It’s no Wonder Water. I bought this Drybar Liquid Glass Instant Glossing Rinse so that I could see if it smelled better than Wonder Water and worked the same. The formulas seem similar: both of them coat your hair with a polymer to make it shiny and smooth.
Guess what? Drybar Liquid Glass smells amazing. Like a vanilla-patchouli-cedar, but very light on the vanilla. Just a bit of sweetness from it and it’s so much of an improvement from the Wonder Water, which probably doesn’t bother me as much as it bothers some of you, but it doesn’t really smell great.
The Liquid Glass is $44 for 236mL, Wonder Water is usually around $10 for 200mL so year, the Wonder Water is way cheaper, but it’s good to know what the other options are if you’re sick of how it smells. It might be my bias, but I STILL think that the Wonder Water works the best when it comes to smoothing your hair and making it look flawless. Blowouts seem to be smoother and last longer, and in terms of consistency, the Drybar product is a little thicker.
