Review: Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Moisture Mist

About a year ago, my hair dresser referred me to Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Moisture Mist claiming it to be one of the most versatile yet effective treatments. After about a year of use, I'm hooked. I had never been a huge Paul Mitchell fan, and the few products I had used I felt were no more impressive than drugstore brands. A few years later, I decided I'd give it a go again, and I'm sure glad I did. I spray this mist on my damp hair after each wash with hair flipped over, though it can be sprayed on dry as well. 
Pros:By the time my hair has dried, it's noticeably smooth. Throughout the day, I often re-spray and smooth with my fingers to touch up. This product is also great on sunburns. I thought my hairstylist was joking when she mentioned applying to the skin, but it really is soothing. Another plus, there is no such thing as too much, no crunchiness, grease, or frump. All in all you can't go wrong with this one.I recommend this for frizzy straw like hair. The light fresh scent is just the icing on the cake.
Cons: At times, I wonder I question its potency, being that it is sooo thin and watery, and I do find myself retouching a lot.

Awapuhi
For those of you who have no idea what Awupuhi is (me included), I thought I'd provide a little background. Awapuhi, known as shampoo ginger, originated in India, and was used as medicine, shampoo, and wash for its hydrating qualities.
