My experience only: I have natural blonde fine hair-straight. I have been using the Secret Weapon FRIZZ EASE for about a month and it is nice, not gummy and it does help my dry ends a bit also has a sun screen and cones...then I found SHEER BLONDE dream cream and must say this is a very nice cream and instantly adds moisture to my hair but doesn't drag it down in any wayyou can apply it thoughout the day if you want to...i must add that it does contain trimethicone as the 4th ingredient...it does a wonderful job of taming flyaways adding shine and manageabality and making my hair look shiny.about $4.00 at Walmart
