Do Ted Gibson Hair Sheets Really Work?

by thebeautybrains on June 2, 2009 · 11 comments

DeAnn’s disinterested…I saw Ted Gibson Styling Hairsheets and figured it’s kind of worthless product. What do the Beauty Brains say: gimmick or goody? paul-rudd-naked-sheets-thumb

The Right Brain responds:
Normally I wouldn’t give a “sheet” about a product like this, but after doing a little research I’m going to say that while hair sheets might be a gimmick, it’s not necessarily a bad one.

Ted Gibson Hair Sheets

For those of you who aren’t familiar with this product, it’s towelette designed to be used as “on the go” touch up conditioner. It consists of a non-woven fabric towelette saturated with a water based solution of the several conditioning ingredients including: Hydrolyzed Collagen, Cetrimonium Chloride, Amodimethicone/Cetrimoniumcholride, and Steartrimonium Chloride. It’s essentially like a dilute leave in conditioner.

Are they worth it?

At $25 for 10. it seems very steep. If you have the need for a travel product or like to touch up your fly aways during the day, then this product will certainly deliver this kind of functionality. Whether or not it’s worth the money is up to you to decide. We don’t mind paying more for products that really work and these Ted Gibson Styling Hairsheets certainly stand out in the market as a unique way to deliver conditioning.

The Beauty Brains bottom line

This product doesn’t claim to do anything that it can’t technically deliver. Maybe sometimes it’s worth paying more for a specialty product that offers an added benefit in the form of portability or convenience. We’d put Ted Gibson Hair sheets in that category. (But it’s still kind of pricey!)

What do YOU think? Do you need on the go conditioning and would you pay more to get it? Or do you have any DIY tricks to more your conditioner more portable? Leave a comment for the rest of the Beauty Brains community.

There are alot of leave-in-conditioners in convenient sized bottles that would do the same for alot less (The Body Shop’s Amlika Leave in Conditioner comes to mind)…

I would rather carry a few ounces of leave-in conditioner with me. I have very curly hair and rubbing the sheets all over my head would probably make me look a mess!

Being that I seem to have a scalp prone to getting extra oily – I HAVE to wash my hair every single day – I wouldn’t bother with these. Now if he invented something that would help keep my hair from getting greasy within 24 hours so I could skip a day like normal women I’d buy it instantly.

Interesting concept… but if you can’t bring a liquid along, I’ve come across several “solid conditioner” bars that would probably function as well or better if you wet them a little and smooth it over your hair. (Better for me — these sheets are full of protein, which my hair hates, and silicones that I’d rather skip!)

Kind of like using dryer softener sheets instead of the liquid in the wash!
