Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have used this product only a few times. But I LOVE IT SO MUCH! It makes my hair appear thicker and healthier, full of bounce and body, without making it sticky, gooey, stiff, or anything else. Fifteen tiny squirts above the earline rubbed into my hair and then a quick blow dry and I have the head of hair I've always wanted. Just plain incredible! Honestly, I do not work for the company. I do not get any benefit by saying nice things about this treatment. For my thin, aging, long, limp, graying hair this product is absolute perfection!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I originally gave this product a 3-star good news/bad news review. After the first few weeks of using this gel my hair felt dry and coated with product as though I'd used a light-hold hairspray. Following the instructions put far too much product onto my hair. Once I began applying it with a less heavy hand, and realized I don't need to use the gel after each and every shampoo, I am much happier with the results. Denatured alcohol is the first listed ingredient, and I believe the Pantene gel is drying to my hair. To protect my hair from this, I apply a leave-in conditioner (Sebastian Potion 9) to the ends of my damp hair. So far the combination of gel and conditioner is working beautifully.

I am 70 years old and my moderately-dry, fine, highlighted hair is becoming finer at my temples. For that reason, I was excited to give this product a try. For the past six weeks, I've applied it regularly to the roots at my hairline, on clean, towel-dried hair. My hair looks noticeably fuller, still feels soft, and has retained a nice shine. I've deducted 1 star because my hairs aren't actually growing thicker as promised. Instead my hair is simply puffier. That said, it definitely looks like I have a heavier head of hair and sometimes just the appearance of more hair is enough.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I am an Amazon.com Vine Program reviewer and am offered two books or products twice a month in exchange for an honest review. This month I saw some products that my wife might benefit from. She asked me to order this one for her. I did so with the promise that she would write the review. This is her review:

"I suffer from what I call "Thyroid Hair" which means that I have thin, fine, dry, flat hair. I was fortunate to get the Pantene Expert Collection Advanced Thickening Treatment from Vine. It has now been 10 days of thickening treatments and I can honestly say that my hair is fuller and has much more body. The thickening treatment that is applied either to a wet or dry scalp daily to add fullness. The package insert states that after age 40 the hair has achieved its peak diameter and grows thinner as we age. This light weight non-sticky clear fluid has a light scent that does not bother my sensitive allergies. The directions are clear and easy but I will say it does take a little extra time in the morning as you apply approximately 15 full pumps to your scalp and then massage to spread the product throughout the hair. The 4.2 oz bottle is available for under $20.00. I am not sure how long this will last at 15 full pumps per day, but so far it is worth the time and expense. Daily use is encouraged to get the full benefit of this product. I have used many hair products both from the salons and from the drug stores but this is the first time that I have had any success with making my hair look healthier."

I can tell you first hand that my wife's hair looks so much nicer than it has for years and we are really happy with the quality this product.

Although this product was free in exchange for this review, we will reorder it when this one gets low.

Enjoy!

Honest reviews on Pantene Pro-V Expert Collection AgeDefy Advanced Thickening

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I was looking forward to trying Pantene Advanced Hair Thickening Treatment because my hair is becoming finer as I get older. The description of the product sounded perfect.

The fragrance is too strong for me and lasts long enough to compete with the cologne I like to use.

It's a gel consistency. Directions say to use 15 pumps (on wet or dry hair) at the roots to cover the scalp from ear line up. I don't wash my hair every day so using this every day, as Pantene suggests, is not feasible. The first day, my hair felt softer but after that, dirty and limp.

If Pantene thinks it's just going to stay on the scalp and not get on hair, I don't think they're taking the average consumer into account.

It's also snowing in Upstate New York now and the snow that melts on my hair, along with the gel makes my hair look dirty and dull.

I liked the fact that it's gentle enough for colored hair. That was a plus for me. Red hair color fades the fastest that's one reason I don't wash my hair every day.

I usually like Pantene products and I'm pretty sure this will work for others, it just doesn't work for me.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I was not sure what to expect from Pantene Pro-V Expert Collection Age Defy Advanced Hair Thickening Treatment. The name itself takes so long to say that it is almost intimidating! I have been doing hair for quite a few years now, so I realize that not every product lives up to the hype.

This hair treatment comes in a clear plastic bottle which has a pump top on it. The pump top has a cap that locks into place so it helps prevent a clog from happening over time.

The smell is very nice herbal smell with a touch of floral, but it is still quite unisex and not too girly smelling. I have tested this on a man and woman with two different types of hair. I have tested it on hair that is medium thick but color treated and thinning, and I have tested it on baby fine hair which takes a lot to give it body.

In both cases, you squirt a tiny dot of clear gel on the scalp. I only used it on the top of the head, however, as that is all I really needed to see it work. By making about six parts on the scalp and putting a dot the size of a lentil on the front middle and back of each part (from front back toward the crown of the head) it was easy to massage the gel into the scalp where it absorbed easily and quickly.

This process only takes about five minutes tops if you are really deliberate at it.

I found that in both cases, the results were instant. The hair was immediately thicker and stood up straighter from the scalp making it look thicker immediately. By using it every other day, the results seemed to stay well, but if I waited longer than that between applications, the results did not stay well.

Each treatment seemed to increase the thick appearance a little until the hair did look nice and thicker than it was before. I noticed on the medium thick hair (which was thinning on top) that the results were much more dramatic than on the baby fine hair. However, the baby fine hair was also remarkably thickened.

PROS

Makes hair look thicker after first application

Unisex fragrance

No itching or flaking

Not sticky

Absorbs into scalp

Does not make hair dirty

Very effective with small amount

CONS

Has to be used daily or at least every other day

Results depend on constant use

Expensive for amount purchased

All in all, if you have thinning hair and want a boost at the top of your head, this is not an inexpensive solution, but it does work, and remarkably so! I am quite impressed at how much thicker it made the two different types of hair after just one use (for a day or two). No bad reactions or side effects over a longer period of use make this a nice way to boost hair that needs a bit of a boost for thicker appearance. I was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked and highly recommend it.
