Used it for the first time yesterday and a 100% improvement on my hair when I got out. No tangles. Followed up with conditioner. Good bottles. The lid fits and is secure, so can be carried in bags easily. The cream is pretty thick so you don't need loads and loads. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smells Amazing but Expensive *by M***S on 12 August 2019* Great product, smells like Bakewell Tarts. Hair much less dry from using it, though in combination with hair masks and leave in conditioner sprays. For the price it just will not last that long, probably 10 uses max for my long hair- so expensive. Would buy again if cheaper. ## Frequently Bought Together - AquaGuard Pre-Swim Hair Defense | Prevents Chlorine Damage, Softens Hair | Color Safe, Leaves Hair Smelling Great | 5.3 oz (1 Pack) - Ultra Swim Chlorine Removal & Hard Water Treatment Moisturizing Shampoo, 7 Ounce - SoCozy Swim Leave In Conditioner Spray & Treatment for Kids Hair (8 Fl Oz) Protects & Repairs Pool, Sun & Salt Damaged Hair, Gentle Formula with Activated Charcoal, Vitamin B5 & Sunflower Seed Extract --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/51458956-aqua-guard-pre-swim-hair-defense-prevents-chlorine-damage-softens](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/51458956-aqua-guard-pre-swim-hair-defense-prevents-chlorine-damage-softens) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-08*
