i tried this Dr. Miracle cause a friend told me how good it works. Just the first time it was in my hair the smell and the fact i was getting hot all over should have been a clue that it wasn't doing anything good for my hair. That weekend I got my hair done and while my hair was being combed not only did i see how much hair was coming out but my girlfriend did to, it broke my hair in the middle of my head while i had a issue with last year and had gotten it back right this year. I don't do to much to my hair and because of how my friend hair looked before she used it and to now i wanted to give it a try but i see the best thing for me is to stay with what works best for my hair and that is not DR. MIRACLE.
