So which one should someone start with? The Monoi or the Lisa's Elixer?? I've read the Lisa's Elixer is a clarifying shampoo and the Monoi stops breakage. Which will help my dry, color treated hair??

Go with the Monoi... I will warn you it does have a heavy fragrance BUT I have one of those noses that can't tolerate fragrance. The shampoo and conditioner I can tolerate but the oil and spray or any other monoi product is over powering to me.

It's almost unreal?? The three-piece starter kit is only $26 at Ulta.

Thanks bunjetto,

The fragrance can't be worse than the Shea Moisture shampoo fragrance I tried. It has the loudest bad perfume smell, I can't take loud perfume smells either and this one was overpowering! Do you recommend the conditioner too?

Yes shampoo and conditioner. I tried editing my original post to say although I can tolerate these two items... the spray oil and whatever else she has in the Monoi I can't handle way too strong. I didn't get the Ts as I knew I wouldn't want to wash my whole body in it Also go to her site ... good deals and 15% off if you add to your email list

I'm using the Monoi sacred strength serum; my hair is getting longer and I'm not having breakage. I don't care for the smell but it disappears and I only need 1 pump for longer than shoulder length hair.

Would that be the way to try it? Is the hair mask a good product too?

as I originally posted ladies this stuff is unreal. use the monoi shampoo/conditioner regularly and add the monoi mask for a long treatment when you have time some even sleep on it and wash in the morning . That is about once a week the sacred strength serum I use daily for split ends or flyaways sine I almost never have split ends anymore but the serum just absorbs right in and is fantastic

as far as the anti breakage spray the other poster is right that is heavy duty and leaves a sheen on hair I think its best for really coarse hair to soften it

and to top it off the monoi body oil lotion has transformed my skin after shaving legs rub it in and its like silk I cant believe the changes and I hope someone reading this can try it and feel great about their hair really a hair changer please try it . HSN carries great prices better than the stores

well I hope someone benefits by this info ,,,,, Pay it forward

It irritated my scalp so a heads up that it may not work for everyone. I liked the conditioner more than the shampoo. FYI my hair is fine & naturally curly.
