During his childhood, Rene Furterer became familiar with the beneficial therapeutic and aromatic properties found in certain plants and essential oils. Now an adult and a hair stylist, Rene undertook the task of researching the effects of essential oils and plant extracts on different types of hair: color treated, bleached and otherwise damaged. Rene Furterer created a line of hair care products that treated both the scalp and the hair. The hair care method that Rene Furterer created was based on essential oils and plant extracts. The treatment formulas are said to be specially formulated to produce visible “immediate results”.
Product Details
Some of the products in the hair care line include Complex 5 Regenerating Concentrate which is said to cleanse, tone, and prepare the scalp by activating its micro-circulation. Tonucia Toning and Densifying Mask have been formulated to strengthen and densify fine, limp hair. Rene Furterer Shampoo is made to gently balance, cleanse and provide softness, brightness and radiance to the hair and naturally balance the scalp as well. Okara Protect Hair Color Protectant Radiance Shampoo, promoted to protect the color treated hair as an anti-color washout formula, is meant to address the challenge of retaining one’s hair color for longer.
The Good
- The products are available online through various retailers and at many salon locations around the world.
- Rene Furterer hair products contain essential oils and plant extracts.
The Bad
- Rene Furterer products cannot be purchased online directly from the manufacturer.
- The official website for Rene Furterer products does not contain customer testimonials or before & after photos to demonstrate product effectiveness.
- No free trial offers are offered from Rene Furterer.
- There is no clinical research published on the website for Rene Furterer products to substantiate claims made about the products.
The Bottom Line
Although the Rene Furterer website is very professional and offers educational information to online shoppers, it is lacking in providing the clinical research for the products and an ordering feature. The site also fails to post customer testimonials and does not offer a free trial for any of the products. The full list of ingredients are undisclosed, so many of the elements may be irritating to those with sensitive scalps. Some consumers may want to try Rene Furterer products because of the online presence as well as the presence of the products in many retail locations and salons worldwide. It would be helpful if the official website would publish its clinical research to substantiate their claims. Customer testimonials, as well as before and after photos, of those who have tried the products with positive results should be posted. At this time it appears that Rene Furterer products do not carry a money back guarantee.
My stylist recommended Rene Furterer products a few years ago when the salon she worked at sold them. I’m happy they’re available online now. The packaging can be frustrating/difficult to open and some don’t like the scent (it’s very “earthy” or herbal). However, I love the scent and my hair feels and looks it’s best when I use these products. I’m 48 and my hair has a dry, curly top layer and a straight bottom layer.
