*Warning, this is long and possibly extremely annoying!!!***Hi beautiful long-haireds and wannabe-longhaireds!! I am most often in the Hair Extensions threads and sometimes Hair Colour. I wanted to post this review here because I know how important hair health can be to the maintenance as well as growth of our hair.
My review is for Grund Tiger Reconstructor. It is a salon product, but can be found on-line (Ebay, for eg.) if you do a search. There is not a lot of diversion with this product, so you won't find it in dept. stores.
I LOVE this product!!! Some background: I have about shoulder-length mostly bleach-blonde hair that I am babying back into healthy hair! LOL! My belief is that you can have decent looking bleached hair. You just have to do a lot of treatments to it and make sure not to overlap when doing the roots. This seems to be working for me. I bleach my roots every 4 weeks and always prepare for it by doing a major protein treatment followed by a major moisturizing treatment. My 3 favourite protein treatments are: Nexxus Emergencee, Sebastian Penetraitt and Aphogee Treatment for Damaged Hair. Now, I can add Grund to this list!
This is the way you're supposed to use it. You clarify, towel-dry the hair, then spray in the reconstructor. You saturate the hair until it's dripping, but DON't comb through. Throw a bag over your head (I use a plastic grocery bag!) and heat with a blow dryer for as long as you want. You take the bag off & then comb through the product. THEN, you dry it into the hair with your blowdryer. You can even follow that up with a flat iron, since it permanently bonds to your hair with the use of heat.
I thought all that was bullsh*t -- how can a product make your hair feel so good and permanently bond to the cuticle? Well, after the second use, I went on-line and purchased an 8 oz. bottle for $20. It's pricey, but worth it. My hair felt immediately thicker, softer and shinier after I used it. It's been three days since I last used it, and the shine on my hair is beautiful. I think this will help me on my hair journey to longer, healthier hair.
I am in no way affiliated with this company. I can tell you this: I will be buying more of this reconstructor and their Tiger Masque. ------------- Love clip-ins and tape! |

Hi fake-is-me, and welcome to this forum  I'm happy to hear the product works well for you. I've found that my hair is happiest when I occasionally use a protein-rich reconstructor... but only occasionally. Used every time it makes my hair crunchy, dry and tangly, but once in a while it's very helpful. |

Thank you for the rating. I was actually looking for a good reconstuctor. My hair has been doing well, but I wanted something to add some ompf to my ends. I just ordered this off of premiumhairproducts.com and I can't wait to try! I let you know how it goes

Dave, thanks for your warm welcome! I'm sorry I am responding so late; need to check in more. haha. 
I can't believe it. It's one of those products that I immediately noticed a difference in my hair. Did you follow it with a moisturizing conditioner? Also, I wonder if your hair even needs protein at all, since the proteins in this product are not animal or plant? They cannot be over-applied and don't really build up.
