Ruined my hair..add me to the list.

I purchased this product a year and a half ago and my hair has never been like it was before I ruined it with this stuff. Just as other reviewers have mentioned, my hair is completely stripped.

No life, no moisture, no more bounce. It may work for some, but for others it completely destroys your hair and there is nothing that has reversed it. I've tried every conditioning treatment that is rated highly. I've spent thousands on trying different products and seeing different stylists.

This product has been my biggest hair regret. I wish there was something else I could do but I have ran out of ideas.

Complete Ripoff

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Bought a full sized moisturizing (kinky hair) system! So I spent the money. Got it for a patch the size of a quarter that was breaking and thinning. The stuff totally dried out the healthy natural curly hair I had and DESTROYED the hair remaining in the thin patch!!! All that after the very first use and carefully following all instructions. My hair became a tangled mess despite careful combing with a leave in and oil use. I'll be trying to get a refund.

Made my Hair Fall Out

I purchased the ovation cell therapy system (Shampoo, Cell Therapy, Conditioner) with hopes of simply thickening up my hair & making it better looking.Within the first 2 wks, my hair seemed fluffier and more manageable. However starting about week 4, my hair started TO FALL OUT IN CLUMPS!!

I was blaming everything else in my life then I realized it has to be this product because nothing else has changed. Hair was falling out with the "BULB still attached meaning it is viable, young shiny hair. Tons fell out in the shower, tons fell out after the shower while combing. Although the falling out phase has only been about 8-9 days it is TRAUMATIZING, and if it continues at this RATE, I will be bald in a month or so!!!!

Please DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. When I took it to the post office to ship it for a return- the man at the post office said "I know what this is: My Wife used it and her hair FELL OUT." I thought "WHAT THE ***?" He said she uses diff shampoo and conditioner and is "fine now". I hope and pray that the falling out phase will subside. This is truly scary...

I have always had medium texture, long length and considerably healthy hair my whole life. This is horrifying and truly disappointing. I have cried so much it is ridiculous.

I WILL COME BACK HERE IN A COUPLE WEEKS AND POST IF THE HAIR HAS STOPPED FALLING OUT OR NOT. :(

If your hair is still falling out 30 days after stopping use, it's probably not this product. Stop blaming the product.

Hair Falling out

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I bought ovation hair therapy trial size as my hair is very thin and doesn't grow very fast since I had my baby in June 2016. From the first time I used it, I began to notice that handfuls of my hair strands were coming out as I washed it and more when I brushed it out of the shower. I now have a spot in the back of my head where I barely have any hair there. I am so upset as this was supposed to help my hair not damage it more. I followed the directions and even tried not drying my hair and letting it air dry but my hair has become so brittle that it just breaks if I run my fingers through it. Very sad as I am only 31 years old. I want my hair back!

I am already experiencing hair loss and I bought this ovation system to help, but my hair is falling out too. It reminds me of the Wen care there was a lawsuit for women losing their hair.

Guest

But your hair does fall out after you have a baby for at least a year clumps and clumps of hair will fall out that's a natural normal thing so I wonder if it's from the the shampoo or the Ovation product or just because you had a baby

Ovation Hair Products - Hair Care Review

Hi. I too used Ovation a few years ago, and it caused my hair to become brittle and embarrassingly thin. My hair never came back no matter what I did to help it. I now wear wigs. During the use of the product, I had a weird and itchy scab on different areas of my scalp. I just assumed it was a scalp fungus, and treated it as such. Now I wonder if this product contributed to that as well. My hair was actually normal before, but Ovation took what hair I had and ruined it. I have bald spots, and it still sheds horribly. There should be a lawsuit against this company. People trusted this product to improve their hair not to permanently damage their hair and scalp. PLEASE DON'T USE OVATION--YOU WILL RUE THE DAY

Never buy ANYTHING unless you do research on the products, it doesn't matter who endorses it. Many people get paid lots of $$$$ to promote products so buyer beware and don't be a fool that's how they get you try using natural organic products but ALWAYS research don't believe everything you hear only half of what you see

Guest

yes go to the supermarket and get moisterizing shampoo and conditioner.. i recommend the suave infusion coconut essential oil moisterizing shampoo/conditioner.

dont go online anymore to purchase anything. you never know what you're going to get. so i have experiencced similar. i tested this ovation product.

it worked great in the testing facility that is. but when i purchased it online. it really sucked. did not make my hair soft and strong nor manageable at all.

just tangles galore! its the last thing i ever do is buy on internet.

Hair falling out and now rare skin cancer on head

I've been using Ovation Cell Therapy for about six months. My hair is beyond brittle and now falling out daily. I quit using it. In addition I started noticing bumps on my scalp. Just found out after biopsy a week ago that I have a very rare follicular aggressive skin cancer that is growing in the hair shaft and sweat gland. Right at the three points on my head where I used to put it on my scalp. I have to go in for Moh's surgery next week. Wondering if there is anyone else diagnosed with skin cancer on their scalp after using Ovation Cell Therapy. I would be interested in hearing about it.

I have been loosing weight and in the process I have had hair loss it is also with age too. I have been using Ovation hair therapy for a few months now and have noticed great results.

New hair coming in healthier and more manageable. I love it and have ordered my second set . Great product . Use it only 2 to 3 times a week as recommended , results are what they clam, but if you don't follow the recommended use then it will fail.

Would recommend to all my family and friends.

Thank you Ovation. I don't have an account to log in but I am not ashamed to ad my name to my post.

I have been useing the entire hair care line for 4 months now. My hair dresser noticed my hair longer and in good shape, my hair is usually trimmed every 5 was, I had it trimmed once since using ovation products.

I love it. My hair has not been this long in years. Love the product.

I threw all my other hair care products my daughters way. My hair is shinny thicker, and softer

Guest

Not really a comment more of a question. So does this product help hair to grow and help prevent hair loss or does it just strengthen the hair you already have??

Sorry I haven't read everything about the product... Was just curious!!

Scary Stuff

I bought the trial size set with shampoo, conditioner and cell therapy treatment. I've only used it twice (I wash every third day) and I'm freaking out! I had a handful of hair in the shower this morning. OMG, what is in this stuff? I'm supposed to get my hair colored tonight but there is no way I'm risking it. I don't know what that stuff did to my hair this morning. I didn't even leave it on as long as they recommend because I was in a hurry. Thank God! Is this some cruel joke? You decide to pay the extra money to make a positive difference in your appearance and the OPPOSITE thing happens. I wasn't expecting a miracle product, I ready the ingredients and the "science" behind it and it's supposed to be vitamins, minerals, etc. that bond to your hair and maybe penetrate a little into the hair shaft. I figured worse case scenario I overpaid for a high end shampoo. That wouldn't be the first time. It IS, however, the first time I had my hair fall out from anything I've used. Please do not try this product. I hope the effects are not long term from the 2 times I used it.

Did you have your hair stop falling out after you stopped using the product? I am experiencing the fist full of hair loss to-obviously will discontinue use but wondering what I can do else to stop further hair loss? & wondering how long it will still fall out after I stop using the product?

Guest

Thankfully, the hair loss stopped almost immediately after I stopped using the product. For a day or two after I had minimal loss - but more than normal!

Then it stopped. I think because I only used it a few times there was not a long lasting effect. I had been scheduled for hair color during that week and I decided to wait until I was sure the fallout was over. I think that was a good move.

I was terrified to put anything else on my hair. Good luck.

Send it the product back. They won't give a *** or apologize for what you went through but they will refund your money.

better shampoos and conditioners are in stores. I'll never buy over internet again.

Hair THINNED.

I have thickish, fine, straight hair. Laura Ingraham was constantly touting the benefits to Ovation. WRONG.

MY HAIR slowly became dry, brittle and I bag an seeing more of it in the drain.....NOT GOOD. Obviously, there is some element in the product which screwed up my hair follicles...and also caused knotting of the hair after it was washed and still wet! AWFUL.

I stopped using this product after 45 days. I began a regimen of B-complex vitamins recommended by my nutritionist, along with a HIGH quality multi-vitamin, high quality probiotic and took a supplement called Hair, Skin and Nails, and an anti-oxidant capsule, along with eating lots of dark green veggies, salmon. The product definitely caused the problem and now, after 6 months, hair is coming back to being my normal......

I am having a similar experience have been using cell therapy for two weeks my hair has become so brittle and dry. It gets knotted very easily and is falling out. What a waste of money and I was already self conscious about my hair.

Love Cell Therapy

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I tried ovation and really like it -not just the cell therapy but their color shampoo and conditioner too. I use it in the shower for like 5 minutes and really find it has helped me with less hair breaking off. it's not dry or brittle anymore. It smells great and is easy to work into my regular shower routine. The cell therapy seems to have proteins in it that have helped my hair become stronger. i think if people haven't liked the results of it, it probably is because they are over using it. Read the label and follow the instructions. you won't be disappointed. plus, even if you are, they have some crazy 365 day guarantee so return it.

Doesn't work.

After hearing all the hype via radio personalities on my favorite talk radio station (in fact, as I type this review, one of the commercials just came on the radio), I finally decided to splurge and give Ovation a try. At almost $100, it ain't cheap! I was excited to try these products - expecting wonderful results, however, my hair is dryer, my scalp itches and my hair gets very tangled - even right out of the shower after using the conditioner (I have long, fine hair), and instead of more voluminous hair, I experienced hair loss. I now have lots of split ends. I don't feel I've received any benefit from Ovation. Apparently it works for some people, but not me. I will most definitely be taking advantage of their money back guarantee!

The reason why so many complain about dry hair is because this product includes heavy protein to make the hair stronger. Anytime you use a strong protein product, a moisturizing deep conditioner should follow to replenish the moisture & combat the dryness that protein causes.

Too bad Ovation does not tell you this.

I learned this through researching, since it also made my hair dry. I no longer use this product because I now know what to do on my own to have stronger, healthier hair.

Guest

Liberals!

I heard the wonderful reviews on the radio. I was very disappointed with Ovation.

It made my hair very dry.

Every time I here the commercials, I wonder if they are lying or if I'm completely crazy.. At $100 a sucker, and they get 500,000 suckers buying this ***, they will make a ton of money and nobody will ever here from Ovation again.

Guest

I've heard great things from a radio personality also, in which made me decide to get the product. I've used it 2 times because the first time my hair had so many issues, that I thougt it came from blow drying thereafter.

Well, the second time was no better.

I'm just going to stick with what I know. Whatever I get at the store that cleans and condition my hair for less.
