I used it today in a hurry on my dry hair. I didn't get any volume. There is a learning curve with tweak products. I tried 2 other items and didn't like them at first.
I kept experimenting and they turned out to be excellent.
By the way, I found huge bottles of Ojon shampoo and conditioner in the back of a cabinet.
As a coincidence, in the last Hsn show Dennis said he found the same items and that if there are sealed they are still good after 20 years.
I sent a photo of the Ojon bottles last week on his Instagram, asking if they are still good. Wierd.

I wouldn't use anything that was 20yo. or even close to that. I think Denis is mistaken. Two years maybe but not 20.

My apologies in advance if that's what he said.

I also watched that show @Bibione, and heard Dennis say if the seal is not broken, it should be still good.

But that would also depend on the environment - bathroom storage could compromise quality with the variance in temperature and humidity. If it doesn't have a foul odor or weirdness physically, like separation, I would still use iit

I couldn't tell from the description of the scalp serum what exactly it's supposed to do.

@Chi-town girl It was a great price. I was all set to order it - looks like a really good serum, BUT then I saw it had caffeine! I almost took the chance, but decided it wasn't worth it. I hate when items contain that ingredient ....

@moonandthestars Can I ask why you don't like caffeine in hair products? It's in a lot of products because it's supposed to help with increasing circulation to the scalp and promoting hair growth.

SilleeMee · ‎05-22-2016

Caffeine used in hair/scalp products is thought to inhibit a particular enzyme which is seen in hair loss. When that enzyme is inhibited, the hair growth phase is enhanced which theoretically can lead to a fuller head of hair.

@lkat It's just a personal thing. I can't tolerate caffeine, I had to stop drinking coffee, then I noticed I had symptoms from a body cream that had it as an ingredient, same with eye creams. Just gives me issues! I am proof that these ingredients can penetrate from skin to into the body! I know there is a reason for manufacturers to use that ingredient, but personally I wish they wouldn't, especially since I know there are other similar types of ingredients that could be used for the increasing of circulation, etc. I always have to read ingredients carefully because of this and wish it was more prominently listed, if it's there. It is in a lot of things, so it's disappointing to have to avoid.

I remember Ojon and it has a smell and consistency of "oil" based product. Maybe that was the leave over night stuff? still I wouldn't use anything in my bathroom 20yrs old LOL! That's just me...I would toss it for sure. Things do spoil no matter how much preservatives put in and I thought he used very little in this line like his tweak'd line. At least that's what he always says...

@moonandthestars Thank you. I know I see it a lot in hair products and eye creams and have never given it a thought. I'm sorry you can't tolerate it. Must be a real pain to have to check everything since some ingredient lists are so long.
