• Excellent!
  By A3HUVYEPPWSWWQ on 2007-06-20
  I love this product. It stops my breakage and makes my hair soft and smooth. My only complaints are that it is difficult to find in stores and that you pay a lot for small amount.
  
  
• Amazing results if used correctly!!!
  By A32FJBDETOD155 on 2010-02-26
  The first thing I must say about this product is that it can do wonders for your hair, but only if you use it properly and have realistic expectations. Nexxus Emergencee is a hair Reconstructor and not a deep moisture product so you will need to use a rich moisturizing conditioner after using this product.
  
  I have curly, heavily damaged hair from a hairstylist who bleached half my head to a white blonde color. Needless to say I started losing clumps of hair and I did one deep treatment after another with no significant results. That is until I found this little bottle of gold! It doesn't have a bad smell its just different. It will spread easily through your hair and one bottle lasted me 8 full treatments on my below shoulder length hair. I also use it once a week without any problems.
  
  I used it on clean, slightly damp hair. After fully saturating my hair with the product, I apply low to medium heat for 20 to 30 minutes. This drys in my hair rock hard!! Thats good because it means it has allowed all the protein ingredients to bond correctly to my hair. When its dryed into my hair I carefully wash it out making sure not to disturb the hardened hair until it is rinsed out fully and then I apply the most mosturizing deep conditioner I have. I let that sit in my hair for 30 mins to an hour then rinse and my hair comes out amazing!!! You will notice a huge difference in the condition of your damaged hair after 2-3 treatments depending on how often you use it. It will just about be back to its previous condition before the damage occured.
  
  I highly recommend this product to anyone with damaged hair who needs a reconstructing treatment.
  
  
• best hair product
  By ABV1JC6265KCL on 2009-03-18
  this stuff it amazing! I have really long hair, and I've never had a problem with breakage, but this makes my hair soft, shiny and cooperative. It also helps with frizz caused by humidity, which is a constant in florida.
  
  
• Restores life to my hair
  By A3N01I266VIHZJ on 2008-11-02
  This stuff is fabulous. Whenever my hair seems a little lifeless, I know it's time for one of these treatments. And the best part: it takes all of three minutes. Fantastic!
  
  
• Worth your money
  By A2Y4S4CNGKF21S on 2009-04-16
  If you have problem hair, this I can honestly recommend. I use it aprox. once every two weeks (as is advised in the directions), and I can FEEL its strength even as I apply it from my hands. My hair instantly feels stronger and more solid. I begin with shampooing as usual, applying the product and leaving it for a few minutes, then I rinse and follow up with my usual conditioner. This does what it says, although I think for hair such as mine (frizzy, dry, damaged), I'd really need to use it more than twice a week to see any very long-lasting benefits.
  
  
• Miracle in a Bottle
  By A1ULEI22XVJ5ZS on 2010-06-17
  I'm 38 yrs old and have tried so many products over the years in an effort to control my frizz. My hair is wavy, dry, and frizzy. I do not perm or color treat my hair. I blow dry straight with a round brush and most of the time end up pulling it back within 10 minutes of walking out the door even on a semi-humid day because it kinks and frizzes so badly. I even bought a really good flat iron to no avail. Have tried letting it be it's natural curl and it's a mess, frizz everywhere and like so many of you I have spent an enormous amount of $ on products only to be disappointed again and again. Well, I read about this product yesterday in my search for yet another product that might help and used this for the first time this morning with the Nexxus Moisturizing shampoo and conditioner (as recommended on the box). I could immediately feel the difference in the shower when rinsing this product out and for the first time EVER I have frizz free, soft, smooth hair. Absolutely amazing product! Thank you Nexxus.
  
  
• Great Service!
  By AN9CLV8CQTKZ8 on 2008-03-07
  Great product. Leaves hair stronger. Too bad is so small. Still, is quite good, and it lasts. No other product is like this. Good use of protein!
  
  
• Miracle in a small bottle
  By A3SWJM31B6K180 on 2007-03-28
  This stuff is saving my hair. There's been a dramatic reduction in breakage and I've only used it twice on my relaxed hair. If you're suffering from hair breakage, I highly recommend it. Be prepared to order it though, as I haven't been able to find it in a store yet.
  
  
• Great product but I still have not received it.
  By A2RZ0DQDWNS2M9 on 2010-08-11
  I have used this product previously. It is really great when your hair is dry and brittle from the weather or swimming, etc.
  However I ordered this product in mid-July. It is now mid-August. I haven't received it and no one wants to take responsibility for losing my package. The Postal Service says FedEx and FedEx says Postal Service. The Postal Service states they are having problems with FedEx scanning a package and not delivering it. Of course, my statement is, why are you wanting the customer to run down your FedEx problem? I won't be ordering from amazon.com anymore. Its too much of a hassle.
  
  
• Blessing in a bottle...
  By A1VX7UN5BMAZI5 on 2010-07-19
  I have been suffering from breakage around my hair line area, from over processing my bangs and layers in the front with blowdrying and flat irons. There is one area of my hair that is unbelievably brittle, just seems to grow in that way and nothign has been able to fix it. This product seemst o be working to tame it adn stop the brittle feeling and the dryness.
  
  The first tiem i used it i had washed my hair with the nexxus moisturizing shampoo then put this on for 5 minutes. it went on like a hot oil treatment, felt kinda greasy and oily. but i left it on and then rinsed it out. you have to either use the shampoo again or put on a thick moisturizer after it is rinsed otu though. otherwise it feels like oil slick or grease. i didnt notice until i was blow drying my hair how much better it felt!
  
  i am going to use this twice aweek, its worth the money!
  
  
• great product
  By AMI4KRFEMRFGV on 2010-04-19
  This product is God sent. A classmate in graduate school recommended this product to me. I was a little hesitant because I held the ignorant notion that nexus products would not be effective of ethic type hair. My hair had begun to break due to the rigorous expectations of medical school (stress) and lack of time to care for it, as my hair demand (I went three years without getting a trim due to time, hair is extremely dry). I have used this product for almost a year now and my hair has gone from a inch past my shoulders to nine inches past my shoulders and I accredit it to this product. My hair use to retain so much water and naturally dry in a Diana Ross/Shcoka Kon style and now my hair dries in half the time similar to the nexus commercials. Yes my hair is commercial quality, beautiful and filled with body due to this product. Try it you will be so glad you did.
