Our Reviews
Confused that this product is labeled as safe and formaldehyde free- when it takes a few minutes to confirm that’s not true Glyoxyloyl carbocysteine, a main ingredient in the second product, does not contain formaldehyde, BUT formaldehyde (a known cause of reproductive cancers) IS RELEASED in the form of an inhalant (gas) when heated to a high temperature with a flat iron.
I wanted to wait a few weeks before writing a review so I could see how long the results would last and give a more thorough review.
I have mid back length 3C curly, fine hair and a LOT of it. Very prone to frizz and split ends and honestly always looks a mess when natural in the hellish humid Georgia summer. I choose Gussi because I wanted to see if there was a way to get some maintenance for my hair without shelling out $400 on a professional keratin treatment.
The process of actually applying the treatment was pretty straightforward! I followed the instructions exactly and it took about 90 minutes from start to finish. That’s about the same amount of time it takes me to blow dry and straighten my hair normally!!! I did not notice any super unpleasant smells so they definitely reformulated. My hair looked SO good after straightening. I was so impressed, it’s never been that straight, shiny, soft and my highlights were GLOWING. My only regret was not scheduling something afterward so I could show it off!
I would say the first week I was having best hair ever. My curls were lying flatter and my frizz was dramatically reduced. By the end of the second week I noticed that the hair on the top of my head around my face was definitely getting back to its normal frizzy state. I only wash my hair twice a week so I think this is because I workout and sweat a lot so that definitely makes the product dissipate faster. The lengths of my hair are still quite soft and tame though. I also noticed that it made the ends of my hair more brittle. Especially, when I blow dry and straighten. I’m now at the end of week three, and the humidity is definitely overpowering the treatment, and frizz is setting in faster but still more reduced than it was pretreatment. I think I’ll have another week or two of benefits before it’ll be back to normal. I’m going to order another bottle (I have about 1/4 left of the first one) and do it again at the 6 week mark and probably continue for the rest of the summer because it has helped and maybe being consistent will help it last longer than a couple weeks.

One day my hair just suddenly changed texture! I think it was the color I put on my roots. My hair was super frizzy and kinky and terrible (normally my hair is smooth and fine- it turned rough and really puffy). I was ready to spend a fortune on a pro treatment but I found this product and it was a game changer. If you follow the directions exactly I guarantee you will be very pleased w the results. Thank you so much, gussi…I’m so happy!!!

I was gifted by Gussi hair, the Gussi At-Home Keratin Treatment Kit. This formula hits the head on the nail. The Squeaky Clean Priming Shampoo is what I think begins the process of beautiful straight hair. When added with the Gussi Smooth Operator Keratin Treatment, a perfect bond is created. Leaving my hair free free, straight, and easy to manage.

The Top It Off - Silky Satin Scrunchie is perfect for securing my hair without causing any damage or creases. The It Takes Two - Dual Ended Comb is incredibly versatile and helps me achieve smooth, tangle-free hair effortlessly. The Get A Grip - 4 Sectioning Hair Clips are fantastic for keeping my hair in place while styling, making the process so much easier. And the The Catch-All - Neoprene Case is a lifesaver for keeping everything organized and travel-ready.

I received the Gussi Tools and accessories bundle complimentary from Gussi. The Gussi scrunchie is very big thick and made of satin. The Gussi comb and hair clips are okay, don’t feel about the material it is made of. The Gussi accessories pouch is beautiful and can store so much. All the products has weird smell, didn’t like it much.
Overall i think this conditioner fulfill its purpose, i use it after shampooing my hair and it helps me with detangle it and it has a pleasant scent to it! I think that the packaging is cute but might be a little pricey for the amount of product! Gifted by gussihair

This comes in a nice pump bottle, has a light, pleasant odor, and does leave the hair clean, shiny, and smooth. The shampoo is thicker than many I use, which makes it easier to portion and put on the hair without the chance of losing drips on the way. It leaves my hair feeling smooth! Gifted by gussihair

I’ve got very frizzy hair, it’s really long and wavy so right now during these warmer months I get crazy frizz from humidity. This has really helped my hair to calm down, lay flat instead of frizzed and just looks overall shiny without looking greasy. I like that the second one you use is fairly light, it doesn’t feel like you’ve got much in your hair, that being said I like to leave it in and not rinse it as it suggests just because I have dry ends. I did receive this complimentary from gussihair for my honest opinion.
Hi Iseegs!

I received the Gussi Protection Upkeep Plan Conditioner gifted by the brand. This helps keep my hair strong and healthy and I love that it doesn't weigh down my natural wavy hair pattern. It really does feel like my hair is protected and I can immediately tell after using that my hair feels more healthy and looks shinier. I would recommend to others.

I have long hair that goes mid way down my back. I live in an area with high humidity so frizz is a big issue of mine. Hence my excitement to try this product. Unfortunately that was not the case after discovering the product arrived half empty. I would not recommend the At-Home Keratin Treatment Kit. Gifted by gussihair.
Hi there,
Thank you for reaching out to Gussi. Our product content is filled with 2.5 Fluid Ounces at stated on the bottle. The internal bottle size can hold up to 3.5 Fluid Ounces. The reason for this is to allow vigorous shaking of the product for full incorporation of ingredients. It may look like the bottle was not filled all the way but this is done so the product can be shaken well. Thank you for allowing us to educate you and others on any content questions.

Gifted by Gussi Hair This dual-ended hair comb is a very useful and well functional haircare tool to help make my daily hair styling routine a lot smoother than before. The fine teeth on one end of the comb helps distributing and detailing my hair in small segments easily and more evenly when styling. The other end of the comb, the teeth are large and wider and works perfectly well for separating and detangling my curly hair with ease! The Gussi Hair comb is well designed, very comfortable to hold as it is very lightweight and easy to flip side when I want to style my hair.

These Get A Grip sectioning hair clips are very good quality and something I'd recommend. I like that they have a matte finish and the packaging was nice as well. I recently dyed my hair and using these clips made it much easier to get clean, even sections gifted by gussihair.

Gussi's dual ended comb was the missing piece to my hair care collection. I usually use brushes but needed a fine tooth comb for their keratin treatment. The fine side is perfect for that! The comb itself is sturdy and perfect for travel due to its size. It is much easier to bring this with me everywhere to detangle those pesky knots! Gifted by gussihair.

I received this free product to test and review. This Smooth Operator Keratin Treatment by Gussi is simply amazing. It's very simple to use and takes about an hour to complete and the results are pure perfection. This upgraded treatment is so good. My hair is thick and tends to frizz, but after using this my strands are silky smooth and manageable. This lasts for up to six weeks and doesn't contain formaldehyde. My hair looks so much healthier. I would definitely purchase this product and highly recommend!

I often use hair clips to put sections of my hair away when I'm curling it or styling it. I used the Get A Grip 4 Sectioning Hair Clips to hold locks of hair out of the way when I was curling my hair and they are fantastic. They have really good hold and don't disturb the style of my hair. They are also easy to put in and don't pull hair when being taken out. I received these complimentary from gussihair.
