Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I feel bad about my "meh" comment in this review's subject heading, but after using Ookisa products for about a year, I've weighed the pros and cons and, well...
Like with any new product, at first there were noticeable results. Nothing dramatic, but *I* could tell that my normally fine, limp hair felt fuller, bouncier, with nice movement. As someone who was used to at least one bad hair day a week, it was nice to have a reliable hair product that seemed to give me more to work with, less to have to work *around* if that makes sense. I won't say no more bad hair days, but for awhile there it was pretty close.
Then, of course, my hair adjusted. Took awhile, but I'd say on my second Ookisa shipment, I could tell the improvements weren't lasting. I'd been hoping that all the talk about "building your hair from the inside" was true, and that my hair would... I dunno... change somehow. I know that's stupid, being's as this is a "cosmetic" product and nothing can actually change the physical chemistry of your hair. But hope springs eternal, I guess. And there was a SERUM, dag nab it!! How could something that sounds so scientific turn out to be a load of bunk?!
Granted, "bunk" is a strong word and I don't mean to say that Ookisa products are worthless. The ingredients are clearly high-quality, and I really do appreciate how clean & soft & shiny they make my hair. However: if only they actually performed the miracle(s) they suggest they do! Then, they'd be worth the expense. As a woman who's known to spare no expense when it comes to beauty products, I have to admit that this "hair care system" is not worth the money.
And speaking of money -- I'm glad Amazon's in on this action, cause when I purchased, the only way to obtain Ookisa was thru the company's website. I had to sign up for a "plan" that automatically sent me shampoo, conditioner & nighttime serum for a whopping $70 plus $5.99 shipping (which was originally free, but then they started adding it on this year, with no notice).
The first time I tried to cancel, they took my info & then failed to follow thru so I wound up with another shipment. I called back -- told them I'd keep the shipment but please please please cancel me for real this time. They countered by saying I "qualified" for a "special members discount" that would get me the same products for $39.99, plus shipping. Ha! So I've been paying almost twice as much for god only knows how long....??
I don't even wanna think about it.
Anyway, try the products for short-term benefits and maybe just maybe you'll hit the jackpot & have hair that actually can structurally change for the better. Or not -- and at least you can give 'em a whirl here for cheaper than their website, with no membership obligations. Good luck to you and your hair!
